Paul McCartney says he holds no grudge against his estranged second
wife for all of her attacks on his character.
If Paul can do it, so can Texans quarterback David Carr .
He's ready to forgive and forget all the Houston fans who wanted to
give him a one way ticket to anywhere but here .

Unlike singer Madonna who blamed the media for her botched adoption.
Carr took full responsibility for his three turnovers, and benching
in Tennessee .

He came into the big apple with a 300 pound gorilla on his back,
and almost left with a stunning upset over the Giants .

No one could really blame Carr if he was looking over his shoulder in
Gotham , or if Gary Kubiak had a quick hook .
Thankfully , neither one was necessary.

Carr turned in a solid performance vs the G-men , completing 21 of 30
passes for 176 yards . But it was the way that he managed the game that
was really impressive.

He excuted Kubiak's game plan with the skill of a surgeon, keeping the Giants
off balance.
At one point taking the Texans on an 18 play , 80 yard drive.
David capped off the drive by diving into the endzone head first
for the touchdown.

The veteran showed a toughness the new coaching staff had been
were waiting to see . He was a real leader on the field , and his teammates
were trilled to see him have some sucess.

Now , the key for Carr is, can he repeat the performance . If he does, even
the most vocal Carr haters might have to show him a little love.
We'll all find out when the Texans travel to Jacksonville next week.
