Texans overrated???

Not sure if it's been mentioned yet, but anyone notice how the team that's widely regarded as the NFL's best, has had one hell of an easy damn schedule so far?

Week 1: Miami (1-3)
Week 2: Jacksonville (1-3)
Week 3: Denver (2-2)
Week 4: Tennessee (1-3)

We're talking the bottom of the barrel here (insert joke about the Jets being at the bottom too) except for Denver, which is a team still trying to figure it out.

Obviously we have our issues, but this game is in no way a guaranteed loss. Especially if Houston believes the hype being said about 'em while the Jets come out with something to prove after last week.

Sure, the odds are with Houston this week, but I'm looking forward to cheering on our team Monday night as they upset the "experts".

The soft schedule would be relevant if they were squeaking by. The mark of a great team is the ability to dominate weak opponents. They aren't like the Bengals or the Vikings. The Texans lead the league in point differential, +70 through 4 games. They're really good.

In 2009 when Rex took over this team...... the Texans and cardinals were a joke. NOW look.

The Texans were better than the JETS with a 3rd string QB last year.

They lose their best D player to Buffalo and dont miss a stride.

Talent, drafting, player development. They do, we do not.

If you think they are over rated, where do you see them in the AFC?

FIXED!


Wait for Baldacci's NEW BOOK, The Kool AID Club. Oliver Stones assignment is to infiltrate the JETS front office to find any signs of intelligence.

Too early to tell, especially considering their schedule so far. So can't really judge where they are in the AFC now.

Though I think I know where they'll be Tuesday morning... 4-1

If you think they're overrated now, just wait until after they hang a double nickel up on us on national television on Monday night. Then they'll be REALLY overrated.

Perhaps they can have their back up QB run the wildcat on us like SF and jamm it up Rex's superb D.
