    How'd you all think Haden did?

    Not so good IMO, but truly, how many WRs like Hopkins are there in the league?

    I'm sure he's going to work super hard in practice this week, and will definitely want to be on the field against his old team next week!


    We got our "6-PACK" - time to work on a CASE!

    I thought he did great! Especially considering they had him shadow Hopkins on his first game back! I know you can't, but other than those two great plays by Hopkins, he was held in check.

    In a month, I'm imagining sticking him on Cooks, let Burns take Gronk (with help of course), let Hilton/Gay handle Amendola and Jerry Hogan, and let the rest of the chips fall where they may!

      After several weeks off, he came back and played hard and aggressive against one of the best WR's in the game. The TD he gave up was just a sick play that no one could have defended any better. I thought it was a terrific performance.

        Lol the Texans had 51 total yards passing today. I think he did real well considering he hasn’t played in over a month. Combine that with he had to cover one of the best WRs in football and I think we have to be pleased with his performance.

        Just keep getting better.

            Haden played very well... considering the circumstances.

                Haden did an excellent job out there, Hopkins had a couple catches but they where contested.

                  Did great. Hopkins is probably the best WR in the NFL not named Antonio Brown and he is probably way more physically gifted than AB.

                    Nothing came easy for Hopkins today. He's definitely going to be a difference maker vs the Pats allowing more man 2 man options and double teaming of Gronk

                      I thought it was Haden's best game of the year, because he was targeted a lot and he had to work to limit a talented receiver. He gave up a few contested passes which will sometimes happen, even with good coverage, because either the QB sticks it into the perfect place or the receiver makes a great play.

                      He also showed no signs of a nagging pain so that make it encouraging for the playoffs.

                        Covering someone like Hopkins and making him essentially a nonfactor to me says he played a good game. Now, I guess you need to factor in the nobodies throwing the ball, but he stuck to Hopkins like glue, which bodes well for the playoffs.

                          I agree with Starlifter. Haden played really well, and the only way that Hopkins scores that TD is with an unreal play...which he provided...
                          Actually, my post was NOT about you...but, if the shoe fits, feel free to lace that &!+€# up and wear it.
