Anyone else think the Texans just made the biggest mistake their franchise will make?

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.

There were so many moves that occured, both good and bad. I am going to list the top 5 moves that will change the season.\n\n1. Edge leaving Colts/ going to Cards- with edge on the cards, the qbs should finally succeed, just as peyton succeeded. Also, the colts are in a little bit of trouble.\n2. culpepper to dolphins- Now that they have a good qb, they will be a force to reckon with again.\n3. bettis leaves Pittsburgh- he was a key part to the super bowl win and now without a power rusher, they will have to look elsewhere for his clutch rushing.\n4. herm edwards to KC- one of the best coaches goes to a good team, yet not good enough for playoffs yet.\n5. McNair leaving Titans/going to Ravens- This is a good or bad move for both teams. now with mcnair gone, Vince Young has a chance to shine, which could be good or bad due to his age. The Ravens finnaly got a good QB, but he's injury prone, so Boller could still be starting the majority of the time.

For a few reasons:\n\n1.  Bush is over rated, and is not an every down back.  They already have an outside runner in  Dominick Davis.  An inside runner is what they lacked\n\n2.  Mario Williams will fill a bigger need for them\n\n3.  Bush would have been and will be nearly impossible to sign with the Texans current cap restictions\n\n4.  Mario was willing to sign for less money\n\n5.  The Texans are smarter than to fall for media hype instead of making a sound football decision

I think the Texans will have their best season yet. With the acquisitions of Flannagan (C) and Moulds (WR) and after the draft Heisman winner Reggie Bush the Texans look good on paper. David Carr is the only question mark but with a seasoned OL and how it stands right now with a solid back in Dominck Davis and perhaps Reggie Bush alot of pressure will be taken off of him. And look at the division they are in its pretty weak with the exception of the Colts, the titans are going to lose McNair and Jacksonville has never been good. With all the accusations and what seems to be a pretty good draft coming their way look for Houston to go 8-8 or 9-7.

Only if they make the playoffs and wins some games in the playoffs.  I keep thinking about the Colts last year.  They went from "maybe going 16-0" to an early exit from the playoffs.  We'll have to wait and see.

(Still chuckling at Random thoughts' answer above)\n\nI take it your question refers to my Buffalo Bills' terrible first day at the NFL Draft, Moon? Well, let me see if I can explain...\n\nThe Bills had/have serious needs at the following positions: offensive linemen, defensive linemen, and the secondary. They also had/have major question marks at quarterback, wide receiver and tight end. On day one, which is when the best talent is available, they failed to address the O-line at all (a catastrophic mistake in a draft deep in quality offensive linemen). They made an insane reach pick, trading away their 2nd and 3rd round picks to get an overrated defensive tackle at the end of round one whom I had ranked 10th among DTs on my list and Mel Kiper (draft expert) had ranked 12th. Only TWO DTs had been taken off the board at that time. In other words, they could have picked this guy up one or even two full rounds later. Insane!\n\nThey did address their needs in the secondary but even managed to screw that up. Their first pick was drafted at least 10-15 places higher than he should have been. They could have traded down to get the same guy (and picked up an extra draft choice in the process) or taken a better player at the same position (I can think of at least a half-dozen who were available). It was the WORST Bills draft I have ever followed and I and other Bills fans I've since commiserated with (including my three brothers) am bitterly disappointed and dejected by the dreadful experience.\n\nThe best explanation I can give you is that the very geriatric Bills owner, Ralph Wilson, hired an equally ancient former head coach, Marv Levy, as GM (a job he is simply NOT qualified for -- and he has been proving it on a daily basis since making the WRONG head coaching hire). Why should we Bills fans be surprised by how terrible they conducted the draft? Truly awful... We'll be lucky to match last year's hideous 5-11 record this season... I'll say 4-12 at worst, 6-10 at best... Sad.

Probably not. Not only is lack of star power at the QB and RB positions hurting them, they also suffer from playing in the AFC West, where 6 games of the season is spent playing San Diego, Denver and KC, not exactly walks-in-the-park.

NO WAY!\n\nHouston was stupid for not taking Bush, even if they didn't want him.\n\nThey could of taken Bush, and traded him for Mario Williams for less money and some players or draft picks.

These people are idiots. Denver was the 2nd best team (record wise) last year and they improved with a quality draft and free agency. Denver only lost to the defending super bowl champs last year which would make them.....2nd best team in the AFC. Chargers lost Brees which will hurt them, Chiefs are a very old team and never seem like they can put it together down the stretch. If anyone thinks the Raiders are going to improve so dramiticly that they can compete for the division is currenty high. The Bengals still have to wait and see with Carson Palmers knee injury. Pitt lost Randle El and Bettis, 2 key players last year. Partriots havent been as strong and in my opinion wont win their division. Colts always have a dominent passing game, but last a huge factor with James. I dont see any reason why Denver cant go to the super bowl.

Yes, it started a dynasty that otherwise wouldn't have happened.  The entire Patriots reign is a sham because of that fumble.  I give credit to Vinatieri for making that kick in the snow and the Pats were certainly a great team over several years, but they should have never won that game against the Raiders.  Its the worst call because of what was at stake (playoff game) and the ramifications (Super Bowls for the Pats).

It wasn't the right choice.  Didn't Parcells say  if you ask him to cook you should let him shop for the groceries.  Zeke made this mess with all of his bonehead moves.  He needs to sit down with Joe Dumars.  Now that's an NBA executive who knows how to run a team (Pistons).  \n\nIsiah fired Brown and as president and general manager named himself as the replacement.  I guess Thomas figures he'll do what Pat Riley did.  He's no Chuck Daily!

You and me both. That loss made me nauseous. Hell, I think it made every Giants fan nauseous. \n\nYou know what, I've said it for about two weeks now, that I'm really surprised how well Tony Romo is playing. He's really just taken that team and made it better. The Saints, well, I am happy for them and I'm disappointed in the Bears (I just hate the Pats, I wanted the Bears to win yesterday). \n\nHonestly, I don't really know what happened yesterday. Eli...oh Eli. There are only so many excuses that people can come up with to explain his bipolar playing. One game: he's fantastic. Lately, he's just tanking. I sat there watching him throw that final interception and just felt myself cringe. Why? WHY! He needs to go home and have a serious conversation with Peyton. DONT DO STUPID THINGS WHEN THE GAME IS ON THE LINE! Now I have never really liked Plaxico. He makes a big play about...once a game if he can catch. Other than that, he's a complete waste to our offense. If they can teach Tiki not to fumble, they can teach Plax how to hold onto a damn ball. I wouldn't be surprised of Shockey decided to leave. I mean c'mon, they never even use him! He's there for purely decoration, and I'd be pissed off if I were him. And I don't care about "well, I might have been roughing the passer," that half-tackle by Kiwi nearly made me want to punch the screen. TAKE DOWN THE QB. Just make sure his knee hits the ground, then done. Take your damn 15 yards (it wouldn't've even been) and then tackle him again. \n\nI think that with losing our best players, it's exposing how shaky Eli's quarterbacking skills are. With our best players in the game and healthy, they kind of balanced Eli's crappy mistakes and still kept us in there. But since we're playing 3rd stringers, we just don't have that ability anymore. \n\nI think last night we handed the division title to Dallas on a golden platter. And after the way we played, I'm afraid to say we deserved it. If we win against Dallas, we'll at least be tied with them. We are still in the Wild Card race with the Panthers, but I know every Giants fan remembers that game last year...complete shut out. Complete embarrassment. \n\n...I think we need to draft a new QB. And receivers. And a healthy defense.

Well, I am laughing at the Texans right now. I am a Dallas fan. Thank God that they are not getting Bush. Now the Saints are going to be pretty good though. Brees and Bush. But who knows? This draft has been getting crazier ever since January 4.

No way in hell.  It doesn't even seem like they're as good as their record says.  Jeff Van Gundy's got a real mess on his hands.  T-Mac can't do it himself (when he's not injured).
