Coach Tuesday

The Pegulas wasted everyone's time by learning on the job and hiring two glorified scouts as GMs to learn on the job at the same time. Hard to blame Whaley. New owners should bring in experienced football/hockey folks.

From what I remember, you could usually tell how engaged he was from the look on his face during pregame warmups. There were many Sundays when he seemed totally checked out before the game even started.

I mean yeah, it's difficult to keep weight under control if you're an adult, period. But he's a professional athlete who needs to prove himself to a brand-new set of coaches who run a different scheme from the coaches who drafted him, and whose scheme requires lighter LBs. There is very little excuse for showing up fat.

If Ragland shows up over 240, for a new coaching staff, in a new defense, after a lost rookie year, being a questionable scheme fit, he's a complete, utter moron.

Yup. The Tyrod malware program infected another thread.

Ugh - I meant Tyrod.

I too am quite skeptical, and a bit concerned by the approach. Why would you take a player like Tyrod and try to fit him into a timing offense, which requires precision and anticipation?

He's suchhh a dog.

Injury dog

Malik B of the Roots?

Littman had much more of a direct role in the lease renegotiations than Brandon did. I know that from someone who sat at the table.

(Talking to myself like a lunatic) this article suggests he played a role, but that it was O'Brien who was the biggest proponent: http://www.houstonchronicle.com/sports/texans/article/Osweiler-acquisition-began-in-film-room-ended-6886807.php

Ok but - did he have anything to do with Osweiler?

Yep.

Sean Ellis, maybe.

Do you like Coldplay? Just asking.

Right? How does a post become its title? See: this thread.

This is awesome.

Who is "he"? Don't we need that information in order to evaluate your question?

They are so good at the football business.

Agree 100%, and I'm fine with it.

The troll is back

I just hope he and McD understand how to plan both short- and long-term strategies for building the roster and staying competitive. Yes you need a QB but you also need to anticipate trends, and think creatively about how to allocate scarce resources. The Pegulas hired two scouts and gave them the keys to both franchises. They seem to have realized the mistake, but let's hope this next round of hires are the right people.

Methinks he doesn't, but he should.
