Don't look now, but the Texan defense is...

He is primarily a baseball guy, that's his long-suit, that's his passion. And I get the genuine impression he's a real long-time Astros fan but I'm not much of a judge of that since I'm not really a baseball fan of any kind.
When it comes to football, like most anybody from N.Texas which he is, he's a Cowboys fan. Frankly I don't give a damn because I don't care about the Cowboys that much one way or the other, though I know lots of poeple in Houston despise anybody who's a Cowboys fan.
I don't even read Justice much, but I've listened to him on radio (both 610 and now 1560), and I've found him informative and entertaining, but he does like to brag about his connctions to other journalists and athletes. However much of the time I've found Justice to be self-effacing. So I dunno, but a lot of people don't like him, I know that.

I wish In-Justice would just go back to Washington. We sure as hell don't need him down here.

Bottom line, our defense has become respectable, and I believe is on the cusp of some very good things. This Sunday's game will be a great test, & judging from what San Fran was able to do, I like our chances to be competitive.

I think our defense this year is becoming the best Texans have had and will just keep getting better, we still have a lot of young and new players and coaches getting used to each other.

The tackling has gotten solid, the gap coverage is very good now, pressure on QB is improving, and we have enough forced turnovers to be winning the turnover battle.

We stop the run well and play tough is what we do on defense.

We are quick, not lots of big guys, and the guys are learning to trust each other and have some fun out there.

Each level of the defense has some depth and some pretty skilled players.

And, I just switch the channel when certain talking heads are on. no big deal.
