I'm no authority on Oline play but many who are consider both Manz & Fulton to be better centers than Nick Martin and feel that if he's starting at all it should be at guard and not center but clearly O'Brien likes him.
Frankly I don't know what position O'Brien can accurately evaluate ?

At least we now know where all this free cap money is going. They're going to give top 5 money to bottom 5 players.

PFF had Martin ranked 5th in the division at his position. You'll note that there are only 4 teams. Yet he ranked 5th.

There is still a buzz going on about this game:

Saints Off Wild Win

The Saints were 30-28 winners at home Monday night as touchdown favorites over Houston in quite possibly the most entertaining game we might see all season. In fact, it was the first time in Monday Night Football a lead changed more than once in the final minute of the fourth quarter.

I've heard the game described as a "heartbreaker" to Texan fans. Oddly, I didn't have the heartbreak feeling after this one. I felt the Texans gave as good an effort as they could have in a game they weren't supposed to win. But, here's hoping that the Texans keep giving us entertaining games and winning a few of them.....
