    Sadly. . . this may go more toward getting Gary fired than the losses

    Him 'losing' the locker room

    "funnysad" and "battlefight" might both make appearances in kubiak's press conference this week.

    I'm wondering why you "missed it."

    Were you watching the entire game like I was?

    If no, then you'd probably say like the idiot on the TV capture that "inexplicably" the two fought. That wasn't what happened. Brian Cushing was trying to get Smith to stop fighting towards the lineman trying to undercut him. When Smith wanted to continue towards the offensive lineman, Cushing stopped him. This made Smith tussle with Cushing and in the action of taking Cushing's hands off him, he took off Cushing's helmet off. In no way was that a fight between teammates, and Cushing didn't take off his own helmet. :eek:

    Smith was getting into it with one of the Titans players and Cushing was probably running over to prevent any flags being thrown after Anderson just picked up a sack to make a it a long field goal ("Cushings" taking his helmet off penalty made the field goal 30 yards I believe), and Smith was probably just being his out of control self. I like Smith but he's a loose cannon out there

    From what I could tell, they weren't fighting. That's just the sports guy trying to make it more exciting.

    Smith was pissed off at the Tit line man, and was losing his cool. Cushing was keeping him from fighting, but in doing so had to deal with a hot headed Smith.

    Just saw that Bo Scaife was placed on the inactive list before the game, after not being on the injury report...hmmm...this comes after making comments supporting VY..

    From a titans board:
    "If this had happened after the game he dropped the easy TD Fish could get away with saying it was bad play and time to give the younger guys more reps. But, Bo's best game of the year was last week with 2 TD catches. This is all about retribution for his comments this week and its just one more rock to add to the mountain of evidence that Fisher has let his ego override his football responsibilities."

    Fire. Fisher.

    Cushing was trying to be a leader, but the team doesn't respect him.

    No obviously I didnt watch these losers the whole game. I tuned away for awhile and came back. Is that not ok? I'm sure I'm not alone. People will find better things to do rather than spend their Sundays watching these pathetic losers play terrible football.

    Anyhow, thanks for the explanation although it wasnt necessary.

    We better be tanking....

    SportsRadioRH Arian Foster says he had muscle spasm but it did not keep him out in 4Q. Coach's decision to go with Ward.

    Im glad to see management/coaching starting to preserve some of their guys, first with shutting Mario down. They need to continue to lessen Foster's workload, he's been the almost exclusive runner the entire season and had some serious injuries in college let's keep him fresh for next year. Now that the Johnson/Innegan rematch is over, I hope Dre is next to be shut down maybe even Matt too (he's been getting crushed).

    The closest these teams came to fighting came near the end of the first half. Mark Anderson(notes), starting with Mario Williams(notes) on injured reserve, sacked Collins. Away from the play, Titans left guard Leroy Harris(notes) rolled up Texans end Antonio Smith’s legs. Both got up for some pushing and shoving. But it was Texans linebacker Brian Cushing(notes) who drew the only penalty when his helmet got knocked off.

    I'd like to see Andre play the last two games. He has a shot at 1500 yds for three straight seasons and it would be cool if he got it. He would be the only receiver in NFL history to do it. He's off by 300 right now, but its doable.

    I want him to be healthy too, but at this point he's going to need any records he can get since he'll never make a name in the playoffs it seems. :mad:

    NBC just mentioned the whole cushing v. smith thing during their pregame. I really don't feel like it was that big of a deal, just a heat of the moment thing.

    So even though they're losing can you still count this little incident as having "fire" and "passion"?

    me neither.. even though they won last year being down 21-0... this time I left the game early. Saved me about an hour on the drive.

    The product the Texans put out is like a rotten steak... from far away it looks good but once you get to the meat of it... it's still rotten.

    Why did Cush get a penalty for taking his helmet off? (when he did not even take his own helmet off). Cortland Finnegan takes his helmet off all the time, especially in the last matchup and was never penalized.
