What if Reeves tells McNair that Dom or Charley . . .

No, we don't expect them tomorrow either. Championships are the reason they play the game....they don't play just to play, and we don't root for ties or losses.

They are playing just to play now, and some people are rooting for losses, no ties, right now...

If you are rooting for the Texans opponents to win, then you simply aren't a fan of the Texans.
 
How can you say that? How can you define what a fan is? I am one who hopes the Texans lose out, for a better future...heck they aren't playing for anything right now... why would i want them to win..San Fran, Green Bay, and the Jets want them to win...Are they real fans of the Texans?

And your definition of what makes a "fan of the Texans" isn't the standard for what makes a Texans fan so your opinion on this matter is duly noted, thanks for playing and we hope you enjoy the Home Edition of "Texans Message Board - The Game".

. . . are NOT the problem with this football team. What if he tells McNair that the problem with team lies mainly with the players?

Would you accept his analysis? He very well could do that, you know?

Forgive me if someone else already mentioned this obvious point because I didn't read every reply.

First off, how can you seperate the players from the GM?? Of course the problem is with the players. The GM is not on the field of play on Sundays. However he is responsible for who is. If the problem is with the players on the team then we have a problem with the GM.

Can you picture Dan Reeves saying "Bob, I think you have one heck of a GM, however all the players he has put together on this team really s u c k."?

McNair's appropriate reply would be "Huh?"

lol:

You're right. You can't separate the players from the GM. Unless they are playing under their talent level. If that occurs, then you can't separate the players from the coach. Casserly and Capers can't both escape blame.

Don't you think that's a little much to expect for a team that has only been in existence for four years?

I think you missed my point, slightly. The poster I was quoting stated that Reeves and Capers were cut from the same cloth, except for their records. While it might be a slight exaggeration (to make a point) I was just sort of saying that's analogous to saying I am just like David Carr - except he can play football.

Cincinnati Bengals - first season 1968 (AFL) - playoffs 1970 (first year in NFL)

Tampa Bay Buccaneers - first season 1976 - playoffs 1979

Carolina Panthers - first season 1995 - playoffs 1996

Jacksonville Jaguars - first season 1995 - playoffs 1996

Cleveland Browns - first season 1999 - playoffs 2003

So there you go, five expansion teams that went to the postseason within four years of their existence in the past 35+ years. The only team that did not was the Seattle Seahawks (first season 1976 - playoffs 1983), and of course, our Houston Texans.

Chew on that for awhile. :)
