The main problem I have with a firing, which I feel sure will happen, is I have no confidence at all that this group of idiots, McNeck and his lapdog and his idiot son, will have the wherewithal to find someone as good much less better.

Frank Reich is a guy who is plainly right up their alley - churchgoing dumbass. And these people are so deaf to / ignorant of history that they will be shocked when people like me howl with derision at their pick, should they pick that asshole.

The Texans fan in me wants them to keep BOB around because I think he and Deshaun could do crazy things on the field, and because I know BOB hates Slick Rick and McNeck, maybe more than I do. Probably more than I do. The Texans hater in me, an ever increasing percentage, hopes they fire BOB, hire some goon and see it all go sideways, watch McNeck kick it while his team is in the shitter and watch junior Irsay the whole thing up even worse than it was before. All while BOB goes on to win a SB with another team, of course, preferably the Titans but any old team would do.

I'm in San Diego visiting my family for Christmas and we both agreed that going to a division rival would be a very O'Brien thing to do. The Titans were my pick while he guessed Colts. Either way we agreed O'Brien would be unemployed for about a half hour. We also agreed that if Rick Smith lost his job, he'd be sitting next to Louis Riddick or Charlie Casserly on some pregame show. By the way, my brother didn't have these opinions because he's a bitter Texans fan, but rather because as a Patriots fan he laughs at the Texans from afar.

I happen to think the Colts are dumb enough to move on from Luck over the shoulder injury/non-injury, so I am not sold on him going to the Colts. Can't you see the Colts talking themselves into going with Brissett as their QB and getting the number 1 and 3 draft picks from the Browns for Andrew Luck?

Fairbairn good from 52.

Yates with a few checkdowns to Blue. No complaints here. Take the easy yardage.

I've been looking for the team to find improvements for Blue for a couple years now, but gotta give him credit. Guy's a pro and contributes in several ways.

Colts open the 2nd qtr with a 6-yard TD pass to Doyle.

Colts 7, Texans 3

[Arky]

Blue punches it in from 2 yards out.
