Why would he sit out? He is not a free agent until 2018. He makes about $2.5 mill this year and $8 mill next year?
Shhh.
He's on a roll.
My gut tells me that cardinals game will be here and Seattle game away.. for some reason the last time the Texans were to play Seattle there was some weird rule and instead of the Texans playing away they played home.. it could have been on Seattle end that had the conflict. Can't remember
You are right, we have Arizona at home, it's LA on the road
The NFL adjusted the scheduling so that teams wouldn't have to make 2 west coast trips in the same year.bilbobag said:

You sure about that? Maybe that screws up what the website we use to plan our trips has online. LA used to be STL so that may affect what is in there if what you say is true. Not sure how we can play NFC West without two west coast road trips though
The Rams move may have put a stop to that. But that scenario did exist before. When they play the AFC West, it's set up in that fashion.Pahdz said:

I'm assuming or playoff game is going to be the Saturday 330 game, correct?
That spot is usually reserved for the worst playoff game, which is almost certainly our game.
Is there also a secret rule that will keep us out of that spot for the 2nd straight year?

That's my assumption as well, our offense is not what I would call "exciting" for the casual fan
That spot is reserved for the game that is likely to get the lowest TV ratings. If the current standings hold, 2 of the WC week matchups involve teams w/national followings (Packers, Steelers) and another would involve a NY team. I think it's a given that the Texans will be in the late afternoon slot on Saturday.
Texans would be stupid to part with O'Brien at this point in time.
Our front office is so stupid
This happened last year and OB was going to Mayland.. Texans would be absolutely dumb to let go OB go. However, like I said before, McNair wasn't happy about the benching of Brock.
Also if OB goes, which I highly doubt, Rick would be safe a couple of more years.. If anyone should be reassigned or let go, it would be Rick.
On another note, key personnel to watch is Vrabel and Crenell..

I'd take OB in College Station in a heartbeat
So how would OB be the hottest coach on the market yet we all hate him so much?

It really is crazy that Smith is the safest one of the bunch.
As far as Vrabel and Crenell go, is it expected that Crenell will retire and Vrabel take over? Or are they looking to move on?

He's upset with the Brock benching? McNair is a moron, how in the world did he get rich?
McNair is running the organization into the ground.
Sell them to me, I'll bring the Oilers name back
It's going to be one and done in the playoffs again. I'm expecting this.
Rick Smith must suck a mean dick. To still have his job for so many years and not doing crap is unreal in this day and age. Especially with the rumors of McNair possibly moving on from BoB
McNair and Smith got too close personally and professionally. Smith is a politician who worked his way into tenure. There should be some separation there. Even how they watch games shoulder to shoulder with matching binoculars is not a good look. The whole nine yards.
Bill O'Brien (an offensive guy) has not exactly turned the offense into an unstoppable force but I would side with O'Brien 99% of the time against this management team. Even with faults, he has more football credibility.

O'Brien took over a last place team that still doesn't have a QB and yet has had a winning record each year. He's not infallible but he's done a good job overall IMO.
I wonder whose call it was to not draft Carr when they had the chance.
McGloin had been pounded into the ground twice in succession, hit his throwing hand on a helmet and doesn't look like he can raise his arm. Raiders are about to be one QB deeper than the Texans next week (assuming KC wins).

Come on... The fan base would have damn near burnt down NRG had a Carr been drafted as the Texans franchise QB.

As a first round pick? I'd agree. But not as a 2nd round.
So whoever gets the Raiders in the playoffs might be facing Connor Cook. McGloin just went down with a shoulder injury.
Texans are still S.O.L. if the offense can't score more than 10 points.
True. A first round win would also mean a date with the Patriots in New England.
Prepare your anus.

An early 2nd rounder (which is what Carr was), there's an understanding you are drafting someone and giving them time and rope to be the franchise qb at some point. That's a big investment and fans are smart enough to get that.
Fan reaction would have been really bad at the Texans drafting another Carr as anything other than a day 3 pick.
Wild Card Weekend
Texans vs. Raiders
Savage Tom (maybe) vs. Connor Cook
