I plan on watching it but I don't think he will tell anything without talking to Kubiak first. Kubiak says he will meet tomorrow morning with Uncle Bob.

He is basically making excuses for Gary...he said replacing Gary is "traumatic" and that it sets them back 2 years so you need to diagnose the problem and solve that problem. He then said the defense is the problem. He is so short sighted it is stupid. I'm deflated. He basically is giving Gary a pass despite him hiring the D guy.

There was something weird about those "thank you bob"'s
McNair following a process. Process. Process. Process.
Indicated he wants to achieve success in the shortest period of time; mentions "setting the team back two years" with too many changes.
I guess he should have started two years ago, last year at the latest......

He basically said you have to identify what the problem is
Decoded - The problem is the defense
Then he said you have to fix the problem
Decoded - Frank Bush is gone
Then he said is it that bad that you have to bring in a new coach who wants new players and even threw in 'scouts', really Bob? You're talking about SCOUTS??
Decoded - I'm not willing to start over, sorry fans, we'll get there ..... someday ....

During "Inside the Game" - Boob McNair said that:
- hiring a new coach will be "major trauma" to the organization and would set us back 2 years. the new coach would want new scouts and new players. (what bullcrap!!!!!)
- you need to identify the problem. our offense is top 5 and defense is bottom 5. You have to determine if you can fix this problem quickly and be successful, without major trauma to the team.
Bob Allen said -- so you are going to keep Gary and get a new defensive coordinator. Boob McNair hemmed and hawed but all but said he would do just that.
It's over guys. Kubiak will be back.

Yeah, Bob fears change. I wish he would have been asked how traumatic those changes were for KC and ATL. As if defense is the only problem this team has. I swear I picked up a hint of defiance in his tone on occasion too, just baffling.

Last year was the time to fire him. Even McNair said playoffs or bust and Gary busted. However instead of firing him he celebrated mediocrity with him and sold everybody on the "first winning season ever".
Now McNair is just riding this thing out until the wheels fall completely off.

Kubiak
　
Feelings after this season?
　
Frustration. Been tough. Lost a lot of tough games. Didnt lose them getting blown out or lack of effort but didnt make the plays. Proud of the effort today.
　
This had to be a taxing year.
　
Toughest one I been through. Been to Super Bowls and had other end of stick too. Team had problems but played through it and had our chances but didnt get over the hump.
　
What have you learned as a coach?
　
What I've already known. This is a tough ass business.
　
Think you'll be back?
　
I dont know. I said I want to enjoy coaching today and get some sleep tonight. We'll talk tomorrow.
　
　
　
McNair:
　
First question, will Kubiak be back?
　
We'll be talking tomorrow. Once that is done, we'll make our decisions.
　
You havent made up your mind?
　
Havent finished the process. We look at players, coaches, GM, scout. We started discussions with Gary but havent concluded.
　
Written in the paper that a decision has been made. Anything to Wade Phillips rumor?
　
Not my decision. Someone elses decision. We havent made a decision.
　
You dont know about any changes?
　
No. We dont make decisions until we analyze everything. When we conclude, I'll make a deicison.
　
This week?
　
Yes
　
As soon as tomorrow?
　
We have to look at coaches, players and personnel. We do those things one at a time. We'll get done with coaches first. Then players. Then personnel from what we've done with scouts and draft, etc.
　
When you say we, your GM under scrutiny too. Who is we?
　
Depends on what we're talking about. Talking about evaluatining team, we're talking to coaches with me and Cal. When looking at scouting, same thing there. Even people we are evalutationg, they participate.
　
Possible lockout have any effect?
　
No I dont think so. People ask about it and say what are you gonna do. You have to identify the problem. Didnt perform the way we wanted to. I'm upset about it. We have to find the basis or cause for the record. Until you do that, you cant solve it. You identify the problem. Find where you fall short and then find your options. You can replace everyone. Doing that is tramatic. New coaches wanna replace all the players and everyone. If there is no other recourse than to tear down everything, if you have to do that, you do it. If you can isolate it and not severe, you find what is needed.
　
Reading between the lines, Gary will be back.
　
We'll evaluate it. Dont need to be a football expert to determine on O, we'll be a top 5 teams. On D, a bottom 5 team. How can we solve this problem with success in shortest time? Thats how you deal with it.
　
We're disappointed. We wont quit.

He says if he replaces the HC, the new HC will want to "replace the players", therefore the team will be "set back two years". Hmmmm.
So, how is bringing in Wade Phillips as DC, who will want to switch to 3-4, NOT a two year set back?
IMO, if you're gonna have a two-year setback with the defense anyway . . .

This guy is so out of touch with reality. He apparently doesn't even follow the rest of the league by making stupid comments like that.
I really feel for the city of Houston, the fans, and even the players, especially guys like AJ who are all victims of this guy's idiocy. What a moron.

Well, I am glad I don't have to give a crap about the Texans for the next several months, if not longer. I can't wait to see my ticket renewal forms and if they are actually stupid enough to try and raise prices again.

You have to give Mcnair some credit here - He's willing to go against the vast majority here because he believes thats what gives him the best chance at success.
He could very well be right and if he is .... many of these detractors will say they approved of his decision even when we have it here in print that they didnt.
Then again he may be dead wrong ....
Lets all hope for the sake of the fans , players and the city that Bob is right and this team puts it together next season and goes on a deep playoff run.

If he is wrong and we have another year of suckitude, things are going to implode locally - especially if the available coaching options are much less attractive as this year's crop. Folks like Cowher, Gruden, probably Fisher are all here for the taking...but probably won't be next year.
