    Is it just me or does Cushing look like he's an average player

    That's why you play to the whistle. You see everyone running towards the ball and you are walking like like nothing is going on. That's the difference between some players. They put it all on the line even if they think it's an incomplete case on the off chance it was a fumble.

    Instead he thinks the opposite.

    Problem we see too much of this . . . .this kind of laize faire attitude

    Kareen jumps to AVOID contact with the receive that catches the ball and lays on the ground

    Receivers catch passes uncontested in front of players

    All position groups had great moments and embarrassing moments.

    DBacks had great coverage on some plays plus an interception but were horrible on TY Hilton's touchdown.
    Andre had that touchdown catch plus some other catches but the fumble and PI call were pretty bad.
    Arian was great running the ball but had had some pass coverage dud moments

    He looks even worse than just average. He's missing a lot of tackles.

    injuries + he's no longer juiced up on PEDs.

    Yeah he's slower, weaker, probably doesn't have roid rage which is helpful on the field.

    I have been trying to avoid this conclusion but it certainly looks that way to me as well. Last night, there were a couple of times he had a clear path to Luck but he looked like he was running through sand. He really misses those female hormones...

    Of course he is not the same it normally takes a full year to recover .

    He wasn't that good last year before his injury....

    And did you see him when J.J. got the fumble...??? He couldn't even run down the field to help block...

    We'll see what they are saying 6 or 7 days from now, if it's still 50/50, then I'll buy it.

    That's a great point Baller, and he may not even really be in football shape. I just believe he will never be the same.... Just my opinion though.

    Maybe we can point to the fact that it was a Thursday night game and he hasn't had enough time to recoup as well...???

    Maybe they saw this coming with Cushing...
    from website

    Cushing, who has been suspended for violating the NFL's policy on performance enhancing drugs in the past and who is coming off season-ending surgery, will make $10.149 million this season, including a $9 million signing bonus, and his $2 million salary for 2014 is guaranteed for skill, injury and cap purposes.

    Beyond that, however, the Texans have the option to basically bring him along year by year, and they can get out of the deal without significant drawbacks for purposes of skill or cap. Cushing's $6 million option bonus in 2014 is not guaranteed and if the Texans do not exercise it, then a future year of his deal becomes guaranteed for $6 million -- but for injury only, so the team still has the ability to let him go for other reasons if need be.

    we need some defensive backs from stanford! our dbs make to0 many 'miscommunication' plays. Any 6'2 straight out of compton with high gpa prospect available?

    as for cushing, he is coming along but even his mic'd segments seem like they're on anti depressant. someone needs to make him bleed so he can bring on the ruckus!

    we have no other choice but to go 10-0 in the next 10 games.

    The whole defense was missing tackles not just Cushing. I still think they should blitz Cushing more often. He is more disruptive when he is let loose. Yes, every now and then he'll miss a tackle or two. It looks like they have Swearinger playing in the position Cushing used to play
