    The exact same look LeBron had in his eye when his team lost him the series in Boston the year before he left. Look of defeat, desolation, despair. Walked by himself on the sideline completely away from the team. Didn't try to do anything during the Texans' last futile drive.

    Now the difference is:
    Foster doesn't call it quits. Foster won't ditch his team. Foster won't let this tarnish his drive. Instead of giving up, I think this just lit a new fire in him.
    I think he'll be back next season. Hopefully.

    I saw that too, kinda concerning....but I think Foster is a different style than typical and there was no doubt he wanted to keep going more than anything.

    He left it all out there as much as he could . . .set a NFL record for most rushing yards by a RB in the first 2 playoff games. - Foster needs to get paid. He is starting to become the MVP of this team, and probably the main reason (besides the defense) we were in the game till the end...

    It's just so disheartening for everyone. . .

    Hopefully we draft Case Keenum just in case Schaub goes down again.

    There is no way he plays for another team next year.

    McNair will make sure of that.

    Foster is a competetor. Unlike LeBum.

    But I hope he comes back next year. If he doesnt, we're screwed. We gotta pay him alot of money and also Mario Williams

    Foster is a RESTRICTED free agent. Sure, he could hold out all he wants, but if the Texans want to keep him, he can't go anywhere.

    Gary Kubiak can create another Arian Foster just like Vince Mcmahon created another Hulk Hogan. :) :p

    I know why he looked defeated... ****ing Kubiak. The guy has been carrying us all game in both the run and pass... and when the 4th quarter comes, Gary just abandons the run and short passes, why? Somebody answer why Gary kept trying to hit the home run with TJ Yates while our only down 1 TD and your defense is holding them all game and you have timeouts... somebody... anybody?

    Kinda got chill bumps watching him walk the sidelines by himself! You could see the fire and desire burning in his eyes! Dude already has a chip on his shoulder from not being drafted, now he is gonna do everything in his power to be a Champion! He will be in Beast Mode all year next year!

    I think he proved today he's legit...i know he's been legit for two seasons, but the playoffs is a whole different level. A true franchise player. Show him the money!

    I thought his look was more of "god damn I want to comeback next year and win it all".
