I'm not totally buying in but I'll remain hopeful. Being negative 24/7 like many on this site are has to be a drain.  I just hope we dont  try to fix it all in one offseason. Lets shoot for 5-6 wins and to get rid of the dead money and void year contract stuff so we have money for the long term future.

I'm not going to make fun of anyone for being optimistic, you do you.

I'm in a "Give me a reason to even care" state of mind.

There's being hopeful and there's the utter nonsense, 'get on board or gtfo' euphoric, and quite toxic, atmosphere that developed for god knows what reason last year around the team, staff, Burns, etc. No issue with the former, but the latter deserves derision and will hopefully be in short supply this year, replaced by a decent recognition of the reality of the team's situation. This will allow for actual discussion and recognition of multiple points of view, good and skeptical alike.

not buying into anything until i see results (wins).

i will be hopeful that we get things figured out, but there's no way i'm betting or counting on it. odds are it's another fail.

same here. I got fuging DUPED last year. Wont get fooled again/ get excited until we win a 10th game in a season.

I would like to be optimistic and don't want to be the drag. I just want football people in charge again. It's just killing me that a guy with 20 billion and his wife have taken over. But, your right. I will try and get back on board at some point and be ready for next season. I really just want good football.

    • WR: Nico, Woods, Tank (R) TE: Schultz OL: Tunsil/Howard/Deiter/Mason/Fant vs. WR: Chark, Thielen, Mingo (R) TE: Hurst OL: Icky/Zavala (R)/Bozeman/Jensen (R)/Moton   Panthers' had the better OL before losing BC week 1 and AC week 4 which is kind of ironic considering how in the following year DB went down in W1 and Shaq in W4 resulting in the defense going all to Hell. CJ has done amazing in Houston, but he also wasn't asked to carry Zavala, Jensen, Mingo, Hurst, and Chark as a rookie.
    • Past 5 seasons, IMO CJ Stroud and Joe Burrow are the 2 best young QBs that have emerged in the league in that window.  They also didn’t need vets to be their primary pass catchers.  They helped fellow youngsters be great at WR.   almost all the other young QBs have been paired up with vets in their top options….and haven’t been as promising.  so it isn’t Madden.  But the league hasn’t played out as you suggest it does.   Good QBs make others around them better.   
    • In 2023 their roster wasn’t stacked. They nailed the poo out of the 2023 draft and since they knew Davis Mills wasn’t the guy, they tanked properly to get pick 2. They also took Cleveland’s ridiculous offer for Watson unlike us with Burns. Houston received enough draft capital to jump up to 3 while picking up the right guys in Anderson and Stroud. The Texans were not stacked or better than us in 2023. They had 11 total wins from 2020 to 2022. They didn’t have a terrible front office so they made sure they got their QB of the future while tanking well and getting more draft picks. They are a textbook study of what we should have done in 2022/2023 offseason even though people in here still think tanking is a bad word and our culture would be bad if we were the Texans. We literally had the chance to be the Texans right now and fuged it up.
