    I don't get their fascination with Brandon fu**in Weeden.

    He has great arm strength and is familiar with the system, but other than that what else can you benefit from?... if Deshaun were to go down with an injury.

    The more things change, The more they stay the same.

    I wouldn't mind Weeden if BOB could adapt to two different styles. He can't/won't

    They couldn't find anyone younger or who can kinda run the Watsons playbook?

    Sometimes you just want to shake your head in wonderment. I was hoping for someone younger, with more mobility.

    They signed Weeden last year and cut him before the season started. This signing doesn't mean he enters the season as the #2. You want at least 3 QBs in preseason. Deshaun probably won't be ready for OTAs, so Weeden provides another arm for practices.

    Where is RG3? That would make more sense than spending money on this bum.

    Solid choice, you pick a cheap vet backup who can work almost as an additional QB coach and the Texans probably draft a 3rd stringer.

    Some one needs to save Deshaun from himself. First he says BOB is his coach, now this.

    What, in your opinion, was wrong about Watson being happy Weeden is back?

    Good pickup but still need to get a similar QB in camp Weeden can be a big help as a QB coach.

    He's on the roster so they aren't compelled to reach for one in the draft, imo.

    Better to not look desperate, especially when you are.
