Houston Texans Morning Huddle--Brown Wins Award

Here are your daily Houston Texans stories for Thursday:

Duane Brown wins Ed Block Award from Houstontexans.com

Hard to go wrong with this selection. Brown had been an anchor for this team for years and not gotten hurt so to see him recognized like this shows what he has meant to this franchise.

O’Brien has not given up on Osweiler by Garret Heinrich, CBS Houston

Sounds like a lot of coach-speak to me. What else is O’Brien supposed to say, “yeah we spent $72 million dollars on a guy who can’t play”? They can’t say that. Of course, you want to give guys second chances, but at the same time you need results.

Peyton Manning threw 28 interceptions his rookie season. This is Osweiler’s first year starting full time, so people who didn’t expect any growing pains had unrealistic expectations. I’m not saying that Osweiler is going to get on Peyton’s level anytime soon. But sometimes people need to remember Rome was not built in a day.

Depending on how well Savage plays, I think Osweiler will have a chance to win his job back in the offseason. If Savage looks mediocre over the last two games, I would not be surprised if another guy was brought in to provide more competition.
