National Football League teams on upset alert in Week 11
With Brian Hoyer still recovering from a concussion, the Texans claimed quarterback Brandon Weeden as insurance for Sunday. Yates. That seemed to provide Hoyer a few security, but he suffered a concussion last week against the Bengals and Yates managed the team to an upset win over the undefeated Bengals. Quinn’s quote: “I think the thing that jumps out is the guy’s football smarts”.
His move to Houston, as per CBS Sports, will be “a good one” for Weeden since he “gets to go from a last-place team in Dallas to a team that’s tied for first place in Houston”.
“It’s more painful now than it was before the surgery”, said Fitzpatrick, who will continue to use a protective glove like he did after suffering the injury November 1 against the Oakland Raiders. “Every time the ball is in the air, you can tell he feels he wants to go attack it”. The four touchdowns was a career high for Cousins as well and his performance as of late has his coach talking about wanting to keep him around past his contract expiring this offseason. Despite his rust after not playing for so long, Yates was helped by the rapport he has with teammates from his previous stint in Houston.
“The locker room has a lot of respect for him”, O’Brien said.
Le’Veon Bell corrected a fan who said he was “glad he tore his ACL” by letting the fan know that he indeed did not tear his ACL. “In order to be better in those situations, to me it comes down to making the plays when you have the opportunity”.
Houston has not surrendered a touchdown in 10 straight quarters. A win would also make the Wild Card become a reality as a fallback option, as they would be, at worst, one game behind the Bills and Steelers.
Jets WR Quincy Enunwa: Reinstated from the reserve/suspended list November 13, he is expected to serve as the Jets’ No. 3 receiver. With so many issues at quarterback and with Arian Foster going down for the season, Houston needed its defense to step up if they hoped to salvage anything out of their 2015 season.
Unfortunately, Weeden was unable to follow up his great performance versus Philadelphia and struggled in all the three games he started, which all led to losses. Blue had just 22 yards off 12 carries while Grimes managed 33 yards off six carries.
