As AJ gets older he is going to want to start going to the playoffs and looking for that ring. Its only a matter of time that it either happens on this team or he moves on. He is 28 and probably has about 4 to 5 more productive seasons in him. If you don't make the playoffs this season his days are numbered as a Texan IMO.

Good thing he's locked up through the 2014 season.

Yup and a player has never found a way out of a contract in the NFL they are iron clad.

With the way that contract is structured, I don't think he's going anywhere, anytime soon. But feel free to sling more crap at the wall, something's bound to stick, huh?

I agree with you that the secondary has again received the smelly end of the stick but the Texans think that if they can improve the pressure they get with the front seven then they can get away with the secondary they have. I don't think that's totally crazy thinking though I'd feel better if they'd go out and steal somebody's "real-deal" FS. I know they're not easily found but our secondary is more or less leaderless and has been since Aaron Glenn left.

AJ isn't going anywhere. He'll get a trip to the post-season this year and be all smiles.

Getting pressure up front helps a secondary but the front four can be contained. Only way to stop that is to overload which puts your secondary in man. A good QB will eat that apart. Might help you to get an extra win or two but when it comes playoff time and you are playing the elite it the weakness will get exposed.

This thread is not about the Texans secondary. It's about VY and Slug wearing the dead carcass of the former Houston team because the former has a hard time discerning the difference between reality/fantasy and the latter is a fat, greedy bastard.

I skipped through most of these posts. I say only that I followed the Oilers from their inception. Had to thank my dad I guess because he liked the Cowboys. I suffered through many losses, 100+degree San Antonio weather during TC, bad decisions on players, coaches and owner. Watched as head coaches and GM's cycled through. Went through Luv ya Blue, Bum Phillips, run and shoot, Pastorini, Bill Cannon, Tolar, the Tyler Rose and Steve McNair that later was murdered. They were MY Oilers even in powder blue. For what ever reason, Bud took them to another state. Munchak and Matthews became another team. I tried to watch them first year or two because of the players, but that quickly went by the wayside.

Now I have another Houston team. The Titans are just another team to go down before us this year. And that's the name of that tune. Tony Baretta and I are out of here.

And here's a little history lesson for your pathetic, display in futility of a franchise. They've gone 8 seasons and 6 seasons without a playoff birth. A couple of times five seasons. That's a combined 24 years for a team that's only been around 50 (and that doesn't include a couple of years here or there. No wonder Dud Adams and his uneducated fans don't realize that the franchises winning percentage is .495. Or should I say, their losing percentage is .505.

So please, quit acting like the Tinnbreds are anything but a losing, choking POS. Win a Super Bowl before you cast stones. Hell Tampa has won one and their fans are really, pretty classy. *realizes the futility in trying to discuss, class with a fan of "Pud's" team*

well the Titans could look into getting a new stretching coach...

how not to stretch


and with a new stretching coach.. HOW to stretch

AWWWWWWW! My boy Billy!!!!!!!! Sweet memory!!

To bad you don't have a coach that can get you past .500 that might be valuable.

To bad you can't find a coach who can prevent choking.

Seriously you want to compare coaches? If you think your coach is better then Fisher you know absolutly NOTHING about football. If Fisher was was on the open market I would bet money the Texans would be in the running along with 20 other teams.

[Specnatz]

I know the history of the team you supposedly have always followed is not a subject you are very (I should say any) good at but Jeff Fishers record his first few years was not all that great.

1994 Houston Oilers 1 - 5 (Took over mid-season)
1995 Houston Oilers 7 - 9
1996 Houston Oilers 8 - 8
1997 Tennessee Oilers 8 - 8
1998 Tennessee Oilers 8 - 8

So far they are running parallel to one another. One is defensive minded one is offensive minded.

Kubiak:
2006 6-10
2007 8-8
2008 8-8
22-26 after 48 games

Porn 'stache:
1994 1-5
1995 7-9
1996 8-8
1997 5-5

21-27 after 48 games

I'm not saying......... I'm just sayin'

Fisher might be the better coach at this time, but he's been hamstrung by a carcass wearing ass-jockey his entire career.
