Quite simply, how many teams change QBs, trade their best receiver, install an offense that most think will never work in the NFL, and win 7 of 8 games? It's a pretty remarkable story.
It will completely overshadow the Texans winning 10 games in a season where Andre Johnson, Arian Foster, and Matt Schaub have played exactly 4 quarters together.

I think they have been the recipient of some terrible play by the teams they are playing against. The Bears gave away that game and so did the Jets a few weeks back. Does that mean he isn't contributing? Of course not. But it's all overkill and I'm as guilty as anyone else because I'm participating in it.
Winning certainly helps the team morale and confidence. Those are definite intangibles Tebow brings and he's a very good runner.
I assume you watched the Texans game today. I caught the last quarter after I turned the Jets game off. That was a hell of a comeback by a rookie QB, on the road no less without his best receiver. No one cares. Drew Brees and Aaron Rodgers are having all time seasons for QB's. No one cares.
it's a nice story, but I'll ask you the same question I asked Coach, what should the response to all of this be?
