As Texans Take Some Strides, How Are They Placed for 2022 Season and Beyond?

As the dust settles on the ’22 draft, the Texans are still in the early stages of their reclamation back towards pro-football relevancy. Nick Caserio inherited a threadbare talent-base, but after two drafts, two head-coaching appointments, a quarterback trade and countless free agent signings. Are they on the right track?

What Can Nick Caserio Get For Deshaun Watson?

As we stand on the precipice of the Deshaun Watson trade, a point of inflection faces the Texans & Nick Caserio. Acquiring a plethora of assets would give him the necessary capital to invest in a talent-barren roster that looks, at present, multiple years removed from competitiveness. But is that all about to change?

Are The Texans Finally Entering The Rebuild?

As the realisations of last season set in, the soundings from the team started to shift away from their flouted delusions to the refreshing but harsh reality. Nick Caserio’s task is finally re-setting this roster, as Texans circumstances are veering towards normal & it may have just levelled out enough where material progress is an option. After forming an iteration of last years coaching staff, the hurdles of free agency, the draft & the protracted Watson trade are coming quickly around the corner.

Caserio’s Watershed Moment Looms As The Head Coaching Cycle Starts To Turn

After just over a week of quiet. It emerged that the Texans had found time to interview Kevin O’Connell. The viable list of candidates looked narrow even with the L.A. Ram’s coordinator included, so it was a much needed positive. The process has been clouded by the raging debate of Josh McCowan and the inevitable inference of Jack Easterby, that detracts from a the teams sense of progress.

Despite Nothing On-Field, It Was Another Notable Week for The Texans

To be a Texans fans translates into a multitude of meanings for thousands of people. Within the NRG Stadium hallways, their actions consistently instil distain & divide the fanbase on a range of issues, whilst the on-filed remains secondary to the self-created side-show. With eyes on the future, that all seemed to be waning until this week.

A Year of Very little on Kirby Drive

As Nick Caserio spoke with the media Friday, to discuss the release of Coach Culley after only one year. You could have easily been mistaken in thinking he’d only just stepped into the General Manager’s role. But it was his hiring of David Culley on January 27th, 2021, that was now deemed untenable. There was a slight change in tone from the former long-time New England executive. But Caserio didn’t pose as someone who was feeling the strain. Conversely, he’s “immune to pressure” to be precise.

Are The Texans Finally Pivoting Towards The Future?

The news dropped rather suddenly Monday, following a performance of indignation in Indiana. There have been few inter-divisional games in recent memory, where the game was so heavily imbalanced as Sunday. The Texans were completely out-classed by the Colts, who only required 48-offensive plays to compile 31-points to Houston’s 3. That somber mood was reflective in Brandin Cooks’ post-game media conference, which then took a further turn the following day.

A Week Of Realisations For The Texans

Uncertainty has gripped this team since the all-too-powerful Bill O’Brien was fired last October. Their troubles have loomed despite their efforts to mask the upheaval with mass change. But this week, as the Texans are set to kick-off against Jacksonville this Sunday, a glaring light will shine on these long standing changes. The differing factorContinue reading “A Week Of Realisations For The Texans”
