you do realize that Kubiak/Smith are drafting better than teams with far worse records? drafting is not this teams problem under Kubiak/Smith. People need to let this weak argument die.
I agree, but people fall too much in love with the "you have to live on one end of the spectrum or the other", either have a team that is drafting in the top 3 of the draft or have a team that is drafting at the end of the draft. A part of me feels that way but at the same time this team needs to build a winning culture
I think he meant that because we're winning when we've no shot at the playoffs (in years past at least), we end up with lower draft picks that we would have if they had just continued to suck. That winning when it doesn't matter costs us talent because we pick lower in the draft. It has nothing to do with how we draft, jsut that there may be less talent available when we draft. For the record, I support winning always. But it's frustrating to watch a team suck automatically turn it on when there's nothing left to play for.
Obviously, but it does prove the point that a play can be run in under 8 seconds with time still left.
Thank you cannonball. Thats exactly what i mean. i know we draft well. but i'm sick of them teasing us, giving us hope for the playooffs, and then blowing those important games. Then when we need a miracle to have a 1% chance we all of a sudden win out. Just sickening.
I'm hoping there's no second half dud. Schaub has a chance to beat Norm Van Brocklin's NFL record 554 passing yards in a game if there is no second half dud(I think that's still the record). He's got a decent shot, if nothing else, at setting a Houston record in passing yards (held by Warren Moon at 527 yards). I haven't read through the thread, but someone has probably already thrown that jinx out there.
