Steph!! THANKS for the pic of AS!! I go in early, to the games, just to watch him workout in front of the Bullpen! Ever seen an old lady drool??? Join me down there sometimes when he's there!! Do believe he could take the "poetry in motion" title away from AF!

I'm definitely a kubiack guy, I was one of the few who didn't want him gone a year ago

wow thought i would have copped it for that comment.
probably would have been shot a year ago.
how times have changed

Kubiak said QB Case Keenum was at his best today at end of practice in hurry-up offense. "He was automatic." #Texans

Kubiak will rest veterans next week in mini-camp. John Beck, Case Keenum will get all the QB reps #Texans

#Texans made it out of OTAs w/ no major injuries. Kubiak said he gave head athletic trainer Geoff Kaplan a high-five

#Texans had their 10th & final practice of OTAs today. Coach Gary Kubiak said they were "much better" than yesterday

From what I read on AFC South blog at espn.com...Kuharsky has been at Texans OTAs today, maybe the past two days as well, so we can expect a write-up from him on the things he observed at Texans OTAs.

Case getting to handle the snaps A LOT next week...will be interested to see how he handles the workload--Will he be extraordinarily great, or consistently good, or erratic throughout the week?

This is a time when you show if you are an up-and-coming talent or just-another-guy. I expect Case to win QB3 over Beck, just as I expect Bullock to win the K job.

I would have to assume he intends to only include rookies next week. Technically veteran = non-rookie.

Personally, I think it has more to do with the number of QB's we have that are young or new to the program. To me, TJ needs to be better than he was last season. He needs all the reps he can get as our #2 and having a QB #1 that could go down easier than a lot of other QBs in te league.

That said, I reckon he'll be getting a crap load of reps in camp now that he is #2.

[Texn4life]

How many mini camps are we having again this year? Is that going to be the only one?

[painekiller]

This is the way Gary has done it the last couple of years, last year excluded due to the lock out. He rest the vets and gives the rookies the reps. It show the coaches which rookies are up to speed.

Now when camp starts, the team starts over and installs the playbook from square one. The OTA and minicamps are being used to get all the vets, rookies, and newly signed free agents on the same page.

TJ looks better than Beck.

Beck looks better than Case.

I can see why he might want to get Beck, Case up to speed.

Cushing was a surprise today. He looked like Cushing. Had his left knee covered.

Catch of the day was a beauty one to Posey. Bomb. Look like it was slightly too far at first, and Posey went to another gear to get it.

They did a lot more situational stuff today. 2 minute, red zone, goal line, moving down field and kicking from long distance. (giving both kickers a chance).

Oh, and I can take video, but if I do, NFL rules only allow me to keep it at the Chron site for 24 hours which isn't worth editing it and usually nobody wants to say much of anything and they are hot and sweaty and just want to get in the AC.

So on the way to the scrum, I've been asking players for pictures for fans, to use for avatars and the like because well, someone asked me if they were okay with using my Fangupo picture for an avatar, and I've sorta figured what the hell. This is today's which would make for lovely photoshopping.

Steph, no offense to you or Antonio but seriously, if he approaced me in that regard, I would drop to a knee and promptly launch a fist into his junk....


I win!!!

Ha, whatever, Mike Martin can suck a big bag full of donkey parts (and as a Titan, probably will) just because everyone else fell in love with him doesn't mean I have to!!!

You know, I happened to peg a few players that the Texans actually selected.

Martin=Tack=Suck

2010 I picked Cushing and Barwin
2011 Unfortunately I got KJ rght
2012 This yr was Brandon Brooks

Thanks for the rep Senor Stan (I dont know how to do the squiggly line thingy.) LOL

So I get a few right too.
