  1. How do contracts work; for example a receiver gets bonus money for "X" number of catches per season or game, now the QB goes out for the season and the back up can't hit anyone, how does the money change? Also look at the dollar impact on the whole team-attendance will be down, player playoff money is gone, playoff TV revenue is gone, pregame parking lot beer and BBQ sales are down, miscellaneous clothing and souvenir sales are down.................a lot of bucks fade away just because of one player!

  2. You are all missing one thing; all teams today are not what they will be at week 16. I think with the Wade Phillips school of defense on graduation day (week 16) the Texans might be much better than their already good defense. The same holds true with Tennessee.

  3. Champion teams do certain things and most of all those "things" are what the Texans now are doing, sustained drives to score, overcoming crippling penalties succeeding at fourth and one, an aggressive, powerful defense, excellent running game with good back ups, a super receiver, a solid QB. This last game against the Steelers showed something is broiling in "H" town. Oh, by the way the fat brothers and their Jets and Cowboys are making drowning noises. The "dream team"....1-3 in the city of brotherly love

  4. OK, let's address the age old question.............who is at fault, the coach or the players, winning or losing? This to me is a great example of my answer, the players. Yes, it is a combination of both but putting the ball over the goal line cannot ever be done from the sidelines. I say Caldwell stays, the GM needs to seek out life forms in distant galaxies far, far away.

  5. STUPID...to jump on any college QB...remember Art Schictler (sp) or the clown the Chargers drafted and is now considered the greatest flop in NFL history? Would it not be a tragedy if Manning's fate was sealed so he is never allowed to play again and the Colts snag Luck and he turns out to be a flop?!. How would the organization live that down? What are the odds of a Cam Newton type QB happening again in the next 20 years?

  6. He put all his chips in draft choices, most of them were and are mediocre. He has not talent for wheeling/dealing in trades. Small, fast defense line and LB's, mediocre secondary and weak front line protection. As long as he had #18 he believed he would be delivered to the promise land. Well, that's like British Petroleum putting all their faith in corks to stop their leaks in the Gulf of Mexico.....................it does not work!

  7. It would be nice to get him in to the fight but resistance from many of the players would be huge, receivers for example would not like risking all to train a new kid. Blockers also may not like it. EVERYONE agrees Indy is paying the heavy price for building an organization around one player.
