Who the Heck Coached the Houston Oilers? A Deep Dive (or Shallow Puddle)
Let's talk football, baby! Specifically, let's talk about a team that used to exist: the Houston Oilers. Yeah, I know, it's like asking about your great-grandpa's pet dinosaur. But hey, history is cool, right? Unless you're a history buff, in which case, you're probably already bored.

The Oilers: A Brief Detour Through Time
Before we dive into the coaching conundrum, let's do a quick recap. The Houston Oilers were an NFL team that existed from 1960 to 1998. They were like that cool uncle who showed up to family reunions with wild stories and even wilder fashion choices. Then, poof, they vanished into thin air, re-emerging as the Tennessee Titans. It's like a real-life identity theft, but with football jerseys.
Tip: Read actively — ask yourself questions as you go.
Who Was the Head Honcho?
Okay, let's get to the meat of the matter: who coached these oil-slinging gridiron heroes? Well, the Oilers had a revolving door of coaches, more dramatic than a soap opera. But a few names stand out like a sore thumb on a third-and-one.
QuickTip: Treat each section as a mini-guide.
- Bum Phillips: This guy was as Texan as a ten-gallon hat and a barbecue pit. He was the kind of coach who'd tell you, "I've got a team so good, I could start eleven on offense and eleven on defense." Classic Bum.
- Jerry Glanville: If Bum was the grandpa, Jerry was the wild child. He brought a punk rock attitude to coaching, and his defense was as intimidating as a Rottweiler with a bone.
And let's not forget O.A. "Buddy" Parker, the original Oilers mastermind, and a host of other coaches who probably deserve more credit than they get. It's a long and winding road, this coaching history.
QuickTip: Scroll back if you lose track.

So, Who's Coaching Them Now?
Ah, the million-dollar question. Or, well, not really, because the Oilers don't exist anymore. But if they did, and you're still wondering, they're probably coached by someone named "Tex" or "Ace" or something equally ridiculous.
Tip: Don’t skim past key examples.
