Default Did the Texans throw the game?

Anybody think Houston lost on purpose? I guess they tried to get that onside kick, but by giving away a 10-point lead with 30 seconds left, they held on to the number one draft pick....

So glad the Texans lost. Where does 2-10 get us? I want that #1 pick.

I am almost positive you are being serious, but I hate when people imply teams lose games on purpose to get the #1 pick or to have a better matchup in the playoffs. All the men are competitors they want to win no matter what.

Once again, not implying that the OP thought this just the amount of people who actaully buy in to this never ceases to amaze me.

It's foolish to believe they threw the game. A lot of the Texan players won't be on the team next year. They don't care about the NFL draft order.

And they jumped out to a 21 point lead just to make the loss even more crushing.

This is very true. A lot of these players will be gone, Dom Capers is fighting for relevance (and another job somewhere cause he's gone too). Many on that field had plenty to play for.
