this made me lol

we all know the horns went to the championship because of their AWESOME offense...it produced NASTY points against the top tier defenses...nebraska and oklahoma....oh wait no....they went to the nc on run defense and a strong secondary...and lost, colts sweet completion rate with short ***** and half *** long ball percentage didn't help

Crayton and Hurd asked to be traded !! Wow! If we dont address the OT and S position Jerry said he is looking for trades after the draft when experienced players are usually released to free agency. We will see what happens!

I am soooo sick of hearing about how we need an OT. Free is better than anyone we could have drafted. I have faith in Free. All we need is depth.

I agree free is good. But we do need depth in that position. Free is not a complete pro yet. We saw what happened with the vikings. Don't get me wrong, I like him alot and think he will be our starter there but he has work to do. He has experience now and time before the season starts to get there though so we will see. We still need depth!!

Texans fans have hated the Cowboys long before the Texans were around.
I don't think its the fact that the Cowboys have been around forvever that makes Texans fans dislike the Cowboys, I think its the cocky Cowboys fans (not all of them) that talk about every year being their year (even though they hadn't won a playoff game in 13 years till this season), and bragging on the five rings, and generally regarding the Texans as a joke.

As far as the team itself, Jerry Jones is a complete D-bag (even cowboy fans don't like Jerry Jones). Romo has plenty of tools at his disposal, and yet can't the job done, yet he is praised as the next Aikman. And the constant drama surrounding the team combined with the above mentioned fans makes them easy to not like.

Nobody can take away the five rings, and while I seriously don't like the team, I admit thier complete dominance in the 90's, but that was quite some time now. I think if the fans got a bit more humble, and there weren't constant issues out of the team, they would be far easier to like.


Now as far as the draft goes, I'm pleased with the Texans selections, I feel they are addressing problem areas and/or potential problem areas, but only time will tell.

In my opinion Free did a pretty good job under the circumstances. He was playing right tackle all season and did a great job. Then in the Vikings game, he has to switch to left tackle which he had not played all season and go up against the best bull rusher in the league. It would be hard to expect him to do any better than he did against Allen.

Here is the Cowboys 4th round pick http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FWyHc...eature=related

8 interceptions, and 5 returns for touchdowns in 2009. He ran a 4.31 at his Pro Day. I like the pick a lot. I am wondering if the Cowboys will use him at S.

Yep agree thats what i was talking about. Its a hard transition to LT .. those are where the majority of the best rushers in the league line up. Thats where he has to get better to fill that role. And I do like our pick of Ansah. I am not sure if he will come in and take ball or hamlin or watkins job but he will compete.

Between the Texans and Cowboys its all talk and we know it. Its not like were going to get in a bar fight while watching the game so no one needs to get there feelings hurt ( just throwing that out there ) But I am one of those sport fans who root there team to the championship every year and I bet there are alot of houston fans who do that too "this is our year this is our year" lol. Yes .. the COWBOYS are going to be the first team to host a superbowl in there own stadium !!! WOOT

Have they signed another QB? They rid themselves of Quinn and Anderson, and signed Seneca wallace. That can't possibly be their planned starter. Colt might get thrown to the wolves.

Shipley to Cinci....hmmmm Palmer must be happy as **** right about now with the receivers he has to throw to now...Ocho, Gresham, and Shipley...Guess I will be watching more Cinci games this year...

on a side note...Colt went a little late IMO. and it might take a few years for Cleveland to get the players they need...But Colt is a good Start to a overhaul...
