Maybe. Just like how I will be pissed if the VY lovers have any influence in the moves this team makes.
I say negative on that. I think the Texans should have a self imposed 4-year moratorium on trading away draft picks, especially for a Rob Johnson redux.
we're gonna have influence. we won't stop. we're gathering. we live in your neighborhoods. we're in your schools. some of us are dating your daughters. we're infiltrating the texans, as evidenced by the behind-the-scenes glimpses that they've tried to trade DC. we might be sitting next to you at the game, assuming you go.
I do think it is a possibility the Carr haters, sports talk shows who start petitions do get rid of Carr etc might have an impact on the Texans decisions. I hope not. I cringe when I hear that fans "can't take another year of Carr" or that The Texans have to get rid of Carr no matter what we get in return, if anything. I just don't get it. I don't care if the make a QB move. I just care why.
I want go to a Texans game this year. It's just not a priority to me money-wise. I would go for sure for free, and it doesnt matter if Carr is the QB.
So what do you want them to do ima? Like I said,I could see moving down,but now there are rumors about a move up. Is Quinn a smokescreen? Who would you want out of Joe Thomas,Calvin Johnson,and Adrian Peterson? Obviously Thomas at left tackle would finally take care of that for the next 10 years. Johnson and Andre would be sick together. But how do you pass on a talent like AP if given the chance? I see him as a Hall of Fame type back. And what do we do about QB?
Either take the best player available at #8 or trade down and get more picks. Don't trade up and give away picks. Too may holes to fill. No more giving away picks EVER. If AP is there at 8, I soooooo take him. I don't think he will be, though. As far as QB goes, maybe take someone in the 2nd round like Kolb.
At this point, as far as QB ratings go, it seems like Kolb will be around in the third, amybe even fourth round. At least that's what it seems like to me.
well apparently your expections are really low if thats the case. there would be no competition...carr would have the job...and that would not be a good thing for texans football. How much longer can you go not realizing andre's full potential? This team would have another 5 or 6 win season at the helm.
If anything, its the other receivers that arent getting attention. We go all out with Andre...He led the league in catches, but also had some drops that were on him, not Carr.
Quinn, imo is Carr with a lesser arm. The anti-VY sentiment on this board is incredible. Why the hate?[/QUOTE] Apologize for the double post. Damned RoadRunner Cable Internet!
That won't stop cracks like this from coming from the VYOFs... Interesting hypothesis. I never looked at him in that light. In a word: Fear. Fear that the Texans actually passed on a once in lifetime player for a guy they now can't even give away - a guy who is no longer the answer here at QB. Fear that he (VY) will ultimately realize his true potential and help transform Tennessee into another 900-lb gorilla in this division to go along with Indianapolis (Now how much would that suck? As Manning's career winds down, VY's career takes off and the Texans stand in place). Fear that passing up on VY will curse and condemn this franchise to bottom feeder status for at least a decade maybe more. Fear that we passed on a guy who could have been the next Earl Campbell for the Texans.
This team could easily go 8-8 with Carr next season. We were an overtime and a close loss away from doing it last year. I still don't see the point in immediately getting rid of Carr for nothing in the QB spot in return. That makes the team worse, not better. I have to problem in upgrading the QB position. I just want to take the time to make sure it is a good move. I have no problem with the team drafting Quinn if they honestly and completely believe it is the best pick for the team. Shipping Carr out now just to satisfy the haters when you get nothing in return, making the position worse and spending or much money just doesn't make any sense. Why can't you people understand that?
I disagree. The so-called "fanboys" are entitled to their opinion after all, this is a forum for opinions is it not?. Rest assured that if by some miracle of creation, the Texans actually make it to a SuperBowl in my lifetime, these guys would absolutely cream in their pants in trying to score tickets while painting themselves red & blue. Winning cures everything and all the Texans have to do is start winning and keep on winning for life to good for us all. Anyway, it's not what the Texans did about VY that's important now because while it does look like they really blew that one, no amount of b****ing will change what happened. No, what's important is what they can now do to insure that this team and franchise does not get relegated to also-ran status in their division for the next decade or so. The Texans' organization may like to think that they are playing a game called football but the reality is that they are actually playing Survivor. And they would do well to take to heart the 3 tenets of Survivor: Outwit, Outthink & Outplay your competition.
Dude, if people come in here wanting the Texans to lose it is the same as pople coming in here wanting the Rockets to lose. **** them. I will hate them plain and simple.
