Yikes.

Dunta Robinson and Chester Pitts are clear team spokesmen and locker room leaders. Confident and poised, these two have set a good tone in the locker room.

Two isn't enough, though. But the good news for Texans fans is there are a host of others whose leadership should show even more this season.

To this point, Mario Williams hasn't been capable of leading his teammates anywhere. For one, it's not his personality and secondly, he has been busy establishing an identity in the league.

DeMeco Ryans, Eric Winston and Owen Daniels have more developed leadership skills, but again, we're talking about guys who have played only three seasons in the league and have never been on a winning team at this level.

3 of the 6 he cites as leaders are under intense contract disputes.

Anytime you go from a non winning team to a winning team, there will be a bit of release, if you will.

Why shouldn't the entire defense have been under intense pressure. They were not good. If they were not under pressure we would be talking about Kubiak being too lax.

He is now on a defense that has its team pretty much solidified. He is playing along side the likes of Cortland Finnegan(tidbit: got toasted by AJ, but still probowler), Michael Griffin, and Chris Hope and one of the top defenses in the league last year. I would imagine he wouldn't have much pressure on him to be "the guy". His statement just proves to me that he could not handle the pressure of being a starter.

And as far as being critical of my team. Our defense was horrible when he was here, however he was not apart of the solution (he was apart of the problem; which is why he is on another team that he doesn't have to start on.)

And like someone else stated, a change of scenery may be just what he needs to revive his career.
