You mean the guy with the “no trade clause” in his contract that could easily muck up the works just because and say he only wants to go to one team and that team completely low ball on their offer because they know Deshaun has the Texans by the balls? That guy?
He has no one by the balls except himself. Texans could literally choose to sit him for the life of his contract. Get over your love affair with that piece of crap.
Very interesting. I never thought to dive into how many QBs on rookie deals have made SB appearances over the last decade. Looking at QBs that have played in the SB, starting from 2011: Rodgers Roethlisberger E. Manning P. Manning Brady *Flacco (rookie deal) *Kaepernick (rookie deal) *Wilson (rookie deal) Newton (first year after extension) Matt Ryan Nick Foles *Jared Goff (rookie deal) Garoppolo *Mahomes (rookie deal, extension by his second appearance) So in 11 SB matchups, almost half had QBs who were on rookie deals, three of which (Flacco, Wilson, Mahomes) stayed as franchise, long term QBs. Flacco vs Kaepernick SB both QBs were on rookie deals.
All coach speak hopefully And technically Texans still have Culley for now and haven’t put a interview request for McDaniels yet
Kind of weird that McDaniels hasn’t received a interview yet…almost like other teams and executives know he has a potential job already locked up….
I'm still not sure why so many of you are pining for yet another Ex-Pat when the history is just littered with terrible head coaches...including the one that put the Texans in the position they're in now. What gives y'all the confidence that there will finally be one that isn't bad at being a head coach?
Josh McDaniels is just different…he isn’t one of these guys that coached in New England couple of years and now thinks he’s the next belichick. He’s been in New England for a total of 15+ years. Just like Caserio who was in New England for 20 years these guys help set the culture in New England along with belichick to some degree. Also he is a young brilliant offensive mind and has a real specialty to his coaching ability not that just ran a certain side of the ball for New England now thinks they are some kind of offensive or defensive specialist McDaniels is a real specialist. And while he did have the greatest QB of all time. He also made superstars out of regular ordinary guys and always had the patriots playing great offense and consistently making chicken salad out of chicken $h?! Granted he had the GOAT at QB. His time in Denver he was the youngest coach ever hired in NFL history and he just wasn’t ready yet..and still won to some degree. Now he’s way more seasoned and way more prepared to lead his own team. And his offenses are very adaptable to his personal he can play the slow game they can run no huddle they can be a running team or a pass heavy team can run RPOs with a mobile QB or a pocket passing QB and still be successful. He’s more mature now and here in Houston he would be able to lean on Caserio and Easterby for any help or guidance he has a deep history with both guys.
Yeah, I want zero part of Watson moving forward. If bringing in Flores in any way encourages Caserio and Cal to reconsider moving on from Watson or Watson to reconsider leaving, then I do not want Flores in Houston. I would rather be a dumpster fire for the next five years with Culley and Mills than a contender with Watson and Flores.
Absolutely. Don't take this as feeling sorry for the guy, I absolutely do not. But this is in response to hoping they keep Culley around in some capacity. If I were him and they canned me, I'd be on the first flight out of town. Dude has seemingly no idea where he stands, that's not a good look for any franchise, let alone one that has had PR nightmare after another for while now.
If a better coaching candidate gives us the green light then it is what it is. The Texans have given him a opportunity to live out his dream when no other team even wanted to make him a coordinator.
The Texans didn't decline coaching the Senior Bowl because Culley may not have a Pep or Kelly. And if they did, further reason to burn NRG down.
I thought so too but if he is fired, he gets the whole contract. Will come back home to Tennessee and gets to coach my kids high school football team. Not a bad deal
“He’s just different! I promise he’s different than the rest!” LOL Not very convincing. Denver: 11-17, fired during 2nd season Offensive ranks (without Brady and/or Belichick) Year | Team | Yards | Points 2008 | Patriots OC | 5 | 8 2009 | Broncos HC | 15 | 20 2010 | Broncos HC | 13 | 19 2011 | Rams OC | 31 | 32 2020 | Patriots OC | 27 | 27 2021 | Patriots OC | 15 | 6 (Didn’t even mention him accepting and flaking on the Colts) Bill O'Brien: 52-48 (7 years; 6 years, 4 games to be specific; 2-4 playoffs; Texans 2014-2020; Alabama OC in 2021) Brian Flores: 24-25 (3 years) Charlie Weis: 41-49 (8 years; Notre Dame HC 2005/‘06/‘07/‘08/‘09; Kansas HC 2012/‘13/‘14) Eric Mangini: 33-47 (5 years; Jets ‘06/‘07/‘08; Browns ‘09/‘10; 0-1 playoffs; 49ers assistant in ‘13/‘14/‘15) Josh McDaniels: 11-17 (2 years; 1 year, 12 games to be specific; Rams OC in 2011; Patriots OC since 2012) Romeo Crennel: 32-63 (7 years; 5 full years, 2 interim years in 2011(KC) and 2020(HOU); Browns ‘05/‘06/‘07/‘08; Chiefs ‘12; Chiefs DC 2010/11; Texans DC 2014/‘15/‘16’/‘18/‘19) Matt Patricia: 13-29-1 (3 years; 2 years, 11 games to be specific; Lions ‘18/‘19/‘20; Patriots assistant 2021) Joe Judge: 10-23 (2 years) “I swear he’ll be different!” “I swear he won’t try to be Bill Belichick!” “I swear he won’t try to copy the “Patriot Way!”” “I swear he won’t bring his Patriots buddies with him!” “But those guys didn’t have Jack Easterby and Nick Caserio to lean on!” William Stephen Belichick and Thomas Edward Patrick Brady Jr. aren’t walking through that door. Bob wanted to be the Steelers/Steelers continuity (“We don’t fire coaches. Give them time.”) Cal wants to be Patriots South. Too bad you’re neither. SAY NO TO JOSH MCDANIELS, JEROD MAYO, THE “PATRIOT WAY”, “PATRIOTS SOUTH”!
Joe Judge was just fired. Joe Judge, Brian Flores, Josh McDaniels, Matt Patricia, Billy O’Brien…plenty of ex-Patriots rejects they can hire!
