    Not great but those years we had with Andre and Foster and good OL plus Wade's defense were fun.

    No schaub injury and we might have a super bowl win

    Got to give it a C.

    End of day they have won 4 division titles and that's with a few throw away seasons early on. Until this last week really little to no off field issues.

    Tailgating is the best and organization has been stable.

    The downside has been clear, horrible decision making at the QB position and it took Rick Smith years to figure out how to be a decent GM.

    Hopefully he continues to make solid moves and Watson is the guy for the next decade.

    I would give it a d-c-, fking texans like to be medicore. There was no logical excuse to waste andre johnson/foster prime. I hope we make some moves to support our savior Watson.

    D because this ownership group and FO could have had Peyton Manning and didn't do it. Also our first player ever was a bum LT whom everyone knew was old and busted. COuld have had Willie Roaf instead and maybe David Carr isn't murdered that first year.

    Would have been an F if not for drafting Watt, Watson, and having some AFC South success.

    These two stats are truly telling.

    You never know what you're going to get from one season to the next with this team. Now that we discovered the QB version of MJ I give them a solid C.

    Look at the first 15 years of every franchise in the NFL. See how many Conference championship appearance, Superbowl appearances, and just playoff appearance each team has.

    I give it a F for sure. 15 stinking years and you cant find a decent quarterback...and football is all about "THE QUARTERBACK"

    I'll give them a C. They have been bad mostly but they have kept our attention.

    The 15-year rebuild still going.

    The "expansion team" excuse is only valid for the first 5 years. With all the resources available including drafts and free agency, no team should spend this long without a franchise QB unless you're the Browns.
