Did anyone else notice ...?

I remember it was rumored the Cards would probably take Hearst. It even came out that he had either a defect or an pre-existing injury the night before the draft. The Cardinals took him in spite of that. He wasn't effective at all for them. He resurrected his career in Cincinnati before heading to San Fran. If memory serves me right, many of the Bengal's players were upset that they let Hearst go. Still to this day, I don't understand they reasoning behind that decision.

I would like to see us keep DD and get Bush. All good NFL teams have a change of pace back. You need more than one back to carry the work load, with the exception of 2-3 teams. What bad could come from haveing more than one good back, or for that instance more than 1 good backup. Also with the versatility of Bush he could be split out wide and be a factor.

I like that idea having having a game breaker and a hardnosed yard grinder in the backfield makes sense to me

The way I see it is this, that run that Davis had set up a field goal for us because he was caught from behind. Bush would finish that play with a TD.

Guys, this guy has a legend who has never had contact with before vying for him as legit. Gayle Sayers has mentioned that this guy has skills that you just can't coach. He basically is saying this guy will make it in the NFL. We gotta get him and instead of building the offense around Carr, build the offense around him.

U and I must be only only ones who saw that. I like DD but he is not the best back as far as breaking a play for scores but he is the best we have.

The object of this game is to win Super Bowls, not to have the best individual superstar. I don't want Barry Sanders with a decent or less than decent line. I want Emmit Smith and the Cowboys O-line. (OK, so Emmit was a stud too, but I'm sure you get the point.)

Have you forgotten who was head coach and general manager of the Cowboys then. Jimmy Johnson teams beat the hell out of Casserly`s Redskins.

I would say that that proves my point, but the truth is it has no bearing on what I was talking about. I want Casserly gone as much as anybody.

Question: what makes extremely average QBs into Super Bowl winners, while phenomenal QBs like Dan Marino punch out of the league ringless?

Answer: Supporting cast and coaching staff.

Flash and superstardom are well and good, and Marino not winning a ring doesn't take away from what he could (and did) do. But for me, it's quite frankly about the ultimate W. I guess as a fan, you have to ask yourself, would I rather see flashy play, or would I rather wear Houston Texans Super Bowl merchandise? I want whatever is going to make us a championship team, or obviously, what I feel is going to get us that.

Nothing we do this offseason will get us there next year, maybe not even the year or two following that. But building toward that goal, as quickly and as effectively as possible, should be the goal. We have a good nucleus of talent, now we need to build the supporting cast. Drafting for another superstar at the exclusion of building the supporting cast is where we would be going wrong.

we dont have a good nucleus of talent... that is up for debate, we only have 1 guy on the team that would even be close to pro bowl consideration and that is D-Rob...point: we need more talent and not a bunch of "role players"

As I was reading that post Herv.. i was thinking that I was gonna post "People dont whine as much when we are winning games".. but you made that comment at the end of your post.

I personally feel a bit of loyalty towards DD. He has worked his butt off and he is improving every season. he is already good enough to be a starter on MOST NFL teams, and with Wells backing him up I think we have all the talent we need at RB.

Bush is a very promising prospect.. but it is one position that we REALLY dont need anyone else. Even if he becomes another LT (which..btw..is unlikely.. not impossible..but not a sure thing by any stretch).. even if he does.. we really dont NEED an LT on our team.

WOuld it be nice to have LT on our team? yah.. but will it make us win? no.. we need more than a running game.. we already have a running game. We need an Oline.. we need playmakers on defense.. we need a TE.. we may even need a QB.


Anyway.. im rambling and this doesnt really apply to your post Herv :). I agree with ya though.. no matter what, we are gonna be hearing about it later.. and the only way to stop the whining is to win games.. so lets hope that whatever way we go, it improves our team.

:thumbup Its good to know that there are at least a few people left with some sense on this board :thumbup
 
You know, all this becomes moot if we beat the Titans, Cardinals or 49ers and end up with the #3 or #4 pick.
