They were trying to hire Caserio long before Easterby was here (Bob McNair originally tried to hire him). Throw enough money around and it was just a matter of time. Cal thought he could cheat the system so he hired a two-bit con man to do it. #fail
You can continue to run with your Easterby- loving narrative. The rest of us just point and laugh. Nobody cares about Easterby.
Couldn’t have been no earlier than 2018 b/c Smith was still here in 2017…Easterby arrived in 2019. Regardless, We can say it was “inevitable” that NC would be here b/c they had been courting him for a while before Easterby got here…….. but he wasn’t here……despite all the money being thrown around….Mind you BoB was also a guy connected to NC as well & im sure had tried to lure NC as well….however he didnt officially arrive until after Easterby was brought in and we know he played a pivotal role in that…make of that what you will.
So at the end of the day i just think folks are trying too hard to try to link the guy to everything bad that has been going on with this franchise….as if to say the Texans were a model organization before he arrived. We all know thats not true. What’s the saying around here? The Texans are a marketing company with a football division? Thats about as accurate a statement as any pre-easterby.
the truth is the biggest mess that actually did the most damage & caused the most dysfunction was with DW4…& that had next to nothing to do with Easterby.
Hell just yesterday I’m listening to 790 and they’re consumed with “why” he was all of a sudden let go of now…….like there just had to be something he did that finally got him canned…and Wex surprised me by giving a well-reasoned take on the matter…but its like, what, each party couldn’t have just agreed to move on?
its ok to dislike the guy for whatever reason, but acknowledge that he may also have done some good.
