No Quarterback on the practice squad!!
Where, oh where is John David Booty.

good one, krk
Very nice. Now who wants to place a bet on that?
I suppose if all of the stars, moons and planets align it could be possible, but what are the chances of that?
NFL.com
has an article saying that the comical is reporting we’re interested in him… so I’m sure the odds are 30-70 that we sign him

One good thing that could come out of bringing in Leinart
Maybe now we can get an informed and honest opinion as to who’s better, Andre Johnson or Larry Fitzgerald?

Some of the Cowboys folks are saying
Wall the worst of three CB’s that they cut. makes you kind of wonder
You can't fix Dumb or being a VYFB
Let's be honest,
… we signed Jacques Reeves. It seems the coaching staff is only comfortable with corners who are awful in Dallas.
I'm not really
understanding how our PS came to be.

No, we grabbed Chris Ogbonnaya from the Rams instead

Hey
As a 49 year old woman with bad knees…well…that’s just not very nice, young man! It is, however, a point well taken.

As a Longhorn fan
I like adding Ogbonnaya to the squad. I guess I’m not supposed to approve of our interest in Leinart, but I applaud the Texans for recognizing the potential disaster of Orlovsky starting if Schaub goes down, and seeking solutions. How do you not pursue another option after that Tampa game?

why the fuck did we not get JJ on PS? lol maybe i dont understand PS very well :(
Winning season... Check. Higher expectation bar... big Check.
i think jj
will find a place in this team again before the season ends

Get ready to bang your head against the wall...
According to Paul Kuharsky of ESPN.com, the Texans are the leading candidate to land Leinart. The Texans were the first team to contact Leinart after his release. A deal could be made soon.
Even if Dan is a bad QB, Leinart’s mentality is ‘me, me, me,’ which I can’t stand.
He went to SC which is bad enough, but to act like a douche because you lost the starting QB job is ridiculous.
I can’t believe we are going to sign him.
"You got to believe in yourself. Hell, I believe I'm the best-looking guy in the world and I might be right."- Charles Barkley
He will have to come in accepting the backup spot
He isn’t competing to be the starter until they wheel Schaub off the field.
I suppose if all of the stars, moons and planets align it could be possible, but what are the chances of that?
Even then, he still better not be competing for QB1
That’s the sort of shit that brought us the Rosencopter.
If the Treasury Secretary doesn't have to pay taxes, then why do I?
I think that ....
if we do sign him it will be to turn him into a tradeable asset later on. Who knows maybe a team that needs a quarterback next year might give us a a 4th for him? That’s what we got for sage didn’t we?

If the Chargers pulled a 3rd for Clipboard Jesus...
We could get a third off Leinart.

^^ This (on my wish list now)
It’s all about timing
If the Treasury Secretary doesn't have to pay taxes, then why do I?
if hes better than Danny boy
Im all for it
Rockets-Texans-Dynamo-Longhorn fan.. used to be Astros too, but not sure there a pro team anymore
Hate to be a homer
But had to sound off on Wall being signed, since he went to my high school, and played for Tech. (Go Wall!) I know he might not be a pro but seriously I’m very giddy. (Plainview biased comment now over, because I know how you all loove hearing about my life)

tell us more...

Seeing how we are fellow Red Sox fans, sure...

Ah ha someones looked at my profile recently!
"Do you ever feel more like you do now then when you got there?"
Why the Red Sox?
and don’t you think they need some new pitching?
I suppose if all of the stars, moons and planets align it could be possible, but what are the chances of that?
Meh. Don't really know why i support the Sox when I'm from Texas, just an oddball thing.
I don’t pretend to be an expert at baseball, but really the sox’s problem has been injuries. But when you are down 10 or 11 games in a division, it’s not just one problem. Oh well.
"Do you ever feel more like you do now then when you got there?"
well im a Texans fan from NC
i guess cause i didnt really get into football before 2002 and pulling for “the new team on the block” just seemed right… glad i did. this team is AWESOME
Some people say "If you can't beat them, join them". I say "If you can't beat them, beat them", because they will be expecting you to join them, so you will have the element of surprise.

Whats wrong with a 5yd per run average?
Nothing wrong with that
But the guy has a dislocated toe. The option is to cut him right now. The Texans need healthy bodies. Every team in the league needs healthy bodies. He can’t practice, so no practice squad for JJ. He isn’t going anywhere for now.
I suppose if all of the stars, moons and planets align it could be possible, but what are the chances of that?
fingers crossed
I liked him at RB3.
I hope he’s our RB3 when he’s healthy.

frankly, when healthy...
…I like him as our RB2.
We had better not let this guy get away!
the streak LIVES!!!!!!!!!!!!! (that's 14 in a row... but who's keeping count?)
@texansonabc13 should the texans run more nickel using Quin in the slot against Clark… since cushing will be out for vs the Colts?
