    We aren't getting Columbia Blue but we're getting a lighter "H-Town Blue"

    Caserio has always said, and no one with any direct ties has ever disputed, that's he a collaborative GM. The people who have the best sources in the build all back it up.

    I've had serious issues with some of the decisions made, but I've always pushed back on some of the weird criticisms of Caserio like he's a bad boss, a dictator, micromanages people to death, etc. Weird online ideas about who he is when everyone associated with him or that has good sources says he's a really good guy, easy to work with, etc.

    For good or bad - DeMeco Ryans has the power and influence in the Texans organization.

    If you rooted for the correct Texas college team, you'd know.

    Calais Campbell is a guy I'd be interested in if it's a low contract as a reserve.

    This - this is how it was in New England with him as well. He is not someone that is a task master or an overlord. I am not in Houston, but outside of how some of the past coaching hires have been handled, I am not sure why there would be a lot of criticism of him.

    I do know that Caserio and Ryans both wanted CJ Stroud last year and were involved in the Anderson situation.

    I have never heard of any ego issues with Caserio - only that Ryans has a huge say in personnel decisions and the draft.

    The criticisms about decisions made were valid as were a lot of draft questions.

    But there was a lot of talk that Demeco would oust Caserio because he couldn't handle working with an egomaniac like Caserio. A lot of weird stuff that stemmed from Caserio being on a headset during the games. STUFF HE DID IN NEW ENGLAND lol.

    From a personality perspective, I have no issues with Caserio. People don't like his sportsradio interviews and they don't like the way he handled two bad coaching hires and that he wasn't the GM that Deshaun wanted.

    I doubt you've watched that movie near as many times as me, so I get it. That quote popped in my head right away when I read that tweet. It's a chick flick. Name a woman who didn't like it and I'd ask you if she wears a jock strap. :p
