  1. I still don’t know why so many people think our roster sucks. We took a backup QB and were relevant until the final game. Considering most “experts” had us maybe winning 4 games with AR, I think we did well given the circumstances. Most teams would have collapsed. We didnt. funny thing is, if that pass hadn’t been dropped, many in here would be singing a different tune. but none of that matters now, it’s ARs team. It’s on him now to stay healthy and lead this team. If we can get him some reliable weapons, we stand to surprise a lot of people.
  2. Yeah I get it. But history is not on the Texans side. The super bidders of FA of the last 20 years, 16 of them have missed the playoffs and only the Rams have gotten to the Conference Championships or beyond. They could but it’d be unlikely, meanwhile, teams like the chiefs and Bills were rather patient , building a deep solid set of rosters before finally landing their QB and boom, they’re contenders for the big dance. I feel that Ballard is taking this approach and once he knows what he has in AR, then I think we’ll see a change in mannerisms towards FA.
  3. He’s expressed his regrets for some of his choices, namely QB, many a time in his various pressers. Yet people ignore that
  4. Not saying you’re wrong but… I’m saving this post for when the Texans strategy blows up in their face. I think Ballard is too conservative but I think Caserio is too reckless. It’s gonna bite them harder than us when it back fires. As history has shown time and time again. as I’ve said for years, we are the mid 2000s chiefs under Alex smith. A team that is on the edge of the playoffs but need the right guy at the right time. Entirely plausible that AR is that guy, but we don’t know. If he turns out good to great and we own the Texans again, I hope you and others come back to eat some crow. Likewise, if the Texans somehow win a ring, I’ll eat my crow.
  5. Honestly I think it’s the smart play. We honestly don’t know what we have in AR long term. Until we know that, we’re not gonna attract big name FAs and even then will struggle to. also, 90 percent of the time, the winner in FA(the Texans this year) usually flames out after maybe a year if that. I went back and looked, in the last 20 years, only the Rams a couple years back that spent the most acquiring the biggest names and traded the most, actually made it passed the 2nd round of the playoffs. 16 of those years, the team that did what the Texans have done, didn’t make the playoffs. so I’m not worried
  6. Reading these posts proves this conversation is about as productive as trying to wipe your butt with a bicycle tire, it never ends and just gets messier… seen this once in a third world crap hole, literally.
  7. So Monday is a major solar eclipse here in the states. Homeland security, major energy, cell phone providers and the several other agencies are expecting internet and cell signal problems here in Indiana due to the number of people expected to migrate to the state to view it. They’re expecting north of 3 million addition people moving to the Indiana area starting tomorrow through Monday. Our networks aren’t designed for such influx. So much so, the military and law enforcement have broken out the old CB radios again in addition to their normal ones and will be listening for emergencies. Now personally, I think they’re overreacting but still. id highly recommend since a majority of our posters are in Indiana, that we delay until Tuesday just incase the government is actually correct in that prediction.
  8. I should be around to help cover tonight. Go enjoy your evening and don’t worry bout us 😉
  9. Yep. Though I expect if we get the numbers of visitors to the area they claim we will, that the cell towers and such will be overwhelmed
  10. Hey I’ve got power this morning! Hopefully no storms today and I’ll be on this evening
  11. All, I have very spotty cell service and no power from the storms this am, for my teams, just go BPA
  12. Fox59 is reporting it now so I’d say it’s a sad truth https://fox59.com/news/former-indianapolis-colt-vontae-davis-35-found-dead/?fbclid=IwAR3d-gBZUuJ_OvqwCynnYCYOwigIdjfk2eKfLSODf0P3OhsBWs54i-tIGlc_aem_AbwgwCRNHCIXcEOoj8oYJJWQxY38QgJNF2_dsFBbO2oXWvRadzVjQDAwMxYDgn_XnWM
  13. Not here, no he gets to be the most hated GM in this draft instead of me you all would have flipped with what I had planned
