No mention of any injury in anything that I've seen; and, of course, it is all over the Houston media.

"Kubiak surely understood that his sending out punter Matt Turk instead of Rackers might be misinterpreted, but head coaches are paid a lot money to make those kinds of decisions. Kubiak said he went 'with my gut' and he wound up looking like a genius."

"There was 'a little breeze' coming that way" Kubiak said. "If you miss that they've got to go 20 yards to beat us. I felt good about our defense. I thought they'd made a few nice stops in the quarter. It's one of those things that just worked out, it's not good, but it worked out."

Well, Gary, it didn't just work out. One, if you miss they get the ball on the 42 and have to drive 30 yards for the same opportunity you just declined.

Your idea was to pin them deep and for the defense to hold them. The Texans did neither -- the punt went into the end zone and they drove to your 34.

I love the newspaper quote: "Gary said "he went with his gut" and wound up looking like a genius." Say what?

I like Kubiak, I like the Texans. This was a bonehead call and they got lucky to win despite it.
