LOL

there has to be a reason why. Right? I think maybe Bob pulled him aside and said “Look Wade, I’m gonna give you a fat raise.” What’s the harm in interviewing? What changed his mind?

Kubiak and Sherman are close

And Sherman was also up for the job. So there’s one possibility.

Frankly, I think they were just kicking the tires on Wade, so to speak, and it wasn’t serious.

I was thinking that maybe Tampa had decided to go in another direction and this might just be a graceful way to bow out and for Wade not to have to waste time. I thought they had been zeroing in on Schottenheimer.

well lets take a look

other jobs open are Raiders, Rams and Dolphins.

Raiders – New GM will wanna bring in a Packers guy thus Dom Capers makes sense

Dolphins- Jeff Fisher is reportedly close to signing, contract taking long because he wants more power

Rams- this is the potential banana peel

by nigeriantexan on Jan 12, 2012 9:55 PM CST up reply actions  

Rams just fired a defensive coach, I doubt they'd want to hire another one to replace him.

Makes sense

Their problems are all about the offense, so they’d probably want an offensive coach.

Who’s to say wade doesn’t go PACKing?

by skeezy12 on Jan 13, 2012 11:00 AM CST via mobile up reply actions  

If Wade leaves, it will be for a HC position.

Everything he’s said has indicated that he loves coaching in Houston, but that he’d like to be considered for HC positions. If he’s not going to be a HC, then there’s no incentive for him to leave.

I'm glad that Wade has backed out because he didn't want to be a distraction and he's staying with my Texans.

But in the end, I hope for the best for him. If he wants to be a HC again, I wish him the best of luck in the future. He deserves the opportunity and I think every fan should support any decision he makes in the future. It’s the classic “what I want to do” vs “this is my hometown” dilemma.

by Tony Ung on Jan 12, 2012 9:20 PM CST reply actions  

Totally agree.

If I was Wade, and I had any sense of pride whatsoever, and every expert on football says I was a failure as a head coach… well, I’d probably want to bleach that stench off of me too.

Honestly...

My dad is 66, only two years older than Wade. Dad is in serious shape and healthy, but there’s no way he could put in the time to be a HC at this point in his life. Point being, I really hope you’re right, and it makes a ton of sense.
