Earl Cochran threw the first punch in the scuffle. Another tidbit from practice:
Quote:
"It was too peaceful the first day, so things kind of picked up today," joked Houston cornerback Fred Bennett, who intercepted Drew Brees on a deep pass over the middle intended for tight end Billy Miller. ...
Bennett said he thought the Texans' defense held up well against Brees and New Orleans' potent offense, but wondered how that would translate in a game.
"It's real strange competing against them all weekend," Bennett said. "At the same time, I'm sure they're not showing us everything that they have, so it's going to be exciting."
Running back Reggie Bush had a long run after a short pass over the middle on Wednesday, but the Texans won't have to worry about him anymore. Bush was limited in practice Thursday because his left knee was sore, and while he said he hoped to play Saturday, Payton said he probably wouldn't.
