I don't know how the Houston Texan's owner is sleeping at night.

This guy is a complete dunce.

I'd take Ryan Leaf over this guy.

lol not sure its quite that bad, he's going up against arguably the best def in the league

[Mr KLC]

Does fine against average to poor teams. Lousy against playoff teams. Playing in the AFC South, he'll get them to the playoffs. One and done.

They had their shot two years ago.

****WARNING-OLD THREAD*****

The plight of one furloughed federal government worker's family recently got the attention of former NFL quarterback Ryan Leaf.

Taylor Futch, a Gatlinburg, Tennessee, mother of two, first made news with a pre-Christmas tweet about the hardships of the partial government shutdown. The tweet went viral, liked some 58,000 times.

“My husband is a Park Ranger in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, and he had to sign his furlough papers,” it read. “We have a 4 yr (sic) old and a 4 month old, and we don't know when his next check will come. Mortgage is due, Christmas 2 days away. #ShutdownStories.”

n response, she received hundreds of tweets, a lot of thoughts and prayers, a couple packs of diapers in the mail and a few offers of money.

This included a check covering their January mortgage from Leaf, who saw her original tweet and reached out to her.

“You don’t know me, but my grandfather was a game warden in Montana and we spent our vacations going to our 2 (sic) national parks,” Leaf tweeted. “Anna, and my son McGyver & I would love to help with your mortgage if you will allow. #MerryXmas.”

Futch graciously accepted. Leaf, the No. 2 overall pick of the 1998 NFL draft who played only 25 career games in three seasons, wouldn’t take no for an answer..
