Krull is probably auditioning for another team.

Davis drops a few more , he's practice squad bound.

Right!

Lutz just took his first breath since Grupe kicked the last one.

Grupe misses the 60 yarder... he had the leg but not the accuracy there. What would Lutz have done ?

Then PS for when another TE gets injured.

I don't think we can sneak Krull onto the practice squad now Not after tonight's game.

Tough throw into coverage by Haener. I am sure he wished he had that one back.

Depends on what the "Groupie" is into.
Way back in the 60's the term was derogatory, describing young women (Now days "special" dudes) who follow these individuals aiming to initiate a sexual encounter with them or to offer them sex quid pro quo.

There was a big change this off-season in the TV packaging between FOX and CBS. In the recent past CBS has covered exclusively all AFC vs AFC games and NFC vs AFC games played at the AFC home. Visa versa for FOX and the NFC. That's all changing now. For the first time FOX will also be carrying AFC hosted games and they have several Texans games starting up their broadcast season. I think all of the attention being given to the Houston team was self promotion more than anything. It was clearly weighted toward the Texans, but I really think that explains their approach.

I guess.

He'll need to clean up on the drops. Hands needs work.
