If the move going to rejuvenate him or is he cooked?

I'm firmly in the cooked camp and O'Brien hasn't shown much in the run game so I will say....

65 yard rushing, 27 yards receiving- 1 rushing TD

But ugly at like 3.6 YPC.

I expect him to look pretty decent and have a nice game.

DJ looks like he has slimmed down and dropped some muscle this year. He looks quicker. I wish he had done that while he was a Cardinals. I really think his bodybuilding ruined his functionality on the football field during his last couple of years.

I expect Texans fans will be amazed how much he actually sucks at running the ball.

I will say this. I watched some camp tape of DJ and he looks better. He looks lighter and faster. That slow, lead footed style he adopted here seemed to be gone.

I am at about 95 yards combined.

Can you believe the prop bet for him is just 21.5 yards receiving? I think he gets to at least 30

Easily. Chiefs linebackers aren't good. DJ should feast.

BritCard is right, I think the trade and change was needed. He now looks slim and more like the 1k/1k version of DJ and not the last two years DJ, he will probably have a great game. I wish him the best, but as everyone knows, sometimes you need to go, DJ had to.

He'll have 18 rushes for 70 yards rushing, 8 receptions for 65 yards receiving and 1 TD.

Thats insane. He can easily get that on 1 catch out on the flats or a screen.

I think he is going to be really good for Houston this year. I always really liked him and I wish him well. I think his time here was done, but he should be able to put together 2 more years of quality football somewhere.

I predict 110 yards rushing and 52 yards receiving. 1 TD.

I think he will be the best things the Texans have going tonight since they are going to get beat by 21+

I'm with the posters expecting a decent but not grand performance. I like him for something like 150 total yards, 5-6 receptions, and a TD or two. It'll be a little game flow dependent. My feeling is that the passing games of each team will come out a little rusty.
