  • Klint Kubiak would be awesome in Cleveland

  • Joe Brady?

    Former QB coach OC at two spots.  

    McDaniels with our media would be worth the price of admission.

    I like Joe Brady.  FWIW about McDaniels - he's done a GREAT job with 2nd year QB Drake Maye; but he's proven twice he can't handle being HC of an entire team.

    I thought it was Mike McDaniels not Josh.

    Mike McDaniels seems a little aloof and out there sometimes I could see our media not taking to that space cadet mentality.  And of course McDaniels making them look foolish - he’s a Yale grad without the shirt and tie polish seems like he has some quick wit about him.  

  • I just hope and pray they fire Berry's ass.

    Can't I wishful think it was ANYBODY but this guy (below)? ? I forgot he even existed to the extent I hoped or thought you meant to say Josh McDaniels. This is clearly not HC material so it only makes sense there's a rumor the Browns are interested.  His current players don't look like they respect him at all as a HC.  Seriously, how can they?  No emotion or communication skills. Whenever I see him on TV he's not acting as a Leader of Men.  Then I wondered if he ever even played football so I researched a little more and posted what I found below.  It IS the Browns we're talking about though...

    Not a fan but he regained control of the locker room and obviously player’s respect as they may end up with 7/8 wins compared to our 4/5.

    Thanks for your pov MDD; and they have responded since the Browns beat them soundly - so it's definitely worthy of note.  I don't question his football IQ/Intellect as much as I question him ever being an ideal fit as a HC.  We've always seen Coaches that were better Coordinators than HCs -(ie; Norv Turner, Lindy Infante, Bud Carson, Josh McDaniel, Dennis Allen, Dan Quinn, Brian Daboll, Robert Saleh, Buddy Ryan, Matt Nagy, Steve Spagnuolo, etc).  

    To me, it's conceivable that players on the Dolphins started playing for their NFL futures/career survival more so than McDaniel's ability to coach it out of his players. He'll be a good Position Coach/Coordinator moving forward under a STRONG HC.  I just don't ever see him as an Andy Reid or we wouldn't be discussing it...

  • Mike McDaniel? No thanks. 

  • McDaniel for OC, absolutely. McDaniel for HC, no way. 

    I have no interest in the HC retreads who got canned or are about to get canned: Daboll is an idiot, Glenn, McCarthy etc.

    Any interest in Mike LaFleur, OC of the Rams for HC? Worked for the Browns in 2014 as an offensive intern for Kyle Shanahan's one year as OC. Shanahan took him to Atlanta in 2015-2016, then Shanny took him to the 49'ers 2017-2020. He's been McVay's OC since 2023. I imagine he's learned quite a bit from those two. 

  • Plus McDaniel has struggled with depression and drinking. Being head coach of the Browns is probably going to send him into a weekly relapse.

    Him & Flores would be my top choices.

    On a somewhat similar note I suppose - this sums up Michael Irvin's New Years Eve Celebration after his College Football Team won:

    only because of the defense, that isn't Steflunski's doing, they won them despite him. 1 td vs the steelers, 0 offense tds vs the Bengals. and the Browns got 0 TDs vs the steelers the first time they played them.

    wait, that is a completely different story, of course that stupid deal screwed over the Browns, But not drafting olinemen and wr's they should have drafted has nothing to do with that stinking, dramatically asswholish trade.
