    No we need to know maybe that will shed a light on how screwed up this organization is hell there maybe some stuff that comes out that prolly gets easterby out of here I want it ugly hell cause if he leaves what’s the point in even watching this team going forward with easterby still here deciding faith over talent this team will be a lame duck team for years until the McNair sell man if we had seen this outlook before football was brought back here they could have just kept it and moved one of the other teams here firm St. Louis or Oakland the mcnairs brought us football pain nothing more nothing less

    At the end of the day unless u getting 4 first from the jets and I mean they first not the Seattle picks the jets first I’m good on trading him sit out they go 0-16 but trading an top 5 QB and watching him possibly win in another city would just be crushing But then again if it forces Cal to sell maybe it is worth

    Amy Palcic, too.


    Seems like things really escalated once she was fired.

    Watson is not the kind of kid not to back his coach, no matter how much he disagrees.

    He backed whoever was his coach at the time cause that's what players do. He's not doing it this time cause it was a sht show of a hiring.

    If he didn't back the coach and outright btch about him, u would b in the frontline calling Watson a diva, btch, and cancer to the locker room

    Watson cant win either way in your book unless he's down on his knees kissing the Texans organization feet. quite disgusting.

    You asked for examples and I gave 9 examples 4 of which happened after obrien.

    You act like the mcnairs and easterby weren't there which is funny. Banana in tailpipe type stuff the old -
    "It's not me it's them/they"
    Talk about a bad faith argument. Ouch.

    Of course watson is going to be supportive of his coach AND the guy working as gm making his new contract. Especially when he is coach AND gm...cmon man!

    You act like it's all obrien and none of this other stuff happened and yet before that it was godsey play calling, or gaine is the problem..no wait it's rick Smith I meant kubiak no thats not right it's because of casserly....no it's because it was expansion team and I tell you boselli really wanted to play!!
    So it will be easterby next? He's the next problem right? Then what lol

    Again you ask for examples I'm just giving the ones off top of head and we only know the public stuff...you are a smart dood and all the sudden youve checked out here?

    How many times are you cool with it before you want to bounce? Most would say I was fooled 5, 6, 7 times but 9 TIMES?!?

    Lets be clear here in a few short years:

    -Texans lost players like clowney, duane Brown

    -Signed guys like Martin, brennan scarlett = "tough smart" aka code word for cheap cheap team friendly.. the entire philosophy defined in these 2 examples of mediocre pieces of sh*it..these 2 are the epitome of texans and news flash ZERO to do with winning! This is why watson wants out..when has " tough smart dependable " win any games? Obrien gone and yet you hear caserio using the exact same terminology! Someone needs to shake the sh*it out of these dudes.
    I mean where did we fall off and miss the boat on this so badly? I don't want bad guys but when did it become about " tough smart dependable"? Wtf!!

    -the Texans lost/fired gm rick Smith

    -the Texans fired gaine in short order (scapegoat)

    --Lost a bunch of draft capital and players due to poor gm management after gaine and zero plan.

    -Texans traded one of if not best receiver in game for hot garbage

    -fired coach/gm mid season

    -still no plan before during or after ..near whole season of buying more time

    -Texans subsequently went 4-12

    I was on here more than once asking Watson to put pressure on mgmt to get rid of Bill O’Brien.

    i said things like if he wants to “save” the long term legacy of his career he needs to pressure mgmt to move on from Bill O’Brien...

    so....

    no

    see if he wants to use his power, fine. Do so for the benefit of his team, his teammates, his fans, etc. AS WELL as just for the benefit of himself.

    This Deshaun is too good a guy/teammate to not back his coach is insane. He’s right now not backing his team at all in any way. The latest I saw was he doesn’t want to go in a deal where a team will have to give up a ton of assets to get him. Screw off Deshaun.

    But half the stuff that happened after O'brien (or more, i can't remember what you typed) was DW not getting his way on hires.

    "Hire x or i'm gone"...

    And look, i think if DW says hire person X, you probably want to pay attention...
    BUT at the same time, i have no trust in who DW wants to hire.
    Cause I don't know what his motivations are.

    He may/probably just doesn't like Cal.

    Guess what, Cal's not selling. I might not like Cal... i might, i don't know. But if everyone who doesn't like Cal demands a trade and "that's cool" then stop being a fan of the team. Cal's here to stay.

    I just do know that DW had opportunity to use his power at the appropriate time, and instead waited until after he inked that extension.

    And you guys are all like "but yeah, he should care about his $$$!!!"

    Which I absolutely get... but i'm not going to let him have his cake and eat it too.

    Hopkins for example was traded MONTHS before DW inked his extension. DW didn't ink his extension until September. Here's an idea if you want off the Texans. DON'T sign the extension. The things that have happened since then.
    * they sucked. that's because Bill Obrien was ****ing horrible at everything involving his job. Which he still had because DW didn't say **** about him before.
    * DW had his best season ever nonetheless
    * They didn't give DW exactly what he wanted in the executive hires.

    And we know its because he didn't get his EXACT way, because the second the coach hire came out, the trade demand request went 100% formal and picked up steam by journalists. Eg. his agents started pushing it super hard.

    It’d take more than just the number 1 pick. No way you can trade Deshaun in division AND leave Jax with a plethora of draft picks.

    Dabo can get a little Qannonballish at times but he can also see what 98% of the fan base and outsiders see when it comes to the 'cult' these guys want to establish.
    And you know Dabo has talked to Deshaun about this texans cult saga. They have that relationship.

    It was all so simple Monday after that last game. Rid easterby hire the new GM not vouched by easterby.

    And where is the local media? Foster had a Pawg on the side and they all got bent out of shape and stalked his house. Go stalk, easterby at his house, channel 13!

    That is fking crazy.

    If some random boss of mine went to call my MOTHER about any concerns he had with ME - thats a HUGE problem. Like enough to want to square up and make sure that it never happens again.

    GET OUT THERE AND FACE THE MUSIC CAL & JACK!

    But really, it’s about Culley and all Cal would be asked about is Deshaun & Easterby.

    I agree! Don't trade him for less than two 1st round and a couple second round picks.

    No, in reality Cal can't go out there because he's embarrassing. I mean yikes, last press conference was really bad.
