Morgan aka Moe is my favorite Texans cheerleader. She should be hired by CSN Houston to do the weekly highlights.

Thought you were suppose to be posting less now?

Why? I have nothing to do until my foot surgery next Thursday on October 3. I'm bored and in a lot of pain.

Because you said you would.

I didn't think I could withstand the pain sitting on an old office chair I was using in my room. It was hurting my broken right foot even worse just typing on the computer from where I had it located before. I can access my PC while on the couch now. I had the entire system moved to the living room to be more comfortable.



DeAndre Hopkins rookie watch
Game 1 at San Diego: 5 receptions for 66 yards
Game 2 vs. Tennessee: 7 receptions for 117 yards and 1 TD
Game 3 at Baltimore: 6 receptions for 60 yards

I'm actually surprised DeAndre Hopkins even produced anything versus the Ravens. 6 for 60 is better than what I thought he had watching the game. Without our all pro left tackle Duane Brown, the pass protection for Matt Schaub was horrendous as expected against a solid Ravens defense. Terrell Suggs and Elvis Dumervil were constantly getting good pressure off the edge against our inexperienced offensive tackles.

Hopkins is still on pace for nearly 1,300 receiving yards this season. At the very least I'll be happy with 1,000 receiving yards as a rookie. Especially on a run-first team with a much maligned quarterback like Matt Schaub. Imagine if DeAndre Hopkins were playing with the Broncos, Packers, Patriots, Saints, Colts aka with an elite quarterback? He'd probably be the talk of the NFL world and an easy frontrunner for the offensive rookie of the year award.

With Duane Brown hopefully back to play against the Seahawks on Sunday, I can see Schaub having a little more time to throw even against a good Seahawks defense. It wouldn't shock me if DeAndre Hopkins has a good game against Seattle, especially if Andre Johnson is being covered by Richard Sherman.

A lot of people are predicting the Seahawks to win this game. The Texans are a 3-point home underdog. The Texans haven't played a good game this season so I don't mind being overlooked. Like I mentioned before, they trailed all three games in the fourth quarter, they trailed all three games at halftime and they are lucky to be 2-1 and not 0-3 right now.

The Texans have a lot to prove against the Seahawks on Sunday. Hopefully Arian Foster can come alive and have a good game.

Seahawks are going to be without their starting LT, RT, and Center, two of them are Pro Bowlers (Max Unger and Russell Okung). Also, Seattle went 3-5 on the road last season, and barely escaped with a W in Carolina(12-7). We have a fightin' chance.

Hopefully Duane Brown will be back and healthy, and we need to replace Newton with Harris.

Last week's freestyle Friday. I forgot to post it. Vanilla Ice at the end. That's pretty cool.

And today's freestyle Friday. Two more days until the game against the Seahawks. I wish it was Sunday already.

that second girl trying to hit the tennis ball lol

HOUSTON – A week ago after practice, Houston Texans rookie DeAndre Hopkins hit the weight room thinking he'd get in a quiet workout only to be challenged to a test of will by J.J. Watt, the league's reigning Defensive Player of the Year.

Hopkins, who leads all rookies with 243 receiving yards on 18 catches with one touchdown entering Sunday's showdown against the Seattle Seahawks, learned first-hand what makes Watt such a relentless playmaker.

Along the way, the kid with the 10-inch sized hands earned Watt's respect with moxie to match his triple-large, oversized receiver gloves.

"It was just me and him in there lifting, and J.J. just told me, 'You're not going to outwork me,''' Hopkins told USA TODAY Sports Friday. "I said, 'I promise you, I'll outwork you.'

"J.J. said, 'I like that.'''

The 27th overall pick in the April draft did his best to hang in there. But pretty soon, his arms were burning, turning to rubber.

"I was trying to keep up with J.J. and I couldn't,'' Hopkins says. "J.J.'s a real quiet guy, hard worker during the week. But I call him the Incredible Hulk. Come game day, he just becomes a monster.

"Yeah, I left the weight room before he left.''

But not before the former cornerback-turned-receiver, who earned the nickname "Superman'' at D.W. Daniel High in Central, S.C., left a strong impression on Watt with a beyond-his-years demeanor.

"DeAndre has got the right mentality – the biggest thing is he wants to be great, wants to put in the work,'' Watt told USA TODAY Sports. "He's showing all the time that he's a big playmaker. He's got all the tools and is doing all those things on the field.



gotta love this team.
