Wait till the texans defense is poor next year and the team misses the playoffs.

Guess who will be public enemy number 1.


Have a nice season wade. Its amazing he dumps ryans but put up with zach Thomas, bradie James and Keith brooking for 4 years......someone explain that to me because it has to be about more than weight.

Dunno WTF Houston is thinking. I thought he started slow but got better as the year went on. I don't even think they have a young replacement in house.

Maybe this'll be like Ernie Sims where he doesn't have much left.

Maybe they're thinking they got a slow 2 down LB who has suffered through one of the worst injuries a football player can have, and that he doesnt fit the scheme. I doubt much, if any of their success defensively last year had anything to do with him.

They got something for him, IMO they probably fleeced Philly

Dbair's MO:

1) praise every cowboy move

2) Mad talk shit about any NFC east rival's moves.

3) Disregard any success of an NFC east rival. Even something petty like winning the super bowl.

4) try to be funny at times

Which no matter how many times you stooges say it, doesnt make it true. Because I dont.

2) Mad talk shit about any NFC east rival's moves.

How have I been talking shit about anyone else's moves? I thought the Redskins gave up too much to move up 4 spots for RGIII, and alot of people agree. I dont think the Eagles trade for Ryans was a coup because he hasnt played as well the last two yrs and is coming off a major, major injury that few players ever recover fully from.

3) Disregard any success of an NFC east rival. Even something petty like winning the super bowl.

I gave them (Giants) props for winning the super bowl, I just dont think they were a very good team compared to others that have won it. Hence why I've said they are the "worst super bowl winning team ever". The record and their stats back that up. It isnt some outlandish idea. The only team I think is close to them in that regard is the 87 strike Redskins team.

He wasn't slow. If anything he was an undersized quick guy. And what if he was only a two-down LB because they had to limit his snaps early in the year? Or because Cushing was too good to take off the field.

Not saying it's a coup or this puts the Eagles in the Superbowl, but they might have got a good player who fits their scheme on the cheap. Maybe he'll never be what he was, though.

He might be a good player, big might though. Achilles injuries are pretty severe. I cant think of a single example of a guy who ruptured/tore it and came back eventually at anywhere close to what they were
