    I'm just not a fan of dirty players like that. Hard hitters is one thing, dirty players is another.

    Kirk Cousins for a second rounder to me is worth it.

    This is troubling. I thought Andre Brown would contribute but he didn't even get a snap, granted there were only 46 snaps. Not sure how he can be in BOB's doghouse already. Hopefully he will have a chance to prove his talent on the field in helmet and full pads to show he can contribute or not. Not sure why a coach would cast away a guy with obvious talent before seeing him compete in a helmet and full pads in a live action game.

    I worry there will be BOB guys and not BOB guys with no explanation as to why BOB doesn't like a certain guy. Your telling me Ronnie Brown is better than Andre Brown at this point in their careers if both are fully healthy?

    Because running back is where the Texans had the most problems. The only reason for Brown to be in the doghouse is if he can't handle blitz pickup. Given the sieve like tendencies of the O-Line on Saturday, Fitz needs all the protection he can get.

    There were so many good running backs in this draft... Washington got Seastrunk in the 6th round. When that dude runs it looks like someone is pressing the fast forward button.


    Best reality show there is as far as I'm concerned. Wish the Texans were practicing against them this week so they could get a lil more burn on the show.

    Lol, I guess they figure all will be well when Joseph gets back. I got news for em JJo gets burned as much as anybody. We need help in a bad way and why does this DB coach still have a job?

    When JJo is healthy, he can shut people down.

    Adding two pro-bowl caliber players to the defense will only help.

    I don't think that's true any longer. Two years ago, yes.

    I'm ready to see another game. Saturday night was so sad. Only thing I enjoyed was seeing Watt and Clowney out there on defense at the same time.

    So unless they bring in somebody else, that means our RB corp is pretty much set, right? Foster, Grimes, Blue.
