    Harvey: Saints have reputation, but the Texans actually top dubious list

    Playing fast and hitting hard.

    Nice! Last weeks game was the most physical preseason game I have ever seen. We knocked out two of SF running backs, LeMichael James and Brandon Jacobs. Sonofbum is for real!

    Zone blocking and Brian Cushing are enough to lead the league in injuries caused I'd imagine.

    also their QB was getting smacked around a bunch. , and when Watt comes back. O man!
    the announcers for 49'ers started saying "the Texans are getting nasty on Alex Smith" ... Yea I think we are going to shed that soft label we once had for some reason

    He HAD a reputation for being soft. Last season, they started calling us dirty.

    This harvey fella should have posted the casualties for the article. I'm trying to go over last season's games in my mind but I can't remember which opposing players suffered injuries. Big Ben, CJ the human booblehead had to check out. That's all i can remember.

    I wouldn't be surprised if we concussed at least 2 other QB's (maybe Henne & Gabbert) - I know Gabbert had to have his ribs taped after Cushing put the bonesaw on him, and O yea Dobbins KO'd big-time the back up RB (or FB?) for the Titans- just a few coming to mind
