Rumor: Texans trying to Trade DJ

BOB is starting to grow on me.

Here's more on the story Roy talked about, with audio from O'Brien: http://www.houstonpress.com/news/dj-...-audio-7431332

Curious if J.J. Watt had done that what O'Brien's reaction would have been? Of course, J.J. actually does play special teams (ask Cleveland's punter) so it's a moot point.

I can't imagine he cares that much if his top players play special teams. He cares if a player thinks it's up to them if they play special teams. NFL coaches are control freaks and any player that bows up to the new coach like that is an idiot.

If you listen to the audio, O'Brien's opinion was that JJ has been a exceptional player, but still acts as if nothing he has done in the past assures him. He continues to grow and develop into an even better player even though there is the opinion that he is the best player in the NFL.
