A first time HC coming in trying to rebuild everything that was torn down by the previous regimes would get a lot more slack than Frank Reich and his all star staff who were brought in expecting immediate results.

Self-awareness is not exactly a strong point on this team.

We were never really as good as they believed we were last season under Wilks.

Reich can go, getting rid of him after a year won't deter people, Texans had two one and dones in a row and found their way to a near ideal situation.  Its not the ever growing impatience, it's the involvement.  

But there will be a guy who doesn't mind it and I imagine it could be another type that wants a lot of control and $$.  Who that is, we may not like or may not be ideal, but it's the corner we're in.  

Doubt we're getting Ben Johnson or any of the young promising coordinators.  

Juast hope we clean house GM, scouting dept, and coaching staff and redo this from the ground up.  We're stuck with Tepper so we'll just have to roll with his next overly involved gamble.

...better than Tepper. Not well enough to be a real contender though. Of course, we are in such a terrible an awful state that just about anything would be an improvement.

The biggest hope I have heading into next season is that we added Adrian Wilson to the front office.

He came aboard too late to really have an effect on this past offseason, but with a full offseason to work next year It might be different.

The Texans hired a former player who loved the organization.

I don't know that we have anybody like that in the pipeline, although it kind of fits our current coach 😕

We tried the dinosaur version who could implement a dated, 00s' San Diego Chargers offense.

I'm a fan of Reich, but he's disappointed me a lot this year.

The biggest problem is is attempt to force a scheme on personnel that don't fit, but I'm not happy with some of the depth chart decisions either.

All that said though, Florio is right. As long as Tepper is running things the way he is now, it's not going to matter.

Oh yeah Tepper sucks and we are screwed.

Original word was that Tepper wanted an established head coach.

At some point, the story became that we wanted a young offensive mind.

Then we interviewed the young offensive minds (except Johnson) and suddenly everything changed.

Hard to know what to believe at this point, except that it sounds like chaos.

I'm honestly approaching a point of near total apathy.

I have ideas about what I think should happen and shouldn't happen, but I'm not terribly passionate about them anymore because I'm not sure it matters.

      Hubbard says he might have rushed back

      I agree it is more about the OL. If you happen to have a world beater with a great OL then that’s better obviously but you don’t need to have that.  Capable and durable guys that can get to the second level with good blocking can be plenty.

      I think Gibbs is special, but you’re right, some of the top investments have proven to not be much different than some 2nds and 3rds. Taylor for example is on an MVP level season. James Cook is doing better than Breece Hall for example. Raiders weren’t in a good spot to draft Jeanty. Same with the Falcons/Bijan.  You gotta swing at the right time — the investment shouldn’t come too early. You almost have to stumble into a guy mid to late rounds while building or find that guy to put you over the top when the team is finally well rounded.

      Like I said in another post yesterday, the handling of the offensive line by Fitterer and mostly Morgan has been crazy. We've spent way too much money(Lewis and Hunt) to keep Bryce upright instead of using our picks in the 2nd round on JPJ and Frazier. Could have kept an injured Corbett at guard, Brady at swing, and still taken Maye as a backup, sorry Zavala. We wouldn't have taken XL, but XL hasn't been as advertised anyway, and Brooks hasn't contributed anything. Moton's extension with it's signing bonus made him uncutable. Icky's contract was due at the same time Bryce's 3rd year ended, and we all know it's extension or 5th year, and if we're going to do a 5th year, he's going to want the extension.  To me the whole thing is just ridiculous. Right now, depending on if Tepper decides to keep Bryce, it feels like we're going to have to choose between Icky and a Bryce extension. Maybe he plays on the 5th year, but I think he'll want the big money guarantee.  JMO, but if you took a look at how the contracts could potentially fall, the writing was on the wall that this could be a cash flow nightmare. Too many contract guarantees, not enough rookie contracts to offset the upcoming paydays.
