    Actually worse, because Jacoby's error showcased both his mental and physical pathetic-ness.

    Bill Buckner will always be remembered for that one play... Jacoby... hopefully he'll never be remembered.

    I don't think it was all on Jacoby but that bone-headed play set the tone. I'm really proud of our defense and am extremely happy that Wade is coming back. This defense will only get better... especially with Mario coming back. We have a lot of playoff games to look forward to with this team. I hope that quaterback Matt Schaub can stay healthy next season. We will make some noise next year no doubt!!! So proud of this team and a lot more expectations coming for the next year!!!!! Congrats on a great season and Go TEXANS!!!

    Way worse.

    Buckner was a very good ball player for many years who is unfortunately remembered for one error.

    Jones is just a frickin bonehead. Period.

    Why was Jacoby even on the field? Why was he put in a position to hurt us? Who bears responsibility for that decision?

    Well, he can't catch and is dumber than a box of rocks.

    But he is very fast.

    Unfortunately he doesn't run forward, though.

    So yeah, he's pretty much worthless

    If he isn't cut before the draft, I'll be outraged.

    McNair and Smith need to sit Kubiak down and put an end to his orphanage for garbage players.

    Wasn't Buckner actually kind of good before that play?

    I know Steve Francis is highly regarded by some here, but both exhibit that certain knuckleheadness and both overrate their actual talent. And Jacoby has the most flamingly rainbow Montrose TD dances I've ever seen.

    Did Bill Buckner screw up the final out of the game?

    if Jacoby Jones made that same error he did vs. the Ravens in the Super Bowl THEN you could compare him to Bill Buckner.

    Yeah. Except Steve Francis was a selfish player, but not a dumb one.
    Jacoby Jones is a r****d.

    I'd think I'd rather have Bill Buckner returning kickoffs. Is he available?

    At least Buckner would've been smart enough to let that ball go.
