Personal preference. I do watch the league and understand what's going on, but I'm Bruce Matthews old school when it comes to LS. The comment wasn't made out of ignorance as you suggest. Would rather have the backup C/G (whose active on game day) doing it.
What's ridiculous is how people latch on to their favorites and block out the big picture. Holliday has two returns for TD and 4 KO returns for 20+. That's special. He also had a fumble that was returned for TD and a muff on the sideline in the NO game that would have been another fumble had...
Not trying to paint a 'doomsday' scenario (your words). But the point is given the Texans 2013 FA situation, tying up that much in Arian and Mario could be very cap unhealthy down the line. The teams you list have similar issues as the Texans. Chip away.
No. Mario's $14 million base is already included in La Canfora's number (as are the other top 50 salaries on the Texans). Nowhere did I say his deal has to be reworked. I said a contract like his is one that's typically reworked to save cap space (if the team intends to keep a high priced...
Spoke to a reliable source about this last night. Didn't get 100% confirmation but I'm leaning towards an error on those websites.
Going from memory (so take it fwiw), you can't be removed from IR without first passing a physical and then being waived or released, OR be waived-injured or...
The big difference being the secondary.
Opening week 2009 against the Jets, starting secondary: Bennett and D-Rob at corner, Barber and Nick Ferguson at safety
And of course Arian Foster was still on the ps
Of course when you think of Jerry Rice, you think of the 49ers. The fact is that NFL players don't go into the hall as 'a 49er,' (or anything else). They go in as themselves wearing a yellow jacket.
Obviously the team exhibit has to show one or more HOF players from that franchise...
No. The bust hall has the bust of the player with a placard below listing all the teams the player played for.
There's another hall with team displays and one that caused a stir a few years ago is the picture of Earl in Houston Oilers uniform at the Titans display.
If you go to the...
a lot of players have 'retired as Texans.' (every one that's been cut/released/waived or retired that didn't go on to play for another team).
Glenn's career record will always show New Orleans as the last NFL team he played for regardless of this purely symbolic gesture.
This reminds me...
On some of the positions, including RB, they are asking people to vote for two players and they are counting both votes. That means if everyone voted for Earl and another player, the most votes Earl could get is 50% and the 'scrubs' would split the other 50% of the vote.
The fact Earl has...
Voting for the offensive tackles is up. Read the ballot and weep.
They left David Williams off for some reason. He wasn't just famous for babygate, he turned into a pretty good tackle I thought....
This is part of a larger effort to select Houston's all time pro football team. Voting is up for four positions now. I have them all linked at the bottom of this article for one stop shopping if you haven't voted on the other positions yet...
The number of practices open to fans in August has diddly squat to do with Sunday performance during the season. That's immaterial...
Open practices is about fan access to team. I know people in different cities that go out to their team's training camps without having to plan in...
re: 'breakout'
I was talking about things like Schaub's 4770 yards which is 6th best ever in the NFL, his 29/15 TD-Int ratio, the team's top ten finish in points scored for the first time ever, the Texans ability to put up passing yards by the bushel even though everyone knew they couldn't...
