BREAKING NFL NEWS – Houston Texans FIRE Gary Kubiak HEAD COACH, NOT KUBIAK’S FAULT! (ARTICLE BELOW)
The 2014 season starts now for the Houston Texans.
Saying “this string of losses is unacceptable,” Texans owner Bob McNair fired coach Gary Kubiak on Friday, one day after the underachieving 2-11 Texans lost 27-20 to the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Defensive coordinator Wade Phillips will serve as interim head coach.
The last straw was losing. We have a lot better talent than Jacksonville,” McNair said. “We are so disappointed and shocked by what has happened. … Gary accepted it and understands the situation.”
McNair said that he decided to fire the 52-year-old Kubiak while flying back Thursday night.
A search for Kubiak’s replacement has already begun, and McNair said Phillips will be considered for the job. Another potential candidate could be former Chicago Bears coach Lovie Smith, a Texas native.
