A big part of Head Coaching is People Management. All the really good HCs in the league have some kind of vision of how they want the team to function on both sides of the ball, and they have something about them that demands respect from the other coach’s and players. Getting the right players doing the right things in the right scheme, getting the other coaches to get the players to play better. Demanding respect without having to verbalize it, not because you have the swagger, but because people under you believe in your vision and trust in your management. Is that Josh McCown? I don’t know. I have a ton of respect for him as a player. It’s like in movies, you have a Producer, a Director, and then you have Actors. Not every Actor is going to be a good Director, no matter how talented they are. 10000% agree with everything you said. Another analogy would be saying just because you're good at sales does not mean that you should go straight to CEO. On top of that, who would McCown bring in for coordinators? Are the Texans hoping they can keep the majority of the staff and plug McCown in as HC? I really hope it's Flores, although my gut is saying we're about to hire McCown. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Won a Super Bowl with the Bears, pretty decent record overall with them, although stops in Tampa Bay and Illinois didn't go great. Hopefully he would keep Pep and make him OC. Still can't help but feel if we wanted him to be HC, we could've made this happen a lot sooner. Feels more like everyone else is backing out and we're running out of options.

The game has passed him by. If it's between him or Flores, the choice should easily be Flores. This organization is a damn joke. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's between Lovie and McCown, Lovie all day. He had us top 10 in INTs and top 10 in sacks last season with a defense severely lacking talent. I still don't think he'd be the long term answer, but he'd have us more competitive and taking the right steps forward. Who would you rather have between Lovie and McCown?

lumberjackchris Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 You can’t hire Flores now You can’t hire McCown now So this gets them their smoothest transition to McCown as HC in a 2 years ish. Hell, who knows if McCown will even like the grind of being an NFL coach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco79 Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Given the fact that McCown was an optipn — I’m fine with Lovie. I wish they had just gave him the job last year instead. I don’t think this looks good for Caserio though. You have a HC search in back to back years and the best you can do is David Culley and Lovie Smith? Nothing against Lovie, he’s actually qualified for the job, but not the most inspiring candidates and it definitely seems to say something about how they are running things.

I think this shows just the influence Jack might have on Cal/the team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texansfan713 Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Looks like Pep Hamilton is staying on as OC. I wouldnt hate that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ET80 Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Nick Caserio is really clueless on how this works. I would expect him to get fired after next season, but we all know that isn’t happening. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pastor Dillon Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 What a joke.....Lovie is nothing more than Culley with a proven track record of failing....why????? Hes 63 years old, this is another move that says we want to tank and find a coach in a few years. I much rather would have preferred rolling the dice with something crazy like McCown. this is not going to end well. And hiring Pep doesn't do anything for the offense. If we are hiring Lovie, we really need a real OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OzzyTexan Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 I like keeping Lovie on as HC. I had previously mentioned that at times this season when listening to Culley and then Smith press conferences, how I would've preferred Smith as the HC... Will get to keep some of the staff intact which I think was important regardless who was hired. Pep as OC I can be down with that. Look for them to add Marinelli as DC if Lovie is the HC. Keeping Ross on as special teams coach. I could get on board with that staff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
