    So true...if we all focus on Clowney, you see he is containing the edge and at times dominating...just a matter till the efforts produce numbers. This is like Clowneys rookie year and he is definitely impressing me. As great as Watt is... ( he could break the sack record) ...it's easy to forget he only had 5.5 as a rookie

    Sorry, you're wrong, Godsey didn't have the title of Offensive Coordinator last year, but he called the plays as QB coach.....exactly like BOB did in NE.

    Nope, OB was in control last season and handed the duties over to Godsey this season.

    So if Hopkins has 3 TDs in 3 games...he's on pace of 17 TDs in 16 games?

    I should probably go back to 1st grade math to figure this out...

    Godsey had input in calling plays, but OB had a heavy influence on play calling last season. This year, the duties have all been handed over to Godsey. There are articles on it if you want to look it up.

    No, he is right.

    He is expecting the Texans to trade him before the bye week to another team which already had the bye.

    Then he will play 17 games.

    PFF's grades from Sunday:
    https://www.profootballfocus.com/blog/2015/09/28/tb-hou-grades-ryan-mallett-earns-career-high-grade/

    – LT Chris Clark (+3.1) bounced back from a poor Week 2 showing (-1.6) to have his best game since the divisional playoff round back in 2013, when he was on the Denver Broncos. He had the fifth-highest grade among all OTs this weekend, and his +2.6 pass-blocking grade was the third-highest.

    – CB Johnathan Joseph (+3.5) ranked second among all CBs this weekend. Joseph was targeted 12 times, and he allowed just two receptions for 24 yards and had three pass defenses.

    – QB Ryan Mallett (+1.1) bounced back from a disastrous Week 2 (-7.2) to have the highest-graded game of his career in Week 3. A big reason for his success this week stems from Houston’s use of play action. For the season, Mallett’s completion percentage is 26.9 percent better when he’s throwing from play action. Through the first two weeks of the season, just 9.5 percent of Mallett’s attempts came from play action; in Week 3, 20 percent of his attempts came from play action.

    Top Performers:

    P Shane Lechler (+5.5)

    CB Johnathan Joseph (+3.5)

    NT Vince Wilfork (+3.3)

    LT Chris Clark (+3.1)

    DE J.J. Watt (+3.0)

    RT Derek Newton (+2.1)

    It's hard to put much stock in PFF numbers when they gave Aaron Rodgers a -0.8 grade against the Chiefs when he threw for over 300 yards and had 5 TD's with a 68.5 completion %
