I'm just personally "eh" about the move, despite how optimistic some of you are.  He's a shadow of what he was a few years ago.  $12M a year might be too much for what he's produced.  He a had a bounce-back year, but that's much easier to do as a pass-rusher when you're always playing with a lead. If the Colts can jump out to early leads, he'll be great...if they can't, he'll be so-so.

I assume you didn't watch him very much

Ehh, Houston is actually better in close games.  It’s Ford who would have been less affective by playing in the closer games.    

Stat wise it may make him so-so, but Houston does a ton of things well that don’t show in the stats

Flowers

Flowers went to play for his old coach for 17 mill, to play for Indy say would have took 18mill. there is a big diff between 5 and 90 and 2 and 24.  I rather have Houston and the cap flexibility.

I agree but both would have been tremendous
