I was talking with a friend about my impending move to the Houston area and he insinuated I would waver loyalty from the Ravens to the Texans and be wearing battle red this time next year. I laughed and said it isn’t likely, Houston is cursed. Although if I had to pick a team that wasn’t the Ravens, It would be the Texans.
Then I thought about it and you fans must be the most loyal, next to only Cleveland. In the last year or so the Texans have:
Traded Hopkins for nothing
Fired BoB and got hope only to have it dashed by David Culley.
Locked up your franchise guy only to have him balk a year later.
retained Easterby
Lost a legend in JJ, after he let the world know guys in the locker room were half-assing it.
Mortgaged your draft for Tunsil which hurts worse considering you guys would be primed to draft Sewell this year.
That all said, I was wondering what the fan vibe is for the future? Is this the Houston “Reset”? New England did it last year, shelling bad contracts, playing young guys for the experience, getting themselves in a responsible position for the draft, and creating a new identity and signing people in a deflated cap year making next years and the year after a salary cap manageable buy front loading. Baltimore did it 4 years ago. Is this what is going on in Houston.
Also I wont comment on the Watson situation as it seems fishy, so pragmatism is in order to wait until it fleshes itself out.
either way I’m wishing y’all luck.
