What an incomprehensible decision. Absolutely terrible.
Is the next guy coming in going to come to a team that is close to being a powerhouse team? No. So why the **** are you getting rid of the guy who had the team at least mostly competitive and had a rookie qb looking decent despite having NOTHING?!

$8 million???
Now NC is going after the man he wanted all along. The news that these NE coaches were being approached likely forced the issue. NC simply had to make this move or risk losing his man to another team.

This guy didn’t even know how an up tempo offense helped mills in the second half of the titans game lol.

Doesn't matter. He had the team working enough coming out of the cancer that was the O'Brien Tyranny. The next coach is gonna get burned by the time we're good again, if that ever happens. And just ask Alex Smith how he feels about a revolving door of coaches and schemes ruining development.
Why would Pep want to stick around? For them to fire him within a year for Josh McCown? I don't know why any candidate who doesn't have a history with Caserio and/or Easterby would trust the Texans.

See, that's just the thing. This team doesn't have and never has had a scheme.

Exactly! The guy was way in over his head.

But this isn't why he was fired.

Culley turned out to be exactly what we thought he would be before he was hired. This is more of a reflection on the File Clerk's decision making than anything else. If you tell me he was a bridge coach, what in the hell is a bridge coach other than a very bad excuse for hiring a very bad HC?

He was mr.checkdown for so long and then the chiefs had enough of him and traded up for an unknown in Mahomes and look where the chiefs are now.

TK is gone now so you offer him the job. Just scattershooting. Hell if I'm Pep I don't come on last year. lol

It took 3 days to figure out what we all knew
It might be because when people mention hiring McDaniels they totally forget he had his own video taping scandal with the Broncos. You might be on to something.
I wonder how much Culley's statement that he wouldn't change his staff led to his firing?

Damn I was so wrong I sometimes forget what a dumpster fire this teams front office really is no matter how much the names change the practices remain the same.

Just about everyone on the list the File Clerk could've hired last year. Just sayin....

If Flores is the target, why did they let Culley do the presser, and twist in the wind like that? What a bunch of doosh nozzles! Flores was fired on Monday morning wasn't he?

The only thing that would surprise me is if they hired someone for HC that doesn't have strong ties to Easterby and Caserio.
What wouldn't surprise me is if Caserio knew before this season started who his next HC would be and Culley was never thought of as "the" guy.

Can't say I agree with it but also can't say I'm surprised. Glad to see Kelly is gone though so making lemonade there. I wouldn't be against Flores though I really hope it wouldn't be another attempt to appease Watson.
Its also possible that they actually didn't intend to fire Culley after one year but Flores being a surprise firing meant they changed their plans and contact him before they made a decision on Culley. Guess we'll know if they hire Flores. Of course its also possible that they just flipped a coin on whether to fire him or not. Neither scenario would surprise me.

Because the owners, Easterby, and Caserio have zero class.

Culley & Kelly were here to try to appease Watson. Watson is out... so Culley & Kelly are out.

Culley was destined to be fired at some point anyway, Kelly just plain needed firing. I'm twice as happy knowing Kelly won't be back as I am Culley.
At first glance I thought the Texans screwed Culley then I saw that he refused to make changes to the offensive (in more ways than one) staff, so he pretty much screwed himself. I completely understand wanting continuity with a young QB but this was an absolutely horrible offense in 2021.
I'm not upset but I am pretty surprised considering how we love to hang on to coaches long past their sell by date.
This move gets a "meh" from me.
I hope the new hire "wow"s me though.... in a good way... not the "wow"s I got when OB constantly seemed to fail his way to promotion.
