    Wrong about what? I wanted O’BRIEN fired after Buffalo. The difference? I don’t whine about it because I have no control over it. More important things to worry about

    Yeah; I mean, at least the Clowney deal had circumstances (franchise tag/free agency + potential locker room/coaching issues). This Hopkins deal, though, is just bananas.

    And! Here's the thing: the *idea* of trading Hopkins - who is older, apparently wanting more money and was... a tick or 2 behind last year what we've been used to (fair?) - makes sense, especially given our lack of draft capital. I'm NOT defending *any* deal with Hopkins - but if you put him out there and someone offers you a Beckham-like deal........ it's highly viable. I don't think anyone would *love* the deal - but Hopkins for Arizona's 1st (#8) and 3rd (#72) +, say, Haason Reddick - which is the deal for Beckham - I think we could all, if not love/like, at least live with that deal.

    That he seems to have spite-traded Hopkins for - I mean, did he even get $.30 on the dollar for a 27-year old All-Pro?? - such a trash return then loops back to the Clowney deal as being less "circumstances" and more we have a flaming incompetent idiot running our organization.

    You keep (now) saying this. You admitted after the game you had an emotional reaction after the first half. Also, you wrote this after they came back to win:

    Here is your last post from the Bills/Texans game regarding O'Brien:

    How does BoB sleep at night knowing he just did the dumbest trade in recent history.

    His ego makes him oblivious to any sht decision

    Remember when we were all saying Bob McNair is a bad owner and Rick Smith is a horrible GM?

    Ahhhh, the good ol’ days!

    Anybody miss mediocre HC's/GM's?

    Sad fact is BOB's won more than those guys did.

    According to players on the Texans, a lot of guys on the team don’t want to be on the team anymore because it’s such a mess right now. A lot of people in the organization want Easterby gone, because he is sticking his nose in everyone’s business.

    Because in his deluded mind, this was a good deal and a good idea. I'm wondering if some noxious gas got released from his buttchin that caused temporary insanity.


    What really pisses me off is that, because of the current situation in the world, he doesn't have to explain himself. There won't be a press conference any time soon...likely not until AT LEAST after the draft.
