Houston Texans 1974

Announcements ;
The Houston Texans have a new GM after a 5-11 récord the previous season in what It looks like the worst division in the PFL. The rookie GM will look forward to giving this team their first winning season in franchise history. The Houston Texans are currently in a great position in the draft to get what they need in this rebuilding process. GM since2001 is looking to rebuild this team through free agency but financially the cap is not there this year so the draft will be a priority for the Texans but the season after they going to let a lot of cash out through free agency. The fans are already worried and questioning will the kid last more than 2 seasons in a competitive league among mans or will he be a bust and get his **** kick...

feedback
Overall Im very satisfied with the way my defense is playing , I know is just pre-season but is better to see your team playing okay than playing like trash, with that being say I'm okay with my defense right now they have been able to perform. I would love to see my offense play better , even though Perry only touch the ball once when it came to running the ball there is no reason for the backfield to average 0.83 yards/carry. my rookies been doing well especially WR Jordan Gibbons , DT Christopher Overlock and LT Richard Kula. I need to see more from our first round pick FS Edwin Hill who I was going to sit down for the rest of the pre-season but 2 tackles in 2 games even though in the first game he got hurt is still really really bad from a top 10 overall pick.
