There have been two different guys make specific comments about the team chemistry. There's a common thread there, which is why I take exception when people dismiss it as, "Faggins is more about sour grapes & bad apples."
Whatever. Just because Faggins is a dime corner and CC Brown is a mediocre safety doesn't make then unqualified from commenting on the quality of the Texans' lockerroom.
Here's to hoping that the chemistry changes as the quality of play does.

He was specifically asked after a training camp practice what the differences are between his current Team and his old one. He did not bring this up on his own. It was an answer to a direct question. That is far different than if he left the team and trashed the Texans. He didn't. He was asked a question and he gave a honest but positive answer. Not a ground breaking expose.
Now if long time Texans retire and bash the team on their own (as opposed to answering questions about their new team), then I would take notice. This just doesn't seem like a big deal.
