    Exactly!

    Be careful saying that around here.

    What Charles did wasn't against the rules.

    Wish Cushing a speedy recovery and hoping he'll come back stronger for next season.


    Sucks he is out for the rest of this season but not like we got much to look forward to this year

    well, that i disagree with.

    i still enjoy watching watt, keenum, nuk, and 80 play.

    hopefully keenum continues to develop, but i randy harvey wrote that kubiak said schaub is still the starter once he is healthy. so that train wreck will be entertaining as well.

    Don't see anything wrong with Charles' block. Unlike the Jets play, he wasn't blindsided. Just an unfortunate incident

    Htown_diehard, no one else has the balls to say it but ur right. Keep posting. Shaub or Cushing should have never received the contracts they were handed. Ur right for the wrong reasons, donnymost and co are wrong for the right reasons, simple as that.
    Btw, Cushing is injury prone, how can someone say its different cause its a freak accident? That's the dumbest thing I read today. Plus, no one talking about how we most likely beat Seattle if he doesn't miss 2nd half. Cushing is injury prone and his renegotiated contract should reflect that.

    Neither was the roughing the passer penalty that Denver got late in the game. The league wants to protect the QB and receivers but have no rule in place to protect the defensive players.

    i hope they make cuts illegal or change the rulle so that guys throwing cuts can only go to the ground to become hurdles and not target the legs of players.. zbs be damned..

    If they did change the rule, then that would render Gary useless and we would get a new coach...

    Change the rule! So we can get rid of Gary! And for player safety, too, of course.

    Does that mean he will be back in time to play in Hawaii?

    They really need to make it completely illegal inside the tacklebox. When you cutblock there, the defender has less room and ways to avoid the block.

    All kidding aside this is great news for the Texans long term investment in Cush.

    cushing was not playing well and the capper was the hit out of bounds last week for the personal foul. it was pathetic. I know he had the nice interception of rivers but that's all.

    he clearly didn't have his explosiveness. I'm not arguing about the contract, he was not the same player
