Head Coach Candidates

I don't want a young gun coach anymore.

If we're trading Watson and starting over, get someone older to establish a proper culture here.

Hire Caldwell or Lewis. Then you can get rid of them if the team emerges in a few years and you need someone to get them to the next step.

No point in wasting a hire of a great prospect only for him to be scapegoated when things don't work out.
 

Watson is angry because owner Cal McNair won’t fire Easterby, according to those familiar with the situation. McNair continues to support Easterby while Watson stews and Caserio interviews.

Unless Kansas City offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy changes his mind, he won’t be available for an interview for at least another week. The Chiefs beat Cleveland in the divisional round Sunday, and Bieniemy has said won’t agree to any more interviews as long as Kansas City is playing.


Caserio hopes to interview Bieniemy as soon as he’s available, but if the Chiefs reach a second consecutive Super Bowl, it’ll reduce the odds he’ll get that long-overdue opportunity to become a head coach after waiting so many years
 
I think Leslie Frazier has a real shot in Houston, and there’s an interesting offensive coordinator nameattached to his candidacy: Colts quarterbacks coach Marcus Brady. Brady’s very well-regarded in Indy and has an interesting resume, with much of hisprofessional career, both as a player and coach, spent in Canada.
 
SportsRadio610 is saying Bieniemy is being interviewed by the Texans today, so I guess that rule change, has changed things.

Lol. The NFL is giving us all the help we can get. They see the train wreck.

I think the NFL is also helping because it would like to see Bieniemy get hired because it will be good for the NFL to have another black head coach. (Don’t twist words or make it political)
 
They're negotiating and EB wants full control of the roster

I'm torn on that, for the sake of argument lets say they hire him. On one hand I tend to like HC having more control of their roster assuming they cut and play based on performance. Who better than the HC to really see who is playing their best. On the other hand I'm reluctant to give a guy who, on paper at least, is so much like OB in his resume and experience. We saw what happens when OB had full control I don't want anything even close to that again.

you can blame watson for that one
 
Nick Caserio didn't come to Houston to turn the roster over to the HC! Especially a first time HC. That would be a deal-breaker for me if I were NC.
Isn't the way it's supposed to work, if they're truly "aligned" is that the HC tells the GM that these are the type of players he needs to run his systems, then the GM goes and finds those players? I don't think it's the GM's responsibility to determine what players make the final 53. That's on the HC who's out there coaching these guys on a daily basis.

We are going to have to check with New England to see how they do it and get back with you.
 
Bieniemy right now:

If Easterby stays, he should have full control of that fun-fan thing they do with Fuddruckers during home games. You know, when the people dress up as a hamburger bun and have a race in the endzone.
