Shula promoted to OC

Rivera: Well, yeah, it probably would have been best to go with a more qualified candidate for the job, but if I did, it really would have put a lot of pressure on me trying to keep my job. That constant fear that the guy beneath me is a better coach than I and probably going to take my job was just more than I could bare, so I went with the least qualified candidate I could find.

More or less, anyways.

I think some of you are not paying attention. We have a new GM but we kept the coach. If this season tanks, the next HC will want to bring in his own staff. Why would we hire and give a contract to a new OC when there is at least a small chance he will get fired next year and still get paid

Shula won't have more than a one year contract?

Steve smith speaking on the hire on wfnz now...and he has the opposite view on the hire that 95% of y'all have.

Interesting

Yeah. Players were pissed when Marty got poo-canned, missed Fox and wanted Rivera retained.

That truly inspires some confidence in their staffing opinions.

    • WR: Nico, Woods, Tank (R) TE: Schultz OL: Tunsil/Howard/Deiter/Mason/Fant vs. WR: Chark, Thielen, Mingo (R) TE: Hurst OL: Icky/Zavala (R)/Bozeman/Jensen (R)/Moton   Panthers' had the better OL before losing BC week 1 and AC week 4 which is kind of ironic considering how in the following year DB went down in W1 and Shaq in W4 resulting in the defense going all to Hell. CJ has done amazing in Houston, but he also wasn't asked to carry Zavala, Jensen, Mingo, Hurst, and Chark as a rookie.
    • Past 5 seasons, IMO CJ Stroud and Joe Burrow are the 2 best young QBs that have emerged in the league in that window.  They also didn’t need vets to be their primary pass catchers.  They helped fellow youngsters be great at WR.   almost all the other young QBs have been paired up with vets in their top options….and haven’t been as promising.  so it isn’t Madden.  But the league hasn’t played out as you suggest it does.   Good QBs make others around them better.   
    • In 2023 their roster wasn’t stacked. They nailed the poo out of the 2023 draft and since they knew Davis Mills wasn’t the guy, they tanked properly to get pick 2. They also took Cleveland’s ridiculous offer for Watson unlike us with Burns. Houston received enough draft capital to jump up to 3 while picking up the right guys in Anderson and Stroud. The Texans were not stacked or better than us in 2023. They had 11 total wins from 2020 to 2022. They didn’t have a terrible front office so they made sure they got their QB of the future while tanking well and getting more draft picks. They are a textbook study of what we should have done in 2022/2023 offseason even though people in here still think tanking is a bad word and our culture would be bad if we were the Texans. We literally had the chance to be the Texans right now and fuged it up.
