i know its probably a little early. the way the 2 games have played out i think its time to think of a cool nickname.....any ideas?
 
Probably a little early to get too hyped, but the D is certainly looking like a force, especially the front 7.

How about "Death Row" for the DL?
 
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO NAME THE DEFENSE

I repeat,

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO NAME THE DEFENSE

The defense will aquire a name when the time is right. It will come from "nowhere" and it will fit them perfectly. Nobody will remember who coined the phrase once it's been established and several people will claim to have invented it. All of them will be asshats and none of them will be the person who really invented it.

Ignore this advice at your peril. The football gods are not kind of those who attempt to name a defense prematurely.

It's posts on messageboards that get the word out though. Not to mention it's just some people having fun after a big win.

I agree, so is Gulf Coast Offense still in the running :splits:
 
I don't know about a name for the d. I do know that I liked how the Texans are starting to "shhhhhhhh" the critics!

Yeah, how did the Steel Curtain, and Doomsday Defense ever come about without internet message boards..? :gun:

Word of mouth which is basically the same thing, message boards and blogs just make it quicker now. McClain must have read this thread cause he started a blog about it and talked about it on 610 this morning so I guess we're not THAT crazy for talking about it.

I still have a "House of Pain" shirt. :texflag:
 
Names usually come from the media. But screw the writers this time around, the fans should have a voice!! :texflag:

there's a psychobilly band called the Meteors who have a song called "wreckin crew" ......dont think they'd play it at Reliant though as I think there's a bit of profanity in it.......here's the lyrics:

Well, it's night time in the city, Let's all go out to play.
Their ain't no-one can catch us, Couldn't stop us anyway.
We do just what we wanna do, Get outta the way,
we're the Wrecking Crew.
The city as you know it's gone, We're all that's left alive.
We prowl around the streets in packs, Do what we can to survive.
We're gonna do just what we wanna do,Get outta the way,
we're the Wrecking Crew.
We're the Wrecking Crew,We do what we must do.
You've blown away our lives,
Killed our lovers and our wives.
If you don't like our attitude,Pal, you're out of luck.
We're the Mutant Wrecking Crew,And we don't give a *******
We'll do just what we wanna do, Get outta the way,
we're the Wrecking Crew.
We're the Wrecking Crew, We do what we must do.
You've blown away our lives,
Killed our lovers and our wives.
Why don't you come and join us,If you think you've got the guts.
We'll all go out and have a real good time,
When all the shops are shut. We're gonna do just what we wanna do,
Get outta the way, we're the Wrecking Crew.

It belongs to someone else. Let's not pull a Seattle and get sued.

Yeah, aggies are in court for lawsuits just as much as longhorns are for criminal activity (and not one conviction).

sorry for bringing college football into this...

how bout... the houston texans' defense?
 
Guys,

You have to wait for Stuart Scott to give it to us.

There will be a BOO-YAH and then the name will magically appear.
 
"The #1 picks that busted at first but are coming around" :cool:

How bout "Stampede" or "Red Bull" and then they could get a sponsorship
 
How about "The NFLs' best kept secret" j/k If we are going to try to come up with a name, in one of the sit down Q/A's they said it would have to do with being physical. Can't remember if it was Demeco or Mario who said it
 
I was about to mention that we need a rally song. Somethin that will pump the guys up.

A quick history lesson Steelers were dubbed the Steel Curtain. The next year teams ran all over them. I think its a jinx.

Not to pee in people's corn flakes, but this is about the 20th time this thread has been made, and the 20th time the same "bull" names have been suggested.

I stand by you can't create a nickname on the message boards. If one is bound to happen, it'll just, well, happen.

$.02

Was going to say the same thing, I've seen this thread before. Nobody knows how these nicknames happen, much as nobody knows why the sun sets at night.

It just does.
