Currently we are tied with Jacksonville and Atlanta for the number one pick. Minnesota and Tampa Bay have an outside chance. I believe Atlanta has had the easier schedule so they win the tie breaker for the number one pick. Remaining Schedule for contending teams: Houston: vs New England @ Jacksonville @ Indianapolis vs Denver @ Tennessee Jacksonville: @ Cleveland vs Houston vs Buffalo vs Tennessee @ Indianapolis Atlanta: @ Buffalo @ Green Bay vs Washington @ San Francisco vs Panthers Minnesota: vs Chicago @ Baltimore vs Philadelphia @ Cincinnati vs Detroit Tamba Bay @ Carolina vs Buffalo vs San Francisco @ St. Louis @ New Orleans Atlanta and Tampa Bay have the toughest remaining schedule.
So that's 3 extremely loseable games. It's tough to lose to the Jaguars twice, but I have faith in this squad. This team never does anything right, so I'm sure we'll beat Tenessee to finish the year. 3-13, that should be bad enough.
I need to make a correction. If the season ended today, we would have the number one pick Atlanta SOS: .592 Jacksonville: .580 Houston: .542 Other contenders for #1: Minnesota: .525 Tampa Bay: .558 Washington: .514
Exactly. Unless they are drafting Clowney, which seems unlikely, it doesn't even matter what pick we have.
I think we go with Teddy here; Louisville and the Texans run almost the same scheme with lots of play action, zone runs, and west coast concepts
If you prefer Bridgewater or Mariota to Manziel, you hope the Texans lose every remaining game. Like it or not, the odds are overwhelming that McNair will expect a QB be taken in the first round.
I prefer Bridgewater over all. And I want the Texans to take a QB. To be safe, I think we're fine if ATL picks first....because they're not going to take a QB in the first round. If it ends up with HOU with the first pick...or ATL with the first pick and HOU with the second pick..I still think we get the guy that the organization pins as being the best QB in the draft. Obviously that won't be the case if JAX drafts ahead of us. Anyone think that TB thinks they found their QB in Glennon? If he continues to play like he has for the rest of the season, I doubt seriously TB takes a QB in the first round.
