Do you think Houston Texans made the biggest mistake of all time in NFL history?

No there is no way of telling for sure. The Texans need help in other areas. I though they would have trade down and try to pick an o-line men. to pick a back up with the first pick would be stupid for a team that never one more then seven or eight games. comparing Williams and Bush success in the NFL would be hard...it's not as plain as day as Manning or Leaf comparison. I really think the Saints made the mistake...unless Deuce is going to get the Ricky Williams treatment.

If the Texans dont keep Reggie Bush and improve that team they are doomed.\n\nReggie Bush all the way.

They are on the right track, but the re-building is going to take a little time.  The whole defense needs re-built.\n\nFor more on the Texans and the NFL.  http://factipedia.com/sportsblogs/

I think these two guys have dug themselves deep enough in their graves that they pretty much have ruined it for themselves.  If I were a head coach, I definitely would not sign Maurice Clarett.  He had his chance to prove himself in the NFL and blew it.  According to the coach, he did not display and team spirit or unity and instead of trying to do what he needed to do to get back in the NFL he goes and robs somebody (and just gets a cell phone!).  He should where a shirt that says I went to the NFL and all I got is this stolen Cell Phone...lol.  Marcus Vick is a live wire or a loose cannon.  Whould I feel comfortable with signing a QB who waves a gun in people faces...NO!  Or a QB who is such a poor sport that he tries to injure another player...NO!  Just as he stomped on that players leg he stomped his career right in the ground.  He will never live up to the Michael Vick hype!

I agree, but even though Houston has no OL Reggie Bush would still put together a 1000 rushing yard and 500 recieving yard season. The Texans are using the excuse that because their in a divison with the Colts they need to stop the Colts, not out score them. One player, exspecially, Mario Williams, can't stop a whole team.

Dilfer is absolutely horrible. He just happen to be lucky that he had one of the best defenses in NFL history. And wasn't Bart Starr Super Bowl MVP twice? lol

I've felt the exact same thing for about a year now.\n\nThe problem with the NFL now versus 20 years ago is that offensive systems have become so complex that only a few quarterbacks can learn them, and even they must have plays called from the sidelines.  (The last NFL quarterback to call his own plays - for the whole game - was Jim Kelly.  Nobody else has since the early 1980s.)  \n\nOf course, quarterbacks no longer calling their own plays is an *absolutely* *unrelated* to the 40 second play clock instituted during that decade.... (Yeah, right!)\n\nHaving quarterbacks who alternate based on the series and situation is a good idea.  There are many benefits to it:\n\n1) Injuries.  When 50-80% of players use steroids and HGH, having two game-ready quarterbacks is a good thing.  In the last decade, nearly half the NFL's starting quarterbacks in any given year missed games due to injury.  That never happened in the 1960s, 1970s, or even the 1980s.\n\n2) Less to learn.  Quarterbacks who have lots of talent but not the ability to learn more complex systems could thrive.  (If anybody is thinking "Jimmy the Greek" or "Rush Limbaugh" crap about black QBs, please kill yourself.  There are more white QBs by percentage who wash out than blacks.)  Improvisational players could get by on talent in ways that they can't now.\n\n3) Versatlity.  Very few players can do everything well.  Switching QBs could force defenses to switch personnel, leading to more defensive lapses and penalties just by changing one offensive player.\n\n4) Play calling.  Why have a receiver bring in one play at a time or use hand or radio signals and risk miscommunication, when an offensive coordinator could send in a QB with 5-10 plays at a time, enough for 1-2 sets of downs?  There would be less mistakes, and as they say in hockey, "fresh legs" because the player catches his breath.\n\n5) Defensive hell.  Marv Levy once talked about using Jim Kelly at QB and Doug Flutie at halfback and the havoc it could have caused defenses, this during the years of the "Ace" formation with one running back, Thurman Thomas and three wide receivers.  (He never tried it because Bills' management wouldn't let him.)  Just imagine having two capable passers on the field at once, one of them capable of running or receiving as well.  If Pittsburgh had used Neil O'Donnell and Cordell Stewart in this way, maybe both of them could have had great careers.\n\n\n.

I disagree on the Champ Bailey fumble, there was no good camera angle to confirm it went out of the enzone and not in the field of play. The Samuel/Lelie "defensive" pass intereference...total BS...definately should have been on Lelie if anyone...but certainly...7 pts didn't make a difference anyway with all the turn overs. That being said, no...the officiating was not of the caliber of the playoffs if only based on that BS play alone!

Yeh, im a fan of theirs and i agree with u. After that performance during the superbowl....wow, that was sad. I have never seen...then perform so badly. Seriosly, they need to call it quits before ppl only remember the bad them...amd i know it's cool that they have stayed together so long, but still....it's time to stop

I agree. It was fate. Houston was smart putting Ching up for PSO. For Revs, Dempsey would've been a better choice. Noonan missed it badddddd. That game suckd. lol I also heard it might be Dempsey's last Revs game

only time will tell from this pick, but charlie casserly wanted to draft a defense...\n\nmy opinion: how the hell can you not draft the most dynamic player out of college the last 20 years???\n\nthis should mean that the texans will most likely get the 1st pick overall again, next year 2007!!!

finds fault with a football team when\nthe game is over; as if he could have done a better job

Yeah, they are stupid enough to think that the refs weren't on their side. The ruling on Roethlisberger's "touchdown" was the worst call I have seen in years. They are pretty stupid for thinking that. It is kind of like Bush. He thinks he won the 2000 election by himself.

NO. the game goes to fast for him he has been in the league too long to still be making the mistakes he is making. I am a Texans fan so I will cheer for him. This year is probably his last chance. This is the best team he has had yet. I think he will end up like his fellow draft qb Joey Harrington. A b/u for the rest of his career.

Mistakes in play calling\nthey went away from the run which got them to the big game and Hassleback threw for over 40 passes in the superbowl.  The linebackers couldnt stop the run at all allow parker to run over them and keep getting first downs.  The refs also made some questionable calls but they were no excuse to loose how they did.

noooooooooooooooo that team sucks, sucked, and will foreverly suck in the future. If every other team mysteriously died they would still lose by the quarter back tripping himself for consecutive safeties
