    Agreed. The team has shown they're ready to run with the big dogs. Let 'em sit from here on out.

    I guess so, those are two pretty big pieces to be missing.

    If you're just going to take a knee anyway... why not run that one out with Trindon?

    Not to be an excuse maker for the shoddy play of the D but:

    <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p>Phillips: we will run our base defense. Nothing elaborate to scheme, wants to see 1-on-1 coverage by CB's, 1-on-1 pass rushing.</p>&mdash; Houston Texans (@HoustonTexans) <a href="https://twitter.com/HoustonTexans/status/238349070987567104" data-datetime="2012-08-22T18:57:01+00:00">August 22, 2012</a></blockquote>

    I wonder if that was Trindon's decision to take a knee.

    Man, will these two announcers SHUT UP ABOUT JIMMY GRAHAM? I had enough of Simms went he started whining about how bad the suspensions were and that the players didn't deserve it for Bountygate. Just shut up!

    Coverage sans Graham is good, 1 on 1 pass rushing, not so hot, and also Bradie is disappointing me. He might be like a coach with his knowledge of this defense, but I don't see the push like we did with Dobbins
