how old is he? guess it doesnt matter since he is a kicker.

[hookinreds]

You meant Kris Brown.

[Texan4Ever]

Its Kris Brown, but anyways he is the best kicker in Texans history !

Kicker Kris Brown just signed a 4 year extension. While this is good news, I wish they would concentrate more on signing Dunta, OD, Ryans and the rest of the rookies.

lol, I thought you meant "Chris Brown" and I was about to wonder about our FOs sanity!

[Insideop]

You beat me to it. Mods you can merge the post please.

I saw the name in the title and about peed my pants.

Good for KB! I'm happy for him and happy he's still a Texan. He's definitely turned it around since he struggled a few season's back.

[utahmark]

guess i did.lol ive seen people complain about that a hundred times then i do it anyway.

Wonder how Demeco, Daniels, and Robinson feel about Kris Brown getting extended first. Guess it shouldn't matter since it's like 1/5 of what they're trying to get. Glad to see Kris get extended though, he's always been a team player. He missed the FG in San Francisco week 17 of the 2005 season that secured us the #1 pick in the draft and then turned it around and helped us win some key games in 2007 and 2008 (Miami with the 3 50+ FGs, Only win against Indy, etc).

From what I have been reading they should all be thrilled with this move because we are rewarding a guy from within (unless that was all BS). I like the timing of this move, I doubt it was intentional but it looks like the Texans are saying we aren't scared to hand out the cash to our own players, just have a little patience. It is just the kicker but he has been a good one for us.

In line? She only adds fuel to the burning fire, LOL!

Congrats, Kris!

But, I think the Texans may need a bail-out next year!!!

[Mari-OWNED!]

Love it! Congrats Kris!

I guess this pretty much means he will be retiring a Texan. (Which makes me happy!)

This should be a heads-up for OD, his wake-up call. He (or maybe his agent), has this thought that's he's some kind of all-world talent because he happen to go to Honolulu when one of the Pro-Bowl regulars called in sick. It was really just a fluke you know. Obviously Brown signed because he and his agent are reasonable men, and OD & his probably aren't. The country, the whole world is gripped in the worse economic downturn since the '30s. Wake-up boy, take the deal !
D-Rob ? Use him as you see fit this year, then when you're done with him, F-Tag him again and trade the sukker for everthing you can get.
DeMeco is different, he's the man on the Texans D and if they have to make him the highest paid inside LB (4-3 or 3-4) in the NFL, I say give the man his money.

[False Start]

Good news. I'm glad we have this guy.

I might be going out on a limb here, but I reckon there are several deals on the table being worked on at the same time. I highly doubt it matters who might sign first. Additionally, I'd think it'd be a little easier working out a kickers contract vs a position player.

Nice ASSumption.

BTW, why does D-Ryans deserve to get paid moreso than OD? Comparatively speaking, D-Ryans didn't have as good of a year as OD did. OD has progressed each season while D-Ryans has yet to out produce his rookie season. I most definitely think D-Ryans should be extended, but I would not put him before OD.

Isn't he the only place kicker the Texans ever had? Him and Pitts are the only original Texans left I believe.

nunusguy i really don't understand your reasoning behind all your cynicism. just because the economy isn't good doesn't mean that OD doesn't deserve to get paid. this is his job. us fans tend to look at it as a loyalty business when, in reality, this is how they put food on the table. A LOT of REALLY expensive food but food none the less. he's a key part of this offense as D-Rob and DeMeco are key parts of our defense. they all should be given multi-year extensions because they all deserve them through their hard work and leadership, not to mention the production they give us on sundays.

thats the point. he's the best. because he's the original.

[TEXANS84]

Good for Kris.

I can't think of another Texans kicker that deserved it more than him (sarcasm).

Guess we'll see Diapher around for another 4 years!!
