I don't think this will be the case because for it to be believable and not too stupid,but what if we humans are the prize?We are under the inpression that the Xenos are the weapon and we are the little children of the Jockeys.Now,reverse the concept-what if there is something in us that makes us the weapon,and the Xeno's are the children.What if they have two groups trying to get us just like Weyland and Yutani want the Xenos? And whatever they need us for can only be done somewhere else-like say they send us to a planet so we wipe out that species?Maybe we are the dangerous species,look how easily we cause extinction to our own planet.It is a weird idea,but maybe it is they have the giant head and weird maps all over our planet to make us think they are the Kings but in actuality,we are being sent there to wreck havoc?

Interesting idea but nooooo sorry, I dont think so, maybe the Engineers want to wipe us out as precisely because we have become to dangerous and unruly "children: who can now challenge the Gods...

I wonder if it will be like 2001 Space Odyssey. A lot of people don't catch it but the monilith in 2001 is an AI. It teaches apes how to use tools, this is the begining of human technology. They wanted us to build new AI for them to meet. HAL was who the moniliths really wanted to meet but when the ship arrives theres only a human onboard and they don't know what to do with him. Maybe the Jockeys are artificial and David is the one they really want to meet. The humans on the Prometheus may just be seen as pests.

I dont see how, because the damage we do to our earth is so slow, the only really damage we can inflict on a world to wipe it out would be to drop the biggest H Bombs we can make maybe 2000 MT ones, or Drop somekind of Bio Virus that wipes out all life. But surely the Engineers would have much greater and effective weapons like that. Also what other purpose does the Xeno do apart from kill, what it does is maybe offer a infestation but again while Xenos are a near prefect killing lifeform they are not a ideal Weapon. A Weapon you would need it to have a certain amount of a half-life. A Virus like the one in I am Legend but with a shelf life of say 10 years (i.e Zombies die after that period) would be better.

It is possible that we are not the ONLY Bipedal species that have formed due to the Space Jockeys messing with planets. Perhaps the face hugger is designed to work any anything like a space jockey or a human or a Uranian or a Alpha Centurian, perhaps its thier "Cure" , maybe they considers us a pathogen and the earth is one of thier pitri dishes
