Competition... - Houston Texans Message Board & Forum

WILLIEG · 05-01-2006

I love to see us bringing in more and more guys to compete for a job. That was the problem with the old coaching staff in not allowing as much competion as possible. Glad to see all the favoritism is out the door. I truly believe most players practice like they play or at least thats what most coaches believe to be true. I would like to see our roster full of Defensive players. I have all the faith in our new coaching staff and look forward to a new beginning in 2006. GO TEXANS!!!

You are correct in that competition is a good thing, which makes me wonder if there is any competition for the most important position on the team---QB.

There aren't too many guys that are locks to start this season. The only ones that im sure will start off the top of my head are:

QB: Carr
RB: DD
WR 1: AJ
WR 2: Moulds
TE: Putzier
LG: Pitts
C: Flanagan

RDE: Williams
DT: Smith
LDE: Weaver
Linebacker (Whichever one the FO wants him on): Demeco
CB 1: Dunta

Brown and Earl looks like our starting safeties, the question is which will be FS and which will be SS

It seems like this is the first year that the team has brought in players that I have heard of and has people actually fighting to make this team.
