Vent thread: Texans

[Alaska Alaska!]

Will Marshawn Lynch,be a free agent next year?

WAAAY out of our pocket range.  But yes, he will be.

That's the standard I want as well, but calling Harbs and Ozzie losers is inappropriate. They missed the mark, yes...but some people are asking for their termination. Do you agree with that claim too?

Record alone is proof they aren't losers. However, neither have been at their best the past two years. Ozzie has missed with regularity lately but I still like his track record. As for Harbaugh, I never know what to think of him. These last two years there have been too many times when the team is just not prepared. Also he has never improved with timeout and in-game management. I would not be upset if a move was made away from Harbaugh. But his first 5 years of success has given him some cache for the last 2 years and who knows how many more years.

Another disappointing year, and we're not even going to get a high pick... sigh. Not saying we're not gonna make the playoffs, cause we still can, but it's not looking good. Never seen a Harbaugh-Flacco team choke so badly in late November-Decemeber.

[808Blackbirds]

Watt is just a beast. Seeing John Simon high low Flacco made me sad. im still happy with this team with all the bad news they took this year. Go Ravens

He reminds me of a Jamal Lewis..

[Militant X 1]

I'm not claiming we should be proud.  I'm claiming that even in rebuilding we have not had a losing season.  A non-losing season has been the lowest point of our franchise since the Harbs era.  It means nothing now, but years down the line, when Harb's era is done (and only if we manage to be perennial playoff contenders afterwards) we will look back on that with some form of dignity. 

 

Gotcha!  Good point!

We're 9-6.  Possibly ending with a 10 and 6 record.  Harbs needs to do better, but we're no where at that point where we need to consider moving on from Harbs.

[thisme007]

He's gonna want big money. No thanks. We know what happened the last time we gave big money to an RB.

I know right.

It's like the killer instinct is gone. It's so sad.

It's like the karma chickens are coming to roost for our handling of the Rice mess. Perhaps it was just never meant to be this season.

You can't toast to this game.  This is a brown bag situation. 

 

Trying to stay positive it's hard though lol. Had you said it's a Browns bag situation that would have helped me some.

[thisme007]

We lost that game because the Texans knew our offense playbook.

Define regularity...

[redrum52]

People keep complaining about Ozzie the since the SB.  Have you asked yourself that the 13 draft just maybe wasn't that good?

[PerpetuallyBored74]

They already blew it again today by losing. All they had to do was win their last 3 games against mediocre competition, but that was obviously too much for them.

 

The Texans D, running game and receiving corps with Foster are not mediocre.

QB is where they are weak.

We got thoroughly outcoached by them too.

[Militant X 1]

It's like the killer instinct is gone. It's so sad.

 

 

I feel like this to.

[FerrariFan87]

Yup, great point... it didn't help that Kubiak and the offense were just clueless all day as well.

The Texans is not better than the Ravens..

[PerpetuallyBored74]

Our receivers can't execute the short game.

A huge problem when the pass protection can't compensate.

[thisme007]

I think we would do good in the playoffs..

[NSWraven]

Only caught the last 5 mins of the game. What was happening with the OL? Noticed Hurst at LT and Yanda I think at RT. Injuries for our tackles or just bad play?

[4everraven]

Define regularity...

As many misses as hits in the first 3 rounds.

[I AM LEGEND]

I think we would do good in the playoffs..

U mean against....REAL QBs???

Not a chance.

[ratedr]

I think we would do good in the playoffs..

Even with the good defensive effort, this is the second week in a row where we would've been torched if the team had a decent QB. We won't be able to hold good QBs under 30. And if the offense can't score...it's over.

[redrum52]

And people say they haven't seen this team play this bad when it mattered... um... What about last year?

[4everraven]

The Texans is not better than the Ravens..

The final score indicates otherwise!

Don't forget this team, in all 3 phases, continues to draw flags for the same stupid stuff game in and game out, year in and year out.

[I AM LEGEND]

The Texans is not better than the Ravens..

They were with a 3rd string QB and physically whipped on us. This wasn't a fluke victory. They're better.

[HoldingCall]

Even Skip Bayliss, arguably the biggest hater of the Ravens, chose BAL to win the division. 

I heard the same, clearly he was wrong. At some point in the season it appeared to be the case but the Ravens have not gotten better as the season matured.

The Jets beat the Steelers.  Are the Jets better than them?

I feel we would be dangerous in the playoffs..
