Nice win .. if we can get Green and Johnson back, some of those FGs will turn into TDs and we'll be back in business.
this from the ESPN recap.... "On the next play Green was trying to block after a fumble by Ted Ginn Jr. and defensive tackle Travis Johnson hit Green in the head with his knee. After the play ended, Johnson stood over Green and taunted him, drawing a 15-yard penalty. Green lay still for several seconds as medical staff rushed to check on him. The Dolphins gathered near midfield and kneeled to pray a few feet away. Green was taken off the field in a stretcher. " Sounds horrible the way they wrote it, although I'm sure he had no idea he was really hurt.
No, I felt like it was really bad when i saw it. Green was obviously planted face first and not moving...and TJ's stupid ass stood over him and taunted. True, it was in the heat of the moment, but the guy was face first and in obvious trouble.
the box score on www.nfl.com shows that CC Brown, safety played today. Is this right? I thought he was gone for the year.
I actually recall seeing the face of realization on TJ's face after about 2 arm pumps. He was like, ". . . oh . . ."
That's not an accurate description of what happened. Green went low for the chop block and got a knee to the head. It was an accident. I think TJ was pissed about the attempted block when he realized what happened. It was still stupid on his part.
TJ was in post game interviews said at 12:01 he had all the repect in the world and at 12:20 he has zero for him wit that cheap shot he put on me. Gotta agree with him
On Football Night in America, they just showed that Trent Green play again. TJ started his taunt from about 5 yards away when Trent was clearly motionless facing the ground. TJ continues to walk and point and yell...completely uncalled for. And to continue making comments after the game...what a loser. If I was in charge, TJ's a$$ would be on the streets tomorrow morning. Very disgraceful.
This was my first time attending a Texans game. Easily the most fun I've had at a sporting event. The place went nuts on the game winning FG. Reliant Stadium is awesome.
Green deserves what he got. What did he expect trying to make a block at the knees? He could have ended Johnson's career...instead he might have finished his own off. At 37, he may be done. Not to mention his team is 0-5 with him at the helm. I'm not saying Green deserves to be brain damaged or anything like that...but sometimes karma prevails!
