The first pick is a waste anyway. Trade it for three or four others and get real players and not primadonnas. That's the real problem. You draft a guy number one, he get's automatic money and busts. Give me three lower first rounds and I'll show you a hell of an offensive or defensive line.

IMO, Bill Callahan had more to do with this^^^^^^^

You make the playoffs it's a big deal coaches get fired and raises off making or not making the playoffs. As A Texans fan having to hear the cowboys fan brag about how they will be in the Superbowl and we'll be sitting at home (7-9)To have them go 4-12 and sitting at home watching us give me pleasure. Y'ALL MADE THAT BED.

What a great job of coaching this team. Defense a huge reason for the turnaround, but a lot of kudos have to go to O'Brien for keeping this team together after the rough start.
i think I read, 1st team ever to make playoffs with 5 different QB's 
They definitely coached em up
Great job Texans

I agree with the Switzer comment. Same can be said for Gruden at TB and Seifert at SF. Actually not their fault, just the way it is. Wade has always been a top nothch DC and an ok HC......kinda like Norv Turner as OC instead of HC. It takes a really special person to be HC and Dallas does not have that guy right now. Cowboys are always condemned for falling from grace but what about SF, Buffalo, etc. Lots of teams not living up to their past. Cant all be blamed on Jerry. He brings in talented enough people, they need to be coached up. Free agency has always hurt and when you do win, the team gets raped of it's coaching staffs. The one team that has done best in the free agency era is probably NE. They field a winner every year around one freakin player. If you try to draft your way to a talented team, the cap will get you. I bet we are still paying the triplets.
I really don't have the answers. A team needs chemistry and losing Murray destroyed our offensive glue. Our 7 game losing streak we lead four games at the half, the other two went to OT. The one we should have lost and did, was NE. Gotta win the close games. Defense getting a stop at crunch time has been our Achilles heel. Jerry is everyone's scapegoat but he cant shoulder all the blame. Kellen Moore was on the practice squad before we got Cassell. Why is he there if you ain't gonna use him? Not Jerry's call.
I am actually looking forward to the last two games. Moore may make some rookie mistakes and that is expected. I look at the overall picture and potential....mainly presence in the pocket. Cass ll looks like a deer in the headlights.
Man, I could go on forever it seems. Too many intangibles. 
Weeden actually did good against the Colts. At least I thought he did.

I wonder what he got for the special teams coach that he shoved on the sideline?
maybe a new clipboard? Lol

you got the initials right, but blew it when you typed Jerry......should of typed Jimmy and it would be more believable

LOL, BG is definitely the biggest Texan hater here.....
Understandable though when reality hits and he realizes his team and the team he hates is headed in different directions

can't wait to see what the Texans coaching staff can do with this guy.
i hope it works out for him and the team

I think the North Texas GM passed up the South Texas GM on the incompetent list.

please make this happen 
i have never heard of a four ring circus, but jerry might need to add on to his sideshow emporium 

can't believe the 'Boys cut him, surely Jerrah would consider him a leader on the team by now

You don't want to know how many starters Ned returns next year if you are an NDN.  We've returned half as many and owned yout for half a decade.  But if you are counting, it's about 13 total starters, and that's not counting the sophomore from Miss. Who turned it on as a pass catcher and rb during the playoffs... cheers

Smithson Valley game was all I could think about last night after seeing GRHS trot their offense and defense out there. Their lines were monsters.
Congrats to the Bulldogs and good luck GRHS.

He will have 15 years of free footlongs.

I agree and it's a shame
 

BEAUTIFUL the center to right tackle all return next year

I agree.  Props to them.  The 'Big Nasties' should get a lot more limelight than they do.  Not just Nederland's, but other teams that do an apparent great job week in and week out busting their arse...

These five boys have worked their backside off this season to protect LeBaron and make holes for Krautz. I want to tell them Job Well Done guys. The QB's , receivers, backs are gonna get the accolades, you know that. Those accolades are a statement of the job you do and have done. Keep doing what you have been doing...... Very proud of all of you ! 

Congrats Big Ned, total domination for a few years. If you can't respect that, I don't trust you.
It's a different ball game when you're the Hunted, every Team gives maximum effort to beat you. It took a few yrs & a lot of trying from a lot of schools. Good luck on the playoffs

Mack, you might as well be trying to speak logically to a box of rocks

But y'all were 32 point favorites.... Bitter, party of 1. Your table is ready.

You got it ghost, I am jealous of pa. Tons of talent and no rings. Trying to pick a fight with a school in smaller classification because you are not good enough to compete in the class your in. Nederland does not have any rings with Neumann but do you see the people from Nederland getting on here calling out bridge city, orangefield and other smaller schools. Didn't think so. You can say what you want but quit bitchin and play your schedule. Nederland isn't on it and that is all there is to it

I see Beetlejuice 14 is still on here thinking he is every Team's Coach; knowing what every Coach is thinking or doing. You can go undefeated in pre-season, but means nothing if you don't make the playoffs. Crosby has very good athletes & Coaches, we are aware of that. You Sir getting on here as if Crosby is the measuring stick of perfection is ridiculous. At the end of the day, it's all about winning a State Title right?? Well how many has Crosby won lately. That's not a knock on Crosby, but on you. I'm sure those kids set out to do just that, but guys like you Taint the Valiant effort by placing your assessment of Success. I come from a program of " Title Town" and I thought that was how it is & should be. I found out later as a "grown man" those sentiments are so wrong. So many equations factor into winning a Title, not to mention making it a Tradition. If a Coach takes a lesser talented group & wins more games than "he" or other gurus expected, & raised the expectations of his Team, he has done his job. More importantly he has taught his players to overcome odds, built character & developed young men. Since you like " Winners" so much, why don't you look up Port Arthur Lincoln Basketball. Some of the best winners in any sport in this area ever. It does nothing for me today, just a nice conversation piece & something to throw back in the face of Arrogant guys like you. Do me a favor and take your ball & go home "lil Johnny" . It's ok to lose sometimes, but we Live to fight another day.

Wow!!! That was pretty good. Not one to Toot my own Horn, but I should have my own column Lol

So the idea behind high school football is to get a handfull of athletes to the next level, that's it, the hell with TEAM WORK. It's the ME FIRST mentality that keeps alot of these schools from having a good program that helps ALL the kids develope into responsible adults. This whole conversation is "BS", 99% of these kids won't play college football, but you think the program should be there to help the 1% that might have the tools to make it playing college football, the school doesn't owe you anything, you play because you want to.
