Let's try it again. How many times can you say that...typically the team would have drove all the way down the field and ran the clock out. However, we have been given another shot...

I liked it better when Clowney wasn't playing. We could all fantasize about his being worth a shit.

As much as I wanna believe that Clowney would be the savior he has been a rotational player at best.

I can only hope that he will get better with time. JJ has been getting doubled and tripled all day with no help

Mallett couldn't hit the broad side of a barn today, we would have been better off with Fitz. Couple more games like this and they can dust Savage off and send him out there for a start/tryout.

Yeah, Mallet definitely has potential, however if inconsistency is his demon, then I'd rather cut my losses now. I can't deal with another inconsistent QB.

BTW completely unrelated comment, I liked undrafted Arian Foster more than Star RB Arian Foster...my personal issue...he seems too damned uninterested to me...

The Texans passed the ball 45 times for a total of I think it was 189 yards. That is damn near impossible to do.

I might give Mallett another start but unless he looks like Joe Montana I would definitely want to see Savage unless he's completely lost in practice.

Oh, and I like any kind of Arian Foster except the injured one. I don't care for that one at all.

The knock on Mallett before today was lack of accuracy. Obviously that is an accurate knock. I think there were a dozen plays where he just threw it as hard as he could at a general area of the field. The worst was the play they weren't sure whether he overthrew AJ by a lot or Demeris by a little. I'd definitely like to see him play with Arian before I move on to Savage. But either way, I love that we are 70 plays closer to knowing if we need to move on from Mallett. Knowing the answer to that question (and the same about Mallett) is the 2nd most important thing to me. The first is whether O'Brien can coach and I feel good about that.
