Just keep looking at what we're doing, keep watering and ask yourselves first and know 'Are you watering? And are you fertilizing every day?' So when it's time to pop, it'll pop.

I'm really excited for this game. The Ravens are certainly the better team but for the first time in 20 years of following the Texans, it actually feels like they have the potential to play any team and pull some CJ Stroud bullshit. We had some good teams in the early 2010s but it always felt like we circled the Patriots on the schedule and thats where they wheels fell off, and it just feels more hopeful now.

edit; I guess there's a case to be made for Deshaun Watson bullshit, but his bullshit was generally some last second heroics after BOB got a 6 point lead and conservatively pissed the game away - Demeco doesn't seem to buy into dumb poo poo like prevent defence while up 10 - he's not letting off the gas until he's up 30 and pulling starters.

Obscure meaningless stats favor Baltimore bigly. No point in the Texans even showing up today.

Including regular season in that second one is silly for this game. Most rookie QBs kinda suck, or play for bad teams that got high draft position, and/or take a while to find their footing. So good coach is good against on average bad QB - shocking news. If it was just post-season, at least there you've narrowed it down to the rookies good enough to get there.

Lovie gave Chicago the #1 pick that:
-gave Carolina Bryce Young
-Chicago a loving haul for the #1 pick
-Texans Cj Stroud and indirectly Will Anderson
- Colts Anthony Richardson

I can't remember the last meaningless game that changed the face of 4 franchises so massively and potentially for several generational defining moments.

The craziest story is that DeMeco Ryans wanted Will Anderson, Jr. more than C.J. Stroud, and it was GM Nick Caserio who pushed for drafting Stroud. Had we drafted Anderson at the 2 spot, there was zero shot we were getting a trade with Arizona to draft Stroud, so he drafted him first.

In 2002 madden started being sold over here and games started to be shown on TV. Esp when i got pay tv and espn would show replays.

When the season started I jumped on the panthers after they were rebuilding because I thought their logo looked cool. A year or so of playing the video game with my knucklehead friends and a friend who's a huge falcons / vick fan got me interested in the sport.

Played in a small rec league as a teenager around rugby and soccer. As technology got better and internet got better, watched more, learned more, got into playing fantasy and on it goes.

Nice! I lived in Melbourne around then before we moved up to Wollongong, but I didn’t get into football until I moved to the states. I was deep into Aussie rules and rugby, though, so it eventually made the transition easier

Carolina and Jacksonville have two of my favourite colour schemes and logos, which is exactly how I always picked my fifa teams lol
