Interesting that you highlighted some of the comments in the article and assign it to Smith, but didn't touch the following. Who else should take a bow with Smith? I still don't understand why we are still playing this game of "Pin the Blame". Failures by Smith and O'Brien got the Texans to this point.
"It's definitely a lot easier when you feel like the coaches trust you more and you don't have to look over your shoulder," Bouye said. "This year, was more about focusing on what I can do to help the team and not worry about this or that.
"I've learned the scheme, and that's why the plays are starting to come. I got much better from a technique standpoint and physically. My ceiling is still high."
The coaches must've trusted him, because they played Bouye more than any CB. Are you saying RAC didn't do a good job with Bouye when the next statement is he got much better from a technique standpoint.
That article is kind of double speak in my mind. Or maybe Bouye wasn't clear with his thoughts. One thing is for sure now Bouye wanted to comeback to the Texans.
