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?
Damn you vile woman, you've impeded my work since the day I escaped your vile womb ...
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.

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

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.

which is why they're inking a deal with Jeff Fisher, one of the great offensive minds of Tennessee

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.

What… I meant to say is….
What’s funny is Dallas fired Wade because he didn’t instill enough discipline.
Year and a half later, Dallas is still worried about discipline.
Memo to Jerrah: Maybe Mike Jenkins, Anthony Spencer, Terrence Newman, and Bradie James are just immature little dipshits no matter who the coach is. Maybe YOU’RE the one instilling the culture of entitlement. I know mirrors scare the crap out of you and all (I would be too if I had that face), but… just sayin.

when I heard he was going to interview, I thought it would be a distraction.
I am thrilled to hear he decided not to, however I do expect him to be pursued by any number of teams looking to upgrade, IMHO Dallas fucked up when they fired him, I LOL.
Fuck Dallas!
Beer, it's not just for breakfast anymore
You know Jerry.
Since he will never see himself as the problem, every coach he hires will eventually be scapegoated for failure after failure. He and that fan base SOOOO deserve each other.

wait, this is just crazy
Good news?
Aren’t we used to hearing about our most important starter who looked fine at the end of the game all of a sudden going in for an MRI?
I cringe any time I get a text from SR610 and it mentions the Texans.
TJ must throw 30 times for us to win.
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.
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.
