There we go. Time to see what he's got.
So, let me get this straight... There are 4 QBs ( Mallet, Hoyer, Cassel & Brady ) starting this week in NFL who were drafted by BB and the 5th one is sitting in bench as Brady's understudy !!
This must be some kind of record.
Cassel's on IR.
Houston's offense might cater to Mallet's skill set more than New England's offense did (while he was here).
We're based on timing and route running, and in his time here, with smaller receivers usually not capable of going up and getting the ball.
In Texas he'll have a strong run game, throw off of play-action, and bigger, taller, downfield receivers in Johnson and Hopkins to go and high point the ball. People have always said that was his type of strength, correct?
I've still don't recall seeing him throw the deep ball with much touch in NE, but the vertical game has usually been cited as his strength and he should be setup for more success there than he was here in that aspect.
Ironically, during the season he was traded our offense has much more of a vertical look both on the outside and up the seams with probably an even taller set of skill players than Houston has.

Fitzpatrick is a decent backup at best. I have no idea why they've continued to start him
