    themselves?

    If the texans lose 2 more games. . . then sit Mario the rest of the season
    imperative you start next year with as many healthy bodies as possible.

    It looked like it, he was been contained by a 2nd year offensive lineman.

    He's been listed as "Probable-Groin" most of the season (since the 2nd or 3rd game I think).

    http://www.nfl.com/teams/houstontexans/injuries?team=HOU

    EDIT: He was listed as "probable - groin" for the first 5 weeks and then again from week 10 on. He was also listed one each for "shoulder" and "hip".

    Can he ever stay healthy? He never misses time, but he's always playing through some type of injury that's 'the reason' for him not completely dominating.

    Are you talking about your own injury report?

    If so, then no the NFL cannot fine anyone based on your injury report. No matter how many times you mail it to them.

    Seriously, it's always something. Plantar fasciitis his rookie year, the shoulder last year, now the groin.....when are we EVER going to see Mario at his finest?? I'm sick of always having to make excuses for this team. I'm not blaming Mario for having legitimate injuries, it's just frustrating as a fan to have to keep sitting through this year after year with our players. And our medical staff is just following the lead of our front office in terms of being inept and misleading all at the same time.

    Lol...haters gonna hate, and people will believe just want they want to believe. Do you really think it's one big conspiracy constructed by Kubiak and co. that trickles all the way down to the medical staff and the PR? It's been stated he's been on the injury report throughout most of the season and that there were public reports he had a groin issue before the season even started. Did they decide way back then that they needed to make an excuse for Mario's consistent "vanishing acts"? Those "vanishing acts" are holding him back to only these kind of stats (the sack numbers are slightly off I believe)....

    Pulled that right off a great article explaining the injury on battleredblog

    http://www.battleredblog.com/2010/12/3/1853827/the-truth-about-mario-williams-2010-season#storyjump

    Let's just say for one second you actually believe the "fictitious" report that he is injured, he is not only producing those numbers with a pretty severe injury but with only one other truly effective lineman (Antonio), and an inexperienced/not talented secondary (the lack of talent I speak of is Eugene Wilson and Brice McCain, I believe in the others).

    But yea I agree with you Mario has disappeared sometimes this year, but I actually believe that he is/has been injured (an absurd notion, I know) and has still been highly productive. Some people just question Mario because of ridiculously high expectations that include him registering a force fumble sack on the quarterback on every snap.
