Texans....

[ridik01]

Changing gears....How the F' do we change the Texans? This is our 11th loss......WTF??????

Do we:

- Trade Schaub away for an O-line and keep Keenum as QB?

- Trade Keenum and Schaub away for an O-line, and draft a QB(but who)?

- Disband the team and bring back the Oilers?

- Trade Schaub, Keenum, Cushings, and others for Peyton Manning, and tell Kubiak to take a hike?

This is pitiful! Seriously pitiful!

Need a coach and a QB.

I posted this before but here's the start of what needs to happen:

1. Fire Gary Kubiak and get rid of Schaub. Take the hit if you have to capwise but he needs to be gone.

2. Trade the #1 overall pick and turn it into two first rounders

3. Draft a dynamic dual threat QB (there are plenty coming out)

Then you go from there.

1. Agree

2. Agree

3. There is not a QB in this draft that is head and shoulders better than Keenum.

3. On paper that may very well be correct, but no shame in giving yourself options.

I know TJ Yates can win games, I think Keenum can, and Id like to believe Manziel or whoever could as well. The biggest issue is (like Case McCoy when Ash struggled) Kubiak has his safety blanket to trot out there, throw a horrible interception, and prevent Keenum from going through the growing pains he needs to.

Am I crazy for thinking they could win with Colt? Or maybe I'm just a little biased.

 

[Lord Vader]

With a full offseason he wouldnt do bad at all, but he's not going to win a Super Bowl

The thing is this team is so bad that drafting a QB in the 1st round doesn't help fill the holes at LG, RT, OLB, S, CB, ILB, DL, and special teams. So why waste a pick on a guy that may be marginally better than the one you have instead of upgrading at another position that is obvious.

Personally I would try to trade down and get Barr, Clowney, or Matthews.

 

[Lord Vader]

I think you can find guys later or in free agency to fill spots.

Also, is this noon presser today normal stuff for Kubiak?

 

[Donald Boyles]

Who was the player that they drafted instead of Vince Young?

Williams. The guy that's 3rd in the NFL in sacks.

Bridgewater over Clowney is repeating the same mistake the Texans made in their 1st draft taking Carr over Peppers. The Texans have to build their lines before thinking about taking a QB.

If you go that route you end up middle of the pack and dont' win anything. You have to have a good QB in today's game. If you have awesome lines you won't ever draft high enough to obtain star QB.

Sounds familiar.

You mean like the current Super Bowl champion QB that was drafted in the 2nd half of the 1st round(and he's really not good) or they guy that started opposite him taken in the 2nd. How about the guy on the best team in the NFL going in the 3rd round? Bridgewater is not Luck or Griffin, nor is he head and shoulders better than Keenum. Bridgewater reminds me a lot of Ponder and Locker, do you want to trade for those guys?

You build a team without as many holes as the Texans have, then you find out what you have at QB and go from there.

Kubiak is gone now. Wonder who they'll look at now? Cowher, Lovie???

Before the Texans can be fixed, people need to understand how they won 12 straight to start last season and then lost 16 of their next 18 games. What went so right for the first 12 games last year and so wrong since? Until those questions are answered the problem hasn't been defined and until the problem is defined there can't be a proper solution.

Injuries, aging of veterans, bad personnel decisions, and a playing not to lose coaching philosophy.
