BucD+ 648 Posted December 6, 2013 (edited) @SI_PeterKing: I expect Gary Kubiak will be fired today as the coach of the Texans. @JayGlazer: Just heard from a Texans member who told me Coach Kubiak has informed coaches he has been let @RapSheet: 1m Gary Kubiak has left the #Texans facility. Source said he has informed others he is no longer the team’s coach. Edited December 6, 2013 by BucD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BwareDWare94 723 Posted December 6, 2013 This is what happens when you bench your up and coming QB for captain mediocrity, Matt Schaub. I'm sorry, Gary, but you let your young QB work out the kinks when your season is lost. You got what you deserved. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A lot of us fell for it, including me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RazorStar 4,025 Posted December 6, 2013 Wasn't the same after the Texans came to Foxboro and got hatefucked. I should have seen this coming. =O Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Favre4Ever+ 4,476 Posted December 6, 2013 (edited) RIvers has largely been a gigantic waste of space the last couple of years. Whether that was because of injury or otherwise is fairly irrelevant. As Razor said, things change.. QBs get better or worse.. New guys come in.. Circumstances are altered. I don't think it's unreasonable to say Schaub was at once a serviceable guy.

FartWaffles 1,857 Posted December 6, 2013 (edited) Kubes will be a hot commodity as an offensive coordinator. I wish him nothing but the best. But with that said, it was just time for him to go. I commend him for his efforts, but eight seasons is more than enough time to give a coach to build a championship team. Now I have to play the worrying game about who his possible successor may be...

FartWaffles 1,857 Posted December 7, 2013 Giving Dennison a shot might not have been so bad. Ehh... I'm of the thinking that after Week 17 Dennison will be gone too. The only reason he's still around is because somebody's gotta call the plays for the offense. Honestly I hope Wade gets the axe too. The entire coaching staff needs to be blown up.

Tridentdawgpound 1,043 Posted December 7, 2013 Lovie Smith or Jon Gruden. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SteVo+ 3,702 Posted December 7, 2013 Lovie Smith or Jon Gruden. Gruden is never returning to coaching. Not at the NFL level, anyway. Lovie, on the other hand, makes a lot of sense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Favre4Ever+ 4,476 Posted December 7, 2013 I think Jon Gruden would come back for the right situation. And I told Trident Lovie was going to Houston last week, so if it happens, remember who said it first. But if it doesn't go ahead and give Trident credit.

And I told Trident Lovie was going to Houston last week, so if it happens, remember who said it first. But if it doesn't go ahead and give Trident credit. I saw it first from Vin on Twitter. And I'm not saying Gruden wouldn't want to come back; I just don't see any team wanting to bring him back. He's been out of the game too long (as a coach, anyway).

FartWaffles 1,857 Posted December 8, 2013 I'd be okay with Lovie Smith, but just okay. There's other coaching candidates I'd be a lot more ecstatic about. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
