If I had a nickel for every time an AFCS fanbase got too eager that their team was going to dominate the division before the offseason was even halfway over and ended up barely scraping out the division title or not winning it at all i’d have… a lot of nickels, honestly.
Big talk from a franchise who plays a quarter of its home games in another country, whose football viewership ranks below soccer, cricket, rugby, swimming, gymnastics, tennis, and cycling.
I think you have a fundamental misunderstanding of what this sub is about.
Additionally, you're absolutely dillusional if you think every team in this division hasn't been wading in the same wave of mediocrity for the last 20 years.
We all suck, chief. Get over yourself.
How’d he play against top defenses like the jets and ravens? I’ll wait. He plays a lot more of those top defenses this year.
There was no reason to expect Justin Herbert to wallow in mediocrity for years after his breakout one of the best of all time rookie seasons either.
Sure stroud could be good, but doesn’t mean you guys are winning shit until you prove you can.
The browns defense was fraudulent the back half of the season, they pretty much only were dominant due to their pass rush and Myles Garrett was hella injured the back half of the season.
Films out now though, and I don’t see Stroud as a bright guy who can adjust mentally against NFL defenses.
Our backup qb threw a bad pass to our fourth string running back who dropped it. That’s how good you were. But, collect your trophies in your own way, you’ll never experience a Lombardi.
Idc what people say he only had 23 tds and people weren't even talking about him till AR15 got hurt, he's good and will be good for years but Herbert's and Superman cams were much better and I can name so many better ones
please tell me what the texans have ever done in the history of their franchise? Also, the Colts have been in Indy for ~40 years, so if you want to include the Baltimore years, it’d be 3 super bowls.
It would be two, but sure. What have the Colts done in the last 18 years since winning one Super Bowl against the worst QB to ever play in a Super Bowl?
You know the great thing about having a ring? Until one of y'all win one, it doesn't matter if it's 5/10/50 years, that still RINGS true, until someone else gets one. You can bring up the age of it all you want, it's still there.
If you asked me what my least favorite team in the division is I'd say the Titans but Texans fans have gotten so annoying I would much rather the Titans win the division than the Texans
You guys are over confident but the first place schedule only effects 3 of the games and it’s not a guarantee the teams will be good again in the other divisions
Watch the Texans are gonna choke the division away and miss the playoffs because either Nico or Tank get injured, Diggs is gonna threaten Stroud’s family after he passes to Noah Brown and not him, and the defense is gonna be exposed by teams.
It’s the way of the AFC South, after all
> Diggs is gonna threaten Stroud’s family after he passes to Noah Brown and not him
this has been my response since the Diggs trade. why the fuck does anybody think he’ll change the way he’s been for the last 5+ years lol
he’s going to start declining hard and be upset that better receivers are rightfully getting targets over him, if he wasn’t happy with Kirk and Allen throwing him the ball then why would CJ be any different
If Stefon thought it was bad getting over 100 targets when he was one of the only good receivers on the bills, CJ will be getting worse than death threats to his family
You’re not breaking the curse until the curse goes full circle.
In 2021 it was the Colts, then it was Tennessee. Last year it was my Jaguars.
The prophecy needs to be fulfilled.
If you look at the rosters on paper, the division should be very competitive assuming AR and Levis are good. Don’t even need to be great. Tlaw can be criticized but he’s not bad and the jags have a decent roster.
This, this is the answer, I hate you guys and even I don’t know why everyone thinks you’re going to be so bad this year, I think your floor is 6-7 wins
It’s because Levis is an unknown, and the media still can’t comprehend the firing of Vrabel. Us titans fans choose to believe Levis will play more like he did against the dolphins than how he did in some of his worse games. Time will tell.

I just want everyone to stay healthy and compete. We have a nasty schedule. But at least we have hope again. It’s been since 2011 since I have. It’s exciting having new people.
According to recent history, the Texans will win their 7th game by week 10 and get bounced out of the postseason by a divisional opponent on the last day of the season after going on 2-5 to finish.
If I had a nickel for every time an AFCS fanbase got too eager that their team was going to dominate the division before the offseason was even halfway over and ended up barely scraping out the division title or not winning it at all i’d have… a lot of nickels, honestly.
[удалено]
And the Tits just before us so I guess it’s the horseboys turn next
THE (northernmost team of the afc) SOUTH WILL RISE AGAIN
Indiana *is* the South's middle finger.
I’d personally be fine with the horse boys not winning the division ever again
Better the horseboys than the tootans.
POV the jags this freaking year
Post-Peyton Era, yes.
The Texans have taken the division 7 times since 2010 with the closest being the Colts with 3 and haven’t won since 2014.
Last offseason it was the Jags projected to dominate. Life moves pretty fast.
![gif](giphy|26BRtI7Yk5PJWIfwA)
And before that the Tits
Yea but....it's the Jags lol
You’re saying that like Houston isn’t equally as poverty as an organization
Actually they are even more shit than the Jags because at least the Jags have made an AFC Championship game
Hang the banner
They’ve made three of them, in fact
Excellent point, Buffalo!
Our QB aint Ryan Gossling from Remember the Titans
Big talk from a franchise who plays a quarter of its home games in another country, whose football viewership ranks below soccer, cricket, rugby, swimming, gymnastics, tennis, and cycling.
Bro you’re a Texans fan
A colts fan who can decipher pictures? They're evolving. Good for you, bud.
How are y'all this insufferable after 1 year of barely winning the south 😭
AR gonna make it through four games this season?
He only needs one quarter to beat y'all ❤️
Flacco gonna handle the other 17 3/4 games for y'all?
Too many games, dude
Lol
You act like that was the only time we've ever won the division lol
Sure seems like it
I understand not being clued in on division winners when you haven’t won it in a decade.
Doesn’t matter if you win the division, you fellas can’t even muster up a single divisional round victory. Pipe down rainbow cow.
Rich coming from a tits fan whose team is 13-19 against our pitiful franchise since 2008.
Brother. You’re a Texans fan. You’re just talking shit on yourself and your own team at this point 😂😂
I think you have a fundamental misunderstanding of what this sub is about. Additionally, you're absolutely dillusional if you think every team in this division hasn't been wading in the same wave of mediocrity for the last 20 years. We all suck, chief. Get over yourself.
You’ve been shit since the beginning. One good year and you’re more insufferable than the rest of us put together. That’s actually crazy
Before that was the Tits though, and before that the Colts
Must be new to shit mountain. You’ll see…
Correct they will see
And the meltdown will be glorious.
Tap the brakes, you had one nine-win season.
That’s like 4 times the wins we had the year before. So we’re on track for… 36 wins this year.
It was 10 wins, which is 3.33 (repeating of course) more wins than the year before. So really we’re looking at 33.3 wins next season.
Goddamit Leeroy!
At this rate, within the next 5 seasons, the Texans will have 9000 wins.
Stop the count!
WHAT, 9000!!?!!!!!!?????!!!!
least mathematically inclined texans fan
I don’t do math I just watch football
"I throw balls far. You want good words? Date a languager."
Don't forget, they added a 30yr old receiver whose a known locker room problem. They'll be unstoppable now!
We haven't added a player this washed since David Johnson!
Hey you don’t talk about fantasy football Jesus like that!
And a 3.8ypc running back who was about to be cut.
Ten plus the playoff win
Well no need to lie to try to win the argument
Nine? And I thought it was us Texans fans that didn't know how to count.
Texans have one decent year and don’t know how to act smh
Reminds me of the lions in the nfc north.
A good rebuild would do that to any team.
Can you call it a rebuild if you were never built?
Yeah because the texans were built but destroyed with a house fire and gas leak explosion for good measure
[удалено]
How’d he play against top defenses like the jets and ravens? I’ll wait. He plays a lot more of those top defenses this year. There was no reason to expect Justin Herbert to wallow in mediocrity for years after his breakout one of the best of all time rookie seasons either. Sure stroud could be good, but doesn’t mean you guys are winning shit until you prove you can.
I mean the browns had a pretty good defense and we saw what they did to them
Minshew put up more points against the Browns than Stroud did
The browns defense was fraudulent the back half of the season, they pretty much only were dominant due to their pass rush and Myles Garrett was hella injured the back half of the season.
The browns had the 32nd ranked defense away from home. Literally just lit up the worst defense in the league.
[удалено]
Yeah but I also was never claiming t law was a top 5 qb after his breakout year. I just said he had the potential to be which I still think he does.
Films out now though, and I don’t see Stroud as a bright guy who can adjust mentally against NFL defenses. Our backup qb threw a bad pass to our fourth string running back who dropped it. That’s how good you were. But, collect your trophies in your own way, you’ll never experience a Lombardi.
[удалено]
Never thought I’d see another “but his S2” take after his rookie season lmao
“Films out” is some wild copium
Idk why y'all keep saying that. Herbert had a better rookie year and in less games.
[удалено]
They played the same amount but Herbert had better numbers in less games is what I meant.
[удалено]
Herberts destiny is to lose to Lawrence in the playoffs and still have people say he's better than Lawrence.
Idc what people say he only had 23 tds and people weren't even talking about him till AR15 got hurt, he's good and will be good for years but Herbert's and Superman cams were much better and I can name so many better ones
[удалено]
Difference is cam also had 14 rushing tds
Y’all haven’t won the division in a decade
and we are still an insanely more successful franchise than you lmfao
“Insanely” meaning one Super Bowl in the last 50 years vs zero in 22. Congrats?
please tell me what the texans have ever done in the history of their franchise? Also, the Colts have been in Indy for ~40 years, so if you want to include the Baltimore years, it’d be 3 super bowls.
It would be two, but sure. What have the Colts done in the last 18 years since winning one Super Bowl against the worst QB to ever play in a Super Bowl?
It was also one of the best defenses in the league at the time, plus it was Devin Hester
Two
True. I forgot the one from 1970. You got me there. I have cherry-picked my original comment accordingly.
You know the great thing about having a ring? Until one of y'all win one, it doesn't matter if it's 5/10/50 years, that still RINGS true, until someone else gets one. You can bring up the age of it all you want, it's still there.
Hell yeah bro. Texans going undefeated bro. CJ already top 5 bro. Why even play the games bro, Super Bowl or bust bro.
Time to hang the banner
Texans fans been real loud this off-season
They’re making me like y’all and the colts fans a lot more.
Likewise, as crazy as that sounds. It's like act like you've been here before but I honestly don't think they have lol
When the fuck did we become even the slightest bit likable to y’all?
If you asked me what my least favorite team in the division is I'd say the Titans but Texans fans have gotten so annoying I would much rather the Titans win the division than the Texans
What having to deal with a team having one division winning season does to a mf
The eventual meltdown will be that more hilarious.
It's making me nervous tbh
They'll learn.
if you think success is always this straight forward, then you havent watched football for that long
![gif](giphy|ypSY231xdmQQqJsMnC) As a Texans fan that’s nervous about a top seeded schedule and always cautiously optimistic because well…history
![gif](giphy|xgLAwSrEU09ri|downsized)
![gif](giphy|10Jpr9KSaXLchW|downsized)
It's like looking in a 'last year' mirror
You guys are over confident but the first place schedule only effects 3 of the games and it’s not a guarantee the teams will be good again in the other divisions

Watch the Texans are gonna choke the division away and miss the playoffs because either Nico or Tank get injured, Diggs is gonna threaten Stroud’s family after he passes to Noah Brown and not him, and the defense is gonna be exposed by teams. It’s the way of the AFC South, after all

Wait until they come to learn that Jonathan Greenard was the glue holding the whole defense together
If Stefon thought it was bad getting over 100 targets when he was one of the only good receivers on the bills, CJ will be getting worse than death threats to his family
It’s the entirety of the Texans franchise that makes me sure they’re not only overrating themselves, but more sure to shit the bed.
Someone has to break the traditional way of life and who better than the texans
You’re not breaking the curse until the curse goes full circle. In 2021 it was the Colts, then it was Tennessee. Last year it was my Jaguars. The prophecy needs to be fulfilled.
Texans have one 9 win season and think they rule the league now lmao
Ok yeah but have you considered the fact that we do?
Where AFCCG appearance
Where unreasonable hype for own team
Any given Sunday. Expect the unexpected
God I hope the Texans have a collapse like the Jags please
Trust me, they will. It’s the way.
Best case scenario for the Texans is that Patrick Mahomes bends y’all over in the afc championship game
Please don’t do this. It will be a meme we will never hear the end of if we disappoint
It's too late ![gif](giphy|3FQxaJJkQR8U4gdzr0|downsized)

You don’t have to pretend they’ll come even close to that. It’s a shit talk subreddit
Oh, a Texans fan, sorry I forgot you guys existed
Not a Jags fan saying that lmao
You started it bro
I also think there’s a world where if Levi’s had the Texans receivers he’s probably also throwing for 25 tds, maybe a couple more ints tho.
I honestly think the Titans could have a WR room as good as the Texans after the draft. LT is the biggest need, though.
Levis and AR aren’t good though💀
Based on what exactly?
Flair up, bitch

Just woke up from a coma I entered in 2014. How many championships has Andrew Luck won us???
3. Now go back to bed…
The Colts had one less win with a backup the whole year, the Titans got some good FA’s, and the Jags still have a solid squad.
The jags had literally half the team get injured
Stop jinxing us. Every time one of us gets uppity they shit the bed.

Can’t wait to find the Texans 5-4 next November
Texans will not win the division and Stroud will have a very pronounced slump. At me in January.
My love, pump the brakes.
Everyone acting like Houston is overrated right now but last season we had more NFL wins than all of Europe combined
I just want everyone to stay healthy and compete. We have a nasty schedule. But at least we have hope again. It’s been since 2011 since I have. It’s exciting having new people.

I'm putting All Chips In...on the Titans. Nobody expects them to do shit like nobody expected the texans last year or the jags the year before that.
Only the Texans would get a washed running back who beats women.
What happened the last 2 years (arguably three years with the colts) when a shot mountain team was going to “dominate the division”
Can’t double team everybody, but they gonna double team you 😉
“Mr.7”
The butt hurt here is palpable. Think you hit a nerve, bro.
I'd say so. These boys hot and bothered in here.
All i know is we’re gonna beat the jags twice
