Houston Texans! The new Face

If you haven't had the chance to look up the Texans lately, you have to see the uplift they are receiving in the off season. I mean I would have been content with a couple of trades, and a shuffle here and there, but these people are going all out. First the hire Gary Kubiak, and then they land the first draft pick, and then they go out and get Mike Sherman. With Kubiak and Sherman in the offensive coordinator role, and then with the first round pick, the 2006-07 season could be something of a great fireworks display. I can understand the skeptics, you know the people who will always say things like, well your defense sucks, or the offensive line is pretty weak. Hey, I never said anything that negates those things, I completely agree with those assumptions, but what i mean when I say that the next year could be good is that, Texans can actually come across with a better season than this one.

I just hope that they don't make too many mistakes. I think that 2005-2006 season went down the drain because we as fans gave up too early. I mean just being at the game, rooting for the tea m isn't everything. You have to have faith in the team, you have to have enogh conviction in your heart that no matter what, your team will win. The Texans on paper were no worse than, any other team in the league, hell they even had David Carr in the pre season as one of the good fantasy players in the league, what killed them is the lack of enthusiasm, and the lack of conviction of the fans in the team. Many a time people went out there and when the Texans would be down by a little, the whispers would start, and then the whole house of cards would come tumbling down. Too many games I watched as the Texans about ready to win, gave it up and were invisible from the field.

Next year would be different. I hope atleast. With the likes of David Carr, Domnick Davis, Reggie Bush, Andre Johnson, and other WR's I think we would be able to atleast come up second in the souther division. I guess we will have to wait and see about that.
