Adding wilfork and shorts. Kind of mad we didnt approach wilfork. Who seriously considers the texans at any point in their career honestly?

Im pretty sure wilfork and texas bbq has a lot to do with the signing...

 

well for one thing the texans have a few former pats coaching for them and he has two rings so he really doesnt need to be on a championship team

I think it makes a lot of sense, assuming he cares about chemistry and money over winning. The Texans have former Patriots personnel in Bill O'Brien and Mike Vrabel. It also might be fun to work with JJ Watt, arguably the best defender in the NFL. JJ can rush the outside while Wilfork plugs up the interior gaps.

Did YOU notice the contract Vince got from the Panicin Texans?    4-5 m per?   for a 34 year old 340lb NT?

 

 

I'll stick with Josh.

The Texans have NO QB...       JOB is like most every other coach in the NFL they think they invented the game.     

 

NO QB = no dice......          Bet the genius wishes he'd went after Teddy B right about now...

Hoyer is much better than people are giving him credit for. Houston is not that far behind. They realistically could be a 9 or 10 win team or better. They need players to stay healthy.

Desperately. One or two key injuries again and I'll be very worried.

Why do people post on here to trash division rivals just for the sake of trashing them?  Houston has a pretty solid team.  Cecil Shorts and Vince Wilfork are both good pickups.  Their defense isn't what it was under Wade Philips, but they have some talented pieces, including the guy many consider the best player in the game.

Houston is a non factor. People have to grasp the reality of our division being horrible, we swept them TWO years in a row. This is even easier then the old Peyton AFC South days.

Worry more about the team Wilfork used to be on instead.

They don't want to mention they picked up 2 games in the standings by playing the last place schedule while we played the first place schedule.  If you go by the 14 games we played against ourselves and the same opponents , we win the division by a huge margin.  Four games to be exact.

You realize you had to injure both of our QBs last year in the same game to win the division, right?

 

 

We don't know if Houston wins without the QB injuries. They very well could have as they played a great game defensively .

 

We do know that all Indy had to do was win that game or the game at home vs Tenn two weeks later to win the division. So , while there is nothing that is really incorrect about what you are saying , it just kind of doesn't do justice to how the division really was playing out when that game took place.

Since 2002, the Texans have had 2 double digit win seasons (2011, and 2012) 

 

Every other year, JJ Watt or not, the Texans have been average

 

This is a team that gets hyped up every year, just to go "around" 8-8. It may be 9-7, it may be 6-10.

 

Perennially Mediocre.

Colts would know mediocre, check out your season records from 1984-1998; that's 14 years, longer than the Texans have existed. If it weren't for two QBs miraculously saving you from then on, the team would probably be in San Antonio by now.

How many Superbowl and Playoff appearances do the Texans have?

Ooooh that would be fun. Another team in Texas besides us and the 'Girls. California wouldn't have anything on us lol.

Sorry your QBs were not protected enough or were not mobile and strong enough to keep from getting injured. The Texans also didn't have to play the Broncos or the Patriots either. So there would have been a couple of more losses. If your going to make a statement between the Colts and the Texans then be prepared to hear the truth.

You guys should know by now that you play in the sorriest division where the Colts get to sweep their opponents every year. 

 

Houston is a joke. Bill O'Brien couldn't manage to get his best player on offense to stay. i don't care who they bring in. They still won't win 10 games and you all know this, it's just hot air.

I think Houston is a better team than people give them credit for. I was routing for Houston the year the Colts went down the toilet to win it all...unfortunately they didn't as is known.

 

JJ Watt the best player in the NFL?? Hmmm, I would say no but definitely a top 10 for sure....but he is without any doubt in my mind the most athletic by miles...the guy plays solid all over the field.

Says the fan of an NFC South team. I've never seen a faster fall from the top then what the Saints have suffered.

      Chris Ballard: Redfining what Success means in the NFL

      By AKB · Posted

      Hey Everyone,   So, I just caught wind of Goodson's apology letter after dropping that short pass from Minshew against the Texans last season. Here's my humorous take on the situation:   "Dear Fans, Coaches, Teammates, and Supporters,   I'm writing to apologize for buttering up that short pass in the most critical moment against the Texans. Look, I know I'm the backup running back, but hey, I'm usually good for catching those short throws - emphasis on 'usually'. My bad for turning a routine play into a blooper reel moment.   To my teammates, sorry for making you wonder if I was secretly playing for the other team. Next time, I'll practice catching more than just footballs thrown by the water boy.   To the coaches, maybe let's reconsider throwing short passes to guys who have hands that are more slippery than a greased pig at the county fair. Just a suggestion.   And to the fans, thanks for turning my drop into a meme. I promise to work on my catching skills so I can make highlights, not lowlights, next season.   Sincerely, Goodson (aka the running back who should stick to running)"   Okay, maybe I exaggerated a bit, but you get the gist. Let's hope Goodson has been hitting those catching drills hard this offseason!

      I remember looking for highlights of TJ after we drafted him.  I kept finding videos of him following OJ Howard into the endzone.  Not sure if Howard was his responsibility, but it didn't paint a promising picture.

      Chris Ballard: Redfining what Success means in the NFL

      By AKB · Posted

      Ballard,   So, yeah, about that whole "bust" thing—I guess the cat's out of the bag. Turns out, I'm more of a popcorn fart than a thunderclap. My bad.   When you drafted me, I thought I was gonna be the Colts' next big thing. You know, sacking quarterbacks, making highlight reels, maybe even getting my face on a cereal box someday. But instead, I've been about as useful as a screen door on a submarine.   I've watched the tapes, Coach. I've seen the memes. They're comparing my NFL career to a hangover—starts off with high hopes, and ends with regret and a lot of Gatorade. And honestly, I get it. I'm like that guest who shows up to a party uninvited and ends up eating all the chips.   So, here's my mea culpa. I apologize for not living up to the hype. For every missed tackle, every missed sack, and that one time I accidentally tackled our own quarterback in practice (sorry, Philip). I'm like the guy who brings a guitar to a party and insists on playing Wonderwall—I'm annoying and not nearly as good as I think I am.   But hey, I'm not giving up. I'm hitting the gym, studying film (mostly bloopers at this point), and practicing my touchdown dance for when pigs finally fly. I promise to work harder and maybe, just maybe, I'll redeem myself and earn my place in the Hall of Mediocrity.   Thanks for believing in me, and letting me live my dream for 4 years straight whilst simultaneously producing nothing for your team. I'll make you proud yet, even if it's just by being the team's MVP of Bust Central, and we aren't talking bronze heads.    Sincerely, Ben "The Bust" Banagous (Not sponsored by Gatorade yet, but a guy can dream)
