Rigotz Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 https://www.nbcsportsedge.com/football/nfl/player/58052/jack-easterby For those less familiar, Easterby is a "company man" that has the ear of the team owner and is rumored to be behind some of the Texans worst hires and franchise decisions. He has survived through some of the most inept front office regimes football has ever seen. Thank god our version of Easterby is very, very far away from the team now. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoyBatty is alive Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 I hear them bitching about Easterby almost daily on sports radio in Houston and there is or was NO ONE, not even close to as disruptive, dysfunctional or controversial with the Biils as is Easterby with the Texans. If you are referring to Russ Brandon, sorry, not in the same league. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridgewaycynic2013 Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 (edited) Easterby: Too moral.* Brandon: Amoral. * At least in the smug and self righteous sense. Thankfully, the league is rid of Shelley and Urban Meyer, the NFL's Jim and Tammy Faye Bakker.

JoPoy88 Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 No one in recent Bills’ history is even close to the utter disaster Easterby is in Houston. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are referring to Russ Brandon, sorry, not in the same league. He's Russ 2.0 - new and improved. Extreme RUSS! Easterby was with NE as team chaplain and character coach from 2013-2018. Then he became EVP of team development with Houston in 2019, and in 2020 became EVP of football operations. Russ Brandon showed up in 97, and became Director of non-football operations in 2006. Then was defacto GM in 2008 (with 0 football scouting or management experience), to CEO in 2010 when they hired buddy. Then he became team president in 2013. Buffalo went 2 years with a non-football guy as a General manager - and he was with the organization for like the entirety of the drought. He did oversee the sale of the team, and they ended up staying in buffalo, so we can thank him for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FilthyBeast Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 Texans are truly a dumpster fire of an organization and it's hard to believe they were a borderline championship contender type of team when the Bills played them just a few years ago.

ChasBB Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 (edited) Not in the front office ranks, but I'm reminded of Chuck Lester 😁 And I'm not knocking the guy, but it was amazing he served 5 different HCs in Buffalo between 1987 & 2009 - Marv Levy, Wade Phillips, Gregg Williams, Mike Mularkey & Dick Jauron Edited March 9, 2022 by ChasBB Add content Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo_Stampede Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Russ Brandon was trying to keep a dying franchise alive. Houston is one of the most profitable franchises in the NFL. Any issues they have are self inflicted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
