So, to recap your points, John Simon stands around with his thumb up his ass whenever a running back makes a catch on a screen or out in the flat because it's not his job to run down the ballcarrier and, besides, teams never throw the ball to the backs against the Texans anyway. Great analysis Barrett.

Nice straw man Bob. The only difference is you actually tried to make the idiotic points I recapped. Now if your original analysis was half as smart as your sarcasm, then you probably would have had something to add to the discussion of Texans FAs.

Bottom line. John Simon is a waste at LB who can't cover backs and I will enjoy like crazy watching Miller or Hunt zoom past him for first downs against the Colts. May he have the same success in Indy that Andre Johnson had.

I'll just add that the Texans' OLBs are in fact dropped into coverage more often than never. I've never really understood this very well, why that would be part of a package, but it does happen. Perhaps the coaching changes will result in a change of strategy here, or maybe the team will get serious about the safety position for once in its existence.

On an unrelated note I knew that BO sucked at football, what I didn't know is that he's a whiny little pussy.

I also like how Cleveland - Cleveland! - had to lead Rick Smith by the hand out of the darkness and into the light. I wonder what sort of master plan that genius had in his back pocket had the Browns not done his thinking for him.
