Anybody got any info on projected playing time for Gado, or probably nothing worth worrying about until wk3?

Start him this week at your own risk. The Giants ran all over Indy last week, but I somehow don't think the Texans will be able to duplicate that feat. Still, I feel Houston has to give Lundy at least one more shot as the main ballcarrier.

I'm wondering what Morrency will do in Green Bay when the inevitable Ahman Green injury pops up.

"Texans head coach Gary Kubiak thinks Gado can get on the field Sunday against Indianapolis, the Texans' official site reports. It sounds like Gado will be doing more in the blocking and pass protection phase of the game than rushing the ball. "I think so. You’re on zone, wide and tight, it’s not too big of a deal back there," said Kubiak responding to a question about Gado playing on Sunday. "Protection is pretty much the same thing he’s used verbiage-wise in Green Bay so I don’t see any reason why he couldn't go in there and function." Wali Lundy will start for Houston with Ron Dayne also getting carries, but before long Gado will be in the mix. Keep an eye on this situation as it could change weekly."

pretty much what I thought/expected for his first week there. Thanks Cliff and MC.
