I understand these players are fighting for their jobs hence trying to make something out of nothing in preseason but once things get rolling that has to stop. Once you get the first down just go down. Make them earn their turnovers the hard way. It also mitigates the risk of injuries. It's starting to get silly.

Tell that to Graham.... The guy that drags two corners and a safety with him, never goes down, then gets in their face and pounds the ball with his hands...

However if Hartley is going to be our kicker... I agree.... Keep him 45+ yards out.. he is terrible with in 30 yards.

Offense - pretty much what i expect to see out of them, minus the fumbles - its great joe morgan wanted to fight for the yards, but at some point you have to get down when the texans are trying to rip the ball. no brainer

Graham caught a 10 yard floater pass and turned into a 40 yard plus catch, pushing texans defenders out the way (shockey vs miami 2009) - are we twins? I thought of the exact same Shockey play

Special mention - SCOTT SHANLE!!! for nearly making me have a heart attack when he came flying into the backfield loved it.

Scrub refs - First word is all they are, scrubs, They penalized scott shanle for a PI call that was never there, which gave the texans the TD instead of 4th down and then missed the exact same call when it happened to colston
yes, again!
