Good stuff ….

 

[Jshep34 2308]

I'll take my serving of crow for who LT played today. No sacks allowed by the whole line.

Finally time to jump on the bandwagon?

I mean, I hope they win, but I’m still not gonna get invested.

[Texzilla58 4732]

I love this team. It reminds me of Jimmy’s team building with the 90’s Cowboys. There is just a cool vibe to how DeMeco is building this team and how it is coming together.

I have one regret with today’s win. I wish this skull fucking had been delivered to the Browns with Deshaun at qb. A total chainsaw vasectomy right up his taunt.

[RPM 26318]

I like the Texans. They've had so many diamonds dropped in their lap only to fuck it up. But I think this time, THIS TIME, it might just work. CJ is a franchise QB that rarely comes around. The front office has finally got their shit together and DeMeco Ryans is the right coach right now. This is a good team that will only get better.

[Hank Kingsley 20914]

This team is so damn likable.

@Jshep34 or whoever supposedly had insider info, can you confirm that other report that H-town blue won’t be the main color of the new jerseys and logo? That info should be spread amongst the mouth breathing NFL masses of Houston to raise hell in case they can make changes before they release a vomit disaster. 

[TonyTexas 10510]

I think an overlooked contributor to Stroud’s development is Case Keenum. He was tasked to be a mentor and has done an excellent job at it.  Supposedly, Caserio got several calls about him  this season from teams in need and promptly shut them down, thinking Case was too valuable in his role. Plus he did a a pretty good job on the field when needed.

I am all-in on this team.  Future is seriously bright for these guys.

I don't actively root against the players, but I could not buy in on the Texans franchise whether it was Capers/Kubiak/ BOB/ whatever. Loved Dre, JJ, DHop, DeMeco, and many other players through the years but the organization generally turned me off.

I'm not jumping on the bandwagon this season, but I love what Ryans brings to the table.  Can't help but respect the improvement Houston has made on the field and IMHO, also the locker room.  Keep killing it.  This is going to be a fun ride for Texans fans.  Y'all deserve it.

This is some bullshit. The blue is what made the Oilers uniforms great. Giving us some battle red bullshit with h-town blue shark tooth stripes is like eating Hill Country Fare beef fajitas.

Weather right now looks pretty good in Baltimore next weekend. Sunny, 20s/30s. 

[horn4life 3760]

Well for me this has been quite a journey.  I grew up on the Luv Ya Blue, and the move to Tennessee was sort of the end of my NFL fandom with no Houston.  Started to take some interest with JJ Watt on the squad.  But I decided I would start rooting for my old hometown team once again in 2020 and shades of the Oilers, the bed shitting began and 4-12 was the final tally I think?  Anyhow Deshaun being a moron helped send the team into turmoil, and I thought "Fuck me" any Houston team I root for is doomed if the ball isn't round.  But this year has been awesome.  You could see from the beginning the defense seemed to be a little more intense, and you saw flashes of hope with a good OL and some new key young draft picks.  I could see this team growing into something.

Having them turn the corner the same year more Horns have ascended has been frigging awesome!  They really are starting to build something!  Now just stay healthy and let's home we can get the ball to bounce our way in the coming weeks.  It's nice to have football hope again for the long suffering fans of Houston.

[Jshep34 2308]

I'd be very surprised if new uniforms look like crap. For all the past bad decisions organization has made think they have thier finger on pulse of the city now.

he doesn’t need the money, but he’d be a great qb coach

Yep. I have no problem with Kubiak. He was a good coach, as he proved by winning the Super Bowl in Denver. He got a bad rap because the GM he helped bring into the organization backstabbed the shit out of him to keep his job.

On one of my reports this week I changed the color of the day from light blue to Columbia blue. Proved my point that nobody reads my reports.

Local media covering the team were given a sneak peek of the rendering of the new unis last year and the response was positive. They obviously were not allowed to share any specifics or take any pictures but the consensus was that they looked good. It’s amazing how winning now makes me like our unis more than in the past. I couldn’t wait to get new unis when we sucked but now kind of wish we were not going to change them because they look damn good in my eyes now.

[Murfdogg21 4412]

Movin’ on up! Pick from Browns is now at #23. Thank you, Packers. Can go to #22 if Rams win tonight. 

[HtownHorn 14676]

So it can max out at 20 if the Rams and Steelers both win.

Bills and Eagles have a weaker SOS than Browns and same record (11-6), so if either lose this weekend, they would pick in front of Cleveland. So it’s just a matter of which two teams pick before and after the Browns pick and doesn’t change its position regardless of who wins those games. 
 

Detroit had 12 wins, so if they lose tonight they are behind Cleveland’s pick, which will improve to #22.

That's good for us, because it likely means the weather will be the best condition we can get. Both the Chiefs and Ravens have open-air stadiums, so it's going to be cold and shitty either way. I think I would rather have a crack at Baltimore than KC at this point, but they are both going to be a challenge on the road. Although, the thought of beating the Chiefs and making all the Swifty fans sad is also enticing.
