Wade Phillips will tell you Brian Cushing is better than people think. He'll tell you he made all the Texans' third-down calls last season and that whether you realized it or not, he was basically the leader of the defense.

I’ll Pass On: Andre Johnson
You’re doing me dirty Juan…
2011 Recap: To be fair Andre Johnson was having a pretty nice season until a nasty hamstring injury in week four pretty much ended his fantasy season. He did come back to TJ Yates and a decent playoff run of 201 yards and a TD against the Bengals and Ravens. Not necessarily push overs.
What’s Changed: The Texans had to do what they had...

Fantasy Football: 2012 Running Back Tiers
Tier 1: The Elite
