Re: AFC South
Week one against the Texans was enough to convince me.
I didn't think Bouye was worth the money it would have taken to keep him, but he sure was missed in that secondary this year.

We watched the tragedy unfold. We did as we were told, we bought and sold. It was the greatest show on Earth...but then it was over.

Cowboys vs. Texans this week. Can't help but think this game will be a blunder bowl between the two coaches.

Well CJ it was good watching you while you were good. Looks like that Houston street life has got ahold of you.

Houston made all their big moves in free agency.

I really think we see the Texans come back to Earth a little bit this year. They have a 1st place schedule and won’t be sneaking up on anyone.

But they have more than enough weapons to win that division if they all stay healthy.

Re: AFC South
I mean, it is their turn to get out to a huge lead in the division and then choke it away. We did it last year, Titans did it the year before, now it's Houston's turn.

Re: AFC South
Naaaaaaah...the Texans will get into the postseason and jump out on KC or someone of equal caliber(I won't mention the Bills for reasons) and then crap it all away and get blown out in the 2nd half(kinda like against the Bills in '93 which I won't mention for reasons).
This is the way.

Re: AFC South
First time in quite awhile Houston fans are super excited about their team this year. And they should. I'm already looking forward to both the Jaguar and Texans games this upcoming season. Can't wait for the banter between Dot and RaoulDuke. I'd even pay money just to sit back and watch.

I'm just glad we have a decent QB for once and not some massage enthusiast or a swishy-hair-wannabe-male-model or something.

Just out of curiosity, how come Houston didn't retain the Oiler name (like the Browns did when they left) when they headed to Tennessee? Is there a story behind that? Just seemed so wrong when the Titans wore those Oiler throwbacks when they played you guys. Now you guys are called the Texans. But the original Texans now play in Kansas City. Go back to being the Oilers. Seems right.

Re: AFC South
Houston doesn't own the trademark, the ownership that created it does.
It is well established that there is a direct chain of custody from Oilers to Titans. This is not a situation akin to the original Cleveland Browns moving to Baltimore, becoming the Ravens and completely relinquishing the identity, while another franchise picked it up.
The Oilers/Titans ownership group never abandoned the Oilers trademark. USPTO filings dating back to the 1970s show that Houston Oilers, Inc., who have offices in both Houston and Tennessee, have kept their trademarks active.
There have been previous attempts by Texans ownership to lay claim to the Oiler name. Before settling on the Texans as a name, the ownership group in Houston petitioned to become the Oilers. However, it belonged to the owners, the Adams family, and it remained in their hands. The mark was never abandoned because it remains a business commodity for merchandising and other purposes. More importantly, they are owned by the people who created the mark, not by the city who did not try hard enough to keep the team around. The US Trademark system does not simply transfer ownership of marks because some feelings are hurt.
We watched the tragedy unfold. We did as we were told, we bought and sold. It was the greatest show on Earth...but then it was over.
