I did. In fact, I was surprised more people weren’t laughing and ******** on them. Lovie Smith was a terrible hire on its own merits. As I said...
Coaching this team, in this state, was not an opportunity. They were asked to take fire while mediocre white men hid behind them and cleaned up...
We knew Lovie was a bad head coach when he was hired. We also knew the Texans were a dumpster fire. And that’s why they hired him - so they could...
Every team that hires a WHC receives some degree of blowback. The Texans would have, as well. Now, let me turn on all caps to emphasize this next...
It wouldn't - in this scenario - be about Caserio's effectiveness, per se. It would be McNair ensuring his GM and head coach are on the same page....
Highly likely. But if Caserio is, indeed, interfering with the head coach... I don't have any issues with the new coach - assuming he's not a...
My guess - strictly a guess - is that McNair is going to ask the head coach if he can/wants to work with Caserio. If the answer is no, Caserio...
Reports are the Saints are asking for a 1 +: [MEDIA] While I agree with you, re: their mindset - I would never trade picks for a coach, and I...
That is such a terribly cynical perspective.
I was literally going to say the same thing. The league's problematic hiring practices are not solved by merely hiring Black coaches. Those Black...
The Texans should have aggressively hired a competent head coach, and made a commitment to that head coach, letting them start the process of...
The Texans were a good DC way from that team being very good in year 2 - and they absolutely would've been in the postseason as early as 2009.
The Texans' white owner, who hasn't earned a damn thing in his life, hired and paid a Black coach to take the fall for his own incompetence....
I both a) called out their bullshit at the time: [MEDIA] and b) was very critical of what a poor hire Smith was: [MEDIA]
Yes; traditionally, for teams that don't need a QB. The Texans need a QB. And the Bears don't. That gives Chicago *tremendous* leverage.
You're missing the point. Neither candidate was a good choice and that's what made them appealing to the Texans: they were sacrificial lambs. That...
That might very well be the right pick! The issue is that they gave up full control of this draft - not just 1.1 but pick #33, too, which has...
But if one of the net results of that incompetence is two Black head coaches being given the exact treatment that has long plagued NFL hiring...
They're projected to have the 7th most cap space, less than 3 playoff teams.
"Lame ducks" implies they knew they weren't going to be good, right? And not being good is the easiest path to finding a QB, which is obviously...
