I am Mario Williams, and my team fucking sucks. Can we just get a good QB for once?
>> Anonymous
Yeah, you can. But you won't. CONSIDER:
1. The first time Texans get a crack at getting a QB, they get David Carr. He had a shitty OLine, but they didn't care and ruined him forever. Not that he was ever that good.
2. The 2006 Draft has the greatest prospects at QB in a decade (AS PROSPECTS). Houston has #1 pick and takes Super Mario. That's not too bad considering Cutler looks like the only one panning out.
3. They should change their name to the Oilers.

yeah but he can fly.

Well, the other choice at QB in 2002 was Joey Harrington. Houston was screwed either way.

Houston fan here,

I agree with the name change back to Oilers, and a replacement QB would be nice. Our team is full of talent, that shouldn't be with its current record.

It's not hard to at least take an educated guess on who will pan out. Is it just me? Think back. Did anyone REALLY think Alex Smith would pan out? How about Jamarcus Russell? Harrington went against this. It's because of his fucking arm. He had a cannon and everyone pretty much considered him a sure-fire guy.

The Texans traded for Matt Schub. MATT SCHUB.

Out of boredom, I'm going to rate the QB prospects on how pretty much everyone knew of their surething-ness. 1 is no belief, 10 is Peyton Manning.
2000
Chad Pennington - The arm hurt him. 3
2001
Mike Vick - Oh, that's a good one. People questioned if he could develop into an NFL QB, but he had so much potential. His arm was good, he was fast as hell, he was a winner... 8
2002
David Carr - Mehhh. I don't know if it was the fact that the Texans were an expansion team and everyone knew he'd struggle forever, but did anyone REALLY believe he'd pan out? Maybe, but not in the forseeable future. 5
Joey Harrington - HOLY CRAP HE CAN THROW A BALL 60 YARDS THROUGH THE UPRIGHTS ON HIS KNEES~~~~~! 7
Patrick Ramsey - No, not really. People even lol'd at the time. What happened to him? 2
2003
Carson Palmer - Ooo. Err. This one's a little tougher. He wasn't "sure-thing" but people thought.. he only had one really good season and a lot of people were skeptical, but he was still easily above Leftwich and the gang. 6
Byron Leftwich - He was... uh... he was pretty trendy. He wasn't athletic, but there was the "potential" there. 2003 was a weird year for QBs. They were all muddled together except Palmer. 5
Kyle Boller - Again, muddled field. 5
Rex Grossman - He had a lot of fanboys, IIRC. Not to mention he was the "winner" of the group. 5
2004
Eli Manning - Lol. Yeah, you remember the hype. 9
Phillip Rivers - "Manning might be Peyton's brother, but watch out for this Rivers guy!" 7
Ben Roethlisberger - A Steelers fan is going to have to remind me. Wasn't it considered "weird" that Pittsburg picked him? He was the outside guy from a bad conference that rided on his big arm and the fact that he's hard to sack. 6
J.P. Losman - Lolman. 4

2005
Alex Smith - "He's the number one guy!" "Why?" "I don't know, but the 49ers are so bad that they need a face for the franchise." 5
Aaron Rodgers - He fell because he's a Tedford QB and "they're always bad". He got more hype than Smith, though. Especially when he fell. 6
Jason Campbell - Nobody ever talked about him. Few people expected him to make the first round. The Skins were thought to be stupid for doing this. 3
2006
Vince Young - "He failed the Wonderlic!" "He had one good game!" "He's going to take years to mature into an NFL QB!" "But he has so much potential!" "He's a winner!" "Houston fans would love him!" 7
Matt Leinart - Always considered the #1 prospect until his last game. He wasn't that athletic and didn't have particularly strong arm. But still. He was Matt Leinart. 7
Jay Cutler - Had a fucking cannon attached to his shoulder. Plus, he got a lot of pub at the Senior Bowl. 7
2007
JaMarcus Russell - Lol. He was like a "Bigger Ben" in that he's a collosus. That's pretty much all he had going for him, though. 5
Brady Quinn - Oh geez. He got a lot more pub from the media than even Russell. I gotta give him a 7.
2008
Matt Ryan - He had that "David Carrness" in that he was considered a pretty good, not once-in-a-lifetime, guy who was headed to be the face of a bad franchise forever. 6
Joe Flacco - "Who?" "The guy who played for Delaware" "Oh. Lol Baltimore." 3

We can't have the Oilers name back because Bud "the snake" Adams still owns the rights to it. Houston should have bought the rights to the name when fucknuts left.

Flacco got a lot of pub from teams trying to trade into the middle of the first round to pick him. The Ravens did this too.

I'm glad we have Mario and DeMeco; otherwise, we'd be unbearable to watch. As of now we're just a joke with other teams' cocks in our mouths, but at least we have a good run D, a star DE and a perennial pro-bowler MLB.

Forgot Brian Brohm i'd give him a 8 or 9 before his Senior year then a 5 or 6 after it

Brohm probably cost himself at least 7 million dollars by staying that extra year. He should have bolted when he was a junior.

This thread makes me sad. I want so badly to have the Oilers back. Not only were they a better team, but they didn't have some stupid name. I hate being a Texans fan, it just feels so....country? I don't know, I don't see the Oakland Californians or the Miami Floridains. Texans is a stupid name and the stupid cow helmet is worse.
