Coach Pederson On Eagles 'Hot Seat'? Put Him On Texans List
HOUSTON - The Houston Texans are trying to pick up wins. They are also, very soon, trying to pick a head coach.
Our own Cody Stoots and Houston radio hosts Landry Locker and Mike Meltser recently detailed their thoughts on the idea of Philadelphia's Doug Pederson taking over the team, Jack Easterby's web of relationships for the next general manager, and what exactly does a search firm do?

NFL Network, as of Sunday's Week 13, is reporting on Pederson indeed being on the Philly "hot seat.''
Stoots' opinion: If Philadelphia made the mistake of moving on from Pederson, the Texans must pounce on what Stoots calls the "Pederson Plan."
Stoots: "Doug Pederson should be the next head coach of the Houston Texans. He's going to have the best resume. Now, you need some help for Pederson to even be in consideration. You need the Eagles to choose Carson Wentz over Doug Pederson ... If it happens this offseason Doug Pederson has to be the head coach of the Houston Texans."
While Pederson needs some help to get into the building, it is clear Jack Easterby will be staying around the team for a little while longer. Locker seems to be warming to the idea noting Easterby's web of relationships provides a good pool of candidates.
Locker: "I'm excited about it ... I think they're hiring a general manager who has ties to Easterby, which brings up some very intriguing names. If you just look at what GM would be OK working with Jack Easterby, the guy that immediately came to mind was Mike Borgonzi the director of football operations with the Chiefs. They both have the same agent. They were both in Kansas City at the same time."
