Brian Cushing Named AFC Defensive Player Of The Week
For the second time in three weeks, no less (tip o' the cap to Bobobigbro). From the official website, a few tidbits:
Cushing (6-3, 265) led the Texans with 10 tackles and had one sack, one pass defensed and an interception against the Buffalo Bills on Sunday. The interception was his second of the season and sealed the Texans' 31-10 victory.
The last rookie to win multiple weekly NFL awards was Vikings running back Adrian Peterson, who was named NFC Offensive Player of the Month twice in 2007. Peterson was a consensus choice for NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year that season.
The last defensive player to win two weekly awards was Ravens safety Ed Reed in 2008. Reed was a consensus All-Pro and finished third in voting for AP NFL Defensive Player of the Year.
Cushing leads all rookies and ranks fifth in the NFL with 66 tackles this season. He has led or tied for the team lead in tackles six times in eight games.
When you're keeping company with Adrian Peterson and Ed Reed, as a rookie, you just might have a future in this league, no matter what a moronic blogger says about you. Congratulations to Cush.

All you Cushing man-crush haters!
The true test in the life of a Texans fan is how gracefully you endure it.

I suppose if all of the stars, moons and planets align it could be possible, but what are the chances of that?

I hate to be wrong.
But I gotta love it when it comes to being wrong(not completely wrong) about a Texans player.
Congrats on Cush.

Brian Cushing...
can hit you so hard that he can actually alter your DNA. Decades from now your descendants will occasionally clutch their heads and yell “What The Hell was That?”
