    I hope this lasts the rest of the season. And longer.


    It's about time. It looked like someone turned a switch on with the offense once a competent QB came in.


    Someone pelase make a Photoshop of O'Brien in a Santa suit with Tom Savage poking his head out of Santa's bag.

    It literally looked like someone flipped a switch with the offense when Savage came into the game. Huge shot in the arm.

    Savage threw 3 passes and bested Brock's 11 passes. The offense has doubled it's yards, based off what Osweiler had, in just two drives. Osweiler had I think four drives.

    still no td. anyway, osweiler will probably play the rest of the game. i wouldn't be surprised if bo'b does this to avoid a media circus.

    If Savage leads us to a win, it should be the day Rick Smith loses his job for handicapping the team by allowing Savage to go to IR last year, leading the to Osweiler signing.

    He can make reads, throw accurately and buy time in the pocket

    Same crap happened last year with Hoyer, benched restart, benched restart..Just because it looks like a duck and walks like a duck, Billy has to hear it quack before he believes its a duck

    I hear Tony Romo might be available in the off-season.

    I'm legit impressed with Savage

    But I'm not sure if that's just because I've been watching the awful Brock all year

    Hopefully Assweiler has played his last game as a Texan.

    Can we just start calling Savage, "The Macho Man?" Or just "Mach?"

    So much THIS. For the life of me I don't understand why Rick Smith is still around. Just look at his most recent draft and free agency signings for crying out loud. And he should have been gone well before that!

    I supported Brock as long as I could and have been cold for last three weeks.

    There was a noticeable difference this game when Savage was playing.
