I’ve had plenty of arguments with Jerome and I mostly disagree on things that he says about the Texans but I gotta give him credit for that article.

I started reading the comments below.

Big mistake.

Did you know people are still defending David Carr?!??!?!!!!?
I haven’t been living under a rock for the past five years, why was I not aware of this??!!

fantastic work, if you’re reading.

Yay Tim!

And really he’s (arguably) the best sportswriter we have (his competition is Richard Justice and John McClain. Z is close but I think I enjoy SOlomons pieces more during the season. Z is good with the draft and fantasy. All in all he can be inflammatory but he puts out some decent stuff. I believe in Okoye.

until i saw sage hit the field for a game…when he played and got more accomplished as a back up, than carr did the whole year…that was when i labeled carr as a bust. i bought into the whole “scared of his shadow for all of the sacks he took” comments, and even thought that when they were drafting defense, the organization ought to be drafting offensive linemen …ok….now that being said, i rethought my opinion of that…i agree with the article i just read, i am a big fan of okoye, and pretty much everyone else on the texans team. the play against the saints was just plain bad…but i am reserving solid judgment about the defense until regular season…then the team is on the field for the whole game, with all the gameplans that they are hiding right now. that’s when you are going to get to see the adjustments, whether or not the coaching can make things work with the players they have available…until then, i can’t label anyone (carr and tj excluded) a bust.

 “Premature Drafticulation?”

laughed my ass off at that one.

I’m not going to take some cheap shot at my man Zierlein for how he raved about Okoye on draft day. (If I were, I’d tell you what he wrote when it appeared the Texans might be able to pick him: “Amobi Okoye makes me moist!”)
