    Also LOL at the chorus of "he's a headcase/future portaler/next Zach Evans" reactions immediately following this update. Not at all transparent.

    You must've been busy relishing in some other Texas misfortune the past week and a half, missing the reservations that have been had on here about LJ. Pretty got damn transparent.

    I’ve thought that same thing. Someone they can hire to be fired in a few years and someone that will work for cheap comparatively.

    You've got a young franchise QB. Figure you'd trust your evaluation and hire a young coach who could coach him throughout his career... instead you're looking at two guys in their 60s.

    Not an ageist or anything, but...

    It's possible they have and/or will interview Bieniemy via Zoom. Apparently they do not need to request the meeting through the Chiefs until after the 31st, so they can contact Bieniemy directly at any time between now and then.

    It enrages me that a coach or player’s religion or lifestyle would disqualify someone from being hired by the Texans. It’s outrageous that the team representing the most diverse city in the country would have rubes running a team like that. The McNairs conception of what it means to have character is also faulty from a Christian perspective. For them it is like an exclusive club where they apply their privileged worldview. Bieniemy getting into scrapes more than 30 years ago as a college kid shouldn’t disqualify tor this job. They have no forgiveness or acknowledgment that we are all broken. Key tenets of Christianity 

    Yah, I'm not going to say for a fact that religion played a significant part there with Saleh, 'cos we really don't know, but I also can't ignore it as an extreme possibility with Lakewood's youth pastor helping to run the show. Doesn't help that part of the reason they traded Hopkins seemed to be based on morality.

    I’m starting to warm up to a trade with the Jets to get Zach Wilson (plus other first and second rounders) over a trade with Miami to get Tua (with other first and second rounders). Is Mormonism compatible with Cal and Easterby’s platform?

    Obviously not, as Saleh (maybe the best candidate) couldn't even sniff an interview.

    I also don't know if Deshaun meshes with the Jets, seeing that Woody Johnson is now coming back from the Trump Administration. That's just a guess, though. Deshaun might not be all of the way that way.

    They will try to "reassign" him but his clout will stay the same. 

    It's basically what Cal has said they're doing. But as long as he's in there, there's a heavy group of players and staff who aren't enjoying coming to work.

    As far as the public knows, what are Watson's demands? 

    He hasn't said anything publicly, but I'm sure a lot of it is centered around fixing the culture inside of NRG, which includes Jack Easterby being removed from the building. That would go a long way. Calhoun McNair instead has chosen his personal pastor over his players and fans. Throw that on top of all of the other dumb shit this organization has done, and I don't feel there's a lot that's gunna change Watson's mind. Same with my mind.
