Speaking of which....

Ever hear that old saying, "There's nothing in Texas but Steers & Queers?"

I heard, I'm only telling you what I heard now.....

The Steers call themselves Texans.







& the Queers..... let's just say they wear silver pants.




I'm just sayin'

A lot of posters are saying we are bound for playoffs & maybe not as cautious as you.

What blows my mind about Cowher is 108–1–1. This is his record in games in which they built a lead of at least eleven points.

Yeah, I get that he inherited a better team than Kubiak (although Cowher did inherit a losing team, 7-9, and went 11-5 with them. The first of six playoff appearances in a row, making him only one of two coaches to lead his team to the playoffs in each of his first six seasons as head coach in NFL history).

But no way can anyone ever convince me that Kubiak would have been 108–1–1 with that same Steelers team.

Agreed about the foolishness of such comparisons. It's comparing a Fiat to a Ferrari at this point.

Your team has done very well in the Off season, no doubt. But you didn't win the offseason. Thus far the Iggles are winning it.

yeah, they stole DRC and a 2nd rd pick from AZ for a backup QB and then won the Nnamdi sweepstakes over Rex Ryan and Jerruh Jones (if Jerruh was actually ever in it). They'll probably unload Asante Samuel for a 2nd day pick... The Walrus is Dealin'

Thought I'd bump this thread. I enjoyed reading some of the slams I got. Still long ways to go; well not really. 4 games and we should sweep.

IMO, he certainly should be in the running. I doubt he would get it. The Harbaugh at the 49ers will likely be the one.

I hope that changes this year with a competent d coordinator on board.

The one constant has been that he has put his players in a position to win games / make critical plays ..... those players havent done that until this season.

Sometimes the breaks go your way ..... sometimes they dont. Two games that stand out to me from last season are Jax and Baltimore. Jax needed a miracle on the final play ..... and had JJ caught a damn ball that hit him in the hands in the endzone in Baltimore that game never goes to OT. Those plays were left on the field last season ..... those same plays are going the Texans way this season.

And he did it in a span of 15 years. Kubiak managed to equal him in 5.

Cower didnt take over a 2-14 team either .....

Would not injuries play into that? Don't really keep up with SF but doubt they had same issues.

While I understand the desires of Texans fans to crown our head coach, it is premature at this point simply because this season has not played out.

We are assuming that the Texans clinch the AFC South and make the playoffs, but it has not happened, yet. All that is certain right now is that the Texans have matched their best win total.

Let's give it a few weeks and then revisit this discussion. Kubiak might be the clear favorite when this team goes 13-3 and is the top seed in the AFC.

I agree completely. When does the award get handed out?



I'm really all about balance. Sometimes I'll take one side of an argument, sometimes the other. Usually I'm on the homer side. So I can understand how some people will misconstrue what I am saying.

So to be clear.


I don't think Kubiak deserves COY.

yeah, I do the same thing on topics that I do not have 100% conviction. Sometimes it's just fun to discuss things from all angles.

Do you think he should get CotY if we go 13-3 and have top seed in the playoffs?

I think it all depends on what Harbaugh does in San Francisco. If they finish with only 2 or 3 losses then he'll definitely get it since it's his first season. Kubiak definitely deserves to be in the discussion though.
