    After Wade Phillips joined the Texans, their defense finally became legit, and for that, he is our 2011 coordinator of the year, he received 15 votes to 49ers defensive coordinator Vic Fangio’s six and Ravens defensive coordinator Chuck Pagano’s four. Pagano was named head coach of the Colts this week. Defense, or lack of it, had been the main thing keeping Houston from becoming a playoff team. In 2010, the Texans gave up at least 30 points in half of their games, they allowed an average of 26.7 points per game, 29th in the NFL. They needed an emergency makeover. They hired Phillips, a former Cowboys head coach who found a nice landing spot farther south in Texas.

    Some coaches are better as coordinators and not head coaches. Wade did an awesome job with the Texans. :beer:
