yeah we have such a great run blocking line that when carr takes his drop to hand the ball off to davis u can almost always gurantee that you'll see a DL that has already blown through our (great) OL, i can remember many times where where carr was lucky to even hand the ball to Davis because a DL was on him and Davis, now tell me i'm lying and i'll tell you your a liar !
 
DD needs to stay healthy, that is his only problem. Aside from that he runs hard, is quick, weighs 220# and he has good hands.

Seems logical to me that our offensive line would be better this year simply for the fact that our line as a whole will be in it's second year of a new system. Chester Pitts will be in the second year of his new position. Seth Wand will be in the second year of LT and only his second in the NFL. Todd Wade will be in his second year with the team. McKinney and Wiegert, I like their experience and hope they along with the youngsters/new additions on the offensive line will provide some effective chemistry.

This will be the year the line will come together in training camp or this year in training camp the line will be reconfigured.

Logic is an unexact science but I would hope to see marked improvement this year with our O-line.

Davenport is the better deal for a pounder type back.

Davenport defecates in girls dorm room closet clothes hampers. Besides that inexplicable incident, our offensive line is being coached to block like Denver's o-line so the Texans are not really in the market, necessarily, for a pounder type back. I still think they will not waste any additional money on a position they can easily fill in the draft for a lot less risk.

I think this guy is just a one year wonder like Olandis Gary was...Honestly, I'd rather keep Wells or draft a guy like Eric Shelton in the 3rd...
I have been saying that we should draft Shelton since the middle of the college season.

Oh man all right look Line is not good D is ok great passing game and a bad RB. We have to produce on the ground if we want to take the next step to being a great team if that means getting better O-Linemen fine, were we disagree is everyone on here says "Its the lines fault" Well maybe just maybe its DD fault if he was faster maybe he could hit the hole they create or if he was bigger he could make his own hole! Honestly he isn’t a good-looking runner to me you hardly see him run the ball he just gets tackled. Great backs even with a crappy O line make an impressive play even if they don’t get yards and I have YET! To see that from him so I am not even going to comment on the RB again but I am going to be telling yallI Told ya in a so few years!
:) until then say whatever you want about me or the Texans running game.
 
well i can say the texasn had a 12th ranked running game last season, i can say LT and D.D stats from 2004 are VERY simular, ya say even bad backs can make something happen with a bad line ??? Ok well than why was portis so incredible in Denver and NOT so incredible in Washignton,,,,hmmm,,,lets think,,,,,maybe the o-line ? just maybe ! :hmmm:
 
That guy (like nearly all Denver RB's) is a system RB. Anywhere else he would be any other over weight RB. What is wrong with D.D.? I was under the impression that he was a very good RB>
 
Supposedly he's close to being traded to the Browns for DE Ebenezer Ekuban straight up... check out CBS Sportsline.
