    Good. I haven't seen as much as they rave about Mohammed for instance but I'm not on every website and every twitter feed.

    That would make a good drinking game. Drink every time BOB says any conjugation of the word 'compete' during a press conference.

    Which one would you go with for a Foster replacement? I would be down with Fred Jackson, Kendal Hunter, or Dunbar.

    that's being a true teammate, a leader and just out competing at a competitor level. i've seen enough, he should start.

    Mallet is a genius he's getting in good with the teams biggest stars. He stays after practice to throw to J.J and he's building chemistry with the receivers. He seems to be a good leader, plus he's got a rocket arm. Might as well make him the starter

    Bill Barnwell is not quite as optimistic about the Texans with Foster injured. The bright spot is that Blue really can't be worse than he was overall last year running the ball and hopefully we will start seeing improvement in his ability to read defenses. I think the article does underscore that watching the backs is just as vital as watching the QBs now.

    When Rick Smith talks about sua filo. It really pisses me off. 2nd round pick but acts like he's not ready. Needs to keep working etc.
