Jacques Reeves
Not trying to start another neg. thread...but he looked really bad tonight. Gave up big play after big play.
Those cowgirl fans were right about him giving up the big play....damn ps: Reeves can not tackle either.

Well, at least on that first big play he gave up his only mistake was not turning to find the ball. His coverage was pretty good otherwise as he stayed with the receiver most of the way (he caught up a bit at the end since the ball was underthrown).
I hate that such a contract was given to a guy that might not work out...but if Molden can develop into a decent CB or Dunta comes back and returns to form, that contract will only hurt our cap figures and not hurt us on the field.

I'm going to be putting up a new article on the site's front page later today that gets after Reeves and the team's continued suckage at signing UFAs from other teams.
It's not that I think Reeves is bad, he is just grossly overpaid... not unlike most of the team's other big money UFAs. It's tough saying this just two preseason games into his career as a member of the Texans (it is WAY too early to make much of anything we've seen in the preseason, good or bad), but I'll be surprised if Reeves is still on the roster Week 1 of next season.

Okay, I'll try to be optimistic for time being on our CB's, they all got beat by Drew Brees on passes. I thought Reeves was keeping close to his man, not really beaten. He didn't get up his hands at the right time and for a deep pass , where was the deep Safety help? And, maybe he's gotta practice his tackling some more. Still second practice game only.
And UFA's, being optimistic, up to this year, I thought strategy was build depth for all positions due to we were a little short on cap space compared to some teams. Perhaps next year we can go after a sure fire UFA difference maker or two. is there a sure fire player with unexpected inuries, so on. lots of teams spend big on UFA's with poor results.

It is a good point about Brees and the Saints passing game as a whole... they are pretty darn good in that department, so over-reaction two weeks into preseason is a definite possibility here, I'll admit to that.

I'd much prefer the Texans re-sign what they have and just keep building through the draft. They'll need plenty of reserves to retain guys like Dunta, Owen, and Winston. It helps to get a little lucky on cheap UFAs like Andre Davis and Will Demps, too, but the big spending rarely pays off, so I'm still preaching abstinence here.

Reeves
I may get creamed for saying this, but I didn't think Reeves looked too terribly bad on Sunday, at least not compared to Bennett. Bennett was getting lit up all day long. Reeves gave up some passes, but he seemed to be in good position, and a couple I thought he was in perfect position and unfortunately there was just a great throw and catch.
also, the middle of our defense about 7 yards deep was freaking wide open all game long (at least all of the first half). to me that means the coordinator was missing something and calling the wrong defenses. maybe it was a player's fault, but it seemed to happen something like 10 times in the first half. completely unacceptable

I agree about Reeves. I'd be willing to bet the coaches graded him higher than Bennett last week. I hate to say it, but right now the backfield may actually be our strongest defensive unit. Scary, isn't it?
