Per John McClain...

According to Aaron Wilson, part of the reason behind David Culley being a candidate is that he and DeShaun Watson got along really well when the Ravens staff coached Watson in the Pro Bowl.

Given that he wasn't really on anyone else's radar, this seems like it would be total deference to Watson.

I may be proven wrong, but I'm really going to assume that Bienemy got smart and took himself out of the running. 

You have to be pretty desperate at this point to take up job where you're set up to fail. That, or you think you're head-coaching Houdini.

I said prior to the championship game that the loser might turn out to be the winner as far as this job because they'd be available to start sooner.

If Bienemy didn't take himself out of consideration, then at some point you just have to say that something's up with the guy! He must not interview well, or rubs people the wrong way. It's got to be something.

I've seen suggestions from more than one source that he's not very good at interviewing.

There were (unverified) reports that his interview with the Panthers was a disaster.

I agree, and have said all along that he should get his free meal and tell them thanks, but no thanks. He wasn't good enough before Watson threw a fit, then he isn't good enough now. He knows he was being used. Houston is a place for a new coach to place his head on a chopping block from the start.

That is kind of what I am thinking. If it wasn't him just flat out not wanting these jobs, maybe he is one of these "complete roster control" guys? I know a lot of places that isn't viewed well. Or maybe he just doesn't interview well.

Then again, let's be honest.....maybe he really is just a product of Andy Reid? We probably aren't going to know until he finally gets a shot at it.

I think I might be able to see where this is heading.

I could see them hiring him, it want change Watson's mind though. Houston has still failed to see that this is about more than a coach. This is about a failed promise, and about the front office, especially Easterly.

      Another example of Bryce playing chess that casuals wouldn’t notice or appreciate

      I'm probably one of those posters, but I make those posts because there are too many things going on that don't make sense. For instance, how does a RB that does something that hasn't been done in 14 years immediately get reverted back to 2nd string, and it takes a leadership council to make him the starter when he's averaging 3x the YPC? Your average fan shouldn't be screaming that for 2 weeks before the coach sees it. And that's one of many.  What you're seeing is frustration that we could be better, that we should be better, if our owner, FO, and coaches could do things that are so painfully obvious to even the most basic fan

      I think we're all struggling with what things are right now and what they have been. It's like getting ready to have bandages removed after a long period of injury. The healing, the new growth, they aren't going to be pretty, there's going to be some ongoing issues for a while at best and there's every chance that we're going to have to go back into the bandage situation all over again. And that sucks. But it's also a place where maybe, just maybe, the recovery is going to finally start happening. The bad days will be getting behind us.  It's not going to happen this year, but I believe from what I see that this year is showing that improvement. We focus on the QB because that's what all the pundits focus on, because it's the flashiest and most heralded position on the field. No one wants to put out a tweet about how a center is holding down their job and anchoring a line. They rarely celebrate that blocking tight end or special teams gunner. That fourth CB on the depth chart? Not a mention. And yet, those guys are the kind that we've been building here, we're building the lunch pail guys AND finding some future stars.  Is Bryce one of them? Might be a cornerstone of the team in the future as the second QB, might somehow just show out to end the season. Might flame out like many expect. But if that uncertainty is all we concentrate on, we're just going to miserably look at this team and maybe miss out on some solid green shoots that are finally beginning to poke through into the sunlight.
