Open Game Day Thread: Second Quarter - Texans @ Raiders

Arian Foster is being benched for some reason, but that's okay because we have Derrick Ward and Steve Slaton carrying the load. Texans lead 14-7.

If you’ve got a player who let’s three good games get to his head and make him think he’s above the team, then show him that you don’t need him.

Foster is a strange one. You hear a lot about how laid-back he is. Maybe Kubiak just wants to make sure he keeps working hard every single day and getting better.
