    A a life long Houston sports fan that has generally despised the Texans, I thought they did very well last night.  - Brand new coaching staff gets their no doubt starting QB for the next 4+ years

    So they probably told Lovie before the game, and he goes rogue. Perfect execution there Texans.

I would have put better odds on my dog getting a calculus problem right than on the Texans getting this hire right, but damn, they sure did it.

Welcome home, DeMeco!

Hearing DeMeco’s statement about the job on 610 fired me up for this hire.

”my dream job”

Cal on 610 in about 8 minutes.

All that shithead should say is “I will never be around and just show up 8 times a year and go directly to the owners box.”

Not very exciting. Hoping for a more experienced OC.

Are there any who are currently unemployed?

A real head coach. 

Easterby gone. 

Is it safe to care about this forsaken franchise again?

Troy Walters was OC at UCF the year they went 13-0. Then he went to Nebraska as OC where, you guessed it, Frank Stallone.

Awesome hire

Still won't root for em

In no particular order, a summary of all the ‘great’ moves the franchise ever made:

Draft Dre

Hire Kubiak

Draft Watt

Hire Ryans

 

A sad & short list. But, better days ahead. Great fucking hire.

You forgot Shitcan Easterby….

EDIT - posted before I saw the 5 responses before mine lol.

As far as an OC, I don’t know that we’re going to find an up-and-coming current play caller who’s going to take a lateral move vs a head job of their own. It’s pretty much a young position coach vs a fired-7-times retread…

Denver tried to piss on our parade
 

Denver and Payton deserve each other.

In three years DeMeco will be looked at as a winning coach that turned around the franchise and ignited the city.

Payton will be hitting the bricks.

Maybe someone like Bienemy who, even though has the title of OC, works for an offensive HC that does the play calling and is fully in charge of the scheme and gets all the credit. Bienemy got exactly zero HC interviews during this year’s cycle. He, or someone like him, might wants to try and get his own sunshine to help him make that leap.

Too soon, man.

I'd rather it be him form th 49ers staff than Brian Griese as OC, as I've seen on Twitter.

IT’S OFFICIAL!!! Next to drafting Deshaun, this is the best move this franchise has ever made. Yes I know how it ended with Deshaun but at the time he was drafted we were all ecstatic.

Awesome news !!! 💥💥💥

Such a great hire! Congrats! Getting the HC right is half the battle. Most fans of NFL teams aren’t happy with their owners but having a competent GM and a terrific head coach puts the team in a great place. Now have to kill it in the draft and in FA. 
 

Not sure where to go at QB but my favorite in the draft would be Will Levis. To me he’s pretty pro-ready. He’s gotta get better on the INTs. Not saying the obvious picks Stroud and Young can’t be awesome  as well but that’s who I’d target in the draft. Then go for some weapons. Rojo would be awesome to have. This isn’t a deep WR draft…unfortunately.

Times have changed... Bienemy has too much shit in his past.

Plus, he’s interviewed with at least half or possibly more of the NFL teams over the last few years. That not one has taken a flyer on him is telling. I remember reading somewhere very poor interviews…but there is more because he is associated with/responsible for one of the hottest teams since the Patriots run. So he’s not being interviewed simply to satisfy the Rooney rule but he’s not been hired.

Third head coach off the Kyle Shanahan coaching tree ? \

 

For all the shit he took, Gary Kubiak's coaching staffs seeded some impressive head coaching talent.

kubiak is a great, great person 

I used to work with his cousin. We’re standing around the tool shop and a big truck pulls up, out jumps kubiak. His cousin’s dad had passed a couple of weeks ago and he stopped to talk and condolences. Took me and his cousin for lunch. Good times man

Hope that Bryce and QJ are available and get drafted by Houston.  That would be ideal.

that's a great story. Kubiak had some good moments as head coach and this Arian Foster/Andre Johnson/Owen Daniels fantasy owner loved what he brought to the offense in those years the Texans didn't suck.

His downfall was drafting a fat aggy kicker over someone else that will be HOF

Kubiak ran what is now the "Shanahan" offense.  As I mentioned earlier in this thread, I'm pleased he may be plucking an OC from the 49ers staff.  I think that offense is perfect for the NFl because it's "easy" for QBs.  OL coach will be a very important hire.

Is this sarcasm or are you talking about Legatron?

 

I’m on record saying the Texans won’t win shit while the McNairs own the team.  But this miiiiiight be the right hire to get them the fuck out of the way and let a football team be a football team.

What would be sweet as shit is if in the lead up to the draft all the buzz is on the DL talent and teams cool on this QB class. Already a lot of smoke that Chicago may keep #1 and get the best player on the board. Maybe another team wants the other top prospect and moves up…or wants their choice of QB while Houston could be indifferent or favor Levis over Young/Stroud. This team needs as much 1st-3rd round talent as it can get. If they take a QB at #2 who flops, it will set the franchise back another two or three seasons. I wouldn’t risk it with any of these QBs. 

Ryans is only going to be as good as the staff and players he has. It’s the right hire and I have faith he will put together a great staff, but they’ve got to kill the next 2 drafts.

I either forgot or never realized that Tucker was an undrafted free agent that year signed by Baltimore. 

Crazy that four kickers were drafted in 2012 (Fat Randy, Legatron, Blair Walsh, John Potter) and none were named Justin Tucker.
