It was austin's nba feeder league team name until they changed to the spurs. That's why it sounded familiar.

A bit old and I may not have been paying attention, the Texans have signed a safety from the Jets, Marcus Gilchrist

http://jetswire.usatoday.com/2017/08/01/ex-jets-s-marcus-gilchrist-lands-with-texans/

Apparently he was outperformed by the two rookies the Jets brought in.

With Joeseph, Jackson, and Johnson I'm not as worried about the safeties. I think If Gilchrist can be just a guy then that's fine if salary matches the role.

I only caught his first game, but Watson seems to overthrow a lot, and it's not like he was Captain Efficient in college either, honestly.

So I only caught a few bits and pieces of the Colts games. Then I read the article.

Is it fairly accurate where we are at?

What article are you talking about?

For content: our offense is a dumpster fire while the defense is surprisingly solid. We will go 6-10 while potentially trotting Luck out to destroy more of his prime.

I'd like to say the Texans can only go up from Brock, but I'm sure I've thought the same things after our other turds at QB. I'm ready for the battle for the crown of our dung heap of a division to begin.

Look at it this way: the defense doesn't have to be 150% of the team in order to achieve victory anymore. There may be just a slightly, ever so slightly bit more balance moving forward.
