That's what I'm hoping for. Did he even make on the field vs. New Orleans? 0 catches in 3 preseason games. We spent a 3rd round pick on the guy. You have to assume he's making the team if only because of that. It would be nice to see SOMETHING out of him in the preseason.
Kubiak says Lestar and Martin will start but Posey will play the majority because he needs to "catch up"...
I am going to watch the Colts/Bengals. Andrew Luck will be starting and play for at least a quarter. The line is -3 Indy, go get it, you are welcome.
Probably last chance for Keenum to do something noteworthy. He won't have a lot to work with and if the line is as porous as it was for Yates, he may be running for his life. I wish him well.
Here's the latest Posey rookie diary. He confirms that he'll play a lot on Thursday. http://www.houstontexans.com/news/a...ke-plays/46199b2d-318b-4849-a0f7-d724bcfb0adb If you haven't read the other installments of his diary, just click on the link and scroll down to find them.
A problem with making money? Preseason is actually easier to predict in many cases, but I wouldn't expect you to know that. For the record I am 11-1 so far this year. You don't have to heed my advice, but no reason to assume that I have some kind of "problem".
I hope he gets a few catches. At this point I have to think he may be a bust. I know he didn't play last year and has been a little slow to pick things up, but he should have done at least a little something by now.
I do wish the NFL would switch to only selling one (#2 or #3) preseason game to ticket holders and have the first and final preseason games take place in neutral non-NFL cities like San Antonio, Toronto*, Mexico City, Columbus, etc. Unfortunately, the owners LOVE that they can shove two preseason games down the season ticket holders' throats. They make more money that way, so it's not changing. Way too early for that. Most expected him to be a non-contributor this year, especially with Martin and Jean being so likely to step in right away and Johnson and Walter entrenched as starters. It's my assumption that a year from now, Walter will be gone and Posey will be jockeying with Jean for the #2 spot. You have to keep in mind that Kubiak is not a coach that just sends his wideouts deep on fly routes and posts. He expects them to be sharp blockers in his run game, something that takes time for them to learn. Am I especially high on Posey? No. But we didn't draft him to be a big play creater.
I don't think they expected him to be that guy this year, but I do think that they expect him to become a pretty big weapon long term since they did spend a 3rd on him after all, which many considered to be kind of high for him
Anybody else have dish? It's only on the guide from 6:00-7:00?!? Please tell me they aren't goint to switch to the convention... Does anyone know if this is just a snafu on the guide... or is the feed switching to an auxiliary channel? I'll be uber pissed if I can't watch dudes that won't make the team slug it out in an ugly penalty filled contest for 3 1/2 to 4 hours!

Can't find the game on DirecTV in Austin. Local news.... Maybe the Texans should take KVUE off the affiliates list.
