State of the Texans OL

[CPF4LIFE]

Starting a guy off the street at LG? Lol didnt know it was that bad.

From what I understand, Klein's ability to read an offense is right up there with Kuechly.  Aside from that, I think their o-llinemen are going to have their hands full with our front four.  They've almost all been moved around, and new players are in the mix.  It may look like we did during that unmentionable stretch last season.  Expect a ton of errors and confusion along that o-line.

Agree in this, Luke's first step and ridiculous athleticism set him apart. Klein is a very good MLB and would start on quite a few teams right now.

Their offensive line was in disarray last week due to injuries and poor play, the end result was 5 sacks and numerous QB pressures. Now it seems that the Texans will be without All-Pro LT Duane Brown and their top TE. This is causing the Texans to shuffle almost the entire line. RT Derek Newton who was used and abused last Sunday will now be the starting LT. They picked up Oday Aboushi off the streets Wednesday and it appears he will start at LG. Also appears that they will be giving journeyman Jeff Adams his first career start at RT. Given the fact that Mallet is one of the slowest QB's in the NFL, this could be the matchup that makes or breaks the Panthers.

I'll update the OP if any changes are made.

 

Edit: Guard Xavier Su'a-Filo has been ruled out.

where do you get your injury information? i get mine from rotoworld and they didnt have Su'a-Filo missing the game. Nor did the Texan's official site depth chart have the new guard starting.

not saying youre wrong. i just didnt include this information in my week 2 preview and now im kicking myself. haha. i'll fix it tomorrow. too tired to deal with that ish right now

Oday Aboushi is inactive today. I'm sure I'm probably missing one, but by my count that's only 6 healthy linemen.

I haven't counted.  At least with Velasco, we're up to 8 again, but none of our backups are really tackles.  Gotta hope Remmers & Oher can survive the whole game against Watt.

i believe in AJ, we need our D line to eat today. That, and I'd like to see Shaq make a play.
