Lance and Charlie on 610 huh?
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have fired their special teams coach Bob Ligashesky, according to the Tampa Bay Times. Ligashesky's special teams unit was rather dismal all-around. Football Outsiders ranked them 28th in the NFL overall, and docked them specifically for kick returns and punt coverage teams. The Bucs' average kickoff return came to just 20.3 yards, which was ranked 30th in the NFL...
Universally disliked everywhere he's been.
We seriously are keeping Marciano? Seriously?!?
I think we're hoping that Marciano + Ligashevsky = 1 moderately decent ST coach.

This is his SEVENTH stop in nine years....How did he do at his previous stings before the Bucs?
thanks for the heads up...I guess.

...and we're hiring this nomad, why???
When it was evident to everyone on the planet that Richard Smith and then Frank Bush weren't getting the job done, Kubiak didn't fire them. He waited. According to reports, he was told he had to fire Frank Bush or be fired. Loyalty can be a good trait, but not when it blinds you to a person's shortcomings.
There has got to be more to this blind allegiance and loyalty than we see as fans.
By all accounts, Joe Marciano is a nice guy and a stand up dude.
You know who else was a nice guy and a stand up dude? Fred Rogers (RIP), of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood. And I never saw any NFL team give him a shot as a coach because he was a nice guy and a stand up dude.
There has got to be more to this blind allegiance and loyalty than we see as fans. It just doesn't make sense to not hold the coach of the worst special teams unit in the NFL accountable.
I agree! However, Mr. Rogers was a SEAL in real life, so we probably could have used him!
I wish that were true, because it would make him an even bigger badass than he already was (RIP). It's urban legend however.

What I don't get is how the team can look at past Texans, such as Jacoby Jones and Trindon Holliday, doing so well on other teams and not think it is anything but the coaching that is the problem.
This is probably why Jacoby Jones just never could get it together here. Jacoby was a challenge for Gary. Then Jacoby goes to Baltimore, and all of a sudden he's making all these clutch catches in big games...

Ligashesky making special teams changes
Bob Ligashesky has already started making changes in his new role as special teams coordinator, according to interim head coach Wade Phillips.
We started that today as a matter of fact. Hes got some different ideas, Phillips said. When you get new coaches in, youre going to get different ideas. Weve got some different ways of doing things, different ideas. Not to take away from what Joe (Marciano) did, what a great career here.
On Friday, Joe Marciano was relieved of his duties as the only special teams coordinator in Texans franchise history, just hours after the press conference announcing Gary Kubiaks termination. Ligashesky, who joined the Texans coaching staff in March 2013, was subsequently promoted from special teams assistant.
