Not good. Competent safety play has made such a difference for this team. Nice touchdown pass from backfoot Schaub!
Hoping it's not the knee, like AJ. Realistically, if it's a hammy, you can give him four full weeks off. Jacksonville and Cleveland here should be wins regardless of who we have out there. I think Tampa is a tossup, and then the bye. If we could get into the bye at 6-4 and have Manning back after that, I'd be pretty pleased.
Which brings me back to why the Texans are willing to pay Jacoby Jones (who seems pretty replaceable) rather than Leach (who has yet to be replaced by two different players).
I honestly prefer Casey at FB to Leach (based on what I've seen), and I think the Texans do too. Things will get rolling once he's back.
I think the two should be looked at separately. I don't blame them for not overpaying Leach, but I do blame them for overpaying Jacoby.
He's a different type of FB. Occupys a defender based on his pass-catching ability, not a run blocker.
