    Agree. I let Miller get healthy for the playoffs.

    Vandal Savage has always interested me as a character so that's what I voted.

    Too much of a sample size with Brock and not enough results. I think people would riot putting Brock back in. Game plan needs to be better for Savage and the o line also. While not perfect, savage is just better for this offense than Oz. Plus lack of game tape on Savage helps us out

    Just stop running the ball every first and second down.

    If you take the playoffs into account than yeah, maybe...but hell even Hoyer had some 'good' games. This crap we're watching this year is unbearable. Our offense is like watching someone with CP trying to sketch up the death star plans.

    David Carr said he was unavailable & unwilling to come out of retirement. He said watching this OL gives him flashbacks to earlier playing days.

    However, I did get word that Ronnie Brown was willing to come out of retirement & run the wildcat for at least one game.

    Hoyer is considerably worse than either Savage or Osweiler.....and we saw that earlier in the season when the Texans beat the Chiefs now that they didn't have their MVP, Brian Hoyer.

    How do you figure that? What is considerably considered?

    Well with Hoyer we could count on about 4 interceptions and no TD's, With Osweiler it might be 2 interceptions and 2 TD's. That's considerably better.

    Yeah if you mean just the one playoff shellacking I agree, but this season Brock was turrible compared to what we got out of Hoyer last year...I'm sure Hopkins would agree :/

    Hoyer got lit up like that every time the Texans played a good defense. As to Hopkins, I don't really care about his opinion given that he played like crap for most of the season. He has no one but himself to blame for his poor performance.

    Hoyer was benched the first time the Texans played the Chiefs due to being god-awful, and he SHOULD have been benched when he was their MVP in the playoffs. Look at the Texans game when they beat the Chiefs this year, it's clear who the better QB is.....and honestly even Savage who has 0 career TD passes is better than Hoyer. He's the worst QB the Texans have run out there in franchise history.

    And all the other Non-Chiefs games where Brock stunk it up don't matter? Honestly, the chiefs aren't the same team then they are now at this point of the season. Do you think we'd have the same result if Brock started against KC in the playoffs next week?

    Again, by comparison to Hoyer, he did well. Especially given the sad state of the O line.

    I'm glad people are now seeing that Savage isn't the answer either.
