[QUOTE="luvyasteelblue, post: 100163, member: 674"] Texans fan checking in. Wanted to find out more about Gado. Didn't realize you all were going to a zone blocking scheme this year and that Gado wasn't doing well in it (bad for us :( ). Found it funny that in the other thread a fair lot of you were sad to see Gado go, while our forum was in partial meltdown over Morency going the other way. The skinny on VERnand MORency (at least I think that's where you stress it LOL): We had a version of zone blocking last season, and Morency did a decent job in the one game he started when Domanick Davis and the 2d string were both injured at the end of the season. He didn't figure in the return game as we had Probowl rookie Jerome Mathis handling kickoffs and Buchanon on punts. Our new coaching staff implemented a very similar zone blocking scheme. This preseason he started out early in Kubiak's doghouse because he was dancing too much in the backfield instead of being decisive - you know, one cut and go. According to Kubiak, though, he improved a lot at this over the course of the preseason. His overall stats were nearly identical with our now starter Lundy, but different in style - less consistent but more able to break off the big one once he hit the hole. He ran hard, bigger than his size, and overall seemed to pick up the blitz well, but because of his style and less consistency, it appears the staff came to view him more as a 3d down back. Can't tell much about his pass-catching ability. He wasn't really tried in the return game, I think because they didn't want to risk a RB due to the lack of depth. A lot of Texans fans felt with DD out, he was our best RB due to his explosiveness and blitz pickup. Of course, we don't have a lot to judge him or our other RBs by. TBH, don't know anything about the **** charges, but he hasn't had any trouble while he was here either on or off the field. Anyway, good luck against the 'aints and please stuff Reggie Bush so we don't have to put up with any more crap about passing him up down here :lol: [/QUOTE]
