The preacher from Sunday night mentioned people going from joy, to faith, to hope. When you lose joy and faith all you are left with is hope. We all hoped the players still cared. We hadn’t seen it in recent weeks. We saw it on Sunday. All 47 guys gave their blood, sweat, and tears to win that game. Most athletes care deeply about winning even when coaches, executives, and fans may not. Not all of them do. Fortunately for Houston Texans fans, the ones that don’t weren’t there on Sunday.
That faith in the players has been restored.
