    every commentator would announce exactly what play the texans were gonna run. Kubiak was incredibly predictable.

    Welp you guys heard it, Pancakes think Munchak will be our O-line coach. Which means he probably won't be

    I at least hadnt read it, so thanks.

    I may be biased as I still appreciate both Munchak and Matthews, but if thats the way it went down it increases my level of respect for him. He took the fall instead of pushing the blame onto the other coaches.

    Man, those are some allstar coaches. I'm excited to see what the final roster will look like.

    These guys would bring an immediate end to the endless penalties.

    I think it had a lot to do with the ultra PC nature of the franchise. Kubiak would always give the same damn post game conference with the "they were battle fightin out there" bull. He just seemed to always play it safe. That's it... Playing it safe... That's Kubiak's legacy in a nutshell with his tenure as head coach of the Texans.

    Hmmm.

    Didn't Antonio Smith imply this? I guess if the Pats can't videotape they can pay insiders for info.

    Whitney Mercilus tweeted last night that he was excited about the future with Romeo Crennel.

    So now waiting for Munchak and then I'm personally hoping for another QB guru type to come in as OC.

    Isn't O'Brien considered a qb guru?
