There are many Texans stats you'd be surprised about. Fact is that Houston teams rarely get top billing and are easily dismissed by the media and otherwise.
Unfortunately, our team is still trying to get out from under Butt Adams grey cloud and Oilers history in this town.
Our Texans are going through a "prove yourself" stage. We are easily dismissed by the media and therefore by the public. Every big milestone we go through is overlooked or taken lightly by the media and public.
That's why very few people know about some of our great stats including:
Texans are one quarter away from tying the record for most quarters played without allowing a scoring TD in NFL and one away from breaking it. Look at our stats history and yet we are not taken seriously. The Jags are a great example. Here are some examples of how our team has been under-rated.
-Dallas Cowgirls - shut out this year! Favored.
-Tennes--see's NOW - SWEEP! Favored.
-Jacksonville - SWEEP! Favored. Yet we shut out (1st time since 95)
-Green Bay - won by 3 at the last minute. Were supposed to kick our butt
-Colts - were allowed the least scoring points this season by the Texans. Were supposed to kick our butt
-Minnesota - OT - We won't go down easy. Were supposed to kick our butt
-Duh' Bears.....ummmm.....Duh' Bears! Were supposed to hold our butt in cold weather.
-Chiefs - stadium is supposed to be the loudest...ummm we're used to it from home. RELIANT! They were supposed to kick our butt
Folks! Our team has beat great teams, yet just BARELY got beat by other great teams. We have put up a fight repeatedly yet have gone un-noticed.
That's ok! You can really kick someone's butt when they least expect it. And just because it doesn't make the papers it doesn't mean people don't notice.
If people are talking SMACK about our team, as they usually do. It means SOMEONE IS NOTICING.
Go Texans! Our day has come! 8/8 let's make a statement. We'll be back in FULL FORCE!
