Houston Texans Pre-Season 2015 - Hoyer's The Starter....By GAWD KING!!!

Team is going 7-9 just based on the fact that they play Tenn and Jacksonville. Nice to see JD out there today, him and Watt are going to be fun to watch :smokin
Also Fitz gets his throws tipped way too many damn times, they list him at 6'2 but dude is out there like he's 5'8 or some ****
 
It's crazy/funny how bad the Texans are, and then how much worse the Jags and Titans are lol

They were talking about this on the radio the other day, basically saying out the Texans are a cut above all the really really bad teams :lol: (Raiders, Titans, Jags, ********, Jets, and whoever else). Basically the "best worst team", which does scream 7-9. Oh well, **** it, let's go 10-6 :lol: :rolleyes
 
Texans add LB Zac Diles, cut CB Elbert Mack

The Texans signed linebacker Zac Diles and released cornerback Elbert Mack, reports the Houston Chronicle. Diles also played for Houston from 2007-10, recording 60-plus tackles three times.
 
Looks like Tarpinian is a no go for Sunday, which stinks cause he's solid on D and very good special teams
 
Cushing likely to play Sunday, Clowney probably won’t due to illness


Thumbs up for Brian Cushing but thumbs down for Jadeveon Clowney? That’s what coach Bill O’Brien seemed to be saying Friday when he discussed his two linebackers’ prospects of playing against Philadelphia. Although a final decision won’t be made until Sunday morning, Cushing seems more likely to be active than the rookie Clowney, who apparently has a bad case of the flu.

“I wouldn’t say it looks very good,” O’Brien conceded when questioned about the top NFL draft pick’s chances of recovering sufficiently from an undisclosed illness by kickoff. “We’ll see how he is tomorrow, but that’s how I feel today.”

At least it’s not Clowney’s surgically repaired knee that’s potentially holding him back. He got in for more than 30 plays against Tennessee in Nashville last weekend after missing six games because of a meniscus tear suffered in the season-opener that required an arthroscopic procedure.

Cushing, however, practiced Friday for the first time since before the Monday-night game in Pittsburgh and said his left knee was feeling much better. He sat out against the Titans after experiencing pain and weakness – he’s undergone major season-ending operations on the joint in each of the last two seasons – and there has been speculation that he wouldn’t return until the Texans’ next game, Nov. 16 in Cleveland.


O’Brien said Cushing was “moving around pretty good out there” and Cushing said he “felt really good,” adding: “Obviously, I want to play and I hope to play, and the coaches want me to play. That’s the plan. But there’s a lot of things that come into account and we have to make the best decision for everyone.

“I love playing. I want to be out there. But at the same time I want to play at my best level and have a good rest of the year. We’ve got to figure out a formula for that to happen.”

The Texans will definitely be without the services of another inside linebacker, Jeff Tarpinian, for the second game in a row. He also has a knee issue and was officially listed as “out” on Friday’s injury report. Both Cushing and Clowney were questionable, as was cornerback Darryl Morris.

Asked if Clowney’s issues are “frustrating,” O’Brien replied: “Nope, not one bit. It’s the National Football League, you know what I mean? Injuries occur. Next guy steps up and plays. That’s part of the job in the NFL. (That’s why) you have a 53-man roster and you try to build depth at every position.”
 
Cushing has to play...

He's on the ticket for tomorrow's game haha

Yea it stinks. One thing though as far as Cushing goes, I'm actually less concerned about him not being in the lineup than Tarpinian. Cushing needs a lengthy layoff. I know he's dying to be out there, but if he's not healthy, he can't help.

What's up when Posey not playing though???

I'm sitting much closer than my normal seats today. Seeing the zip on Fitz's warm ups passes compared to Mallett is like Jamie Moyer vs Randy Johnson haha
 
This team sucks, and now the increase in injures doesn't help one bit. Watt, Rolle, Merci, Hopkins, Foster, and Hal tried to save us, but the rest of the team didn't. Hate these games where there's a legit shot at winning, and then we nosedive. Either the O-line sucks, Fitz sucks, or both. No way should Andre only have 2 catches. You have to make a change heading into the bye week, regardless of what happens. Get Mallett ready and and go for it.
 
Fitzpatrick is really bad. There's no threat to do anything with him at QB. At least give mallet a shot
 
I was about to ask why our TEs aren't involved in the offense, but then I remembered Fitz/the O-line are dookie cheeks and it doesn't matter.

Also, the standings
View media item 1243991Let's just saw we have playoff goals....that's on ungodly amount of teams we'd have to jump. Basically, you have to not lose another game for the rest of the season, and hope more than half of those teams start losing

BOB has to stop being stubborn and realize that Fitz hurts you more than he helps you. He had some nice scrambles today, which makes me think BOB is afraid to throw Mallet out there due to the protection. At this point this team isn't going to the playoffs, it's a long shot. I'd rather them just put Mallet in there and ride out the season with him.
 
We have to make a QB change over the bye week. Although I'm terrified mallett skill look good for 3 games, we don't address QB in the off-season, then he sucks next year
 
It's crazy how close we are to being a playoff contender with such a bad team.

Gotta get a QB who doesn't throw change ups and just average linebacker play lol
 
Mallett is a FA agent at the end of the year, so we have to find out if he can play right?
 
^We have one of the worst starting QBs and O-lines, I think that has something to do with that regardless :lol:
