You're not disputing anything I've said, and obviously you agree that there must be a problem with the chemistry. So, I don't know why you have to dismiss it because it was an ex-player who said it (like a current player is going to come out and blast the team chemistry) and then try and bait me into a sematical argument about how you think there's a problem but for whatever reason Petey Faggins' word ins't acceptable on the matter.

This is not a semantics argument. I am not disagreeing with how you say it, I am disagreeing with you. I am saying unequivocally that Petey Faggins is not a good source for Titans team comparisons as long as he is a member of the Titans.
As you stated, no current Texans player will speak out. I assume you come to this conclusion based on them being a current employee who is relying on Bob McNair for their well being. How can you understand this but not the conflict of interest for Petey saying his current team is better than the old one.
That's why I mentioned if a retired player said something I would listen, because they have no stake in any direction. They have no motive and no boss to answer to. They have total objectivity. If Petey retires and still makes this comment I'll listen. I'd also listen if Petey played for the 49ers next year and compared the Titans and the Texans because neither would be his boss. But right now he has no objectivity to compare the Titans and Texans when one currently pays his bills.
