    Latest I saw was cancelled due to the roof being heavily damaged on Reliant Stadium

    That is what reports from Houston are saying

    Yeah, looks like the stadium is a no-go. Damage doesn't really seem that severe, as it is mostly to pieces of a retractable roof, but I imagine a few engineers will have to look over the place and give it an ok first, which is unlikely to happen in time.

    If they do not play somewhere Monday, which I imagine the NFL will decide in the next 24 hrs, then there is little option on what to do.

    The Texans' bye week (Oct. 26) is a possibility. The Texans and Bengals have the same bye week. The Ravens' bye week is Nov. 9. The Texans host the Bengals on Nov. 9. The Texans could host the Bengals on Oct. 26 and the Ravens on Nov. 9.

    I can't imagine this game being canceled forever would affect very many fantasy football teams.image

    In the league this board has going on it could be very important. Not for me, but with 16 teams in the league every player is important

    I was just teasing a bit, it actually causes me problems too as I have Andre Johnson and little depth at receiver. Guess I'll have to give Justin Gage a go, might work since Vince is out.

    The owner of the Texans says there's no way a game can be played in the stadium. Now they are looking at possibly the louisana superdome or rice stadium to play the game

    Excellent work MeteoriteGuy. I imagine that's exactly what they'll do.
