Think about this: the Texans essentially gave up Duane Brown, J.J. Watt, Deandre Hopkins, two first round picks, and a second round pick for Tunsil. Let that sink in.
That’s like the Astros trading Verlander, Framber, Javier, Bregman, Altuve, and Alvarez for Jacob Degrom.
And yet people still renew their season tickets. Let that sink in.
I guess I shouldn’t complain. I had no expectations that the Texans could have stayed within five touchdowns today. The fact that I’m disappointed in a close loss is a win.
Its the little things.
My wife has more stroke than I do.
She has more endurance than I do.
She’s an Aggie, so…
They do seem to get inured to futility.
The Bucs are gonna win that division at 7-10.
Sometimes I think I made a Faustian Bargain in the Texans’ first game ever.
I’d rather they not.

Duane Brown + 2018 5th round pick:
3rd 2018: OT Martinas Rankin, got hurt, traded his 2nd year for 1 season of Carlos Hyde (Orlando Brown Jr was 3 picks later)
2nd 2019: Lonnie Johnson
Deandre Hopkins + 4th round pick:
David Johnson, washed up RB
2020 2nd: Ross Blacklock
2020 4th: John Reid
I think they further unloaded Blacklock to the Pats for a 6th rounder or something.
But most of those moves weren’t done by Caserio, correct?
Let’s not forget that Caserio extended David Johnson.
Yes, he sucked in Houston. He was traded to Minny for a 6th round pick this summer. This makes the trade look even worse.
My actual favorite part is that the Texans looked at those trades, and others, and said “hell, that’s not good enough for you guys, why don’t we throw in an extra pick?”
Of course, it’s like the Coen Brother’s reference to King Midas’ idiot brother: everything he touched turned to shit
The Oilers no longer own the biggest choke in NFL history:
The Colts blew a 33 point lead to the Vikings today.
