[NFL] Texans fire offensive coordinator

[RangerLG]

Heard today that the Houston Texans have dumped Chris Palmer as their Offensive Coordinator. Even though I think his play calling is a little suspect, I don't put all the failures of this offense on him. The players have to execute and that starts with the QB. David Carr and the rest of the offense need to think long and hard about their play this bye week. If they were going to do this move, they should have fired him in the offseason and tried to get Norm Chow from USC. Oh well, hopes for this season are pretty much dashed. Hopefully the Astros will keep my focus away from football. :)

Good move. Palmer is a horrid coach. The Bengals proved it, and so now have the Texans.

Carr as his share to blame. He played an horribly game.

True, but you don't fire players in the NFL. :p

Still, promoting Joe Pendry to run the offense? He was fired from Carolina for being too conservative. Like I said, I hope the Astros can hold me over until the Rockets start their season.

its the line, he has 3 secs at most look at brady he had a bad game too, if the line cant hold the QB cant have a good day. sacked 153(its sad :laugh: ) times and 13 times in this year.

yes, but a lot of that can be contributed to their lackluster O-line.

Man, we are going into week-3. That is quick for a firing.
