2 day old news but offensive coordinator Tim Kelly will coach quarterbacks and call plays next season (https://www.chron.com/sports/texans/article/Texans-coach-Bill-O-Brien-gives-up-play-calling-15083477.php).

INDIANAPOLIS — Texans coach Bill O'Brien disclosed Tuesday that offensive coordinator Tim Kelly will also coach quarterbacks and call plays next season.

Kelly, who’s been with O’Brien since he served as an intern at Penn State for two years, is in his second season as offensive coordinator and has been heavily involved in putting together the game plan.

“Timmy’s done a lot of that,” O’Brien said at the NFL combine. “He’s a bright guy and an excellent coach, and the players really respect him. He has great knowledge of the whole offense from the passing game to the running game.

“He and Deshaun (Watson) have a great relationship. Deshaun has great trust in Timmy, the work he puts in and what he brings to the table.”


If we see Carlos Hyde up the middle on first down again and again, then nothing has probably changed..

Did Timmy teach Watson to duck out of tackles and run around like a pursued rooster until he can find someone open or turn upfield, because that seems to be what the offense looks like presently?
