I'm a little disappointed they don't go to the TE's more. Dreesen and Casey are not exactly chopped liver but ever since OD went down, Schaub just doesn't seem to look that way much any more...

could be where the plays are called is where ball is thrown. maybe other guys being given a chance before going to newer TE's. But sure, OD is missed, just like the two guards are missed, or Wilson missed at safety.

They obviously go into games with a different game plan without OD. I dont know if its because they dont trust dreesen or Casey but TE is a big part of our offense. We cant just completely abandon those TE screens completely because they get at least 5 yards almost everytime its called.

I've been pondering the same things since OD went down. I'd have like to seen how Casey would have handled plays called to him or similar to the routes Daniels runs. All we heard out of training camp was how he caught everything thrown to him.

“It’s the third ACL (tear) that I’ve had in my life, so I kind of know the ropes a little bit, so that’s helped out,” he said. “I’m four months out of surgery now. I’ve been ahead of schedule. (The trainers) have been trying to hold me back a little bit because we don’t have to rush. We don’t have huge time constraints. I should be full-go by the middle of summer — probably in May or June.
“I definitely have no doubt that I’ll be back and, if not better, just as strong.” http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news;_yl...=pfw&type=lgns ************************************************* For those of you going boo-hoo-hoo for OD because he dosent have a contract, here's a revelation - last years knee injury makes him a 3-time loser with that sort of injury. In other words he spend much of last year complaining he couldn't work out a contract with the Texans and apparently rejecting offers that reportedly included G.Money of 'bout 15 M after already having 2 knee problems in his career and therefor full knowing (or should be knowing) just how tenuous the career of a football player can be. Now you've put yourself in the position of having to deal contract in the midst of recovering from your third knee, a time of great uncertainty in the NFL because of no league contract, and a year after the Texans just drafted 2 more TEs. I'm sorry but gotta say: OD you are even dumber than I thought you were ! |

3 ACL tears. That means at least 2 to the same knee (could even be 3). I suspect that the odds in Vegas would be pretty high on him coming back at anything approaching pro bowl level any time soon and very likely never. My guess is that we keep him this year and move on from him next year. Dang good TE, but like 100s of players before him, injuries can bring a halt/slowdown to the career. Hopefully Joe or Casey will pan out for us.

Dumb? Maybe. But he sure made us better when he was on the field.

Owen Daniels will be live in studio with "Jim Rome Burning" Wednesday 03/24/10 @ 3:30 c.s.t. Might prove interesting.
