Haha BOB was yelling at Easterby, "what the hell happened Jack?

 

[TheKDog]

Oh boy, Jack getting fired

 

[steelbtexan]

Jack carries more clout than BOB.

 

[powda]

Jack carries more clout than BOB.

Yup. Hes not going anywhere. Infact, he may out last OB. Dude is like Malaysian herpes.

 

[TheKDog]

Laughable.

Jack doesn't know anything.

I mean neither does OBrien but at least he can go through the checklist

 

[powda]

Laughable

Wheres the dislike option on this?

 

[TheKDog]

Still works for me

Admit Easterby has burrowed his way in like a tick at least.

Yeah but not over O'Brien right? Will easterby be hiring the next coach?

 

[powda]

Cal is the one making decisions if and when he grows the balls to do it. I have no idea what is reasonable with this bunch of clowns.

 

[CWTexansFan]

Nope, it'll be the new gm that the new owner will hire who will pick the next head coach.

New owner as in someone other then cal?

 

[pirbroke]

That is a raw deal from lions to back out at last second, Texans could have had another less favorable deal but except-able deal but now can’t do either. Pretty BS move IMO.

Yep,

I dislike ignorance.

 

[Mollywhopper]

OB can suck a bag of wrenches as far as I'm concerned.. but as far as 'blow outs' go that was honestly pretty tame.. but that's also how reputations work, so..

 

[chicagotexan2]

As long as there are cheesy inspirational quotes to tweet, Easterby’sjob is secure.

 

[Lucky]

Will easterby be hiring the next coach?

He will setup the seach committee and make suggestions to Cal.

Nope, it'll be the new gm that the new owner will hire who will pick the next head coach.

Easterby will also setup the seach committee for the next GM, and be above him in the org chart. A not quite as flat organization.

 

[Lucky]

Jack doesn't know anything.

And look how far that's gotten him.

 

[nut]

And look how far that's gotten him.

Didn't Easterby start as the team chaplain/preacher?

 

[Lucky]

Didn't Easterby start as the team chaplain/preacher?

Yes, in KC.

 

[AcresHomesTexan]

Bill O'Brien laughed when he was asked about being shown walking off on the broadcast. He said he and Jack Easterby were just "messing around on zoom."

Yes, it might be the only way that it happens.

Of course, I could be totally wrong.

Kdog, why did you dislike this?
According to my title, we are BFFs.

 

[TheKDog]

And look how far that's gotten him.

I wonder what jobs obrien and Easterby will get next.

Good chance it's their last nfl jobs considering they've wrecked the place.

Who would want to hire them and risk getting in a power struggle?

 

[TheKDog]

I can't imagine a coach wanting to work for this character coach

It's a NFL HC job. The ultimate coaching gig.

I don't see anyone who is really good taking a bad job. Maybe some retread

What a liar. Good grief.

 

[Earl34]

Yup. Hes not going anywhere. Infact, he may out last OB. Dude is like Malaysian herpes.

I wonder how many people in the Chiefs and Patriots organization who say, "Jack Easterby? What are they doing?"

 

[steelbtexan]

Exactly,

His hate makes him not be able to look at the bigger picture.

 

[corytx8]

At least the lions did us a favor with the Texans trade reputation. Lol

The GM has never been involved with hiring the HC in Houston.

That's why I included a new owner in my scenario.

This is based on supposition by 'pancakes McClain'

Are we now taking his thoughts as gospel?

From what I saw, I thought he was pissed at the communication system on the one phone he pointed at

Um, maybe this is supposition on my part ,but I assume he was pissed at the person on the other side of the phone and not the phone itself.

Could have been either

You've gotta be kidding.

Pushing this guys buttons is going to become a sport among executives.

Big freaking deal the Lions backed out - have some damn composure wow embarrassing.

And on national tv. But again, maybe it wasn't the lions. Maybe it was just that damn phone.

Why?

He must have Boost mobile or Cricket.

 

[powda]

Why?

Jb I like you, but I'm not following your train of thought in this thread or the draft grade thread.

 

[TheKDog]

Did he tell the Lions "you suck too"?

I would like to know too. Seems by not trading with the Lions, it worked out for the Texans.
