He was limited in Practice due to a sore knee. Pushed it too hard and pop????

An MRI on the knee confirmed the full extent of the injury!

So it's true.
 
Devastating news for my second favorite QB in the game. Texans are truly snake bit this year.
 
Man, there goes his Rookie of the Year. I always want to play their best against our best. Shame, but increases our chances significantly.

Tough business, but our chances of winning just went up

This is a lock now, though I had the Rams winning before this, at this point it'll probably be lopsided.


Especially when a player comes out of nowhere like he did. It's an awful way for a truly excellent story line to end.

I just did some number crunching.........a 16 game season modeled after the 6 games he has started would look like this:

4178 yards passing
674 yards rushing
48 passing TD's (21 INT's)
5 rushing TD's
8.8 YPA

It's not likely that he would be able to keep that pace, but imagine if he did. Not only would he be ROTY he would probably garner the MVP trophy too. Not to mention setting a bar so high it's unlikely that the TD's and YPA would ever be matched by a rookie QB forever. It would be like Bob Beamon's Olympic long jump record. Unbreakable.

He's gotta stop running though, he won't last if he keeps it up.
 
That is horrible he was tearing it up.
He will come back strong and seems like a good kid...I blame bill o' brian for some reason lol

Houston fans screamed to the sports gods...

"Anything for a world series title!!! Please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

The sports gods listened and took their payment the very next day. It was a bittersweet tale for Houston fans.
 
Maybe not the time to start the narrative and maybe insensitive but this is why i prefer a guy like goff over these types of qb's. They can only last so long with their style of play. Wentz is another one who worries me, only Wilson seems to be the exception.
 
Bummer

Shame for the kid... worse shame for me... he was my FF QC :cry:

I'm f'ed now
 
Wow. What a shame. He was off to a great start.

He can come back fine. Gurley and others prove that. But that’s a huge setback for him and the Texans.
