The obvious big elephant in the room regarding Houston is the argument of production vs. contract.
You can say that Houston's game is much more than just sacking the QB. I get that. He's a solid run defender.
But the guy got paid because he sacked the QB 22 times. 9.5 sacks doesn't get Houston that $100M contract. For that money you should be a 15+ sack guy. So you can't expect people not to be discouraged and pissed off when Houston is costing the Chiefs a shit ton in cap space, and they can't move him, we just have to sit here and watch the slow death of a once dominating pass rusher.
Is Houston playing worthy of his contract at the moment? Well of course not. If he has a 2014-ish year will I change my mind? Absolutely...I just doubt that happens. For the Chiefs sake I hope it does, because that's the only way the D is going to be respectful.
