    Of course... but I was just saying that Myers would've been the best signing because it would've helped us and hurt the Texans.

    No, signing Amano to a big contract last year screwed us out of our center. You just paid one center $5M a year and now you are going to bring another guy in for more? That's why we didn't try harder to get Myers though we should have.

    The hope is that Amano would be better this year. we'll never know of course.

    I agree, it's not tricking anyone so stop. All it does do is put our OLB's a step out of place, might even be why TE's kill us every drive. Very few OLB's are going to match todays TE's step for step, help them by keeping them back some.

    I agree.

    Getting Myers would have meant not signing Hutch and Amano would be back at that left guard spot. I still prefer that they did that given the age of hutch and how much Amano struggled at center last year.

    And of course because we take a good player from the Texans. Amano was not nearly as bad at left guard as he was at center.

    He is better, he's on IR so we don't have to see him.

    Well we paid him a $7M SB last year and his salary for this year is $3.7M. We were not going to release him or bench him.

    Let's remember that CJ ran for 2000 yards with Amano starting at left guard for us with Scott at the other guard and these same 2 tackles.

    Every time I hear Amano, I instantly think of him tackling CJ for some nice losses... There is one play in particular that is engraved in my memory.
