    All so true. Caserio has done some nice things here, no doubt. But his timeline here is also littered with strategic missteps. I think it is a huge mistake by the Texans org to just ride on with Caserio. But the org seems to just be sleepwalking on this.

    The Texans are not a nimble organization. Never have been. For an organization to have so few GMs over 25 years and to have never won anything of circumstance is telling. They value relationships over urgency. That's fine when you are the Steelers and have won 5 super bowls.

    I can see the Texans going for a 2nd tier free agent RB. Not Walker or Hall, but more so somebody like Rico Dowdle.

    I think teams paid attention to Dowdle this year = probably gets a better than average deal ($5M AAV)

    I think Tyler Allgeier makes a LOT of sense for Texans (somebody else already posted that)

    Just wait till we get the inevitable they want a contract extension and the team wants to wait to see how he does next season. Then holdouts, months of speculation, etc.

    It would have been worth it if he beat his former organization New England... but he failed to. Nothing has changed from Texans vs Patriots divisional game from when we had Schaub until now with CJ. Same results just different excuses. Tired of the BS.

    Well the the Texans have some kind of thing for being the 4th or 5th seed they can never get a seed where they host the divisional round. They keep having to go to places where the weather is an issue. Not an excuse but for a team that plays indoors they need to get a higher seed.

    Go get 'em.... watched some Panthers' games at the end of the season just to see him in action. He held up well.

    This Pats team was so extremely beatable. All you had to do was not your losing your freaking mind and repeatedly gift them the ball.

    I've been in favor of cutting his sorry ass since the beginning of the season.

    He can be a serviceable backup, but yeah... not in love with him as the starting C

    yeah and then things will get ugly. Hopefully it doesn’t come down to this but I think he and his team will ask for that contract. No person in their right mind should give him the extension
