Since the Houston Texans are still without a permanent head coach and the team is now (checks calendar) halfway through the regular season with no real hope of making the postseason, one’s thoughts turn lightly to potential new coaches.
Some are pretty well known candidates, like Eric Bieniemy, Greg Roman, Arthur Smith, and (shudders) Josh McDaniels. There’s also a whole slew of up-and-coming candidates like Byron Leftwich, Kellen Moore, and Robert Saleh. There’s even talk about trying to lure Lincoln Riley or Dabo Swinney out of the college ranks and onto the biggest stage in football.
