Texans show some heart in loss to Patriots

I was impressed a little by the Houston Texans a little in their loss to the New England Patriots. The Texans played hard and made a game of it longer than I thought they would. I think the Texans are a quarterback away from being a Super Bowl contender.

The Texans overpaid for Osweiler and I saw it coming. If the Broncos though Osweiler was a franchise quarterback they would have tagged him. Osweiler got his feelings hurt in Denver and didn't want to play there anymore. The fact that the Broncos let him walk told me all I need to know about him.

Rumors of the Texans coaching staff being in trouble should be just crazy talk. Yes Houston won a weak division and beat an Oakland team in the playoffs who didn't have a quarterback. But I think the Texans coaches have done a good job with what they have to work with.

Can rookie Dak Prescott take the Cowboys to the Super Bowl

Can Dak Prescott take the Dallas Cowboys to the Super Bowl? That is the question and the answer is yes he can. But will he? Prescott has only had a few rookie moments after replacing the then injured Tony Romo.



The Cowboys defense is playing better than expected and that will help the Cowboys rookie quarterback to try to take Dallas to the promised land. The big help of course if that great Cowboys offensive line.




Oh yeah in addition to the Cowboys offensive line they also have another rookie player. Ezekiel Elliot will be a huge factor in the Cowboys Super Bowl hunt if he don't hit a rookie wall. Elliott has played well and a dynamic running back can take a lot of pressure off of Dak Prescott and the rest of the Cowboys offense.
