I imagine that to you blah means 'not David Shaw' because although I have no idea whether he'll be any good or not blah is about the last word I'd use to describe him.

No interest in Shaw to Texans (exasperating enough at Stanford where he brings a ton to the table).

Record of former Pats assistants pretty mixed.

The line forms to the left for Shaw if he wants to leave Stanford.

Love Smith to Tampa with Jeff Tedford as OC and Leslie Frazier as DC is pretty interesting.

"Pretty mixed" is kind, Belijerk as assistant excused. Sooner or later one of them successes. O'Brien has a lot more than the Pats in his past.

He's well-known for F-bomb rants. The press will love to hate him as much as he hates them too.

And here's him bitching out Brady.


I can't wait until he sees the Texans' special teams.

Romeo Crennel as defensive coordinator? Maybe he'll be a great DC, but he was a horrible head coach, and he seemed to have a lot of shaky decisions.

He was a pretty good DC with the Patriots. I don't see why he wouldn't be a good one with the Texans.

The rules of distinction were thrown out with the baseball cap.  It does not lend itself to protocol.  It is found today on youth in homes, classrooms, even in fine restaurants.  Regardless of its other consequences, this is a breach against civility.  A civilized man should avoid this mania.

Romeo is a great DC.  He is getting long in the tooth.
