NFL: Week Seven – San Francisco 49ers vs. Houston Texans
This was another tale of two halves as the Texans ran out to a 21-0 halftime lead only to see the Niners battle back outscoring the Texans 21-3 in the second half. Matt Schaub completed 20 of 30 passes for a pair of touchdowns and Steve Slaton scored two touchdowns of his own in leading the Texans to their second straight win and third in four games. The big story coming out of this game, however, is Alex Smith.

NFL Camp Preview: New England Patriots
The Patriots were able to go 11-5 last season despite losing Tom Brady the first week of the season. The fact that the Patriots were able to scramble to 11 wins last season is just a testament to how good of an organization New England and how good of a coach Bill Belichick is. Most teams would have folded once they found out that their starting quarterback was about to be a former 7th round draft pick who had not started a game since his senior year in high school.
