    Sure, but we are also the newest team.

    Have all of them since 2002?

    My differences
    - Osweiler: Probably. That entire Osweiler team all season was "Win in spite of Osweiler" baked into every game. And he did win a Texans playoff game. (Ironically flamed out vs Patriots. But his Patriots dud was slightly better than CJ's dud).
    - Hoyer: No. Cuz he literally played the exact same as CJ in playoffs.

    All the others get benefit of the unknown.

    Misc:
    - Tony Banks: Maybe. But it was Tony Banks who was benched for Trent Dilfer on 2000 Ravens. But I think Texans version Banks might pull off a TJ Yates fill-in W

    Also most the others don't have 1st round draft pedigree. So it's more "understandable" if a journeyman Rosencopter or Fitzmagic flame out.

    But the Offensive Rookie Of The Year not offensing, is another thing.

    My heart goes out to my hometown fans, and to that amazing defense (amazing but for two plays anyway).

    I more follow my local Niners now, and we have a very similar problem: What to think of the QB who keeps having brain farts? Purdy has fewer, but he still has a couple of deadly ones per game, plus the 49ers have already committed huge $ to him. Y'all do not have to do that with Stroud.

    Purdy also seems to have a better attitude and more natural confidence.

    I don't know. But I hope y'all go ahead and draft a young QB!

    Caleb Williams making the hero plays CJ thinks he's about to make before he fumbles or throws another INT.

    That's true. I just hate that Jayden Daniels, Drake Maye and possibly Caleb Williams may all be getting to the conference championship round before CJ but we are so happy with getting to the divisional round and losing 3 straight years...

    Lol well at least with this Caleb INT it gave the Rams the ball back on the 20, so one of those interception punts.
