Thanks for your support!
3 years with 10 wins or less will demand it. Pretty sure Cal knows that Caserio is not the GM that O'Brien and Easterby told Cal he would be. I think Cal has figured out that Caserio is pretty much like O'Brien, Easterby, and all of those other Belichick file clerks and facilitators that have made a mess of the NFL.
Do you remember when Lurie 1st took over as owner? Do you remember Andy last years and the post superbowl stuff with Pederson and even Chip Kelly fiasco, There have been gms navigate this kind of dysfunction and still do great things early. Cry me a river.
You telling me a team winning 3 games got talent, but one winning 4 don't? Off the top, you can't even guess the qbs and wrs before McNabb. The won 3 games and and ws terrible. Yall don't remember Lurie when he 1st bought the team? What they did was identify the coach and the coach identified the qb in that order. Lets not forget, Andy was never a oc either under holmgren, he was the qb coach.
So who is the future hall of fame coach the Texans can hire?
Andy wasn't a hall of fame coach when he left GB. In fact, most didn't even know who he was because he was the qb coach, not the oc. That was Sherman Lewis. How about this, lets stop hiring 63 yr old coaches back to back. What is the Jets record and why? I guess the Jets had alot of talent too, huh? Texans are the only team with 2 bridge coaches in 2 years.
Who were the Jets coaches before Saleh? How many bridge coaches did they go through? Browns? Dolphins? Titans before Vrabel? Just admit it, you don't like Caserio and as long as he is the Texans GM you will find fault regardless of how the team does.
The Jets had Gase for 2yrs if I remember and Bowles for like 5. I think Ryan was there 5 years also. Guess what all those guys had in common? None were in their 60s and all got at least 2 years, but most got 5. Part of my point is when you keep changing coaches, you keep changes systems, you keep changing players and it sets your team back. See the Browns when they were turning coaches and systems over. Look at any team that has a high front office turnover.
Jets are on their 5th HC since 2006 and only Ryan has won any playoff games. Yes I get that Culley never should have been hired, or Lovie either. But blame the first on Watson and McNair and the second on McNair. Neither were NC picks
You're guessing about where a qb lands in a particular draft. Remember Hackenburg and Barkley?
Or even last year... how many were projected to be in first round?
When will you face reality? Smith never worked for Cal and Gaine never had a chance to make any decisions.
Fields and Lawrence were thought of as 1st rd picks. Lance was an unknown even though he had a great year before covid and had great physical tools. Wilson became the mormon Mahomes after pro days and such. I brought up Hackenburg and Barkley becuase people were talking about waiting for them because of their early success, but as they played more,their flaws got bigger and bigger. Neither were drafted high,neither did anything in the nfl. You evaluate every qb based that year and if you can get him. No gm I've ever spoken to at the senior bowl ever said they pass on a franchise graded qb because the following year there might be another one. If the scouts and gm grade a qb as a difference making, franchise altering qb, they're trained not to pass him regardless of what else is there or who is in the next years class.
So why did you quote me?
Coaching is definitely debatable but there's just no way you can seriously blame the state of the roster on Caserio at this point. His first year we had no cap and barely any draft capital and his second year cap space wasn't much better and we aren't even through 1 year of his first real draft. Absolutely no way you can make any judgement off that.
Off track is what we do.
Why did it look off the rails to you?
Why’s that? I thought you were happy with Mills, straight from Pep’s circle of influence.
Flores may have been his first choice, I don't believe McCown was at all. You don't know who he may have contacted to see if they had any interest in becoming Houston's HC
Coaching impacts a roster as much as having a cap. Coaching help guys overachieve and get better through the season, especially young players. Who have you seen get better as the season has prolonged? Pierce and I can say Nico seemed to get better. Last year, who got better as young players? I forgot, they had the 2nd oldest roster in the nfl. The floor was closer to the ceiling. Pitre looks like he's hustling backwards and Stingley looks avg so far. That's coaching and it has 0 to do with cap space. I didn't say Caserio is doing a bad job, he looks avg and a non leader because of his hiring. When guys young players are coached up, the create cheap labor and outperform their draft status. Again, its coaching.
I'm still trying to understand getting 3 interviews and trying ro learn the Texans. Isn't safe to assume, listening to Caserio talk that he's not going to jump into something without knowing all the dynamics? He doesn't seem like a risk taker when he could've stayed in the comfy confines of of NE. I'm pretty sure he knew everything he needed to know about the roster.
How could he have known the coaches that were on staff when he was hired? I don't understand your first sentence
Did Gannon get 3 interviews?
Not at all.
Some people expect an all-pro at every position and miracles to happen daily. Sh!t doesn't stink and opinions are more factual than truth
Shocking post of the night.
Caserio's hands were figuratively tied on this HC hunt. Cal wanted to bring back Lovie, and for some reason, was sold on Pep, so any new HC prospect had to agree to keep Lovie and Pep. When potential candidates found out about that, they weren't very excited about interviewing with the Texans. Since the candidates weren't allowed to bring in their own guys, Caserio's HC hunt dried up. Add in the lawsuit, Cal made the call to hire Lovie.
You see where he has Stroud?
