If you truly want what you typed in the last paragraph, then you should root for Cary to win his lawsuit and the NFL to force the McNair's to sell the team.
I get it. You are all sunshine and daisies. You can choose to be the ever loving optimist that lives in a perfect fantasy world. Facts are facts. Darnold has a better season on his resume than does CJ. That isn’t debatable. Ultimately that wasn’t even the conversation. Houstontime has moved the goal post several times. First, it was who has had a similar situation and performed well. Darnold did in 24, under the same circumstances as CJ in 24. Then it was CJ has a better season on his resume, 23. But that’s not the case either. Now it’s, but what if this, or what if that. You and him are going off feelings and projections, based off of flashes from a season 3 years ago. Live in reality. It’s fine to hope for the best. I’m a Texans fan, I want what’s best for the entire team, not just the current QB of the team. Also, you don’t know me. I support everyone on this team, including Stroud. But I also live in reality
I don't care who owns the team. That is not something I can control and who is Cary? Didn't know about any lawsuit and I simple don't care. Is the owner in the way here? Did they waste $$$ on bad coaches. Wait, never mind, KICK THEM OUT!
Question, did anyone ever debate with you? You have your take and others have theirs. Me, sunshine and daisies? That's great. Thanks for the complement. I don't want to waste my life on "facts", that, like statistics, can be used in such a way to make your point look great. You support the team, that, is a given, if you didn't you wouldn't waste your time here. But here is the thing, your reality is based on the half empty glass notion that CJ is bad QB, cannot get better, will not get the job done. You are certain, he was a bad pick for the team, the Rookie of the year is anomaly, and now, he is showing his true nature. I must admit, CJ, did himself no favors with last year's Playoff play. With that said, I do hope you are wrong, but regardless, bottomline is the same. Just win.
If you can find one place I’ve said anything remotely close to that, since we’ve drafted CJ, you would be believable. It’s hyperbolic takes like this that make it hard to take any of you seriously. You let emotion control your interpretation
I won't go deep into this, Cary McNair's Cal's brother and he's got a lawsuit going against Cal and the NFL. Buzbee is representing Cary.
Peace to you. And regardless how you feel, not feel, what you said or not said. In the end, we both want this team to win. I have taste routing for a team that won 5 Superbowls and it felt great. Yes, I did live in San Francisco, and no, I don't miss that place at all. And if and when this city finally gets a Superbowl winning NFL team, then let's all celebrate together. First things first, MVP for (CJ) kidding, most improved?? Or how about WAJ for DPOY. But that dude now playing for the Rams may have a say.
If CJ gets most improved, we win the chip. I’m here for it. WAJ has a strong shot, but honestly the LA love for Garrett will be too strong to overcome.
You used to live in the Bay Area? Me too... Benicia, but I worked in Berkeley... I was a 49ers fan from 1980 until about 2005 (passing on Rogers for Alex Smith was the final straw for me personally)... I used to go to sports bars in Jacksonville and West Palm Beach with my #32 Texans jersey (32nd franchise!) and my 1994 49ers championship hat on. Difference conferences was my justification... lol Jags fans broke the Texans flag off my car 2X and this was in early 2002 before we had even played a game yet.... all these flavors and they chose salty
Nobody moved goalposts.. YOU said a better season, didn’t know it had to be the same season. I AGREE, he has regressed, I AGREE those 2 playoff games were atrocious. But I don’t think anyone would have picked Darnold after ‘24 season over CJ stroud and where he was at that point in his career and where Sam was (except you and a couple others here who never liked stroud since we got him and only ate crow for about a week after he won OROY). The stats were similar, despite what you say, and a 1yr- 37mil contract is just not realistic for QBs who have done what stroud has. Sam only got it because he sucked so bad in NY. And while the players around them might have been similar in ‘24, the fact still remains the OL was 26 here and 15 in Minnesota and the coaching was VASTLY superior on the offensive side for the Vikings than here. Im trying to show where I agree and disagree in hopes that you can do the same, in a graceful discourse. But frustrating other posters with zero concessions while just blasting them as homers does not equal winning the argument.
You keep talking about Oline rankings, what rankings are you using? The 24 Vikes Oline and Texans Oline gave up virtually the same pressure rates and sack rates.
