Kubiak: "It's Time For Someone Else to Win The AFC South"
At the team luncheon yesterday, Texans head coach Gary Kubiak had quite a few quotes that are being thrown around Twitter wildly. The most notable was when he talked of the team's expectations around the city and within the organization. Which led to the statement of, "It's time for somebody else...

We've spent a lot of time in this lonely offseason discussing the Texans offense and defense. We've spent some time on the special teams. We've even spent a little time talking about Frank Bush's curious definition of "aggression." But we haven't really spent much time on the subject of Gary...
