From 90 To 80: Cuttin' Heads Like Eugene Martone

if we could agree that Steve Miller Band jokes about him were off-limits.

open heart surgey yet?

I went back and forth on Hendrickson for quite a while.

I assume you mean Jason Teague? He’s got good size, and CB seems like another position where they’ll keep as many bodies as possible until the very end.

Cheta very well could be, but I think he’ll get cut Sunday instead.

Williams has just been such a non-factor that it’s not like he’ll sneak into that last WR slot, and I assume that the coaches will give the guys who DO have a shot at that slot a lot of reps Sunday.

otherwise he’d have to sit out til week 6 or w/e the rule is.

granted I don’t listen to his stuff except on sportsnation, but is he really that bad? If i was #23, I woulda saved that shot for Skip Fucking Bayliss

Of course he’s been hurt almost his entire time here so hard to evaluate that. Which is unfortunate because he could probably out run most defensive players if you could create that match up of him coming out of the backfield like Casey.

Over concerns that he may not wake up in time for the beginning of the season. Texans fans have lined up at the door of one Chris Chase with rope and an impaling spike which will be used as retribution for the panic onset by this terrifying news.

While I’d hate to see Mario leave, that contract of his really is going to be a major headache at the end of the season. Only the coaches really know how his transition is going. As much as they say Reed outplayed him, I don’t think Reed did so against starters.

Also, I think the success others are having imo is b/c of Mario’s presence on the field. He had to be accounted for wherever he lines up. He was being disruptive simply by being in the play.

He’s changing positions. The transition might take some time.

He took a big step in the SanFran game by getting 5 hurries on the QB.

Trading him in his last year of his contract might seem like a good idea, but who replaces him? Brooks Reed? Sure, Reed has kicked ass this preseason, but Mario has a huge impact on the game. If he doesn’t get to the QB when he’s 1on1, he’s being doubled, freeing up Watt, Barwin, and Smith, who are all good pass rushers.

Trading Mario would be downright stupid, especially since the main reasoning for doing so is because he’s not getting 10 sacks per game while transitioning to a new position.

WR Trindon Holliday (hamstring) returned to practice today. Kubiak expects him to play this week. He’s missed the whole preseason

especially with several camp reports saying he showed the explosiveness he had in his rookie year. Still fumbled a couple of times though.

Thing is, do we want to see him b/c we want him to be traded? Or do we want him to climb over Ward for the 3rd RB spot?

Which is unfortunate because the second team o-line is now full of 3rd team o-lineman with all the injuries.

Not sure how many times Leinart will throw but I think Yates will get to sling it around.

Tate and Ward prob share snaps in the first series or two if first series was a 3 and out. Slaton and Og can take the RB snaps for rest of the game. Prob more Slaton than Og and hopefully increase his trade value.

Just kidding… Belicheat gets a pass from me just for his abuse of the media… MOAR media abuse!!!

Manning, Quin, and Nolan is a pretty decent group. Maybe a 4th one or a CB like McManis also in the mix.

If anything we should be looking at o-lineman that are cut considering the injuries we’ve taken to the 2nd team line.

but goes to I.R. i just don’t see them cutting him this year.

80 for dropping a 30yd pass in game 2 and 90 for posting no stats in game 3.

Yes, I’m joking.

I will not draft anyone from our division rivals for my FF team. As for other opponents. I will not root for them when they play against the Texans, reality > fantasy. There will be some “well at least the guy who scored on us is on my FF team”, but I won’t be happy if my FF team won but Texans lost.

comments were way over the top. I mean its not like the guy had a life-threatening injury; it’s a pulled hamstring! Of course, most people care for Arian as a person, just like most people care for most other people as people and don’t wish anyone any harm. But, he is a football player and fantasy football is a VERY BIG business in this country and is very popular so, sure, most people were wanting to know how he was doing as it related to the Texans season 1st (to Texans fans anyway), and as it related to their fantasy football league 2nd. I mean, come on people, we all know he is okay as a person and will be okay as a professional football player, as it stands right now so the caring for Arian as a person is understood.

Lets not forget our week 3 performance in the preseason last year. Even in loses Manning has had his way with the Texans so if he can go you know the Colts want him on the field.

I personally WANT him under center week 1. No better test than Peyton. Like last season when he shredded our defense and gave us a preview of the upcoming year.

I think the Colts/P8un would be idiotic imbecilic moronic dumbasses if he did play in week 1. With the way our defense has been getting to quarterbacks (and not just the backups) why would they put their entire franchise’s hope at risk with no practice time and probably not 100%. Everyone knows without the 4head, the Dolts have no chance of going anywhere this season. Because of this I don’t see any way he plays week 1. I don’t think he plays until week 3 at the earliest. If he does play I see a very good chance he could be lost for the season. If that happens Texans get first win ever in Indy – bank on it.

Makes sense since only Lestar has really shown any potential so far and he’s hurt.
