With the Titans, Brown was a terrific runner when he was healthy, but he was injured in each of his five seasons with Tennessee.

dude was a beast at colorado and he might be a fantasy sleeper, can't complain about the move, just hope for the best

Hey guys, don't get me wrong here, I hope he turns out to be what we are looking for and tears up the NFL in our system. But I'm just going by what I read.

If the Texans do draft a back, one of those guy's is going to get cut. I think Darius Walker is a likely candidate to be cut at this point.

The Texans were looking for another veteran running back who fit the system. They don't plan to re-sign Ron Dayne.

Without Ron Dayne how are we going to make up that 59.6 yards of rushing per game?

Welcome aboard Chris Brown and congratulations for shedding off your Pansy take it the butt blue and wear the colors of real men.

May you destroy and single handedly defeat the Titans each and every time we play them.

I dont think Walker or Green will be on the roster on opening day.

Hmm..I don't know at this point. We've heard so little about Ahman Green's injury that it could be a bad sign. But on the other hand if Ahman is fully healthy then he can clearly be a good running back. Walker on the other hand I think is too small to be a full time starter but he can be a situational guy. But I don't think the Texans will keep this many backs on the team if they decide to draft one.

Jonathan Stewart just emailed me this buffalo vs. duck match-up & clearly the best runner was a duck & not a certain rb named Chris Brown-

Chris Brown, who rushed for 198 yards and a school-record six
touchdowns against Nebraska, was held to just 30 yards on nine
carries.

i think our rb situation is now all about strength in numbers, no way all these guys are hurt, imagine if chris taylor lives up to the message board hype along with a healthy green, brown, and walker. WOW. now all we need to do is cut down on the turnovers.

I think running the ball will cut down on turnovers themselves. Since we didnt have much of a running game, we somehow became one of the top passing offenses in the league stat wise. 11th according to NFL.com. So we pass less, drastically reduces INTs.

A ground game will open up play action as well as keep defenses more honest.

Then again when we do run we have to HOLD ON to the ball....thats a whole other story.

[Wolf]

some need to cut the guy some slack

he was 25/29 on field goals for us and 40/40 on extra points

3 of the misses for 40-49 range and one miss 20-29 range but 5/5 on 50+

Well, maybe the thought is around the odds of both Green and Brown injured at the same time will be low. Either of those two would be terrific when they are healthy.

It doesn't matter now, the deal is done and Brown is a Texan. As with anything else they do, we'll just have to wait and see what happens.

Nice! The only thing getting me through this thread are the Tommy Boy quotes.

"Your brain has a thin candy shell".....what a freaking great movie.

As far as the Chris Brown thing, I want to see the $ before I rush to judgement. I think he can be a good back when healthy as everybody and their dog has said. Should make for an interesting camp.
