Cushing is not even close to being ray Lewis. And I'm not saying that because he's a Texan either. Shawn lee is better than Cushing and I don't think he can be compared to ray lewis.

Yeah I've already looked at the stats, Lee was also playing with one hand in several games. Cushing is a beast no doubt, I just think lee has more skill. And neither are ray Lewis!

Are you talking about Ray Lewis THIS year or all years combined? Like said earlier, Lewis hasn't don't **** this year and still got voted in because of name recognition.

If you are generalizing Ray Lewis's total career including his attempted murder, then yes he is absolute beast. Actually, I expect you to say Ray is better, since you are a Cowboys fan y'all tend to hang onto past glories and still treat them as if they are still relevant.

He's damn sure better than him this year, and IMO closing in on what Lewis used to be. Cushing still has a lot of years ahead of him. Any D woukd be lucky to have him. He is the best in the league right now without a doubt. If the Texans didn't have KJ, and had an offense that could eat up some clock so the D could stay fresh I think the Texans would have the #1 D.

I loved the interview with Antonio Smith's interview talking about how pissed Cushing is after no pro bowl selection.

He is not the best linebacker in the league...Patrick Willis is better than Cushing.

Not bad for an extremely conservative gameplan.

Not one GM in the league would take Lee over Cushing, like berman and the crew would say....C'MON MAN!!

Bengals are a dangerous team, still probably about the best matchup you can hope for if you're a texans fan. I have tickets just not sure if I'm going yet.

Maybe Kubiak will make up for all the years of conservative game planning, sandbagging, and playing down to the competition and let the bulls loose next weekend...............

I would have liked to see them play the Titans myself.......the Bengals can be a dangerous team IMO

Thats what I'm hoping for. I was glad to see casey back in the mix, at least he can make something happen on those short check downs. Andre will help keep the safety out of the box. I haven't heard on briesel, but I hope he's back. Caldwell is getting tore up. I'd rather go down with yates being aggressive vs. the conservative bs we've been getting.
