LMAO "The Texans are a bunch of wusses, because Schaub got hurt and the Texans didn't take out Haynesworth". How in the heck did you make that connection? Give me a break...there's reaching and then there's THAT. The Texans aren't "wusses". Have you even read what other teams have to say about us after they play us or when they're game planning for us. Now they use words like tough, physical, and yes...even "dirty". Any fan who actually thinks this team hasn't "stood up for themselves" simply is a fan who hasn't watched much of Texans football. I guess the Texans weren't standing up to the Titans when we had a bench clearing scuffle either huh? Or when Eric Winston got in KVB's face and threatened to kick his ass. Or when our maniac LBer is getting in people's faces and even head butting them with his helmet off....nope he wasn't backing down. Or when Duane Brown is punching players on the sideline.Also to criticize Andre Johnson for "taking a lot of crap" before he acted is completely stupid. It's not his fault that Innegan is a punk loser and Andre is a superstar in this league and is our franchise player...guess what. He's above thuggery and punk play and he did the RIGHT THING. He brought it to the refs attention and then when they didn't act he finally took things into his own hands. "Taking someone out" doesn't have crap to do with "toughness" or whether or not your team is full of "wusses". Toughness is beating people up with clean play, like the Ravens and what the Steelers do...and now what we do. We play at the line and sometimes lean over it, but the good teams who have "real toughness" and not manufactured toughness can beat people up while maintaining some composure and respect for the other team. We have the #1 defense in the league and a bruising backfield that punishes people. That's pretty damn TOUGH if you ask me and people need to get off the "Texans are soft" B.S... This isn't the Texans of years past. While we may not start the fight, we sure as hell will finish it. If you want a team filled with Aholes, cheap shot artists, and thugs then go root for the Titans. However I like the fact that my team is ABOVE that and just because they are ABOVE that, it doesn't mean I'm rooting for a team full of "wusses". Last edited by Carr Bombed; 11-25-2011 at 11:56 AM. |

Thanks for the rep...What a difference 10 games and a new defensive coordinator can make, 'eh? I never thought the team was physically soft. There problem was lack of a mental fortitude to impose their will on other teams, especially when it mattered the most to win games. This season is a new dawn for this franchise. Even the most cynical of fans *cough*ME!*cough* must concede that we cannot hold the past against them.

So, Haynesworth is Matt Schaub kyrptonite? I think he personally hates the guy.
Hope Suh doesn't turn into this psychopath |

Anyways, I think many of us have had the "Show me" mindset leading into this season. The new d-coord, the 34 defense, a couple of FA acquistions, a fairly good draft heavy on defense, and a one-two punch with our 2 RBs...yeah, it sure changes things form "soft" to "firm" pretty fast, eh?

Look at Fat Albert's career since leaving the Tinnbreds!!! Yes, he got Schaub one more time, but.... His career fell off the map as well...

Does anyone else remember his knee injury at Reliant in 2008? He was at the bottom of a pile too. I'm sure that was a total accident considering his history of cheap shots back then.
Back then, I would have agreed were soft. Not now.

He will be out of the league next year. The guy is such a cancer for any team. So much talent/fat is wasted on an IQ equivalent to a elementary dropout. In five years we will be watching a documentary on how he had it all and is now living on his boat.

I don't wish injury to anyone and does not mean I am soft either. I am all for defending yourself if you have to. The facts are simple the team should worry about winning games and not have to pay any fines and or get suspended. Why stoop down to the same level by hoping and praying for an injury? That is just pointless and worthless the bottom is and should be about winning games.
