VIDEO: Bill O'Brien Exchanged NSFW Insults With Heckler at Halftime of Texans-Broncos Game
By Michael Luciano
Drew Lock and the Denver Broncos were able to light up Bill O'Brien and the Houston Texans in early December, taking them down in a 38-24 win that saw Denver put up 31 points in the first half. One Texans fan let O'Brien know that he wasn't cutting it, and the Texans commander responded with some sophomoric, NSFW insults directed back at that fan.

"No, you suck!" isn't exactly the most effective insult. Still, O'Brien probably thinks he won that argument. There were some expletives thrown in for good measure too.
O'Brien somehow managed to recover from that incredible low to "lead" the Texans to a playoff win against the Buffalo Bills, as quarterback Deshaun Watson willed the Texans to a playoff victory that has them set up for a duel against the Kansas City Chiefs.
"I said let's be great today. So somebody had to be great. Why not me."

It's never a good idea for a coach, let alone a 50-year-old head coach, to scream at a fan, but it's an even worse idea to fire back with such juvenile insults while your team is getting their butt kicked by a rookie quarterback. O'Brien should thank the man upstairs for giving him Watson, who makes up for a LOT around that organization.
