A few reports stating the Texans players didn't want to sign earl thomas, so BOB backed off.

If that is true, it is actually worse than mommy McNair pulling rank. We can't tackle or cover, but our players, gm and coaches are ok with it.

Didn't we trade it for the biggest defense spreader in the NFL Cooks?

Did Cooks even have a catch today?


Nope! Dropped a fat goose egg for me in fantasy today


10 catches for 138 yards and no TD's in four games.

Surely you have a better option.

with 6 bench spots and 3 are PITT players, Fournette as my main flex headed to IR... I was left with Brandin Cooks, Preston Williams and Sony Michel to choose from

We do 3 WR, 2 RB, 1 TE and 2 Flex

Obviously it would be surprising for the McNairs to sell the team. What I do hope is that they are willing to consult with outside parties to get real feedback on the state of this team and its management (HC and GM). And I don't mean feedback from other owners!!

Miami owner has talked to them. Told them that BoB is an amazing franchise builder. They will be the proof.

It's worth remembering that when the Dom Capers era ended, Bob McNair brought in Dan Reeves to act as an outside consultant and assess the franchise. Maybe Cal can do the same...any competent NFL executive would look at the Texans and say what BOB has done is professional malpractice.

Exactly. Even then I would like a little more disinterested, because we ended up with Kubiak, who had clear connections to Reeves.

It's almost mind boggling how much resources BOB has put into the offense and it still looks this bad. By my count, the investment in the starting lineup includes 6 first rounders (2 for Watson, 2 for Tunsil, Fuller, Howard), 3 second round picks (Cooks, Martin, Sharping ), trading away D-Hop (Johnson), and $$$$ (Fulton, Watson (again), Tunsil (again), Johnson (again)). Literally every starter but TE had a very high acquisition price. That's a crazy amount of capital to spend on one side of the ball. And they still suck.

Don't forget the 3rd rounder for duke johnson, the 3rd round tackle we traded for Carlos Hyde, $$$$ for Martin's extension, $$$ to sign Cobb.

We also used a 3rd rounder on Akins, who I like, but a year later spent another 3rd rounder on Warring, who appears to be constructed from left over parts deemed too defective when constructing Coutee.

My biggest issue with the offense is that don't utilize it how it was built, I will give Weaver and the D a pass, given lack of focus on that side of the ball, but the offense should be used differently. I am ready for OB to be fired, this is just dumb that this team is at this point.

Don't forget we also have a ton of money invested in middle LB the least important part of defense these days. Not to mention those LB's can't seem to cover anyone and the run defense is crap. So yeah. However bad you think the Texans are right now, they are worse and going to continue to get worse. Everyone saw this coming except those in the organization. Deshaun will be 30 before they are relevant. It's sickening.

Need someone to invest in a billboard right across Reliant where we can add anti-BOB stats every week in giant red letters, sort of like in Zero Dark Thirty when Jessica Chastain keeps writing on the glass of her office how many days they'd have the Intel on Bin Laden's whereabouts but don't do jack squat about it.

Too bad a few of the Texans didn't mention that they didn't want to execute the most lopsided trade in NFL history.

I thought they'd have to get to 0-6 or 1-5... turns out 0-4 was bad enough.

Any word on the replacement? Someone already on staff I would guess. At least in the interim.

The Hopkins trade probably put him on some pretty thin ice.

So glad this happened. Not personally, I hate people losing their jobs but before he could attempt to trade assets or release players to try and save his job.
