This was a hard decision for OB but one that had to be done. The mutually agreed is out of respect for Godsey.

Btw, John Was a little to the party on breaking this news story.

Any chance the Texans make a play for Chip here or is he too far down the road with the Jags?

BOB admits he split play calling duties with Godsey, so who made the decent play calls and who made the horrendous calls?

He was the QB coach too. OB only called plays for one game I believe

any other coaching rumors? Larry Izzo out? Are we re-signing Crennel?

They have people lined up for the OC job and QB coach job. Potential to hire two new coaches

What's your gut say on a potential timeline of Asswater leaving if they do decide to go that route

Do those potential hires have clauses saying they won't come if they have to coach Osweiler?

Seriously, was it Osweiler's fault or Godsey's? Osweiler's performance under a different OC/QB coach will answer that question.

Combination of both, but you have to consider that Osweiler's arrival caused us to drop from 19th to 29th in total offense in 2015 and 2016, respectively
oh no

a $72 million deal to downgrade from Hoyer/Mallett/Yates

Thanks!

If there's no cap savings for 18-19 by releasing Brock now, it makes very little sense to release him this offseason. Let him compete for the job. If he doesn't get it, you at least have a decent (though expensive) backup QB for 17-18.

Would you trade JJ Watt for Jimmy G & a first?

Just another matt cassell love fest because of the logo on his helmet and qb he backs up

didn't Brian Hoyer and Ryan Mallett also back up the same guy and come from the same system?

I didn't say I would. It was a topic I saw on twitter.

It makes some sense. It would take another big swing at solving the QB issue, it frees up cap space to sign guys like Bouye, and it gives us a 2nd first round pick. All huge deals. It also prevents another potential problem of the defense not gelling with JJ returning. How much better can our defense get with JJ back? On paper, we should be all time great, but it never seems to work out that way.

Just an interesting topic, I thought.

It's really not that interesting. A backup QB and a late first round pick is absurdly low for Watt. And we'd only free up $4.5M in cap space for 2017 according to overthecap.com.

The only way it'd even remotely make sense is if Jimmy G is the second coming of Aaron Rodgers, but if he was, New England wouldn't trade him. They'd push out Brady the same way Favre got pushed out.

In any case, there is no way we would trade JJ, nor should we. But if you want to throw out hypotheticals, it'd need to be a huge bounty in return.

No good to great QB will ever be traded for another non-QB, even JJ Watt. The point would be is that he could be that guy and we'd be giving up the greatest defender of all time / a redundant, injured player in the middle of a giant contract.

You don't trade the best defender in the league and the heart of the organization... Even if they threw in a beejay from Kate Upton... I would stop being a Texans fan.

Can we trade Rick Smith for a couple footballs or maybe bits of string?

That would be an insult to those bits of string

You are worried how the 3 time NFL defensive player of the year and heart and some of the team will gel with the current defense?

Did you see Clowney Mercilus & Watt playing great together before?

Clowney was still adjusting to the NFL/defense this season, as evidenced by his upward trend over the season

So sick of going after career backups/over the hill guys.......

Schaub (This one is different because he played well, but could never win any big games)
Mallet
Hoyer
Weeden
Fitz
Osweiler



No desire to add another in Garoppolo especially if it means giving up Watt. Especially on the heels of an injury ridden season in which we paid for his recovery and PT.

Until Clowney wins some DPOY awards, Watt isn't the one who's redundant. Trading Watt is asinine.
