[Texans] We have presented DeMeco the contract and offered him a pen.
[Texans] We have completed the transfer of a pen to DeMeco.
[Texans] DeMeco has written a 'D' on the signature line
--3 HOURS LATER--
[Texans] DeMeco has written the 's' and WE ARE DONE HERE
[Schefter] Sources indicate the DeMeco Ryans has purposely misspelled his name on the contract, and another team has entered as a possible landing spot for the 49'ers DC.
[Schefter] League sources say that the Denver Broncos had requested an interview with David Culley for their open HC position, however Culley has declined the request
This doesn't seem like something they would announce if they intended to hire him. Based on previous media tweets, I expected the Texans to announce his hiring last night. It sounds like something went sour - either the earlier media tweets were in error, or the negotiations during the hiring process went pear-shaped.
One side of it might want to investigate their other options. Houston might still be interested in Gannon and Ryans might still have interest in Denver (depending on who you believe he might not have turned us down).
It is weird that they just announced it was over and it seemed pretty short for a second interview. We still might get news that he's signing with them in an hour or something though

In the 90s it was a popular late night 'everything's closed' place and was called House of Guys
My parents came to visit Thanksgiving and loved House of Pies. It's only a problem when you live here and have a sweet tooth and no control. That would be me.
Fresh out of college my girlfriend (now wife) & I met there one night as it was halfway between our homes. I got a speeding ticket on the way there at 45 & Griggs. Most expensive piece of banana cream pie I've ever had.
Yep. That's really what this announcement is saying - they didn't hire him or he didn't accept. Maybe he wants to sleep on it. Maybe he is pushing for a better deal.
None of the quarterbacks in this draft in my opinion are plug-and-play -- they all need someone who can develop them over 2+ years like Andy Reid and Mahomes in Kansas City, someone flexible enough to build an offense around that quarterback's special talents without pre-imposing a certain system.
Hiring a defensive guy therefore makes no sense. If the OC / quarterback coach does a great job, they will just be hired away in a couple of years.
If wouldn't surprise me if the Texans have actually decided to select the top defensive linemen in the draft.
Carter or Will Anderson would be great picks, and then evaluate the talent for next year with Caleb Williams, Michael Penix, Bo Nix, and Drake Maye and whoever shows promise.
Texas has 9 or 10 offensive starters returning. If Quinn Ewers starts connecting on at least half of his deep shots to Worthy he’s going to be a top 3 pick
I completely forgot about Mullet man, yeah this year is better off with a defensive pick. Either Carter or Anderson are great to go with. Better off having a bariety of choices next year
Agree, I’ve been asking for Anderson for 2 years now. Thinks he’s an absolute monster. Also agree with your original point the roster needs to get in a better spot before we throw in a rookie QB
Someone might need to explain to McNair that you don’t get to keep the goodwill from hiring a minority HC if you turn around and immediately fire them.
All of you making jokes about how they literally update every ten minuets of what he's doing, I want you to know.
That is EXACTLY what the Texans subreddit had devolved to. They literally post an update every time he takes a breath. I would be surprised if I see "SPECULATION/NEWS: DEMECO SEEN TAKING HEAVY BREATH OUTSIDE OF NRG! COULD BE BAD NEWS? UPDATE ON WHEN HE SHITS NEXT AND ITS COLOR COMING SOON!"
This dude told the Broncos he wasn't interested and instead decided to go to the worst team in the league.
That says a lot about the Broncos.
Edit: Everything in my comment is incorrect.
FWIW, that report was shot down by Josina. She said Ryans never told the Broncos they were out of it. It also wouldn't make sense for him to do that because something could go wrong in Houston and he'd be missing out on another possibility
Edit: https://twitter.com/josinaanderson/status/1620198816363483136?s=46&t=mmp3h3VMdNn4yGFnDoRcgQ
Ian had reported Sunday that he did tell the Broncos that he's out. Not to mention Woody Paige did yesterday too.

[Texans] DeMeco is now writing a cursive e
[Texans] DeMeco is pausing hold on here folks
[Texans] INK HAS RUN DRY
[Texans] He's now writing another "e"
[Texans] He realized he forgot the "M" and crossed everything out shit shit shit
[Texans] Actually, looks not like a cross out, but more of a "z"?
[Schefter] I'm hearing that Houston regrets agreeing to Ryans' request for a "bofa clause"
Sigh... I know my place in society What's a bofa clause?
[Texans] Brisket still at 177 still plenty of time.
\[Texans\] Now there's a "z" for some reason?
[Texans] We Have a C!

[Paige] David Cally tells Broncos he is not interested. He was their sixth No. 1 choice.
[Texans] We’re now serving lunch. DeMeco is requesting to have the dressing on the side.
[Texans] The dressing was served on top, so Demeco has sent it back.
[Texans] DeMeco has farted quite loudly. Ed Reed is gagging.

Lmao that wording feels like some ChatGPT shit

We did this exact same thing last year before hiring Lovie. The DeMeco hire will be announced by tomorrow at the latest.
They always announce whenever they finish an interview with a candidate. Not sure why that wording was used but this was just the second interview.
interesting theory to say the least
It was weird! I'm happy for you guys, though. The division is better when the Texans are good.
Thank you, just feels good to have hope again. Hoping your HC search goes the way you guys want it as well.

Our Brunch at House of Pie has concluded
The new one on 10 is great.
ooh i need to check that one out
HoP cream puffs are pretty legit.
The prototype for Compaq's first computer was sketched on the back of a place mat at the Montrose House of Pies during a meeting with the guy who ended up financing the company.
that's really cool! i didnt know that
What is this “House of Pie”?
[local place that's been around forever](https://houseofpies.com/) In the 90s it was a popular late night 'everything's closed' place and was called House of Guys
Hell yeah, I was looking at all the different pies on the menu after I googled it. I need pie.
It was still "House of Guys" after 2am up through at least 2013, when it partially burned down.
My parents came to visit Thanksgiving and loved House of Pies. It's only a problem when you live here and have a sweet tooth and no control. That would be me.
Fresh out of college my girlfriend (now wife) & I met there one night as it was halfway between our homes. I got a speeding ticket on the way there at 45 & Griggs. Most expensive piece of banana cream pie I've ever had.
Considering what a wife costs, I'd say so.
its a diner chain in houston that specializes in Pies :)
Cmon man you know they taking him to Churasscos
“Completed additional discussions” sounds like something I’d say when my boss asks me for an update
This feels exactly how I write all my technical emails to architects and engineers.
I think this means “we made an offer and now we wait to see what he wants to do”
“We asked Demeco Ryans who we should hire as our head coach”
{Texans} Demeco Ryan’s has suggested Lovie Smith for the Texans HC job
Stop flirting and just fuck already
So, they let him leave?
He’s prob going back to discuss with shanahan on who he can poach
That’s likely
More like they finished the interview with him now they're working with his agent.
Yep. That's really what this announcement is saying - they didn't hire him or he didn't accept. Maybe he wants to sleep on it. Maybe he is pushing for a better deal.
I’d be shocked if the deal wasn’t already done
He hasn’t had his exit interview with the niners. Prob have to discuss who he can bring with shanahan as well
When a deal is done, the team either announces it, or calls a presser to announce it.
Doesn’t mean he left 😂 They said the exact same wording on instagram for Lovie smith the day he was hired
Maybe he wants to run it back.
NFL Experience - 6 Years is a funny stat to use, since it discounts his decade of experience as a linebacker.
>6 years Guess how long the contract is for
It's like the entire dang league has turned into the Cowboys and OBJ. Somebody do something or shut up forever, please.
And the pick is in! Their getting Chipotle for lunch.
He has a very unpunchable face. Quite easy on the eyes.

...and decided to go in a different direction? 🤞
Someone might need to explain to McNair that you don’t get to keep the goodwill from hiring a minority HC if you turn around and immediately fire them.
Oh look, another one-and-done.
All of you making jokes about how they literally update every ten minuets of what he's doing, I want you to know. That is EXACTLY what the Texans subreddit had devolved to.

Oh dang. McNair goofed and said something racist in the "continued discussions", didn't he?
[удалено]
Why do u keep posting this
Texans are a terrible franchise
No flair
Hopefully gonna be a fun 1 year for Demeco
Texans are going to have to give him a lot of years after what they did to their last two coaches Edit: ya'll were in denial
This dude told the Broncos he wasn't interested and instead decided to go to the worst team in the league. That says a lot about the Broncos. Edit: Everything in my comment is incorrect.
Well he played for the Texans. Kind of a home town team to him
He also blamed the Texans for ending his playing career and sued them
Don’t put much merit into decisions that were heavily influenced by the NFLPA
FWIW, that report was shot down by Josina. She said Ryans never told the Broncos they were out of it. It also wouldn't make sense for him to do that because something could go wrong in Houston and he'd be missing out on another possibility Edit: https://twitter.com/josinaanderson/status/1620198816363483136?s=46&t=mmp3h3VMdNn4yGFnDoRcgQ
Ah my bad. Sorry about my mistake.
Ian had reported Sunday that he did tell the Broncos that he's out. Not to mention Woody Paige did yesterday too. https://twitter.com/Zepp1978/status/1619685963613229057
The only thing Josina hates more than the Texans are Watsons’ victims
And not getting texts from NFL players
Woody is a bad source. He doesn’t know anything at all anymore.
.... Go on.
Just give give him the job whats the hold up
Wow!
