Bieniemy is one of two finalists.  Texans hire him.  Watson stays.

Everyone is happy.

Except for you. lol  And to think the Texans initially had no plans at all to interview Eric "sleeping with " Bieniemy . Nothing like giving in to your whinny QB.

Biennemy gets the job and chooses the rebuild with Fields + additional draft capital. Immediately takes the pressure off him to “win now”. Ownership gets the social justice warrior off their back and flip Watt for a 2nd Mercellius for a 3rd and get the rebuild underway. 
 

 

So they're trading him to Miami??

If Watson stays then that’s fine - I’d rather that then him go to Miami. 
 

But i don’t think Stafford or keeping Darnold is the move. If Watson stays - get Zach Wilson or Fields and let’s get this thing rollin with new coach, new system, new GM, new everything. Use all those draft picks everyone is talking about and let’s build this thing. 
 

 

As long as Dolphins don't get Watson.   I can live with what ever JD decides if it is Sam or QB we draft.  My preference is to trade down 3-4 picks and get a haul of picks and then trade down again and get more picks.  We can be set up in the draft this year and next year with lots of high picks.  There are CB's, OL, edge rushers and WR's to be gotten in picks 16-25.

The fact that a tool like Dan Campbell was actually hired before Bieniemy says a lot about this league 

What does it say? 

That we dont know what happens when someone interviews, dont know what is in their background so we go straight to the race card?

It would be great if the Texans hire him to please Watson and he still wants out anyway.

He does lol. 

His displeasure has everything to do with the state of the roster. Very unlikely they are going to be in contention the next 2 years. Using the racial narrative always seems to resonate more in modern society. Now it’s ownership. Sure. Then why did you agree to a long-term extension? 

Pretty much getting confirmation from those around the league that the Texans are a horrible situation to be in, so he wants out.

And this doesn't describe us, especially if we give up a ton of draft capital?

It seems like other people have surmised it’s a racial issue because it’s alleged that Watson wanted Bieniemy interviewed, and Bieniemy has become the latest, greatest exemplar of black coaches not getting a real shot. Watson willingly played for a diehard hillbilly in Dabo Swinney, so maybe having a black, non-hillbilly coach was never his motivation, just one that media types tried to foist upon the situation

The Texans don't have a 1st or 2nd round pick the next two years and are over the cap going into next season. Even if the Jets game up a 1st round pick each of the next 3 years they'd still have a pick in every round in the next 2 drafts and over $90 mllion in cap space this offseason. Two totally different scenarios.

They interviewed Josh McCown I think it is safe to say that they don't know what the **** they are doing.

I don’t think we can compare his college and professional status.  He has way more leverage now. I don’t think it’s a black thing as much as a minority thing
