I don't know too much about Clark, other than the fact he has some solid experience. I'd expect the Amini at OT movement to slow down. We now have two RT's on the roster with experience at that position. If we do use Amini at RT for week3, i'd be concerned that he has something on coach or the front office.

I read some stuff on the Texans message boards and there were describing him as a "turnstile" at RT, yikes.

This is the same Chris Clark that played LT for the Broncos in the super bowl (2013).

 

One more to add: It has not been officially announced if we intend on Williams coming back after 8 weeks or not.

Can't guarantee he replaces Amini. 

Since they had to IR Williams, he could just be depth. Plus they already had Robinson, assuming he's healthy (still don't get why you'd sign a guy who wasn't when your line already has injury issues).

I believe they will move Amini back to the swing role, as originally projected. We don't have a backup RG at the moment. 

Lastly, the team's official depth chart was just updated and Robinson is our starting RT. Which is interesting.

Forget replacing Amini. We are one guy down no matter what!  We all hope to replace Amini but in the end we lost a man....and need to add another to replace him. A few hours ago everyone was crying we signed a practice squad WR instead of OL. Now we have "something" to address that serious situation, even if its just backup or just reaching because we are desperate

Definitely hope so.

The other operative question: Is Amini still playing special teams?

(not something you'd normally think about that much but after last week...)

LT in the SB.... Kony Ealy looked like an all pro that game.... Not a good look

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
