    Not a bust just yet but he'll be definitely playing under a cloud of doubt next season. Up to him to prove he's legit and worthy of being a No. 1 pick.

    This subforum is dropping like a rock because of antagonism and personal attacks. You went with a personal attack for a guy saying he agrees with you. Y'all didn't even have a fundamental disagreement.

    Yes, that's why it's puzzling he told me this:

    He became more hostile after that. That's why I told him to get laid. It's over and done with, I only brought it up to bring context to your use of my comment.

    His foot is completely parallel with the field. Also, he was not looking down and has no idea where or what his foot was doing when he landed.

    Let's remember your evidence is that Clowney told Swearinger he fell in a hole in the ground. The video evidence doesn't support this. The guy's knee gave out which unfortunately happens.

    He's not a bust yet. I think it is a concern as to what is going on in that knee that a cleanup didn't fix it. The doctor botching it is as unsupported and hasty conclusion as the field. Both of which completely ignore the possibility that he has real issues that have crippled the careers of other players.

    We don't know anything. That's the point. Hope for the best but this has been a miserable start to his career for everyone.

    Mario is 3rd in sacks since he came into the league and he also only missed significant time in 1 season with Houston when he tore his pec.

    Yeah I've had it done before. It was during my second ACL reconstruction. The doctor wasn't sure if he was going to have to perform the procedure until he got in there.

    This is what happens when you hype someone up to be the next Lawrence Taylor before they were even drafted...

    They get injured? That's an odd correlation.

    My apologies for ruining your website sir. I will extremely limit my post in the Texans forum and I'm sure it will return to the greatness that you speak of... My bad. No harm ment.

    Nope, but they have ultra unrealistic expectations put on them. And with the luck of our franchise, the absolute worst possible thing you think that could happen, does happen.
