    Same as it ever was in Houston. What you posted was said year after year after year with the Oilers. Nothing has changed for professional football in Houston for decades and there's simply NO reason to believe that with this ownership possesses the competence to make the type of organizational changes necessary for success on the field because they simply don't have to do so. Cal & Co will make money no matter what their record is this season because the Texansheep will still support them no matter what. The ONLY way things will change is when fans stop showing up, stop buying the Texans merchandise and stop watching them on TV and that ain't about to happen so that is that. The only reason folks here are mad is because they care about winning football and when enough fans stop caring (as with the Oilers), NFL owners know they can always move their circus to another locale deperate for pro football.

    It might with the lack of picks and roster that OB has put together.

    Where does BoB rank in terms of All Time Worst Professional Coaches in Houston Sports history? I was born in 1982 so I can't speak for any coaches prior to the 90s but, just from the past 30 years, he's easily the worst coach imo. The past 30 years:

    Houston Rockets coaches:
    Chaney
    Rudy T
    JVG
    Adelman
    McHale
    JB
    MDA

    Houston Texans coaches:
    Capers
    Kubiak
    BoB

    Houston Astros managers:
    Howe
    Collins
    Dierker
    Jimy Williams
    Garner
    Cecil Cooper
    Brad Mills
    Bo Porter
    Hinch
    Baker

    Like he's definitely the worst Texans head coach (I could care less about Division champ banners). Cross comparing him to the NBA coaches, he's down there at the bottom with McHale and JB. Astros managers...worse than Porter?

    It's ultra depressing to think that the next regime is basically pre-doomed given what BOB has done.

    The recovery here is going to take 4+ years, because the next regime will have to probably go through the motions and get fired before the regime after that can actually start some forward momentum.

    I mean fans showing up with bags over their heads and fire Bill O’Brien signs is a big step.

    Things people need to ask BoB:

    #1: You've been saying you need to coach better for several years now. When do you plan to do so?
    #2: Given that it hasn't happened, what does it say about you? Are you capable of coaching any better?

    I'm out of the loop. What's happening on that day, besides the game against Detroit?

    Hyperbole, much? The situation is bad right now, but it can easily be fixed. Fire the coach/gm and bring in new people.

    Every time I come in here after a loss thinking maybe today is the day and they have finally kicked butt chin to the curb but I guess we can look forward to another day.

    This dumb mutha ****** is one of the luckiest assholes to ever walk the planet.

    He was born into wealth... his dad donated enough money to get him on the UT football team for 4 years.

    He has always worked for his father..... his parents were married and by all accounts had a great childhood.

    He grew up wanting to coach a football team.

    His daddy sold his company for Enron stock, then interestingly dumped it and bought a football team in the city they live in... a city that licked their collective asses for two decades.

    Cal is told by his daddy he will run the team someday.

    Cal's grandparents are still alive.... he will likely live well into his 90's.

    His wife is beautiful and supposedly never complains and thinks Cal is amazing.

    He now runs a football team and does a **** job but he still makes money and the stands without COVID are full.

    This ******* literally has had everything possible go his way other than the fact he looks like John McClain and a walrus had a love child.

    I can only imagine he has a 12 inch *** that pisses gold coins.
