Not sure what else he could say. Now if we could just convince Hoyer the game is one of those super secret closed practices we are in business. I sure hope O'Brien is right and Hoyer lights it up!
 
Bull parade droppings Clowney didn't know it was a year. He said, 'It's been a year since I've played.' on HK episode 3 or 4.
I can imagine you get tired of talking and answering the same old **** though.
 
We got to be Deaf divining loud IMO on every snap of the chiefs not just on third down im talking 1st and 2nd and 3rd and 4th we gotz to bring the noise
That's just out and out bad sportsmanship. Outside of that, it's bad decorum. Almost as bad as squealing and grunting with each stroke in a tennis match.

Yeah... so.

That's part of what gives Seattle their 12th man advantage, & helped KC earn loudest stadium.

We're just doing our part.



Death defying.

What the hell? Where do you get that? Players, coaches and teams all encourage it. The Texans used to have a score count and graphic display for crowd causes false starts and time outs. It's called home field advantage.
 
Wait, wait... my bad.

Being told McKinney was back at practice today.

Still, Mo was our coverage LB.

Mohamed being out really stinks to high hell. At least we have a plethora of slow plodding thumpers that can whiff trying to tackle Kelce and Charles... crap.
 
Greg Bailey @GregBailey13
Vince Wilfork: guys have told me it's wild here with the crowd. Can't wait to see it as a Texan.

#Texans Foster: I've worked on myself. Thought I was above help emotionally. Now I've opened up to people I love.

#Texans Foster, I've grown so much. I'm not perfect but I've been through tough times personally. But I'm my happiest emotionally.

#Texans Foster: this will be my best year. I have ground to make up but I felt quickest ever before the injury. #NFL

#Texans Foster: I am making progress. He will not give that timeline. Said, I've got orders, man. He wants to be close to 100 percent.

#Texans Foster: I have friend in Uganda. We do charity work there. New Mexico, too. It used to feel not genuine if I invited the media.

#Texans Foster: angry evil thoughts after injury creep in. But only for a few hours. Then I think about others who have bigger problems.

#Texans Foster casually said he had a tube coming out of his stomach about a week after surgery. It gets frustrating. Evil thoughts creep in

#Texans Foster: what you put into your body has a direct correlation into recovery. I'm not surprised with fast recovery.

#Texans Foster greeted the media with How are you? We want to know how YOU are.

#Texans Foster: there's a timetable but I'm not gonna tell you. Smile. Life happens with injury. We are ahead of schedule.

#Texans Wilfork: we practice so hard here that I'll be ready even without preseason game action.

#Texans Wilfork: Clowney is like my son. Big smile. Tells JD you can't do it all at once.

#Texans Polk: all I hear now is Bang Bang! I say Chicken and Shrimp. Nobody calls me Chris anymore.

#Texans O'Brien: it's a big, big challenge to face KC. It's time to clean up some things and go play.​

Arian Foster was very introspective today said he has more perspective now and has grown as a person. Seemed to be in a very good place

Arian Foster declined to offer a specific timetable for his return, but we've heard consistently late September to early October. Doctors are pleased with where I am.

Arian Foster: 'I grew up in rough circumstances, but it made me.'

Arian Foster: When you're the breadwinner of the family and the man of the house, everyone looking to you, it's a lot of pressure.'

Arian Foster: 'Once I worked on self-reflection and things that were self-destructive, once you're honest with yourself, there's a freedom.'

Arian Foster: 'I thought I was too cool to get counseling. Emotionally, it's a part of all of our growth.'

Arian Foster: 'I've grown so much. I may not be the most perfect person. I've been through tough times personally this past year.'

Arian Foster: 'I need to feel like I'm 100 percent as close to 100 percent' when asked what he needs to do to play in a game.

Arian Foster: 'I am making progress, so day by day it gets better. I'm feeling wonderful throughout the process.'

Arian Foster: 'It's a sacrifice. When I was a child, you want to become something. I was taught to get something you have to give something'

Texans rookie corner Kevin Johnson on playing in his first NFL game: 'There's a lot I can improve on in all facets of the game.'

Whitney Mercilus on Arian Foster: 'He's been progressing nicely. I can't wait for him to be back. He completes our offense.'

Whitney Mercilus on Akeem Dent: 'He's always prepared no matter what.'

Akeem Dent on Jamaal Charles: 'He presents a lot of threats.'

Akeem Dent on starting at linebacker with Mike Mohamed out: 'I'm just getting back into the routine and putting out my best performance.'

Quintin Demps said he'll have plenty of energy to return kicks in addition to playing safety

Texans safety Quintin Demps thanked Rick Smith and Bill O'Brien for having faith in him. Demps listed as starting safety, kick returner

Bill O'Brien on Quintin Demps: 'I respect him, he's a real pro. He's excited to play.'

Bill O'Brien on Quintin Demps: 'He's come in here and made a lot of plays. He's an instinctive guy, good speed, ball skills.'

Bill O'Brien: 'I want the freshest team possible on Sunday.'

Bill O'Brien on Patriots: 'I have a great amount of respect for them and wish them luck tonight.'

Bill O'Brien on Patriots: 'Some of my best friends coach there. I'm head coach of the Houston Texans. All I'm concerned about is Chiefs.'

Bill O'Brien on Patriots: 'I have tremendous amount of respect for Bill Belichick, Mr. Kraft, whole organization.'

Bill O'Brien on Chiefs' skill players: 'They have a lot of speed. We've got a big challenge there.'

Arian Foster ran well on a side field today, is moving quickly and decisively

Bill O'Brien on Akeem Dent: 'He's worked very hard to get back to where he's at now. He's done a good job, good guy in the locker room.'

Bill O'Brien on Kevin Johnson; 'I feel good. He's had a really good daily approach, works hard, is smart, has physical tools.'

Bill O'Brien said Mike Mohamed 'will miss some time. I feel bad for the guy personally.'

Mike Mohamed is in a walking boot, Akeem Dent is expected to start​
 
The line opened at 40.5, you really think these teams combine for 62 points? That's beyond insanity. I think we're in for a 16-13 type of smashmouth football game with hopefully the Texans coming out ahead.

It´s more a turnover festival i see, which will lead to much easy points for both teams...
 
Aaron Wilson ‏@AaronWilson_NFL
Bill O'Brien: 'Travis Kelce can be out wide, he can be in a bunch, we have to know where he's at, at all times.'

Bill O'Brien said rookie corner Kevin Johnson will play a lot against the Chiefs no matter who's on the field

Bill O'Brien: 'It went out in Dallas. We have a system if that happens. We react right away.'

Bill O'Brien on Duane Brown thumb injury: 'He's a tough guy. He says, 'I'm playing coach.' He'll be out there on Sunday.'

Bill O'Brien on two-point plays: 'We probably don't think much about it until the fourth quarter, unless some other things come up'

Bill O'Brien: 'We feel good about our kicking game.'​

Adam Wexler ‏@awexler
"I don't think that's going to be the easiest thing in the world, but he'll be out there," O'Brien on Duane Brown injury

#Texans O'Brien:"as far as going for 2 (pt conv.), we probably don't think much about it until 4th qtr, unless some other things come up"

#Texans O'Brien:"had to go inside b/c of the weather, but it was a good day of practice."​
 
I'm sure fisher will gut it out either u know the game plan for Alex is to get the ball out fast and dink and dunk we should have one saftey near the line at all times

I don't know who's going to cover there giant tight end ...???
