NFL Pre-Preseason Thread |OT| Milana Vayntrub presents "Wet Dreaming of a Super Bowl"

Godslay made me and captive agree on something. I am legit shook



I was not sure if I wanted "my" team on Hard Knocks and still undecided. Yes I get to see inside my team which is great for fans but I also see the negative. Distractions are greater. Also never forget Watt learning the Dolphins snap count by watching Hard Knocks.

On that note I don't think the Texans were forced to do it this year. McNair (owner) has always wanted to be on it. With all negative news surrounding the league they need some positive PR. Why not roll the team with the lowest criminal incident history out there with the leagues "golden boy", Captain America?

Im quoting because I just added a lot of shit and I am not being the last post on the page.

Arian Foster suffered a groin injury last night at the #Texans first fully padded practice, sources say.

Got dammit Arian. Really?

I think it had a negative effect on how the fans viewed Philbin, especially as a first year head coach. At the same time we already hated Ireland and some saw him a little different after the show aired. In the end the wins are what matters though so it's awesome getting an inside look on your team. I still have all the episodes on my DVR. I watch them every now and then.

Oh I like Hard Knocks as a program. Really well put together and gave us this:

Arian Foster's groin injury is serious in nature. Source said it should require surgery & may be candidate for IR w/ designation for return.

Damn. That would be a big hit to the Texans' already improbable chances of dethroning the Colts this season.

Thank Tebow I have my Packers to fall back on
 
The eagles are like he Russians in Rocky 4. Have all the science you want, in the end it's about leadership and heart. Who is the leader of a team that replaces half their starters?
 
I mean come the fuck on... Why the fuck does Arian have the same shit EVERY FUCKING TIME?!

Fucking shit...



Bench Foster for James Harden or RIOT!
 
No quarterback, no running back, lose their best wide out to a division rival, best offensive weapon plays on the defensive line. - #BOB

I would say the leaders on this team are Kelce, Celek, Peters, Jenkins, Ryans, and Barwin. Matthews seems like he could grow into a leader this year too. And obviously whichever QB ends up becoming our starter will be counted on to lead.

pretty easy actually, one of or combination of the following:

he doesn't take care of himself in the offseason
he isn't stretching or getting stretched properly
his soft tissue is made out of old rubber bands. You know the kind, the ones you put in the that drawer like 10 years ago, and then when you finally need one you are all excited about knowing exactly were some are, only to open the drawer and find that they are all dried and brittle and when you apply even the most light of stretching to them, they snap in half? Yea, that's Arian Fosters soft tissue.

God dammit. Not even preseason yet and I need a drink. God bless the cycle I guess...

This is a significant injury for Arian Foster. Can confirm, as @jaysonbraddock said, there's concern it will require groin surgery. #Texans


Im gonna go visit Jak
 
...so again, keenum was like a second year rookie at that point, so yea putting him on the field to find out what they had would have been the best move. As you previously stated it is beneficial for QBs to get some bench time. Clearly if Keenum was ready to start out of college, he would have been drafted. Yet he wasn't. We had already seen what Yates could do when Schaub got hurt, no one had seen anything from Keenum on the field other than brief preseason stuff. Schaub was shot, as time has now told us because he was traded to Oakland and subsequently cut by Oakland this year. The team was going nowhere, so yea putting in Keenum was the best move, yet Kubiaks loyalty got the best of him, time and time again, as evidence by the fact that Kubes was the one that denied signing Peyton Manning because "schaub was the man"

Also just because someone has a contract doesn't mean jack and squat in the NFL.


your not going to convince me otherwise, so you might as well stop responding. Under no circumstances should schaub have been put back in any game, save for injury, after throwing multiple pick sixes in like 5 straight games.

Also, enjoy your Kubes this year.

good god, I thought that was schaub for a minute.

You're telling me that the coaching staff and the Texan's leadership didn't know what they had in Keenum? They sat there and watched him for 2 years. I think after 2 years they should have a good idea whether or not he could shoulder the load of being a starting QB in the league.

Yes, game time situations are unpredictable and different QBs respond differently. Odds are most QBs aren't magically going to morph into something different than what the team has evaluated them as. It really doesn't work that way.

Contracts do matter. A team is going to give additional leeway to higher paid investments before jettisoning that investment. Simply because the penalties for releasing that investment are typically higher and more impactful.

Godslay made me and captive agree on something. I am legit shook

That's because you guys don't take any ownership of what your team does besides blaming everything on Kubes. Nobody else in Texan's history has made a negative decision besides Kubiak. It's a classic scapegoat.

The hero the Texans need

Because Kubiak had final say on personnel, including contracts his entire time here. I do put the blame for that on McNair. Wait maybe Kubiaks arrogance and bad decision making is all Dom Capers fault. Fuck you Dom!
