It was all good just a week ago, now Mallett is starting for Hoyer

It was all just a week ago, inserts Jay-Z and Too Short’s classic verses in to this post, watch the video very dope classic song.

Brian Hoyer was the man for the Texans Week 1, but after a so-so performance Bill O’Brien has turned the keys over to Ryan Mallett. It seems like everywhere Hoyer goes he’s one shaky performance from getting benched. Against the Chiefs he threw for 236 yards (on 18 of 34) and a touchdown, but he had an interception and a fumble and his team was getting blasted so the infusion of Mallett last week seemed to spark the Texans offense as he led them to two touchdown drives.

Mallett threw for 98 yards and a touchdown on 8 of 13 passes in mop up duty. During training camp Mallett and Hoyer were battling for the starting position and weeks after being named the backup, now he’s the starter. Mallett has always been known for his talent, but the big question was his preparation off the field.

Is this good that O’Brien pulled Hoyer this fast? If Mallett struggles will he have a quick hook also? Is anybody safe behind center in Houston? Will they be drafted a quarterback in the first round in the 2016 NFL draft? These are questions that will be answered as the game is being played.

Remember for Brian Hoyer it was all good just a week ago “and that’s when the relationship strayed.”
