Jason La Canfora of NFLN is reporting that Houston is leaning towards keeping Kubiak and that Wade Phillips is leading candidate to become the new DC for next season. That would definitely help the Houston D as Wade is an excellent DC. Kubiak would then be free to focus on what he loves, the offense.

If this turns out to be true, there would be many here at MHR who would have to go back to the drawing board. Many of us had one or both of them returning to the Broncos as our ideal scenario. Not me, but I would not have complained too much. I am still pulling for either Ron Rivera, Jim Harbaugh, or Jon Gruden.
