Nice year

It was a great year and what I wanted from this team.  Frankly 11 wins is more than a lot of people said they would get before the year started and I said all I wanted was a division championship and a playoff win and we got that.  Step forward no question.  I know tonight is disappointing and it's even more disappointing because it's New England but again two years after 2-14 and pretty much gutting the roster I am happy with the season.  Still room for improvement no question.

Successful year but all those people saying we'd see a super bowl team in 3-4 years last year were way off base.  Hope the fans and organization can stay happy with being AFC South champions for a while because this team won't be super bowl ready for another 5-6 years.

Sigh......sad it is over and I didn't honestly expect this many points overall to be put into this game. Especially with the weather.

 

I hate that we lost......and initially I did want to play Denver and it is brutal winning in NE.

 

 

We'll be back though but I hate the feeling that we could have competed a lot better in this game overall too.

I think we had a good year, i obviously wanted to win the big one but we got outclased today and happens, need to improve O-Line, get healthy and draft good again.

We need to find a big DT too.  That's what is really missing from the defense.  Someone who can eat up the middle and free up the other guys to do things.

Does anyone recall that we were expected to go 2-14 last year and possibly win 7 games this year and not even be in the playoff hunt? In two years, some teams would love to be where the Colts are in terms of player growth and development. The future is bright even though the loss hurts.

    • Yeah, Ebukam almost looks clumsy next to Latu. He's just so fluid.
    • Did Hou actually get that much better? This really does remain to be seen. I am of the opinion that the signing of Diggs is a signing that has been made about 2 years too late. He won't be bad, but he isn't a top 10 WR in the NFL anymore. I wouldn't put him as any more dangerous that Pittman, so WR's are a push. We have the better RB, Mixon is great and all, but he is not JT. We have the better Oline, and it isn't even close. TE's are a push, we have a lot of upside, but until it is realised im very "meh" on our TEs. QB - I would argue that Stroud is probably more likely to regress to the mean in year 2 vs improve. That rookie season of his was a bit silly, and they had an easier schedule last season too. If he really does build on last year and get even better, then our entire discourse here is probably irrelevant as we will have another Mahomes level QB on our hands to deal with in the AFC and within the AFC South no less. So unless Richardson is also a Mahomes level talent in that scenario, we are done for anyways. To me, our success in this coming season comes down to 2 groups on this entire team. 1. The QB (because... duh) 2. Our DBs. If we even get average play from the DBs, I think this team has the ability to win the whole damned thing (supposing Richardson stays healthy and is what we all hope he is). I would also argue that Houston are paper thin. If they lose a OL starter, Mixon or even one of their starting WRs.... they have a very big drop off. And injuries happen in the NFL. Just sayin...
    • If he wasn’t fast enough or athletic enough anymore for linebacker, then he’s not going to be able to cut it at Safety where speed , quickness, athleticism are even more important.    Wish it wasn’t so…. 
    • could he be another bob sanders at that position?
    • Man I love me some Maniac, but it won't happen, and he's too slow after his surgeries.
