Plenty of Titans fans complained when we lumped the Houston Oilers in with the Tennessee Mt. Rushmore. They think the all-time great Oilers stayed in Houston, and that the Texans should inherit them for the purposes of figuring out the best four.

We’d agree -- if the franchise known as the Oilers hadn’t moved to Tennessee and remained the Oilers for several years before becoming the Titans.

So Houston gets the Texans, and the Texans only.

Which means that it’s time for Houstonians to nominate their favorite Texans for the team’s Mt. Rushmore, based on only 11 years in league.

Andre Johnson gets the front corner. We’ll let you figure out the rest of them.
