Would you today trade places with Texans fans?

[Eastport bills]

I love being a Bills fan and that means for life and my kids and grandkids are more rabid than I am. After watching the Texans whip the Bengals, it reminded me of Josh’s second season and the joy and optimism these young guys play with. If the Bills are not involved in the postseason, these Texans will be easy to root for.

I'm thinking of switching places with the Panthers fans, they've got nowhere to go but up. 

 

 

This is just a weird question, most people are fans of a team, others only want to be a fan of success.

Let’s just hire their OC and not have to find out 

[SCBills]

No.  Let’s see if the league has something for Stroud.  He hasn’t had to adjust to that counter punch yet.  
 

Maybe he’s just that good.  
 

We’ll see. 

[FilthyBeast]

I say yes but this is based on the assumption that the Texans are going to continue to come on strong and make the playoffs this year with a dynamic rookie QB.

 

But even if they ultimately fall short, it's hard to say future isn't brighter than Buffalo's considering Stroud's emergence and they still have tons of draft picks, cap room and a young up and coming head coach. They are going to be a major factor in the AFC for years to come.

Honestly a really tough question but the Texans still haven’t done anything yet. But I absolutely love Ryans and Stroud is a top 10 qb as a rookie. Their turnaround has been amazing. But still too early to take them over us.

He’s about as pure of a passer as there has ever been as a rookie. There might be some adjustments because there always is, but IMO, he’s about as sure of a bet as there is to continue this trajectory.

Also, the league should make them be the Houston oilers again. Seeing that fake madden franchise mood team in Nashville where those unis was gross.

The Texans have a great young coach, a great young QB and a rookie WR who’s better than anyone not named Diggs on this team, they are set up for the fun Bills fans had from 2020 on.  They still have a lot of holes, but they could be a legitimate contender in short order.

Not in any way imaginable.  

 

Having to root for anything in Texas is a no any way shape or form.

 

Let me guess... raging woke liberal?

I think there needs to be a test given before posts are able to be made after losses.

Another poll that shows the Lynch Mob here is a vocal minority. Very vocal, but also very minor in numbers.

My opinion had nothing to do with politics in any way shape or form.  

 

Now, mowing the lawn once a week from memorial day until september when it is as hot as mars outside....this I do not like amongst a few other things.  

[Buffalo Barbarian]

So you want us to choose Houston, not happening.

 

Josh is not done and will rebound from this , Strouds days is coming

How would you not? They have a star rookie QB that so far looks to have a ceiling with no limit, a WR room packed with talent. A young HC that looks like one of the next stars of the league. What's not to like?

The bills on the other hand have pretty clearly peaked. Even if we weren't dumping games to bottom feeders and generally playing terribly, this squad as built and coached has never been championship worthy. We're like a worse version of the late 2000s Chargers.

Then why don't you switch?

 

I don't get that.  If you say "how would you not?"  Why DON'T you?

Give me the same team and staff in a Bills uniform in Buffalo and I will.

[jethro_tull]

you have to axe?

[Son of a K-Gun]

Everyone seems to be forgetting the fact that Houston has a DOME.

 

….and NO for the record.

[Nextmanup]

I voted "NO" but that's only because it was a poorly worded question.

 

No, I sure as hell do not want to think of myself as a fan of the Houston Texans.

 

But that's not really what the OP is driving at.  He's basically asking:

"Which franchise has a brighter future right now: Buffalo or Houston?"

 

The answer to that may well be Houston.
