He actually says we have a shot at the playoffs and Williams over Bush was a good choice.

There was a time when Denver was known as "Dallas North," because Broncos head coach Dan Reeves, a former Cowboy player and coach, brought a lot of Cowboys in. Well, Houston has now become "Denver South."
The Texans are going to be a better team. They have a chance to make the playoffs -- it's a slim chance, but they do have some skill players.

I am a little surprised no one is talking about the leadership voids of the Texans division rivals. More wins should be possible just with the absense of SMcNair, EJames, and JSmith.

I'd be extremely happy to have a winning record this season, much less a shot at the playoffs. While I think we have a lot of potential, I'm still grounded by the fact that we have not addressed all of our pressing needs. It'll take time to build a winning franchise, but there is always the foundation (which is this year for us).

Texan fans deserve better than to have this label cast upon our team. Last year was tough. We are all excited about perhaps having our first winning season and what do they do? If we turn this thing around and start to win some games then we will be refered to as not the Houston Texans that we all want to be proud of, but Denver South. If we continue to lose then Im sure that we will still be refered to as the Houston Texans. Just disrespectful as far as im concerned. But hey, maybe it's just me.tulexan said:Better than Cleveland South or Detroit South.

The much-maligned offensive line has improved simply by the addition of line coach Mike Sherman. Another key was the signing of free-agent center Mike Flanagan from Green Bay.

threetoedpete said:Get a grip. Philly is gonna pound us with the rush. I expect us to have the worst rushing defense after the first game. With or with out Westbrook, there gonna kill us running the ball. Book it. Pray for Philly injuries on the o-line this preseaon.
Their o-line is pile driving people.
Under new head coach Gary Kubiak, they are exuding confidence. And that attitude can't be underestimated.
