Texans claim Jason Allen

[Nconroe]

Allen was a first round draft, 16th pick in 2006, by a previous coaching regime and was starting two weeks ago, started first seven games this year, somehow got in the dog house, apparently for inconsistency.

he has three interceptions this year , so must have some skills. Was good on special teams as well.

6;1", 200 pounds, spot starter before this year when he apparently won starting job during training camp. 27years old, healthy.

sounds better than Harris to me. guess we will see.

Apparently Barber injured his knee in practice Tuesday, had micro surgery yesterday, on IR today, or something like that.

Wonder if any other moves are coming?

[Fonz the Boss]

I dont care who he is just plug him in for KJ. Maybe he'll be this year's Bernie Pollard.

Does this mean you won't be voting for KJ this year to go Honolulu as part of the Pro-Bowl squad ?

The odds are against it. I would vote for him to go to Honolulu as part of the "Get junk-punched by a Giant Samoan for sucking so bad" squad, however.

Hey, I have howled over the play of KJ too, but consider that both CB's have almost no help over the top and a dline that couldn't put a rush on a piece of cake. A Pro Bowl CB would have trouble in that environment. That whole house of cards is falling apart.

[superbowlbound]

you're right, NBT, and he does get a little better every week. I'm rather surprised that he's only given up 4 touchdowns on the season. Seemed like he gave up 2 in the chargers game alone.
