I think that is exactly the 'straw that broke the camel's back' - this HC does not like entitlement. He believes that players have to earn their position on the team everyday. The past is not worth anything, it's what you contribute today.
For those who hadn't heard the story, the Texans were in a team meeting. The floor was then handed over to the Special Teams Coach to go over some things and a couple of players got up and left. O'Brien went outside to confront them by asking "Where the F*#K do you think you are going?" He didn't like the response, "We don't play on Special Teams." That pissed off the coach even more, "You don't play on Special Teams?!?" He couldn't believe that the Player was Telling Him where/when he played. "That's right, I am a Second Round Pick and I don't have to play Special Teams to make this roster."
So, essentially the Head Coach hates players who feel like they have their job in the bag and don't have to compete for it. He really isn't a big fan of complacency. So, you add that all up, and D. Swag is a Buc.
