2019 NFL Off-Season Thread

Wonder what the dynamic of odell n baker relationship gonna be if browns get off to rough start...Baker ain't the type to let a teammate show him up, like Eli did odell...plus Eli had two super bowls he had nothing to prove far as being a leader, people just called ODB immature. But w baker, they gon question his ability to lead. Should be interesting

Next question: Why did the Texans interview Ray Farmer and Martin Mayhew?

This is the one that is creating the biggest buzz in league circles. Given that both men are minority candidates, and in light of the speed with which they were interviewed, some suspect that the Texans hoped to quickly comply with the Rooney Rule via the Farmer interview, to over-comply with the Rooney Rule via Mayhew interview, and then to quickly hire Caserio. By interviewing no other candidates and by hiring neither Farmer nor Mayhew after the pursuit of Caserio imploded, the Farmer and Mayhew interviews look like shams.

Really, when has a team ever interviewed multiple candidates for a key job and decided to hire none of them? The speed with which the Texans decided not to pursue Caserio and not to hire anyone at all leads to a know-it-when-you-see-it conclusion that the Texans fired Gaine to hire Caserio, interviewed Farmer and Mayhew to stay on the right side of the Rooney Rule, made their move to hire Caserio, failed, and punted.

Although there was no Rooney Rule violation (it’s hard to violate the Rooney Rule when the team ultimately hired no one), the inescapable impression is that the Texans wanted Caserio, they interviewed Farmer and Mayhew because the Rooney Rule required it, and then they hired no one when they couldn’t get the only candidate they wanted.

They wanted Caserio. They presumably still do. Perhaps when the Texans finally fill the job, Farmer, Mayhew, and all other candidates (minority or otherwise) will decline to be interviewed.

During the 1st half of the season it was a serious concern. However, he cleaned it up a bit during the second half of the season. The hope is that a full offseason to prepare for an NFL season and NFL coaching that it will improve. He is a smart kid, with the right attitude and has the drive to get better. Hoping for the best

9 man boxes coming his way


Eli is the worst QB in the league over the last 3 years when OBJ not on the field.


Only Brotles was worse
