Brian Cushing Named Texans' MVP; J.J. Watt Named Texans' Rookie Of The Year
Inside linebacker Brian Cushing has been voted the Texans’ 2011 Most Valuable Player by a vote of his teammates.
Cushing, who was named an alternate for the Pro Bowl, led Houston’s No. 2-ranked defense with 114 tackles. He had almost as many solo tackles (76) as Texans strong safety Glover Quin, who finished second on the team in tackles, had overall (77). Cushing also had 4.0 sacks, 4.5 tackles for loss, two forced fumbles, two interceptions and five passes defensed.
With Cushing leading the way in Wade Phillips’ 3-4 defense, the Texans allowed only 285.7 yards per game after giving up 376.9 in 2010. That 91.2-yard average improvement was the best in the NFL this season and third-best since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger. The Texans’ defense improved by 9.3 points per game, from 26.7 to 17.4, also the best turnaround in the league.
Can't argue with that; Cushing has been the most valuable player throughout the entire season, with Johnathan Joseph being the runner-up in my mind.
Within the link, there's also news that J.J. Watt was named the team's rookie of the year (also a no-doubt-about-it pick), and DeMeco Ryans won the Texans’ Ed Block Courage Award and a community service award named after Mark Bruener.
Votes for the Bennie Joppru Award are still being tabulated.

But the Titans need new guards, desperately. I wouldn’t mind Jeffrey over a guy like DeCastro, but I wouldn’t mind DeCastro over Jeffrey either.

can we somehow
slowly move him towards becoming a player coach? the man has what it takes to become a good LB coach and to have his spirit on the field makes me happy. He has been hampered with his robocop arm, and his Achilles, but you can see in his face he loves being out there… just wondering.

5.) Coaching – Houston
6.) Home Field – Houston

I guess i dont care about people picking cincy… I just dont know for the life of me why?
and thing that gets me is they have two rookies
who are going into thier first playoffs in the NFL. have no idea what to expect. Damn neither do we, but you know what i am getting at right?
Because we're the Texans.
History.
People also don’t really look at how we lost our last two games (we absolutely lost to Carolina, Indy was a win with even officiating, BESFs our backups’ backups almost won).
Our rookie has started fewer games.
Notice there’s not a lot of logic in that list.

Give the Bengals some credit
The Red Rocket has had a stellar rookie year. Except for Cam Newton, probably the best rookie QB out there.
AJ Green has been sick as well.
And Cedric is a beast if he can get some room to run.
That said:
I’m hoping that Andy will be looking out the earhole of his helmet because of the wrinkles that Wade and Kubes have inserted.
I’m hoping they figure out how to cover up AJ enough so that when Andy goes that way, we get some picks.
I’m hoping we can continue to bottle up Cedric.
I’m hoping that Tate and Foster hang onto the ball, and we gash the shit out of you guys (sorry).
I agree on the officiating in the Indy game.
I was PISSED after that game! How many yards of “offense” did Indy get off of penalties?

6.) Home Field – Houston and a stadium?
we have a third string quarterback. an undrafted runningback starting over a second round pick. we have the best name in sports. we have a front seven consisting of no name high motor guys except for that one guy cheated that one time. wade phillips is a nobody. gary kubiak couldn’t coach him way out of a paper bag. houston is a small market behind helena, montana and boise, idaho.

You know what i dont see happening?
GreenBay Vs. New England for the SB. Something tells me fielding 2 of the worst defenses in the NFL will bite at least one if not both of these teams in the Butt before the SB… Boy would the media just love to have that match up though…. Brady vs. Rogers… we cant let that happen.
You're probably right, but if the Texans aren't there, I hope Brady is.
He’s the only AFC QB playing this year who can put up #s like Brees or Rodgers.
Realistic thoughts...
New Orleans is one of the hottest teams right now… Their D has looked great the last few games and ther O is…. well yeah. I would pick NO over any NFC or AFC at this time… team.
As far as the AFC goes i do believe it to be weaker than the NFC…
New England – No D.
Baltimore – hit or miss
Pitt. – Banged up child molester and their run game may be out
Denver – sorry Mike… but i dont see it.
Cincy – has to face houston in the first round… nough said
Houston – could be the upset pick… but they would be just that, the upset
those were realistic thoughts…. Of course the fact that they are my thoughts means it wont happen. hahah. which is good. Houstons first playoffs ends as SB Champions…. we all know that.
I would prefer
San Francisco vs Houston as the SB what would be greater than two teams that havent been to the playoffs in a decade (at least) vying for the NUMBER ONE SPOT IN SPORTS EVAR!

All year it’s been about high-flying offensive teams with horrendous defenses. A Super Bowl match up between two teams that made it with powerful run games and great defenses would be a nice “fuck you” to those teams and the networks that fellated them all year.

I love it when you use that word…

If they didn't have to go up against Brees and Co. in the Superdome
I would favor them over teams like the Falcons or Giants to make some upset noise. BUT going into the Superdome and getting a win is one of the most difficult things to do in the NFL today.
My friend who is a Colts fan hooked me up with tickets! :)))))!!!

Well earned Cush!!
I’ve been wearing his jersey since we drafted him, and I never gave up on him during his challenging season last year. I hope he replaces the great, and I do mean great, Urlacher as the “recognized” premier NFL MLB over the next few seasons. He deserves the recognition for being such an instinctive and aggressive defender.
Ray Lewis may still be suiting up and getting pro-bowl invites, but he’s soon to follow the way of Junior Seau and become an observer after a long and dominating career.
Go 56!!!
NFL referee corruption is disgusting! I'm done as a season ticket holder until it gets cleaned up!
don't forget patrick willis and jon beason. those dudes are monsters

the 49ers fans will never let us forget about Patrick Willis ;-)

Didn't Jon Beason blow an achilles this year?
Damn you vile woman, you've impeded my work since the day I escaped your vile womb ...
OT
but On The Nose has some great lines this week.
Cody – Mr Mcnair, what was the last charitable act you performed?
Bob McNair – Well Shaun, it was that two year contract I gave you.
absolutely hilarious
Gopher ball crush!!!

I liked Barwin shining McNair's shoes
also -
Cody – What should I call you? Bob? Bobby?
McNair – How about Mr. McNair or Sir?
Funniest one yet
Damn you vile woman, you've impeded my work since the day I escaped your vile womb ...
Cody's sense of humor almost makes up for his deficiencies on the field.
Which haven’t been as big of a problem as I feared. Then again, 56 having his back probably minimized them at least a little bit. Yea… Cushing was a great MVP pick.
"This is probably the only one of these you've given away"
hahaha
You’ve got to love Bob McNair. Not only did he fork over a veritable assload of money just to bring football back to us, he’s hilarious.
He’s a class act, with a class organization. No wonder with only a decade behind us, we’re in the top ten most valuable sports franchises in the world. Good work Uncle Bob.
I am very happy Cushing got recognized by his team-mates
that’s the vote that REALLY matters. Although I confess that I didn’t vote NEARLY as much as I did for Pro Bowl as last year when I was voting for Leach to go to the beach.
In the back of my mind I was thinking … “dude, we’re going to the super bowl, we won’t be able to go to the pro bowl anyway” ;-).
I still honestly think we can make it to the Super Bowl this year. Go TEXANS!
much love for Brian Cushing! =) I love hearing him mic’d up.
LOL Cush to Disrupticon (Antonio Smith)
“This is a grown dog’s game. Ain’t no puppies out here.”
LOL just amazing. Something about the tone of his voice reminds me of Robert Duval playing Kilgore in Apocalypse now. “you either surf or you fight. . . Charlie don’t surf!”
and I often felt disrepectful of Cushing when I saw the picture of the poor guy bleeding from the bridge of his nose and all I could think of was an old Twisted Sister video of the dad saying “what’s that a Twisted Sister pin? On your uniform???!!!!! I carried an M-16 and you carry that . . . that GUITARRRR!”
LOL Cushing is so much cooler than that dad in the video but LOL he had that “mad man” look on his face ;-)

rec'd for helping me recall where I had seen that face before
AND making me recall that awesome video.
I WANNA ROCK!
C’mon Saturday…
LOL and for those who aren't sure which Twisted Sister Video I was referring to
here you go
it should be safe for work but there’s violence like in the loony toon cartoons so . . .your mileage might vary at work.
The dad’s face here reminds me of Cushing when his face was bleeding
<3 Cushing!
We’re not gonna take it!

and I looked up the I Wanna Rock Video too.
that was pretty epic too ;-). More Wily E Coyote type antics in a music video and basic head banging =D.
same actor as in the We’re not gonna take it video
funny stuff =)

Cushing reminds me of the look on Kilgore's face when he's talking about war....
