Who on this forum has seriously predicted 9 or more wins.
I have no idea, I don't keep up with that stuff. Maybe we need a poll!
The weatherman tends to get things wrong a lot as well DB. That massive hurricane just might miss the Texans. Wait and see approach is the best way imo to go about this. We're not the Dolphins, Jets, Jaguars or Browns. Those franchises have been destroyed by those type of hurricanes. Now the Browns and Dolphins have escaped those type of hurricanes so far. We've been hit a few times but we've been able to bounce back. Wouldn't you agree?
They might not be able to tell you exactly where it'll land, but they can dern sure tell you if it's in the Gulf of Mexico or Atlantic Ocean.
And that's all I'm saying. The overwhelming majority of the data points to a losing season, regardless if it's 16 losses or 13 (or whatever) in 2021.
I personally don't see that as pessimistic or doom & gloom. It's just setting my expectations as a Texans fan.
What happens in 2022 is a different subject altogether, just like the 2022 hurricane season.
It boils down to not being overly pessimistic. In no way do I see a long dark tunnel that seems to have no end in sight. I do not liken our situation to a hurricane headed our way. We will struggle this season and I never said otherwise. I simply don't think that Nick Caserio has done so poorly that there is no hope for our team for a long time to come. Outside of setting us up for a culture change I do not think Nick Caserio has done a lot to turn things around, but that does not concern me this season. There will be plenty of time to judge Nick Caserio on how things look going forward. To me this is an automatic throw away season. There really is nothing much to lose. Nick Caserio has not done much to improve us but I do not think he has made things all that worse than what we already were dealing with! We are at rock bottom and outside of staying there we have nowhere to go but up. I see us having a slightly better season than many expect but far from making the playoffs. We could still do better than last season. That is not saying much but to do so is a step in the right direction in my opinion.
I don't have a hard opinion about Caserio. It's way too soon to tell, especially since he's been operating with one hand behind his back in 2021.
We really won't know his results for years to come.
That's not optimism or pessimism. It's just being realistic.
I watch Sportsmap all the time, but they are most likely a bit too cynical and pragmatic for a lot of fans. Which is why The Blitz is my favorite local show. lol
Too bad we are about to lose AJ, tho'.
I don't know AJ Hoffman. But, John Granato has been a fixture on Houston sports radio for decades. He's forgotten more about Houston sports than most people will ever know. And rather than question their credentials, why not dispute what they actually say? I don't get the whining and moaning of every criticism of the new Texans management. Shouldn't they prove something before giving them the complete benefit of the doubt?
Cal McNair is way beyond any benefit of the doubt for me. I'm firmly in the "prove you're not a complete idiot owner" perspective at this point.
It's like collective amnesia by a lot of Texans fans with regards to what an utter joke he's been since Bob's passing.
The only 'saving grace' for the Texans right now is that Nick Caserio
might end up being a solid GM. And that's it. Otherwise, Cal is the Bizarroworld King Midas, turning everything he touches to poop. I can only hope that Caserio is somehow immune to it.
. Concerning the Texans there are more informed people on this message board.
