Maybe because he has 0 mobility and the Texans' line was getting manhandled?

With that Oline, decisions are made differently. I agree that Savage didn't overachieve, but he would've if he wasn't running for his life. Funny how the NFL is copying CFB to overcome difficienties along the Oline.
Along comes Deshaun. God help him behind that line.

With that OL I'm not sure even Brady could move the ball. PLus much of the receiving corp seems prone to drop the ball

Maybe because after 4 years in the league
Sep 14, 2017, 12:07 PM

and over 100 career attempts Savage has 0 TD's 1 INT and 3 fumbles. Dude never had a legit claim to be the starter.

If he had then he would get it...Savage was on his back more times than a cheap hooker.

That's why you are an agent and not a coach.

The dude is oversimplifying the game. Deshaun has intangibles and he's far less likely to take big losses when protection breaks down.

Seems to me the coach already gave the answer. He'll go with QB that gives the Texans the best chance to win. That's DW4. Agents need to stay mum on this kind of issue. Creates many negatives and no positives.

Maybe he can contact Cole Stoud's agent and figure it out.***

He's doing what an agent should do
Sep 14, 2017, 3:20 PM

And he has valid points based on the circumstances.
I'm all for DW being out there, but man that was a fast hook.

I read that Tom Savage has never thrown a TD as the starter for an NFL team .
Deshaun has one TD after 1 half of an NFL game .
That is enough to justify it in y mind ...moving on.
