Grid said:4. If its preseason.. then it IS only preseason. Do you know how many teams play terribly in preseason then go on to make the postseason? alot. Just cause our bad preseason performance carried over into the regular season.. that doesnt mean people were wrong when they said "Its only the preseason"
Grid said:P.S. where does this Faggins hate come from?
He has played very well for us as a nickle and dime back. He was a 7th round pick that has shown that he can contribute to the team. So he had some difficult as a starter at the beggining of the season.. GET OVER IT! He is young.. he is talented.. and even if he never gets any better, he is still a great 3rd and 4th string CB.
He isnt criticized by anyone except me on this board. Everyone calls out buchanon who stepped it up considerably and has more talent than most DB's in the league, but says nothing about a 7th round starter with no potential and little ability. He is beat deep consistently but refuses to play the reciever running the short and intermediate routs. He could at least do one or the other.Grid said:Well if ya have no problem with him at 3rd/4th string.. I dont see any point in having a personal vendetta with him. you can pretty much guarantee that he isnt going to be the #2 CB next season.
It's not his fault he's a starter. He goes out there and does the best he can (which isn't starter material, I agree) and what happens, happens. You should redirect your vendetta to those who not only put him on the field as a starter, but let Wright (and to an extent, McCree) go because of him. This coaching staff felt that, in nickel situations, Coleman at safety and Faggins at nickel (last year) was better than Coleman at nickel and McCree at FS. I still disagree with that decision. They let Wright go because they thought Faggins was a better nickel back. I still disagree with that decision. I have no problem with Faggins. It's not like he's going out there and failing due to lack of effort. He fails due to lack of talent - he was a 7th round pick for a reason. The coaches that continue to put him out there are the ones that deserve a vendetta, in this particular instance.YoungTexanFan said:He isnt criticized by anyone except me on this board.

This is the one I thought of.TEXANS84 said:The only statement that should be banned is:

Add to that, "I know what it takes to win football games." andTEXANS84 said:The only statement that should be banned is:

pre-season is MEANINGLESS, 2004 NFL Champion New England Patriots went 0-4. :brickwallYoungTexanFan said:Most of the teams you are refering to play the back up and reserves to see what they can do. It is also a time for extensive evaluation of the shiny new draft picks. Pre-season for us is nothing compared to sucessful teams, and i contribute that to the coach.
on a side note, i have a serious craving for froot loops.

My Idol (almost) Ibar tried to convey all of this to us last pre-season. Very few here wanted to listen....including me. Ibar for GM.gtexan02 said:1. We don't need any new O-line help, ours just needs time to gel!
2. A rookie OT couldn't come in and learn the schemes fast enough to be a starter
3. There is no need to sign a big name FA. Do you want us to be in cap trouble like the Titans?
4. Its only the preseason!
But will you be here next week if your Jags live up to form and lose to our Texans ? Again.mootini said:One statement I like to hear...Jags win again!!! 6-4 series 2006..CREAM Da BEEF
1) We have too much talent to be playing this bad.TEXANS84 said:The only statement that should be banned is:
I want to hear that if the preseason games ended at half time, we would be 4-0.Double Barrel said:Exactly. Pre-season wins are fool's gold.
That is the oldest line I have ever seen!!! It's at Astros, Rockets and Texans games... give it up for the love of all things holy:brickwallmootini said:#11..."ah, Houston, we have a problem."
Here's one I'd love to hear...Jaguars post season chances ruined in Houston's Cinderella comeback turn-around. Hou has first round post season bye.......... to be continued.mootini said:Ok..this one's better..."it's week 8 and the Texans are now eliminated from the playoffs."

What to sweep up the Hags hair and hair ball you will choke up?mootini said:Cinderella, always SWEPT the floor with a BROOM. That's the Texans Cinderella story..now, back to work!!!
...just a little difference, Pats and Colts are proven winners and will win during the reg season-- Texans are not--easiest place to entrench winning is the pre=season, hoping it carries overDouble Barrel said:Exactly. Pre-season wins are fool's gold.
I was sick of hearing this too!!! When Capers said this, I would say to myself, "When in the hell are you going to start executing!!!!!!"TEXANS84 said:The only statement that should be banned is:

Why? We should have. It doesn't matter though because you won't be seeing those. They'll be replaced with "We should have drafted Reggie Bush" postsKeldar said:another ban.......
"we should have drafted Derrick Johnson!!"
