Pro Football Talk: WR Kevin Walter Has Broken Shoulder, Expected To Miss 10-12 Weeks
I hate to rain on a celebratory mood, but it looks like we're down to half a second wide receiver. I wouldn't expect anything official from the team until tomorrow or Tuesday until they line up another receiver to bring in.

If it actually came down to Moss or TO
Then TO. But he had surgery on his ACL this offseason so I don’t see that happening.
We’d either bring in somebody (David Anderson perhaps) or activate Maehl and roll with Jacoby at #2 and Bryant at #3.
But wow losing Walter really hurts.
Prediction: 11-5 AFC South champions.
Let's leave off the two guys who
either don’t care about playing (Moss) or are old, coming off injury, and can’t catch or block to Kubiak’s standards (TO)
"Lord, beer me strength."
TO isnt even healthy yet
I wish we could hire coaches without "having grown up in Houston" being a job requirement.
David Anderson makes the most sense

yes
He already knows the system.
I wish we could hire coaches without "having grown up in Houston" being a job requirement.
Though doesn't Maehl fit the bill too?
And he’s been with the team all pre-season.

He's a bit raw
I like the veteran experience Anderson brings. Plus if god forbid we have anymore injuries in the next 15 games, we can call him up then.

Mmmmm... cabrito...

Walter was not wearing a sling today. Not sure where Pro Football talk is getting this.
"Lord, beer me strength."
So, what is it, TDC?
You started this thing….
I didn't do anything wrong!.... and, I won't do it again.
I said the team wouldn't give anything official til Monday or Tuesday
When PFT and La Canfora both tweet about this….I happen to think it’s true though.
It is interesting though cause no one else seemed to think it was a big injury.
"Lord, beer me strength."
Okay, I can live with that.... but, let the rumors fly!
I didn't do anything wrong!.... and, I won't do it again.
Nick Scurfield did say Walter didn't think it was serious.

Walter said he’s not really worried about the injury but will have to wait and see until tomorrow
Also

WR Kevin Walter said he injured his right collarbone & will have an MRI tomorrow. Said he’ll be “ready to roll as soon as possible.”
I’ll turn off my panic button for a moment.
Prediction: 11-5 AFC South champions.

lol wat?
their depth is way better than ours. Hell we only had 4 WRs on the roster to begin with.
I wish we could hire coaches without "having grown up in Houston" being a job requirement.
GB doesn't carry any D players
6WR and 5 TE’s
Mario Williams will have 4 sacks and 1 int by Game 4 of the regular season.

I wish we could hire coaches without "having grown up in Houston" being a job requirement.
I love how all the announcers except for collinsworth is making every aspect of this win into manning not being there they even said that mario played better cus peyton was out lol the caption even said texans defeat manningless colts how about we put 34 points up with out the leagues leading running back

Were you expecting different?
Of course all the talk will be about no Manning. I don’t care let them make excuses. I’m ready focused on seeing what the Dolphins look like Monday night.
Prediction: 11-5 AFC South champions.
Yup, it's up to the Texans to just make it too obvious to ignore...

So Randy Moss is not an option whatsoever?

To run over any stray traffic cops in the area?
Of course.
To play wide receiver on this team? mmmmm… probably not.

all Moss can do
is run a go or a post. We need someone who can block and run a decent route.
I wish we could hire coaches without "having grown up in Houston" being a job requirement.
I have no desire..
To see TO or Moss in a Texan uniform. Both are aging and only put in the effort when they feel like it. Would much rather bring back DA if this turns out to be true. I guess the silver lining would be that he would still be back by the end of the season?
I refuse to believe this team will even look at TO or Moss.
Which to me would be the smartest move to make. They have both lost a lot in the past 2 or 3 seasons. I would rather bring in D.A. or possibly try to make a trade. UUGGHH, I pray this is a false report and he has a strained collarbone or something.
But the real question is:
would we rather have DA, TO, Moss or KW for our playoff run?
I'd take D.A. for now
Maybe mid-season I’d take T.O.

I agree
But maybe the brain trust has a secret plan
then again it may be a bruise

KW, assuming it's not a serious injury
No question about it.
Kubiak confirmed that Walter is getting an MRI on his collarbone/shoulder tomorrow
Wouldn’t that imply that an X-ray came up negative for a fracture? Or is it “find out how bad that little line on the X-ray is” sort of thing?
Could be either one
I’ve had to get MRI’s on 2 of the stress fractures I’ve had on my left foot, just X-rays on the other 2 times I’ve stress fractured it. I would love an ankle that wasn’t made out of glass.
Isn't Anderson the same guy as Kevin Walter?

What are you trying to say?
That all white people look alike? Jajajaja

I can't tell them apart, honestly.
Anderson and Walter, that is.

Not at all
They were used very differently in this system. Which is why I’m not sure DA is automatic.

NO MOSS!!!!!!!!!!
Kubiak would look to bring in a BIG-Veteran receiver…
Kevin Walter is most valuable in the running game… we need another WR who can come in and run/cut block effectively.
Doesn't bringing in someone
also mean Walter has to be IR’ed? In which case he would be out for the season even if he’s due to miss 10 weeks?
I think you can put him on PUP for 6 weeks or more

maybe so

They would have to create a roster spot somewhere
It wouldn’t necessarily have to be by putting Walter on IR though.

Carmichael to IR would be easy if they say he comes up with a mysterious injury
