Jones-Moore and Hunt banged up. That's unfortunate, I was hoping one of them would shine before the start if the season

Quote:Damion Jones-Moore won’t return for a week or so, and Campbell said Kareem Hunt was expected back Wednesday for an evening practice.

Looks like both will be back in fall practices before the opener.

Hopefully they are just minor dings and both will get back to 100% sometime during the season. Between Flu, McDowell, and Pringle we probably have it covered though. Pringle ran pretty well the Spring Game.

RE: Rockets Look for Fix in Red Zone
My biggest concern this year is not to repeat last year in the red zone. We kicked way to many field goals from 1st and 10 inside our own 20. Kept us close in many games we dominated all stats except for scoring touchdowns. Scoring touchdowns in the red zone wins games. We get there and stall we will have an up hill battle to win the big games

I don't recall, was the problem all year or only after Owens got dinged? I don't know if the problem last year was personnel based or play calling?

If I recall correctly, it seemed like our play book shrunk considerably and we became ultra conservative...tried pounding it inside time after time, along with QB sneaks that didn't get the tough yards.
