Reply to Tom Brady says he is retiring from football 'for good' by NatsPapayanz

For some weird reason he’ll announce in a few months he’s coming out of retirement and playing for the Broncos. Then at an estate in Colorado Springs they’ll find dead Brady clones in water tanks. They’ll be dozens of identical deflated footballs littered around the perimeter of the estate. They’ll make a movie about it called The Press Tease…are you watching closely?

The Texans won’t be fixed in 2 years they will be at least a 3year build. So let’s say this guy has his team by year 3 and he still sucks after year 4. Pay him for 2 years and find the next guy, not that out of the ordinary, unless he’s like a Nathaniel Hacket

Also, for a franchise that’s had a quick trigger firing coaches and seemingly going nowhere, they are trying to show that there will be more stability moving forward. Like even if his W-L record isn’t good right away, they aren’t going to give up on him in 2 years (because they can’t). If they can lock him down and draft a good QB makes it easier to recruit other coaches and players moving forward.

It’s just a reflection of the leverage these candidates have in the market right now. And the risk teams are willing to take to get score a great coach.

The difference between being the worst team on the league and the 13th team in the league doesn’t really matter. Owners paying an extra twenty million to a fired coach is just the cost of doing business. Making a “safe” hire on “team friendly” deal is not as desirable as blowing a bunch of money to lock in a potentially great, young talent that takes you to the promised land at the top.
