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.

      Hubbard says he might have rushed back

      By cranky · Posted

      The best part is they compliment each other. Chuba is a more patient runner, patiently waiting for gaps to form while Rico is more explosive. I wish they would use Rico more like McCaffery was used - getting him the ball in space to take advantage of his explosivness and violence. Then have Chuba pound the middle for the tough yards.

      I loved those late 90s-early 2000s Miami teams.  If McGahee hadn’t had that injury, he would probably have been a Top 10 all-time rusher, no doubt in my mind.  The fact he didn’t lose his leg below the knee is still a miracle.  And the fact he came back from that, made it in the NFL, and still carved out a career that included over 8k yards rushing and two pro bowls is damn impressive.  It just demonstrates how good he would have been had he never had the injury.  Prior to that, he was like nothing I had ever seen.  Like a bigger, more physical and elusive Reggie Bush.

      Boozer may end up going higher in the draft, but agree about Caleb Wilson. Give me that dude, think he's going to translate very well and has the attitude I want on a young team.  My perfect world as of now... Trade anything not bolted down as far as vet's go. Sexton is on an expiring and would be an easy flip. Bridges, just get him somewhere else. One year left on a low $20 mil deal should be an easy trade...but the apron for many teams could haunt us.  LaMelo is the issue. Likely would have to trade our problem to someone else for their problem (Ja, Zion, Zach Lavine) to make contracts somewhat match up.  I want to build around last year's draft class, get as many bites at this draft class as possible, etc. If we get lucky and get #1 or #2, wonderful. If not, get into the top 5 or so and grab Caleb Wilson.
