Wade Phillips as DC? Officially Fired in Houston

[penbrook]

Sutton refuses to make in game adjustments. Let's face it he needs to be gone.

There is a very good DC in Wade Phillips on the market. He had a top 5 defense in the TEXANS. Anybody say we should give him a look that's if Sutton is fired.

[The Bad Guy]

You're living in a fantasy land if you think Reid is going to fire him.

Wade or Horton

I just said I'm not in his corner, but you probably want an ass-kissing about it.

There's nothing worse than self-righteous dickbags who want to pound their chest for approval or to gain kudos or some shit because they made the right call months ago. I'm a fan of this fucking team and the last thing anyone should be doing now is a bunch of "I told you so's".

Maybe you can shove the other end of the shovel up your own ass.

I agree also.

Maybe he could just retire. He has to know he sucks.

Does this mean he'll be hired?

Yes, I can.

Shove one end of the shovel up your mother's vagina, and shove the other end of the shove up your own buttocks. Better?

[BossChief]

I'm not sure the problem on defense is all on Sutton.

It's hard to run a defense with only one good safety and none that have shown to truly excel in coverage.

Our safeties are flat out terrible.

[TEX]

Wade is a GOOD one! Id welcome it.

I'm not sure the problem on defense is all on Sutton.

Then he has to adjust. I agree that he doesn't have all-world talent at safety, but when he's pulling Cooper and pulling Demps, Lewis should have been pulled from that post months ago and Abdullah put there.

Lewis has been a liability for the entire year.

I'm pretty sure they'll have en extension done with him before he comes due. I think 50's extension is top on the list right now.

I'd be very surprised to see Tyson Jackson back here.

[Jimmya]

So if we don't replace the safeties will you still support Sutton?

It only took us until today to replace Berry with Abdullah as the Mike in our dime and move him back to safety.

Good move if Lewis/Demps weren't just horrific today.

[Jimmya]

I do agree with badguy. ...He must adjust.

Lewis has been a liability for the entire year.

Abdullah not being the teams starter by mid season is equally as puzzling as Powe not even being active at all. It seems Abdullah was on the field more today...look what happened.

Some of these moves are what make me point some of the blame at Sutton. He should have made those adjustments months ago. You could see at almost any practice at training camp that Dunta and Lewis were gonna be the weak links.

[The Bad Guy]

It only took us until today to replace Berry with Abdullah as the Mike in our dime and move him back to safety.

Good move if Lewis/Demps weren't just horrific today.

My problem with that is, Berry looked lost doing it. He did not look comfortable playing deep and was out of position a bunch. It's like he just moves people in games that haven't received reps there.

Berry really had an awful game too.

Why not give Ron Parker extended time today?

[The Bad Guy]

Abdullah has to be kept. He's been a fantastic player when given opportunity.

Demps, Lewis, Robinson can all pack their shit and GTFO.

Tyson Jackson really isn't needed with Bailey and Catapano seeing increased reps. Draft a big 5-tech later in the draft to occupy blockers.

[dannybcaitlyn]

I'm not sure the problem on defense is all on Sutton.

He could make adjustments. Hilton destroyed us and was the only real threat receiver wise the Colts had and yet Suttton doesn't call for double coverage on the guy. Just like decker in Denver.

IMO this loss goes on the trio of Lewis/Demps/Robinson

Those three embarrassed us today.

I don't think he'd be active on gameday then. Reid is a huge practice like you play guy.

Just makes no sense. One of the real playmakers in the secondary gets mop up duty when he's played great every chance he's gotten.

[penbrook]

So apparently Johnson said the Chiefs D let up in the second half

[BossChief]

That's just choosing to get shot in the chest instead of in the face.

Berry was absolutely bad today. He's not a free safety like so many people around here think.

He's an excellent box strong safety.

And moving him into the mid/deep second level, an area where he hasn't played all season was puzzling at best.

Sutton blew this game in a big way on numerous levels with his play calling and schemes.

Absolutely horrible.

[penbrook]

Per KC Star

Johnson said players were imploring others all along to play to the end, to play four quarters and to not let up.

“Guess,” he said softly, “we let up.”

Then as the leader of the defense, that's on him too.

[FRCDFED]

So if we don't replace the safeties will you still support Sutton?
Dude...get off his ass! Sutton sucks! We get it. Now STFU about it!

[dannybcaitlyn]

So apparently Johnson said the Chiefs D let up in the second half

So Sutton is ole school , plays soft zone and prevent defense. While most of the modern coordinators are pinning their ears back going after the QB if they have a huge lead.

[Titty Meat]

Then as the leader of the defense, that's on him too.

One thing that's been really obvious and Robinsons comments after the game confirmed: There are no leaders on defense. There aren't many on this team in general.

[The Bad Guy]

I think Smith and Albert are the leaders on offense.

Berry talks a big game in the media about being a leader but I didn't see him today in anyone's face.

I think they got their egos pumped up beating shitty QBs the first 9 weeks and continued to carry that swagger against Manning, Rivers and Luck and got their shit pushed in.

[Discuss Thrower]

Then as the leader of the defense, that's on him too.

I remember hearing from one of the AM shows that he hurried the fuck out of the lockerroom after one of the losses.. I think it was the last Denver game.

Thought that was particularly telling.

I think DJ and Hali's comments have a lot to do with the playcallng.

Did Sutton give any comments?

Everybody did, but Cooper.

He was the only defensive player to interview after the game iirc.

Wade Phillips fired as Texans DC


Updated: January 4, 2014, 6:35 PM ET

By Tania Ganguli | ESPN.com

HOUSTON -- Texans defensive coordinator Wade Phillips met with new head coach Bill O'Brien on Saturday and was fired from the position he took over following the 2010 season.

Phillips reacted to the move on Twitter:

Phillips served as interim head coach for the Texans' final three games of the 2013 season after head coach Gary Kubiak was fired. He interviewed for the Texans' head coaching vacancy two weeks ago.

Houston finished a league-worst 2-14, losing its three games under Phillips.

O'Brien is having short meetings with members of the Texans staff Saturday. According to one person familiar with the meetings, he is informing them that he plans to replace the staff with one of his own choosing.

Offensive coordinator Rick Dennison was fired after his meeting, according to the Houston Chronicle.

Defensive backs coach Vance Joseph, running backs coach Chick Harris and assistant defensive backs coach Perry Carter have also had their meetings already.

Quarterbacks coach Karl Dorrell and linebackers coach Reggie Herring have reportedly met with O'Brien as well.

Sources said O'Brien is planning to hire former Browns and Chiefs coach Romeo Crennel as his defensive coordinator. Like O'Brien, Crennel was a coordinator for the Patriots, though the two did not work in New England at the same time.

Crennel, though, has not decided whether he wants to return to coaching for next season, an NFL source told ESPN.

Crennel has one year left on his deal with the Chiefs valued at $3.5 million. And because the deal contains offset language, he would not earn two paychecks as long as any salary did not eclipse $3.5 million.

O'Brien also plans to bring Jim Bernhardt to Houston. Bernhardt served as the special assistant to the head coach and director of player development at Penn State when O'Brien was the head coach there. They have known each other since O'Brien was in college at Brown.

[Mr. Flopnuts]

I realize this is a Q, but I was confused and went searching for the info, so I figured I'd post it and change the thread title. Save time for the next poor schlep who didn't already know.

[SilentHell]

Wade Phillips, arch rival........Hire him. Eff it.

[BossChief]

I'm a big Wade Phillips as DC fan and have wanted him here in that role for years...but it's not gonna happen.

Boss, our first half defense was okay. Dunta was getting crushed. What did Sutton do? He adjusted. He was mixing rotational guys in. He took Dunta out and subbed in Parker, and put cooper back on the outside. We were blitzing and we got enough pressure on luck to force his hand. We got creative with personnel. Etc...

What happened the third quarter has me completely at a loss. As painful as it may be, you need to rewatch. Four base dline men rushing on every play, no stunts, no dline men I'm coverage, no blitzes, no lady even Faking blitz. And even when we got gashed on five plays, we continued this nonsense. This second half bloody rotting corpse Vagina of a defense was some of the worst scheming I've ever seen in a playoff game.

Face it, the Chiefs defense was predicated on stuffing the run and not giving Qb's time to throw, BECAUSE the coaching staff knew we had a strong safety that is only adequate in coverage, a questionable FS and even more limited players behind him.
