Texans RB Arian Foster Injures Groin May Require Surgery

I'd be surprised too. I personally don't know too much about Polk or Hilliard, but apparently Pierre Thomas is coming to Houston tomorrow for a visit. If he's in good shape I don't think he leaves. I know he was pretty good playing with the Saints for quite a few years.

Yeah, if the Texans get Pierre Thomas, you guys will be okay. Solid back with good hands, good vision, & who can get the gritty, dirty yards in the trenches if necessary. Hang in there Quiz. It's a long season which hasn't even started yet. 

 

Aside from my jokes about groin surgery, I do feel horrible for Foster who I admire a lot on a personal level. Get better soon man because I love watching you run when you're healthy.

Hillard was part of the LSU RB rotation related to Dalton Hillard. I'm not sure how long you followed the game Dalton was pretty good for the Saints. Kenny's a big short yardage back good hands slow 40. I'm interested to see Polk. He never got a shot in Philly. Had a good game a kick off for a TD. Here's what they said when he was coming out

The two most significant things that stand out are his running style and speed. Trying to prepare for Polk is tough. Linebackers are big enough but too slow, and defensive backs are fast enough but too small. The team that selects Polk will benefit immensely in all phases of offense

Polk could be the sleeper. I will be watching for fantasy purposes. Blue averaged 3.1 a carry last yr struggled in pass protection not much interst from me.

Polk in 3 yrs of limited action 4.7 was starting to get red zone work in Philly. He was stuck in crowded backfield. Could be something for fantasy I will be watching.

Bad break for the Texans. Big break for the Colts (while you never want to see someone hurt) sounds like he will miss the Colts game in Houston. That's a big road test I was worried about. While still going to be a hard game not having Foster tilt things in the Colts favor IMO.

Just unfortunate for Foster, A good dude. Hopefully he bounces back from this quickly

You never like to see this happen to anyone. Sucks for Houston fans. If there was ANY doubt beforehand about the Colts walking away with this division, I think this pretty much sealed it. The Texans just aren't the same without Foster on the field.

My condolences to all Houston fans, I think you just waved goodbye to a wild card spot.

Foster is as unhealthy as he is good, you'll seldom see in go 16 games. Tough break for my second favorite AFC team.

Time to call Ray Rice

From the sound of it, they are not getting him. They wanted tob pay him veteran minimum and he wanted more. Couldn't agree on a contract.

I heard a Houston guy on Dan Patrick this morning say no way.  Apparently the Texans owner has a zero tolerance policy on players hitting women and means it.
