Texans' owner: Kubiak is 'doing a good job'

That's owner talk for 'I'm not going to fire him during the season.'

He may not fire him after a 6-10 season, either, because of the labor issue and because of his contract and because people keep buying tickets and because he'll keep telling himself and anyone who will listen that the team is close.

I agree with this statement.

OK I am going to skip the OCs and college guys. Most of us know the guys we like.

So who is on my short list?

Cowher
Gruden
Gregg Williams
Jim Harbough
Chuck Cecil
Dave McGinnis
Mike Heimerdinger


If I go with a defensive guy as the HC, then I am looking hard at keeping Dennison here. If I go with an offensive guy, then I try to get Wade Phillips in here to run the defense. Or if the rumors are true, Singletary can be my DC.

Me, I like Gruden the commentator but not Gruden the coach, fwiw, about 1/2 cent. He lost his job in Tampa didn't he.

As Bum Phillips once said "There's two kinds of coaches, them that's fired and them that's gonna be fired."

maybe just worth 1/4 cent then.

Could be interesting to see Bob and Jerrah in a bidding war for their dream head coach ...should Kubiak be a goner, that is.

And with Carolina stinking, doesn Cowher go there? Gruden could come with a pretty high pricetag.

I don't mean to toss dirt on Kubes, but, to play along... 2nd time HCs have some appeal for me, and Gregg Williams seems to be the one I'd want to learn more about.
