    At the beginning of all this Watson stuff there was an article/tweet/whatever that said he didn’t have a problem with Easterby. I’ve also heard that from Lance Z. Not sure why that just gets ignored. Did it ever get refuted?

    Damn he just powers through punchline silence with a Larry the Cable Guy "I don't care who you are that's funny right there!"

    It's worse than the intentionally bad material manufactured for portraying a bad comedian in a movie, or Michael Scott doing stand-up. The regional fan impersonations are getting near Prison Mike and Ping depths. I blame his audiences- they have the audacity to politely chuckle when they can tell that Jack is saying something he thinks is funny? They created this monster.

    One of the board members is being investigated for... wait for it..fraud. And he is a 'preacher' also.

    Easterby is trying to turn this franchise into a wannabe Trump administration. Sniffing out leakers and firing anybody who isn’t loyal to him. The results will be equally as disastrous.

    He may not have a problem with him as a person... but could definitely have a problem with him being the head of everything, and thus the main problem is Cal's trust in JE.

    LOL ... Of course Belichick/Kraft would never let him run the organization to begin with.

    So funny hearing Belichick almost laugh when asked if Easterby was a personnel guy meanwhile serving as the Texans interim GM. Even funnier Cal saying we aren’t trying to be the Patriots South, that is abundantly clear.

    Tampa got Brady & Gronk from the Pats and we got Easterby & Caserio. Now the Pats are sitting at home, we're a dumpster fire, and Tampa's running away with the Super Bowl. There is no Patriots way - it was just Brady playing on a cheap contract. The Texans are all-time suckers.

    We could have signed Fournette for basically what we paid Hyde, instead of trading Hopkins for David Johnson.

    texting a parent of an employee would be considered grossly unprofessional in most work environments

    I wonder how common it is in pro sports

    How common is it to promote former preachers to executive Vice President of a team?

    Omar Khan has put the Steelers in great position for 2022 onwards.

    Cap guru has the most cap space (sure he has to sign Juju and co this year).

    But after offering a contract to Omar Khan, Easterby decides to go to Cal and hire his bud Nick Caserio. Geeeez.

    This is a very interesting article, that gets forgotten about.

    They had some truly cancerous/shady things going on over there. The question is, within the arc of the chiefs being a dumpster fire all the way to being Super Bowl champs, which spot on the arc are we on?

    My guess: We're in the beginning spot where you're a dumpster fire and everyone in the building doesn't even know it yet....Lol. Don't worry guys, we'll be winning the Super Bowl in 2028 with Arch Manning! #FeelingGreatFor2028

    Nope, he even thanked him when he signed his extension

    As far as public statements no single player has said anything negative about Easterby. Not defending Easterby and obviously the texans have made mistakes but Deshaun has not been clear about what his issues are with ownership. Adam Schefter said that things are "worse that you could imagine" and has yet to substantiate that statement with any tangible facts. Did Cal smash his woman? Russell Wilson put his nuts on the table and went on with Dan Patrick yesterday and voice his issues with the seahawks like a man. Deshaun doesn't owe us anything but it would be cool if he just came out and said why he wants out if for nothing else to put an end to the b**** ass Mike Florio articles
