Houston coach Lovie Smith and Indianapolis interim coach Jeff Saturday may have called their final shots Sunday.
32-31 victory
“I meet with Cal every Monday. We talk about what’s happening the last game,” Smith said when asked about whether he thinks the Texans' chairman and CEO will bring him back. “We understand the totality of the season. Do I expect to be back? Yeah, I expect to be back, absolutely.”If so, it would mark the second consecutive year Houston pulled the plug on a first-year coach.
Irsay has said he will consider Saturday in the hiring process even though the results were not noticeably different., four of them coming after blowing late leads including an embarrassing and historic collapse at Minnesota when the Vikings rallied from a 33-0 halftime deficit to win 39-36 in overtime.
“Really kind of the story of our season, right, is that we play, give ourselves a shot, and unfortunately at the end we didn’t close it out,” Saturday said.
