    I'm definitely not. They fired Frank Bush.

    Maybe you are. I see the progress with the Texans. Keep the core of the defense, and get some more weapons on offense (especially QB) and this team should be a 2nd tier contender.

    Ah yes, Frank Bush, the worst defensive coordinator in the history of the game. Probably one of the best firings that ever happened.

    i'd like to see these teams left lose their qbs and have brian hoyer inserted in lieu. talk to me about how good they'd look then. 9-7 with hoyett! damn impressive. some teams go 7-9 with the next anointed GOAT =/

    ^ Both of these guys were apparently on the Giants.

    Not sure if that's a good thing or not.

    Two new coaches

    And good hires too.
    Sean Ryan, Ex giants WR coach and Larry Izzo, ex Giants ST coach are now in those respective roles with Houston.
    Both are quality hirings and should boost the standard of play.
    I am especially stoked at Izzo's signing.
    Izzo, who spent last five years helping coach Giants specials teams, is a terrific hire by Bill O'Brien. Very popular with Houston fans.

    Our ST's will not be last in the league for long.

    Izzo also got a game ball from BB for successfully taking a crap on the sidelines without getting caught lol

    Went to high school with Izzo. Have a lot of common friends though we never hung out together. I was bombarded with texts when they announced he was coming back.

    That's the end of my story.

    What's Jim Tomsula up to now? Would be a great hire IMO.
