Texans agree to hire Patriots Caserio

Recommended Posts

Longtime Texans beat writer John McClain added some info with regard to the coaching search.

Caserio will reportedly join owner Cal McNair in the coaching search, but three candidates have already been interviewed without him: Jim Caldwell, Marvin Lewis and Joe Brady. The Texans reportedly also want to interview Titans OC Arthur Smith and Colts DC Matt Eberflus but may wait since their teams are in the playoffs.

Other names could potentially be added, including Bills OC Brian Daboll, 49ers DC Robert Saleh and Chiefs OC Eric Bieniemy. Daboll and Caserio go back a long way from Daboll's time with the Patriots.

One person who reportedly won't be a candidate: Josh McDaniels (McClain didn't elaborate as to why).

This is a SERIOUS red flag for McDaniels. Ya know, if the disaster in Denver and the 11th hour spurning of the Colts weren't enough of a red flag for anyone.

It could be that he's been promised the Patriots job as soon as Belichick retires, but he was a candidate here just last year so who can say?

It's also being speculated that the Patriots are about to bleed coaching and front office staff talent. Caserio is already gone, Monti Ossenfort left last year and Pro Personnel Chief Dave Ziegler is a candidate for GM of the Broncos.

The rats might be deserting the ship.

Good I hope some one hires Jeff Ireland before us next that’ll be both my two least favorite candidates gone. Ed Dodds or Ryan Poles are my two guys.

We already interviewed ireland, and the only other team I know of that's doing so is the Lions (this Friday).

He and Matt Rhule are friends. Rhule is also said to "greatly respect" Ireland and Albert Breer reported that the team has "done a lot of homework" on him already.

Usually gm's like to have their own coach. Not the other way around. This is why tepper fuged up and will continue to fug up. We will hire the giants guy.

Reese? Wouldn't bet on it.

Besides, a couple of our GM candidates are already buddies with our head coach so they'd be "getting their guy" anyway.

Yeah man thanks to your detailed breakdowns (idk how you do it lol) I’ve gathered as much. I know he’s absolutely a possibility which is why I want him hired sooner than later by a team that isn’t the Panthers. I don’t want another retread I want some one new with new ideas who’s hungry to get it right the first time (although I’m certain he’s picked up some things while in NO). And after reading the athletic piece on him from 2019 I’m almost all in for Dodds for better or worse.

I prefer Peters or Dodds, but I could live with Ireland or Schoen.

For the record, as of right now it appears we're the only team set to interview Adam Peters.

There's been a lot of speculation that the Broncos would look to bring him back. So far the Broncos have requested interviews with three candidates. Peters isn't one of them.

Likewise, earlier today 49ers GM John Lynch was asked by a reporter about interview requests. He said Peters had only one (obviously, us).

If I am McDaniels and I had the choice to wait on the Patriots job, or go take the Texans job, I'm moving to Houston. 

Neither team is good right now, but the Texans have a very good franchise QB locked into a contract. With that most important piece in place, it makes things easier to build a team around. The Patriots have lost talent, and most of the remaining talent is getting older.  Patriots need a overhaul including at QB

    • He can’t even learn to run routes. No chance in hell he can do both that and pick up blocking schemes 
    • Well he had essentially a 70% completion rate for almost three thousand yards.  Biggest issues were awkward and inconsistent release.  I wouldn't call arm strength bad, but not great.    
    • I see him being better and most of that is a few downfield passes that were seemingly non existent.    But it is what is around him that has dictated the trajectory more than the quarterbacking. He is game manager level and unable to dictate to defenses.  And even if I am wrong and he is the reason we ‘upwarded’, we are bumping our heads on the ceiling and only making meager gains. If it is an incline it is awfully shallow degree wise. Like a finance graph that tracks your progress and hovers around the rate of inflation. Barely breaking even.  Is that where you want your money?  We make up these deadlines expectations and generally he does the minimum of what he needs to do to hang around.    It does not encourage me to believe that when we get into a game against a good run d that we cannot break down with our run game, to believe that we can pivot to the air and successfully counter their strategy.  But they run it back again. Of course I am gunshy of a repeat of the same thing we have watched for three years.    oh, and yes his durability is his most impressive positive for my money. I fear the other shoe dropping on that and the contractual consequences that will follow.   Last  of all, too late to edit my mistake here but would like to acknowledge it: the last three years has done very little to convince me that I was not wrong in not wanting him. One too many “not”s.
