    No, I just think Mills should be benched. You guys act like we're gonna win a bunch of games if he's benched. I'm just looking to see something better than this garbage. There are people on here who have been rooting for us to lose since game 4.

    Disagree. There isn't much difference between #1-4 draft picks.

    Cooks for Golladay. A change of scenery may do both of these guys some good.

    I think there will be 5 QBs chosen in the draft but no one I think is better than Young, that's why I want the Texans to lose out and continue playing Mills.

    That being the case, if the #4 team wants to be sure to get the guy they want, the #1 team can trade down and get valuable draft capital.

    Tell that to any team that took a QB at one or two and then went on to win Super Bowls.

    The rub? Not many QBs taken #1 or #2 have won Superbowls.

    Wouldn't you rather have Peyton Manning over Ryan Leaf? Or Mike Vick over Gerard Warren? Matthew Stafford over Aaron Curry?

    Plenty of Super Bowl Quarterbacks were drafted below that, and some of the best weren't even drafted in the first round.

    Or Mahomes over the guys drafted above him. Or Drew Brees over the guys who were picked in round one that year, or Tom Brady over the guys in all the rounds above him. LOL.

    Obviously. There have only been 24 quarterbacks drafted number one overall since 1967. There's probably been 500 QBs drafted overall. I like the odds.


    To pretend that there's not a huge difference between the number one pick and the number four pick, especially when you need a quarter ack, and there are two number one worthy quarterbacks in the draft, is asinine.


    It's the reason this fanbase love an 8-8 team. Lmao

    You can cherry pick players all you want. As I said in my last post. 24 number one overall QBs versus the other 500 in the league. You still have a much higher hit rate on pro bowl caliber quarterbacks if you go by those numbers.

    Let's not try and cover up a ridiculous statement by cherry picking examples based of flase logic. Or do it - if you're happy to watch a team that is slightly more competitive than the bottom of the league for the next 20 years.

    Tell that to those who picked Josh Allen at 7 when Baker Mayfield and Sam Darnold we're 1 & 2.. Keep rooting for us to lose is loser mentality like our coaches. I'd pick Will Anderson over a QB at #1.

    The Texans bend but don’t break defense always ends up breaking.

    Young is too short. Won't be able to see in the pocket. You got Mills with a 12ft neck and still gets his balls deflected.
