Dump Palmer NOW!!! - Houston Texans Message Board & Forum

BigDTexansFan · 08-21-2004

He calls 2 running plays which don't work, so in 3rd and loooong (which anyone knows is a passing down)..he throws. I mean if he is no smarter than that maybe we need to let David call his own plays, you can't keep calling conservative football take some chances Palmer or let QB call his game we might lose but we sure won't lose games like we have trying to play it SAFE...he did that last week instead of going for end zone when we had ball on 6 he called running plays......I know I saw several times last season where Carr would come off field and talk on phone and then in frustration throw it down...

**utahmark** · 08-21-2004

who cares its preseason. hes not trying to confuse anyone, he's evaluating players.

Huge · 08-21-2004

Yep, it's preseason but it looks as if some are already in mid-season form.

OzzO · 08-21-2004

Ummm... maybe it's to see what Hollings and our O-line can do on a run play? Noticed there were no issues on the Dallas game. Welcome to preseason.

Dump i d i o t ic posts NOW!!!! (Gotta put the spaces in to get a point across.)

Hervoyel · 08-21-2004

Damn that was quick. Not even halftime of the second preseason game and someone is already calling for Palmers head. Anyone around here know if that was a record or not?

Palmer bashing is also in mis season form also. Who can blame them though... we seen this thing happen so many times.

Actually it was the Palmer bashers I was referring to.

I thought this thread was someone being sarcastic.....wow.

DR#1 · 08-21-2004

in my opinion i don't think it's Palmer, but i'm not seeing anything from Tony Hollings

Have you seen how bad the offensive line has looked?!?!?!?!? They are opening no holes for Hollings to run through...

OzzO · 08-21-2004

Dang... so THAT'S where our playbook ended up before it was found!!!

Hervoyel · 08-21-2004

Capers wanted consistency this week and I guess he got it. The team is consistently bad. It's no big deal at this point. The starters came in and were stuck in neutral the first couple of series. They seemed to be putting it together and getting on track just about the time they were done for the night.

Yeah maybe the Steelers are reading Peek's playbook...

DR#1 · 08-21-2004

yea i just hope we learn from our mistakes and don't make the same ones during the regular season cuz this score looks bad, but we are also away

Sadly, it is not the record for this message board.

mulpwr · 08-21-2004

I am sure he is a better offensive cordinator then he was a head coach.

**texasguy346** · 08-21-2004

What? No love for Palmer? I say blame the waterboy. He didn't have that water & gatorade there fast enough for the players. How can they perform if they aren't properly hydrated? FIRE THE WATERBOY!!!!! :hehe:

mes311 · 08-21-2004

I didn't realize they had found that playbook.

Hervoyel · 08-21-2004

Well, New England got the snot stomped out of them by the Bengals so we're in good company. For the record I'd like to say that IMO there are only two kinds of teams that dominate preseason games. One type is good plain and simple. They're so good and so deep that they're going to win more often than not whether it's preseason or the regular season. The other kind are your bad teams trying to build momentum. I'm not saying the Steelers fall into this catagory at all. If you take it that way you miss my point. I'm talking about the Texans here. The Texans aren't trying to win out in preseason. They're going about their business trying to work on their execution (didn't do very well tonight) and evaluate their players. They're looking at things and of course trying to win but the victory is secondary to the work and avoiding injury as much as possible. Patriots fans aren't coming unglued asking for the head of their offensive coordinator over a preseason game because they know it doesn't count and they know the teams coaches know it doesn't count.

Apparently at least one Texans fan does not know how to properly appreciate an NFL preseason game.

I like to see the Texans look good. I like to see them win. I'd rather see them work out the kinks in preseason and lose bad but squeak by someone two months from now than see them win all four of their preseason games but still stink it up in the regular season when everyone else starts trying.
