TitanSlim Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Not to dive too deep into this but, as someone who’s the grandson of pastor and grew up in the church, there’s no way you’re going to have a successful team in any sport by just having “culture fits” for your team. It’s impossible and honestly a stupid way to run a franchise. Sounds like that’s what Cal & Easterby have done/are doing which explains so much why the franchise is in turmoil right now. It’d really be bad if that “culture fit” leads them to prematurely hire McCown as the head coach. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYJets4716 Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 I understand why Watson wants to leave the Texans, that organization has no idea what they are doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But - is this narrative really true? Does he want to leave? For all intents and purposes, we've not really heard from him. There's speculations on what he's actually said on the subject, but there's nothing even remotely resembling what he wants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Culture" is just another word for "ego" (in this case, Easterby's ego) and "culture guys" is just a fancy way of saying "yes men". It's the corporate America mindset.

-Hope- Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 on some level i get it because mccown is a guy who would probably make a great coach somewhere down the line. but tossing him right into the fire from player directly to head coach feels pretty unhinged Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's Easterby's ego if anything. All things considered, Caserio might be the only hope in the room - a football guy looking for football guys. Rest of this is spot on.

SkippyX Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Its much worse than just the football side. The Texans have danced between mediocre and bad for their entire existence but they are a top 8 moneymaking franchise. They have a PR guy who is an absolute wizard. They are all over places like HEB. They have the Battle Red stuff to get fans revved. The gameday experience is top notch all around. They have their own radio station which does pretty good job of tight-roping objectivity and homerism OK, maybe not when the play by play guy is on. They even have Toro's math drills to get kids thinking Texans while they dig into schoolwork. That wizard is leaving because he lost a power struggle with ... ________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
