My time in Houston was great, thank my teammates, my fans.

Damn this sucks. Brian Cushing said on his twitter a couple of days ago that the locker room won't be the same without Leach. I don't know who's going to be that guy next, but I sure do hope the Texans know what they're doing.
 
This is one of the reasons I dislike twatter. What a crappy way to get bad news.

I'm DEFINITELY getting Ray Rice in every fantasy league. As if he wasnt a beast anyway.

Thanks, Vonta. You were the heart and soul, and we will regret this very heavily.
 
Ah, well. Sad to see him go.

I had seen in another forum where some Raven fans were drooling over him and saying that Rice would lead the league in rushing if they got him.
 
I get to still see him ever Sunday! He'll fit in great in Baltimore. He's a tough SOB. They have a team of tough SOBs.
 
Oh well , he's the same guy who was FB the year before when we couldn't gain a foot of fourth down .

This just in ... James Casey has decided it's time to hold out ... jk . :hurrah:

Maybe we can steal hem away at the last second like we did with Kevin Walter. Hopefully its a verbal agreement and not a signature just yet. I hope someone does something amazing to keep him.
 
I am a big Vonta fan, he is a monster in short yardage, always gives it his all when in the game including on special teams. He did have an impact on Fosters success but many of Fosters yards including some of his longest run came out of a single back set where he simply made things happen with his feet. I wanted Vonta back at the right price due to his work ethic and locker room popularity but given the choice between spending on Joseph and Manning and saving money for Vonta I would choose the back end help every time. Rick Smith and the rest of the FO need to graciously say thanks to Vonta and get back on the phones and find a NT of LB who wants the money Vonta left behind.
 
Peace vonta.

I hope we crush you when we play baltimore.
May you meet Cushing in the hole and get your head cracked.
 
I'm fine with the three potential full backs we have on the roster as of now.

I'm hoping Casey goes ahead a solidifies himself there and I think our offense will be able to breathe a bit better because of it.
 
At least I can watch the first game of the season from last year and watch the Indianapolis line backers step out of his way in the second half.

Also, this should teach us fans a lesson about voting one of our players into the Pro Bowl during a contract year.
 
Sucks but Leach isn't the sole reason Foster had a great season. Obviously it's a hit to our running game but I doubt it suffers too much. Also a pretty hefty contract for a FB. With the money we have invested in Joseph and Manning along with signing first round picks, the Texans may not have had the cap room to match that contract.

I doubt we bring in a fb like that. I think they just go with Casey.

I don't see McClain costing a whole lot less than leach.

According to CBS Sports, McLain signed with Denver. I posted a link a couple of posts ago.
EDIT: I guess CBS Sports screwed the pooch. Sorry for the misinformation.
 
Well Kubiak thinks his ZBS is plug in and get good results so lets see. We just lost a major playmaker for our run game IMO.
 
That's to much money for just a battering ram. If Casey can become an adequate blocker with his abilities we'll be just fine.
 
Walter Football still shows McClain as a FA and I thought I just saw him as a FA on NFLN. But these guys don't necessarily update that quickly.
