Bobby is still mad about Cam beating the breaks off Alabama... Alabama fans will forever be biased when it comes to Cam. He'd rather have Fitzpatrick...
As the #1 pick, a healthy JC should be expected to be an impact pass rusher especially with Watt attracting so much attention. As lousy as our QB situation is, a fair share of our opponents had major pass protection issues the past season, and have their own instability at the QB position.

Not that it's relevant to anything Texans related, but I remember hearing rumors like that, perhaps I was mistaken, either way who cares? If he matters so much to you simply change your name to "Minnesota_DieHard" and move on to an appropriate board.
perhaps you lied? one thing about lying is... one lie leads to another; in which leads to another, etc.... it's a vicious cycle. i sniffed you out boy. woof woof.
If we're healthy, I wouldn't even blink on taking the over on the Vegas line of 9. But the situation may not be conducive for sacks. Last year, opponents only threw 484 times against us, or the LEAST in the entire NFL. In comparison, in the previous year, they threw 581 times. If we're ahead and teams are trying to play catch up, Clowney will be a monster. But but if we're constantly behind and teams are just running on us like they did last year, then Clowney's not getting to the QB no matter how good he becomes. More important than sacks is the fact that Clowney seems to have no trouble getting into the backfield. Whether they result in sacks or TFL or hurries, that depends on the defense as a whole.
The Vegas line is 7.5 last I checked. If you believe in them that much, fire. Particularly if you think you'd fire over on a line of 9. That's good value for you. I wouldn't make that bet, but I'm certainly not right all the time or even often
