They say Clowney had a knee injury during the game..... Damn!

[chuck]

I wonder if we'll ever get a true account of what's up with Clowney.

[Arky]

There's a good chance the Texans will have a 1 game lead over the Colts by the end of the day. They'll share the AFCS lead with the Titans. Titans turned some heads today with the upset of the Chiefs....

Kudos to Mike Vrabel for getting something out of Brooks Reed. I guess it is a contract year for Reed, too.

O'Brien understandably has little confidence in Fitzpatrick throwing the ball downfield. Won't be long before he gives him the dreaded 'vote of confidence'.
