What makes your opinion fact? Can you prove any of the above or is it your usual spouting bs?
Basically, the non-Kool-Aid variety.
I think what it all boils down to is I do more research, read a lot more, have a good memory, am an independent and critical thinker, do not engage in groupthink, following the herd and mob mentality. I try to get it right, I am objective, I do not have a bias, I do not engage in wishful thinking, hoping, wanting something to be true, and can recognize when someone is trying to blow smoke up my hiney.
1. Kubiak did have full control over all player personnel. There are enough interviews out there where he states such. Use your Google.
2. Kubiak did recommend Rick Smith to Bob McNair. There are media reports report so, if only you would take the time to research them. Again Google time.
3. Check out the Rappoport news reporting Texans management has too much say in player personnel and the draft.
4. Regarding Caserio's first year, his decisions are well documented:

4b.
FISCAL IRRESPONSIBILITY: Texans started 2021 season with 54 contracts and $6MM
OVER the cap.
If the Texans had made the following moves they would've been
$48MM UNDER the cap. They would not of had to resort to mortgaging the future to the tune of
OVER $35MM in contract restructuring, $37MM in Dead Cap in 2021 and would've added a 2nd rd draft pick.
B. McKinney | Release | | $7.00m |
D. Johnson | Release | | $6.90m |
Z. Fulton | Release | | $3.00m |
Du. Johnson | Release | | $5.15m |
B. Dunn | Release | | $3.25m |
B. Cooks | Trade | | $12.00m |
J. Watt | Release | | $17.50m |
Total Saved | | | $54.80m |
5. It doesn't take a psychiatrist or a psychologist to see that Caserio was a different happier person after Lovie was hired. Also noticeable was Nick's public messaging became less about Nick, I and Me and more about we, team and deference to Lovie. To be blunt Nick will no longer be in the press box with headphones. You don't have to have an IQ over 120 to understand what is happening here.
6. Was there any 2 horrible, terrible worse consecutive head coaching searches than Nick's in 2021 and 2022?
7. How many Belichick assistants have an abysmal record of failure after leaving NE?
8. Texans did in fact start 2022 with the fewest signed players on the roster.
9. Brian Gaine was fired the day after Jack Easterly returned from New England after spending the evening with Nick Caserio.
10. 48 hours after the Dolphins fired Flores, Caserio fired Culley.
11. After the Flores lawsuit, the Texans interview Josh McCown for HC three times.
12. After Jonathan Gannon withdrew his name from Texans HC consideration because he would have no say so in hiring his coaches, in less than 24 hours Lovie was hired as HC with complete control of hiring his coaches. He also demanded control over player personnel which was quite evident in the 2022 draft.
13. I said before Bill O'Brien would be an absolutely horrible hire before Bob McNair hired him. Some call this bs, I'll say I'm clairvoyant or just better informed.
14. I've also experienced 55 years of some very bad NFL ownership and management and have become pretty good at recognizing it when I see it.
Sorry you asked?
