Kris Lidge

My best buddy who went to the game with me last night asked what my feeling was before Kris lined up to kick the field goal to possibly tie the game to go into OT vs. the Titans.  I responded that one of two things would occur: Kris makes the kick and puts the two prior misses (end of the Colts game & middle of Texans game) out of his head for good OR Kris misses this one for the trifecta and immediately has uncertainty muddle his mind for the rest of his tenure with the Texans & becomes worthless.  Much like Lidge, Kris with that miss last night is done as an automatic kicker for the Texans.  Now Kubiak will have to wonder how close does he need to be for Brown to kick a makeable field goal, which then starts to shake up a sometimes shaky Red Zone offense when we can't afford to be uncertain with 6 games left. 

Bring in some kickers to audition to put Kris on notice.  Then next season, make a change at kicker and go after LenDale White in FA for a power back to offset Slaton. Maybe Brown recovers with another team much like Lidge did when he went on to the Phillies.  However, Kris Brown can't be a Texan in 2010...

I'm just sayin'....
