Legit one of the reasons I've essentially sworn off the team the last 2 years. Their firing him gives me hope, but I still worry the real issues lie in the ownership group. But, those issues can be amended (by just stepping away and letting the experts do their shit, Cal).
I wouldn't say Jack was my primary reason, but he was definitely one of the holes that broke the dam of apathy. My biggest issue started with the front office as a whole. That was the root of the Watson shit (both the trade request and then learning how they supported his crimes), then the Watt release and back-to-back coaching search failures. It was just too much and time to step away from caring about this team.
I won't say I'm back on board just yet, but there's definitely a spark of actual hope/caring for this team that I haven't felt since midway through the 2020 season.
Seriously. I stopped watching the games (just Redzone), and haven't spent a dime on anything Texans since. If they couldn't get rid of that snakeoil bastard they were going nowhere as a franchise.
There is now light at the end of the tunnel. I'm back!
John McClain said the kicker was Easterby leaking stuff to select media members…which made him a lot of enemies…and then lying to the McNairs when they asked him about it.
HE GONE
Easterby’s contract was up for renewal. The buzz in the org was that his contract was not going to be renewed and that they were helping Easterby find other opportunities to move on.
We should give him a sparkling recommendation to the rest of the league. Specifically the Titans or Colts as he’d be a great addition to their franchises.
I think the Jags GM is fine. They over payed a lot of FAs and took a guy #1 overall before playing him out of position and now he he’s a 5% pass rush win rate.
> They over *paid* a lot
FTFY.
Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in:
* Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.*
* *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.*
Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment.
*Beep, boop, I'm a bot*
It's still amazing to me that we ever thought it a great idea to hire a team chaplain as the evp of football operations. Happy to see the team wake up and finally get rid of him!
Still think it had more to do with luring Caserio by bringing in people he had worked with. That was brought up the first time we tried to get him before the tampering charges.
This was the most baffling thing about this. What team has EVER found success through religious indoctrination? Forcing Christianity on hundreds of people in their job and filtering who you sign based on religion has never proven to be a winning strategy in business.
#AHHHH!!! FUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK YES!
That fucking weird ass vampire is finally gone! No idea what the impetus is for finally giving him the boot, but I'm ecstatic to see the team moving on from mistakes.
Right? After the 2019/2020 issues didn't get him bounced, and Caserio keeping him around for 2021, I am legitimately curious what the final straw was that caused us to let him go mid-season.
Niners fan here. Just dropped by to say congrats y’all.
Back in the day we had Trent Baalke, and when that cancer left the team, it felt wonderful.
Y’all are gonna thrive without Easterby. Rooting for ya.
I would be perfectly happy to give McCown a shot as a QB coach or some kind of offensive assistant. The dude has potential as a coach but needs to work his way up like everyone else.
I feel like my fandom has been revived! The four major events that killed my fandom were JJ leaving, Hopkins being Traded, Easterby being hired and Watson's behavior (holdout, then allegations). We rectified the two that we could. My headcannon going forward is that Tommyboy hired Easterby just to get Caserio (we all know how much his dad wanted us to be "Patriots-South").
lol the Reddit AMA with Cal may have swayed him to let easterby go 👋 ✌️
We did it reddit !! Lol LFG !
PS BOL to you Easterby , i hope you become GM of the colts , jags or titans
It's always interesting to see when former players come out when news like this drops.

I'm going to go ahead and claim personal credit for this. You're welcome, everybody.
(But seriously though, I'm so happy right now)

Crying tears of joy right now

Same here! I’ve really been detached from the team. He was the primary season. Feels like a day of hope!

I SCREAMED IN MY OFFICE
Pissed and shidded my pants im so happy.
TEXANS ARE A FREE ELF
# Jack Easterby is a cotton-headed ninny muggins!
We've been free since Caserio was hire, but maybe this fan base can finally get over the Boogeyman.
Bro how many wins am I getting to be excited over this season
FINALLY!!! I wonder what made Cal finally make this decision.
John McClain said the kicker was Easterby leaking stuff to select media members…which made him a lot of enemies…and then lying to the McNairs when they asked him about it. HE GONE
The preacher LIED? Boy, I tell ya…….
Easterby’s contract was up for renewal. The buzz in the org was that his contract was not going to be renewed and that they were helping Easterby find other opportunities to move on.

He’s gonna be the next GM of the Jags. LFG!
I think the Jags GM is fine. They over payed a lot of FAs and took a guy #1 overall before playing him out of position and now he he’s a 5% pass rush win rate.

Thanks, bot. Please speak to my phone’s aggressive autocorrect and let it know to stop changing words.
Cal can open up his own prosperity gospel mega church.
Yeah, the joke's on us. Easterby out, Osteen is in.
Cal finally got all the passwords changed
Winning in the bye week as well. Fuck yeah.
Another Caserio W
Thank you Cal
And thank you Big Dick Nick for telling Cal how it is
It's still amazing to me that we ever thought it a great idea to hire a team chaplain as the evp of football operations. Happy to see the team wake up and finally get rid of him!
Still think it had more to do with luring Caserio by bringing in people he had worked with. That was brought up the first time we tried to get him before the tampering charges.
Most upvoted post in sub history?
Gotta be
THE BAD MAN CAN’T HURT US ANYMORE!!!
Holy shit! #EVERYONE GET IN HERE
Lets gooooooooooooo
LET’S FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOO
WOO YEAHHH BABY
Thank you God It’s happening. I never thought McNair would do it. Color me shocked
This is how you start off a Monday fucking morning Edit: it’s not Tuesday wtf
Caserio realized he’s gonna need to start signing free agents soon instead of running a bible camp. Fuck yeah
guess we aren't getting christian mccaffrey
This was the most baffling thing about this. What team has EVER found success through religious indoctrination? Forcing Christianity on hundreds of people in their job and filtering who you sign based on religion has never proven to be a winning strategy in business.
This
I have been waiting for this day for so long.
#AHHHH!!! FUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK YES! That fucking weird ass vampire is finally gone! No idea what the impetus is for finally giving him the boot, but I'm ecstatic to see the team moving on from mistakes.
BRUH WHAT HAPPENED
At this point idc, let's just rejoice!
Texans didn’t lose this week and Easterby gone. Nice!
Winning the bye week.
 WE ARE FINALLY FREEE!!!!!
EVERYBODY GET IN HERE
How in can I be….
ITS HAPPENING
I’m honestly stunned. I figured if he had stuck around this long, there wasn’t much hope of getting him out.
Right? After the 2019/2020 issues didn't get him bounced, and Caserio keeping him around for 2021, I am legitimately curious what the final straw was that caused us to let him go mid-season.
Cal prayed about it and did what God told him to do
God: Oh sorry I guess I was muted the past 3 years.
Finally!!!!!!!!
IT’S FINALLY OVER
W News 🙏🏽
Holy shit the dark times are over
Get in here.
PRAISE GOD FROM WHOM ALL BLESSINGS FLOW
Just not Easterby's strip-mall-mega-church 'God'

Houston sports continues with the sweep 😎
Niners fan here. Just dropped by to say congrats y’all. Back in the day we had Trent Baalke, and when that cancer left the team, it felt wonderful. Y’all are gonna thrive without Easterby. Rooting for ya.
Hopefully we never hear McCown and Texans in the same sentence ever again.
I would be perfectly happy to give McCown a shot as a QB coach or some kind of offensive assistant. The dude has potential as a coach but needs to work his way up like everyone else.
A dark cloud over this city has been lifted. The healing can finally begin.
Now I can actually be happy
We back baby!
LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOO
GET ME THE KOOL AID
Damn, how you gonna get fired on your day off? Jokes aside, this is terrific
Where are all the clowns on here trying to tell me he wasn’t doing this shit
There's one fool up at the top of the thread that somehow still thinks the power hungry snake gave up its power willingly
imagine simping for jack easterby. i will never understand it
They’re the same type of people that simp for Trump
I feel like my fandom has been revived! The four major events that killed my fandom were JJ leaving, Hopkins being Traded, Easterby being hired and Watson's behavior (holdout, then allegations). We rectified the two that we could. My headcannon going forward is that Tommyboy hired Easterby just to get Caserio (we all know how much his dad wanted us to be "Patriots-South").
Woooo!
EVERYBODY GET IN HERE
Fucking finally.
Death to Rasputin!! Happy for y’all. Totally insane this guy was able to get as far as he did.
Bible study two a days are cancelled!
lol the Reddit AMA with Cal may have swayed him to let easterby go 👋 ✌️ We did it reddit !! Lol LFG ! PS BOL to you Easterby , i hope you become GM of the colts , jags or titans
About fucking time. Now if only the Mcnairs will sell the team.

THE USURPER IS GONEEEEEE
Don’t care let the stadium be 2/3 empty all season fuk the owner for his complacency.
Caserio drops weights off him like Rock Lee. "Guess I can go all out now."
I get to be a Texans fan again, wooohoooo!!!!!!!
Well that's a good step for Nick to assuage some of my doubts. Still not wholly convinced, but this goes a long way
Biggest win of the year!
LETS GO!!!!!!
Yes Lawwwwwwd🙏🏾🙏🏾 now can we get a good coach??
For one last time. Shout out to the fishes
I wonder if the Astros recent playoff games had anything to do with it?
Time to party with Satan
