    Interesting choice, elite OC but I heard he has an abrasive personality. We'll see if Schwartz stays and if they get along. Seems like a placeholder hire to me, their analytics always steered towards younger coaches eg Mcdermott and Stefanski and also looks like another Jimmah overrule hire ala Hue Jackson.

    He will be 1 and done. Take Berry with him too.

    And remember... Todd Monken was the guy screaming at coaches on the field how the team was a mess before games back in 19 when he was a postion coach here... I find this highly comical...

    Yeah, just saw the tweet about Schwartz being pissed.

  • Here’s the silver lining today though…

    The culture warriors on this board won’t be whining about this being a DEI hiring.

  • Well I don't blame Schwartz for leaving.. 

    Watch Garrett request a trade now...

    So far 8 new coaches. 7 white. 1 Lebanese. So much for the Rooney rule 

  • All this time searching for Monken?? I hope this works out but previous history tells me he will fail. What an underwhelming choice. I would rather either of the other 2 finalist then Monken.

    This is my concern.

    Last year, I was on board with trading him, if the Browns could get value.

    Now, I'd like to see another HOFer spend his entire career in Cleveland. 

    I hope MG still wants to play in Cleveland.

  • I would have been happy if we hired Nate Scheelhaase instead, but this is sad.

    Silver lining is maybe this gets AB out of here and one can only hope JH sells.

    If this fails then yeah I dont think you can defend AB anymore. This is such an underwhelming move.

  • Coming in today, I think many folks believed the Steeler had made the worst HC hire. The Browns said hold my beer.

    "This indicates that Haslam was never comfortable with Shceelhaase and he went against the recommendation of his search committee leader and GM," - @TonyGrossi on the Browns hiring Todd Monken.
  • Jim Schwartz is OUTTIE!

  • They will be looking for a new head coach, and hopefully a new GM next year

    Man, this defense had FUN playing together last year regardless of the score which was a reflection of the DC that fell on the blind eyes of Berry & Haslam.  That's called morale.  Now that unit just watched their owner & GM piss all over their DC.  They just don't GET IT; and the owner of our favorite team is going to go down as the worst owner in all of professional sports. All they had to do was promote Schwartz and hire Monken as the OC; because Baltimore certainly wasn't going to keep him given the incompatibility of him and Lamar.  I don't have anything against Monken per say; but he seems like he'd be better under a strong HC like he was at UGA under Kirby Smart.

    We're Cleveland Browns fans -  unfortunately this is what we do get way too frequently with this owner...
