According to this story, "A calmer Mario Williams was a lot more disruptive in his second pro game than the amped-up one was in his first... Williams, who made a negligible impact last week, showed signs of justifying Houston’s decision to take him at No. 1 over Reggie Bush in a 27-20 Texans win over St. Louis on Saturday night. He drew the Rams into a pair of penalties, batted down a pass to force a punt and tackled running back Tony Fisher for a 3-yard loss."

So does this go a ways to justifying Houston's selection of Williams over Bush with the 1st pick, as the article suggests? Or will it take a lot more than a tackle for a loss and a pass deflection to get fans to stop thinking about the USC phenom?

The guy isn't Sports Center material, but he is what all teams need...its like Randy White and Tony Dorsett (both 2nd pick overall by Dallas)...one made the highlight reel, the other was a big reason the Cowboys were dominant in the 70's...

I'm sorry but this kid will have to be among the league's best to give Houston any relief from not taking Reggie Bush number one overall in the draft. We'll see how their careers unfold but it took a lot of guts to make the choice they made.
