    actually 2011 should have been the year for us but patriots get involved again, cutting fatty the week the bucs play us, then he signs with the bucs and breaks liz(s)franc or whatever that b****'s name is.

    happy for those kids. kubiak had to be whacked after hitching himself to schaubie. Once 8 sank, it made everyone look bad and the writing was on the wall for the firings.

    Peyton Manning is a qb Houston should have signed... that's the difference.

    Yeah, happy for Kubes and Bum's kid. No ill will at all, and it's a shame it didn't work out here. And Peyton gets his shot at the John Elway ending.

    why? if kubiak had all the power and he chose schaubie. Can't do anything about it. and at the time, you couldn't fault kubiak for doing so. he had a beastly D and zone running game. To me, it makes sense that smith and bob were the ones contacting manning, but kubes vetoed and vouched for schaubie, front office listened...2013 season happened and the F.O was embarrassed. hence why the firing was kind of classless. At least I thought so, It should have happened on black monday.

    I'd love to see them win and Peyton ride off into the sunset on top.

    The Panthers will be tough to beat, though.

    Happy for him and Wade making it to the Super Bowl. I'm not sure if they'll win against that ridiculous Carolina team, but it's been a great year for them thus far.

    No one was saying this when they had Tebow as QB. Or even midway through this season when they couldn't figure out who was going to play QB. Or when they got beat at home by the Colts last year and two years earlier by the Ravens.

    :confused:

    Not sure if you're serious or you're just trying to nitpick. All I know is the Broncos are on their way to another Super Bowl. Texans could only currently dream of having the success the Broncos have had over the years. You don't have that type of success without being ran well. Oh and by the way, the Broncos took a chance with Manning instead of keeping Tebow because they knew Tebow was not the answer even though he took them to the playoffs and won a playoff game. If the Texans were in a similar position, they probably would have kept Tebow over Manning.

    It just keeps rolling back around to Rick Smith but by no means does McNair get a pass, he's the Head Idiot in Charge.

    Kubiak is a good coach. Texans had that collapse year mainly because Schaub declined so much

    The Broncos just picked Osweiller over Manning mid-season. If they got blown out by the Patriots or by the Steelers last week, we would be calling them a joke. My point is, it is easy to look like a genius when you are winning with Wade Philips and his #1 defense and going to the super bowl. The Bronc0s have had their share of head-scratching moves. If anything, this makes me feel worse about Schaub's (and to a lesser extent Mario's) injuries in the 2011 season. Defense wins championships. Wade knows defense.

    The Houston Broncos or if you prefer, the Denver Texans

    They have our:

    Former Head Coach
    Former Defensive Coordinator
    Former Tight End who caught both their TD passes
    A QB who wanted to come here before landing in Denver.

    I think Kubiak knows offense too. He had the Ravens playing pretty well last year if I remember correctly.

    Being happy is better than being sad.
