The Texans make moves over the last two days that prove they belong where they are. Instead of waiting on Darryl Sharpton to come off PUP (Physically Unable to Perform). Then take three weeks to evaluate him. The Texans make a proactive move and sign inside linebacker Barrett Ruud. Cut the underperforming Trindon Holliday and bring offensive guard Cody White up from the practice squad. Aggressive moves made without hesitation. Holliday was the star of the team during per-season running back three touchdown on special teams. I figured Trindon would win us a game or two with his speed… He never got going averaging 19.4 yards on kick returns. FIFTIETH in the league that’s 50! There are thirty two teams in the NFL, back-ups were out performing Trindon.
His punt return skills were a little better,

The Jaguars had significant and key injuries to four starters. Two starting offensive linemen in left guard Eden Britton, and right tackle Cameron Bradfield. On defense they were without starters at outside linebacker Daryl Smith and at cornerback Derek Cox. Jacksonville was also without week one starting running back Rashad Jennings, leaving the duty to camp holdout Maurice Jones-Drew. Blaine Gabbert made gigantic steps forward in the off-season. He had played extremely well in a loss to Minnesota in a week one overtime loss.

H-Town from Luv Ya Blue to Bulls On Parade

  Written by: @BCsterr

  My H Town fanhood began with Luv Ya Blue. I loved the Rockets and liked the Astros but when it came to the Oilers they were second to none. I was the dude with the  Columbia blue Starter jacket & scull cap, folders etc… . Being a fan of Buds boys had its up & downs and when attendance was an issue he’d threaten to move the franchise . The 1st threat was a move to Jacksonville. As a fan I felt there was no way he’d actually do it , so it kinda went in 1 ear & out the other. As time went on we approached the 93 season as AFC favorites. The run-n-shoot offense was running on all cylinders. Though we had a decent record that year we were unable to secure home field advantage throughout the playoffs.

By halftime the scoreboard read 35-3. Continue reading
