Injuries on Defense Continue to Hamper Houston Texans-J. Oehser
It is foolish to say an NFL team is in crisis during the second week of the preseason. But if the Houston Texans aren't in crisis, its at least safe to say things aren't exactly ideal around their Methodist Training Center.

Who's better? Asomugha won't pit his skills against Jets' Revis-J. Corbett

Postcard from camp: Raiders-J. Trotter
Setting the Scene
The Raiders spend summer in Napa, Calif., on fields just behind the Marriott hotel. Normally the climate is relatively mild -- mid-70s or so -- but on Tuesday the temperature climbed to 103. Quarterback Jason Campbell, who spent the previous four seasons with Washington, joked that complaining teammates were spoiled. The good news for the players was that they practiced in shells (helmets, shoulder pads and shorts) instead of full gear. The bad news: The heat was expected to return Wednesday. In fact, a heat warning was issued through Wednesday night. Some players took the long view and said the weather was a blessing, because Oakland opens the season in Nashville, Tenn., where the average temperature is 83 in September. "We're going to need to be in this kind of environment a little bit," says coach Tom Cable. "This was good for it. I really am excited how we handled it today as a football team."

AFC South: Most indispensable players-P. Kuharsky
A team-by-team look at the most indispensable players (non-quarterbacks) in the division.
Take that parenthetical out of the above statement, and the division owns the league’s most indispensable player. No team could afford to lose its top dog less than the Colts with Peyton Manning.

Chargers, Colts, Redskins situations all solvable-J. La Canfora
Watching the preseason unfold, there have been more than a few occasions which have inspired me to shake my head and think back to that tired Arsenio Hall segment from years ago: Things that make you go hmmm. A few things I can't quite figure out:

Undrafted rookies often beat the odds for Jaguars-T. Ganguli
On a large scale, Jaguars linebacker Russell Allen believes the reason he made an NFL team, and found himself in a position of prominence, is because of the good he could do with it. Because with this platform, he can brighten the days of children at daniel house, a Jacksonville center for orphans and troubled youth, or speak at a local juvenile detention center.

Tennessee Titans' Vince Young remains crisp-J. Wyatt
1. VINCE YOUNG LOOKED SHARP
The quarterback sizzled early, going 4-of-4 in individual drills and 6-of-6 in the first round of 7-on-7. He spread the ball, but Kenny Britt was his favorite target.

With his sprained ankle wrapped, Donovan McNabb wore a ballcap turned backward at practice Wednesday afternoon as he watched someone else command the offense he was brought here to guide.
