The march towards 0-16 continues

No Random Observations today folks. Some stuff came up and I can't really watch the games and take notes and I doubt that I'll be able to with the Sunday night game. Either way, it's been a shitty day so far and I'm really not fond of the Houston Texans right now.

There was a little hope for a while there that Miami could squeeze out the W, but when Cameron decided to punt it there at the end, you just knew it. Why he didn't want to try a 56-yard field goal is beyond me. I know that Feeley might have missed it and that Houston would get great field position but the damn team is 0-4. How much would it have hurt to at least give it a try? Maybe we'd have a win now or something...

I had a feeling that Kris Brown would have a big game as I picked him up a few days ago for the ol' fantasy team, but that the dude would tie an NFL record with 3 50+ kicks including a 57 yarder to win it....well, fuck that. Fuck that in the ear.

And I guess that this is the end of the Trent Green era. It was short, it sucked and it was painful to watch but I have tremendous respect for the man right now. A 37-year old coming off of a huge concussion last year, trying to put a block downfield on a 0-4 team that is going nowhere. I don't know if he's just crazy or that he has balls the size of North Dakota but damn, we all should have that heart.

Either way Trent, thanks for the effort in these 5 games but just hang them up. Do it for yourself and for your family. I wanted the John Beck era to get underway, but not like this. That said, I expect John to get in there somewhere around week 12 or so and if by then we're 0-11, I would not be surprised at all.

A cross-dressing mermaid could fly into Dolphins stadium while signing the national anthem of Paraguay and I still wouldn't be surprised.

Update: Green's injury appeared worse than it is. He'll be joining the team again and as of right now will probably be out 3 to 4 weeks. I still say that it's too risky and that he should call it quits.
