    I don't honestly think any of our players care about what that fat slob says

    Dont know, but that's the rumor out there.

    If he comes back and say he goes to Oregon and has a Nix type season he could become a top 10 pick.

    Could be but I wouldn't risk it. He'd go in the first this season. Oregon would be a great program for him to excel. I wish him well. I've been frustrated at times but he's played well for UT

    Michael Jordan, the greatest athlete of our generation, would have cared. He would have used it as motivation to drop 50 on the other team. I see people in the media saying we don't deserve to be in the playoffs, that we are a lousy team etc. If I were a player on the team I would use that to fuel me and prove everyone wrong

    Who's Rex Ryan? Any relation with Buddy Ryan? Perhaps he inherited foot in mouth disease.

    Tacks just love celebrating those 8-8 Jeff Fisher Tennessee Oilers seasons.

    Jordan used everything as motivation. I was specifically speaking about Ryan. He's been a blowhard his entire career. Whatever works though. Let's beat the Chargers

    Used to be a coach. Now he's a commentator. Not sure if he's related to Buddy

    Yes, to all of the above. Also loves feet (probably in his mouth)

    4. Houston Texans

    Myth: The injuries to receivers Tank Dell and Stefon Diggs sank the Texans' offense.

    Diggs, who was Houston's marquee offseason addition, suffered his season-ending ACL injury in Week 8 against the Colts. From Week 9 through 17, Houston was 25th in the NFL in offensive efficiency and 18th in points per game. Dell suffered his season-ending ACL/knee cap injury in Week 16 against the Chiefs. Four days later, Houston scored just two points in a loss to Baltimore.
    Quarterback C.J. Stroud was expected to take a step forward this season and join the top tier of NFL quarterbacks after his brilliant rookie year. Neither he nor the Texans' offense did so, and it's easy to argue that not having his receivers has been a big factor. Top WR Nico Collins missed five games in the middle of the season with an injury of his own, too.

    Why it's a myth: The Houston offense has plenty of other problems. Collins is the real key to the passing game, and the Texans ranked 20th in offensive efficiency and 22nd in offensive EPA from Weeks 6 to 10 when he was out with an injury. But the bigger issue the Texans had this season was the drop-off in offensive line performance.

    They ranked 10th in the NFL last season with a pass block win rate of 61% despite struggling with injuries along the line. This season, that number was down to 57.7%, which ranked 22nd in the league. In particular, they've struggled on the interior relative to last year. Their run block win rate by guards last season was 70.9%, which ranked 13th in the league; this season, that number was 66.4%, which ranked 28th.

    Diggs and Dell would help, but neither is coming back for the playoffs. And with or without them, Stroud was pressured on 35.8% of his dropbacks this season, fourth highest in the league. The Texans likely aren't going far if they can't block better for Stroud than they did in the regular season.

    Maybe the late 1st and I think he's better than that. That's why I think he should go back to school.

    I'm not sure. Teams reach for QBs. I'd come out but I respect the opposite opinion. Look at how high EJ Manuel went

    Depends on when and where, but they can absolutely kill a drive...or take away a FG...or?

    No quote needed, just posting Rex Ryan's face around the locker room would piss off anyone

    They can take away a FG. But a couple of false starts a game any above avg offense should be able to overcome. Look at the Chiefs as an example, their OT's have false starts all of the time.

    Posters are being overly critical about a relatively minor mistake that happens a couple of times a game IMHO.
