    Ouch, but a good move if we trade or release him imo. He has been declining and isn't worth his current contract. He deserves to be given the chance to go to a team that's going to the playoffs next season vs rebuilding in Houston.

    Can't really blame him. He's put up with so much.

    Fairly or unfairly, Bill O'Brien is going to be viewed as the man who ran AJ out of Houston.

    Meh, it doesn't really matter what he wants. He's in essentially a contract year, he'd better hope he plays well and doesn't get injured or he'll be getting a tiny contract next year once the Texans cut him.

    I think it has absolutely nothing to do with obrien...and everything to do with how McNair and Smith have run this franchise.

    Of course it has nothing to do with BOB. However, turn on 610 and you'll probably hear mouth breathing tards spewing nonsense about BOB being too much of a hard ass and hurting AJ's feelings or something.
