I thikn he averaged about 2.9 seconds which put him at 38th in the league. So there were backups that got the ball out faster.

Rivers was top five last year with about 2.2 I think.

Pep Hamilton and the 7 step drop. I sat in the end zone against the patriots where he had Andrew luck throw the ball every single down in the second half and it was a train wreck everybody in the stands knew what was coming.

It was painful to watch.

That was a scheme and personnel problem. Our personnel couldn't fulfill the scheme. Bad coaching, you adjust your scheme to fit the capabilities of the roster IMO. I bet that system would work with our current line. Plus if you GM sucks at acquiring talent, not much is gonna work.

But this time it was a QB problem. We don't have the best WR's but the scheme was getting guys open. JB just wouldn't pull the trigger. Rivers will do that, but we will have more interceptions also. We improve our WR's we should see a better offense with Rivers. This will also improve the defense because they should get more rest in between series.

The biggest mistake I think of that whole Grigson/Pagano era was letting Tom Telesco go. He should have been the GM instead of Grigson. I don't understand why they didn't promote him, Grigson was a rookie GM also with half the track record and Tom had a ton of experience under one of the best GM's in the game. Since then he has had a probowler or all pro in every draft he has done except one. I think he was the brains behind that 2012 draft. BC after that Grigson just went straight to shit.

I think Bill O'Brien is worse at negotiating contracts vs making trades. Reportedly $40 Million due at signing. $22 Million AAV. And Tunsil hits free agency again before the age of 30. Tunsil didn't use an agent - he negotiated directly with Bill O'Brien (although Tunsil did have some help from advisors)

More specifics on the #Texans extension with LT Laremy Tunsil, who blew up the tackle market: 3 years, $66M with $57.85M guaranteed (more than I initially said) with $40M over the first two years and a $13M signing bonus, per me and wyche89.

BOB is killing that franchise and I'm loving it.

So now the players feel the Texans are so poorly managed that there's no reason to even bother with an agent to extract what they want from O'Brien? That's funny.

Lol BOB. He screwed himself when they didn’t get a deal done when they traded for him.

After giving up that much capital to get him, they pretty much HAD to give him whatever he wanted.

Richest contract for an OG in NFL history. I'd guess something in the range of 5/90.
