Already two things that I dreaded seeing - Chris Clark sucking and Tyler Ervin on the punt return.

Seriously, there is no mfer on any practice squad anywhere that is better than Chris Clark? Seriously? He is to line play what BO is to quarterbacking.

Also, while I'm complaining, why in tf is Simon on the active roster if he can't play today?

[Arky]

L Miller for 2.

Oy, pass to Fuller off the mark, inc. Brings up 3rd and 8.

Pass to Mumph broken up, inc. Texans will have to punt.
