Texans Fire OC Palmer and replace him

I'm sure that there's more to this firing than just underproduction in the first two weeks of the season, but jeez that seems a little premature. The Texans have faced two of the best defenses in the NFL in the first two weeks and their defense hasn't exactly lit it up either.

I also think it's a sacrificial lamb thing. Palmer has a decent history before the new Brown's stint. IMO he has a a pretty good football mind - the CLE clubs tried for run/pass balance, but I think there was a fair amount of front office ba-de-ba present. Dunno...

 

Perhaps a native Clevelander can add simething here..

  The teams biggest problem is o-line, so they promote the o-line coach. Oh, the irony!

 

They vouch for Palmer for 5 years and then after two games, fire him. ummmm...no one's panicking....right!

 

How about firing the GM for a lack of talent on the team.

I agree. The Texans have spent their last 3 first round picks all on defensive players. They have ignored the chance of getting a young stud on the O-Line, who can grow and protect Carr. It is difficult to put all the blame on Palmer.
