    Not good:

    This is how to not make a good impression in the month off before training camp.

    Via Tania Ganguli of ESPN.com, Texans rookie defensive lineman Brandon Ivory was arrested on first degree burglary charges.

    Ivory, who went to Alabama, was arrested in Tuscaloosa this morning. According to the police report, he and another man broke into a residence by kicking in the back door, one carrying an assault rife. After assaulting one person, they took cash and two iPads before fleeing in a 2003 Toyota Corolla.

    He was signed as an undrafted rookie this year.

    And because he occupies one of the lowest rungs on the organizational ladder, it’s easy to imagine his stint with the team might not be a long one.

    Yup, might as well start calling him "former Texans undrafted rookie"

    Watt is an attention ho, just the facts. I didn't say it bothered me. JJ is living life, more power to him. I don't think anything will stand in his way of being defensive player of the year for the next five years.

    Exactly, I'm pretty sure they're very supportive and getting a nice chuckle. Some posters are too darn serious around here. Lighten up people he's just having fun.

    I can't believe I'm saying this as I am the biggest anti tank guy you can find but christian hackenberg could be the next great QB, the guy has potential and I wouldn't mind seeing him in the deep steel blue.

    He's a tough guy to evaluate. He has the tools but not the production. Not entirely his fault, Penn State has had OLine issues. But it's hard to put a lot of trust in a guy who hasn't put it all together at the college level yet.

    He looked like ish against Ohio State. I don't see him as a sure thing like Luck. Not tank worthy for sure. That's laughable.

    How many QBs are there next year that could have first round talent? Is it realistic Hackenberg could slip to the Texans even if they make the playoffs?

    I don't ever see this team tanking under Bill O'Brien's leadership.

    Maybe 3 or 4? Hackenberg. Connor Cook. Cardale Jones. Jared Goff?

    Props to JJ. He becomes the first defensive player to be ranked #1 (previous high was Ray Lewis '11 ranking 5th). What an outstanding talent!! Would've gotten MVP had Houston made the playoffs. His job should be easier this season with the additional talent around him and everyone getting more comfortable with Crennel's system. With another DPOY, 20+ sacks, and possibly MVP, Watt will continue to make history. Team success first, but congrats to JJ!!
