I know that Sage fumbled twice and the Colts converted both to scores but why was he trying to pass either time? They had a 17 point lead and Rosenfelds opts to scramble on a busted pass play and fumbles - Colts recover and run it in for a score. Colts Manning drives quickly for another TD and then with only a couple of minutes left and still with a 3 point lead - the coach calls for a pass play and Rosenfelds gets the ball knocked out of his hands and the Colts score a couple of plays later for the win. My point is that the coach called those pass plays when simply running the ball and the clock down probably would have made the win for the Texans. My opinion - the coach had more to do with the loss than the fumbles. Bad play calling!

I agree with you guys and was very disappointed when the coach refused to accept any responsibility for play calling in the loss. He too blamed the quarterback in "trying to do too much." Calling for pass plays when your trying to run out the clock and protect a 17 point lead is stupid. Blame the coach for the loss more than the fumbles.

I watched the game and couldn't believe how fast it went down hill. It seems they just can't catch a break. My Cowboys won though.
