    b/c every game he plays, even if ineffective, is a learning experience.

    Every game is learning experience...games he's not playing in.

    Can we all agree he is injury prone and not contributed at all this season?

    Let's hope he does something next year... or atleast have more tackles than games missed.

    I stand behind this. I really hope he redeems himself next year.

    Let's hope Clowney does something next year.

    Let's hope Andre finds the fountain of youth.

    Let's hope Cushing does the same.

    Let's hope Duane Brown goes back to playing at a Pro Bowl level.

    Let's hope Suafilo figures out how to play in the big leagues.

    Let's hope we draft a serviceable QB.

    Let's hope we finally address the ILB position.

    Let's hope the TEs do something next year.

    Let's hope we figure out who Jjos replacement is going to be.

    Texans. Where hope happens.

    Clowney is amazing. It only took him Week 8 of his rookie season to confirm every red flag he had. Amazing talent.

    His book isn't written yet, but wow.... only way things could be worse is if he suffers a career ending injury before season's end.

    Still think we should pull a Trent Richardson with him.

    I get the comparison to D Rose, but the thing is Rose actually produced something before his injuries shut him down.

    And... Watkins, Evans, OBJ, Donald, and there was a few offensive linemen as well. Over 10 promising players and the Texans walk away with Clowney. Could have had one of them and Buffalo's 1st round pick in next year's draft (two 2015 1st round draft picks to move up for Winston)... Oh well.

    My father works for the Methodist hospital system as an anesthesiologist, and he told me Clowney is not healthy. He said he talked to the doctor that operated on Clowney's knee and that the knee is already severely arthritic. Maybe he's another Mario, maybe he will recover, but I think this knee is something that is going to affect him his whole career

    no relief from the 1st round pick, 2nd round pick, 3rd round pick, 4th round pick, 5th round pick.
    feels like the football gods gave us the freaking death penalty SMU style.

    Be careful... you could be implicating your father (and the ortho doctor) in a HIPPA violation.

    He's Oden and Mike Evans might be Durant.

    Dr. Kenneth First who weekly comes on 610am brought up that it is worrisome if Clowney is still having soreness and is unable to play during week 8. He said after week 6 he should have been healed and feeling no pain in the knee. Also, if he had swelling and fluid buildup there could have been complications with the surgery or some other type of issue.

    May just need to scope him and put him on the shelf the rest of the season. Time for a Clowney 2015 Tribute Tread.

    Wow. None of this sounds positive. The 14 draft by the Texans could be the worse draft in history. Worse than 13. At least we have Savage. Almost a 30 year old rookie. This is quite comical. It really is.
