The reporting on this is a feedback loop. The Texans franchise is incompetent and that makes for easy stories.

They are also 53 weeks away from their last playoff win and they have one of the most desired QBs in football. Fire Easterby and hire any coach Watson likes and this whole thing goes away. Watson getting a public win over Cal will quickly fix things. It doesn't take a genius to hold onto the guy who signed a 4 year extension 4 months ago. The problem is that it doesn't take a genius to be born into extreme wealth and Cal may be stupid enough and arrogant enough to take a stand on principles of racism and old money.
