Slaton Will Start
2009-11-22 FFTodayRunning back Steve Slaton will be back in the starting lineup Monday night when the Texans host the Tenn Titans. Slaton found out today he would start after having a good week of practices. Ryan Moats started the 20-17 loss to Indianapolis on Nov. 8 because Slaton had lost five fumbles. "I had an assumption that I would start, but nothing was concrete until now," Slaton said after being told by coach Gary Kubiak that he would be starting. "I'm happy about it. It's an opportunity I have to take full advantageof." (Houston Chronicle)

Kubiak Sticking With RB Rotation For Now
2009-11-10 FFTodayAfter nine games, the Texans have struggled to run the football consistently well. They're averaging 3.3 yards per rush and 90.8 yards per game. The lone 100-plus yard performance by an individual came when Ryan Moats carried 23 times for 126 yards in the road win at Buffalo. Moats, Steve Slaton and Chris Brown have carried the football with varying frequencies throughout the season, and head coach Gary Kubiak said after Tuesday's practice that the team still needs those three ball carriers. I know y'all are tired of hearing it, but I'll need them all and I'll watch them practice," Kubiak said. "I want to see how Steve responds and comes back from this break. I want to see how Ryan responds and Chris being as fresh as he can be. So it'll be a day-to-day deal for me." Brown didn't carry the football in Sunday's loss at Indianapolis. He has averaged 3.3 yards per carry in 42 attempts this season. Of the three backs, he has the fewest total rushes, but Kubiak still has confidence in Brown. "To me, it's hard for three guys to get involved when you're running the ball as much as we've been running the ball, so that's been difficult," Kubiak said. "We'll get everything Chris has here over the course of these last seven weeks, and obviously he'll be as fresh as he's been coming out of training camp, so we'll see." (houstontexans.com)

Moats Gets The Start, Slaton Will Play
2009-11-07 FFTodayRyan Moats will replace Steve Slaton as the starting running back for the Texans Sunday when they play Indianapolis at Lucas Oil Stadium. Coach Gary Kubiak said Friday he would make the decision Sunday, and he's moved Moats into the starting lineup for the first time. Moats came off the bench at Buffalo and carried 23 times for 126 yards and three touchdowns. The three rushing touchdowns set a team record. Slaton has been benched because he's lost five fumbles in the first eight games. He's fumbled eight times overall. Kubiak said Slaton and Chris Brown will play. More than likely, Slaton will play in passing situations, and Brown will play in short-yardage situations. If the Colts shut down Moats, Slaton is more likely to get the ball in running situations.

Moats starting over Slaton
2009-11-07 FanballThe News Texans coach Gary Kubiak has annouced that Ryan Moats will start at running back against the Colts for the Texans on Sunday, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. He will share carries with Steve Slaton. Our View We shall see about the "share" part. Moats shredded the Bills to the tune of 126 yards and three touchdowns last week, while Slaton has yet to go for more than 67 yards in a game this season. With tomorrow being perhaps the most important game in Texans history, it would not be surprising at all to see Kubiak go exclusively with Moats if he looks anything like he did last week.

Texans to employ RBBC?
2009-11-04 FanballThe News NFL reporter Adam Caplan tweeted that a running back-by-committee should be expected in Houston between Steve Slaton and Ryan Moats. Our View Slaton was benched as the starter last week against Buffalo after another fumble, and Moats broke loose for 126 rushing yards and three touchdowns in his place. Moats is worth targeting in fantasy leagues, and will have a decent matchup against the Colts this weekend, who are ranked 17th in run defense.
