Q & A with Mike Holmgren
-
I'm impressed that he answered so many questions so clearly and didn't play the political rope-a-dope routine. Another +1 for the Browns FO. I can't wait to see the draft and how this mentality translates to the field.

i'm impressed too, but too much transparency can also be a double-edged sword.
if you reveal too much you could give opponents a competitive advantage, as EM says, and if you get caught blowing too much smoke your credibility suffers.
slippery slope for MH imo.

Excellent interview and HOLY SH*T the guy will answer anything!
One thing that really struck me was his calm, confident, almost coy response regarding Wimbley and Quinn. Something like, "watch what what happens next because of it". I'm not sure this team has ever had a collection of minds in there like it does now. I am completely thrilled with this team. And it sounds like Mangini is his right hand man and I love that. I was worried trhat Holmgren taled too much but was hoping that was the arrangement. It seems like it is. It's a smooth, cohesive, and efficient group over in Berea.
What scares me is the Clausen thing. It seems like there is some internal debate about him still.
STAY THE HELL AWAY FROM THAT KID!!
I hope it's a smoke-screen.

one thing that's struck me as odd mopaji is how MH keeps giving Clausen the "no vote" yet is so willing to boost other QB's like Bradford, Tebow, and McCoy.
it would be one thing if it were just some opinionated fan like me saying it, but this guy is a widely accepted QB guru. his "vote of no confidence" in the kid could cost him millions in the end if a team regards MH's opinion highly.
like you said it could all be smoke screen too but if i were Clausen i'd definitely feel slighted.

Finally someone in our organization who can answer questions and not end up looking like a fool on a Coors Light commercial!!! This is so refreshing. I can't wait to see how the draft turns out this year. I think we are about to see a bunch of winning seasons for the Browns. I haven't been this excited since 87!

I am holding judgement on this until a later date. Where is the play maker WR to stretch the field? I use to be all positive and a foolish diehard. I remember how mad I hated rich4eagle on this board. Turn out that guy was right...
by the way i went to HS with Lady Gaga...

it would be one thing if it were just some opinionated fan like me saying it, but this guy is a widely accepted QB guru. his "vote of no confidence" in the kid could cost him millions in the end if a team regards MH's opinion highly.

There's gotta be sometype of agenda, even if Mike didn't like him its not like him to critize a young college athlete. Either he likes him and doesn't want people to beleive he would take him at 7 so they dont trade up in front of us, or he's saying it so teams will trade up with us knowing we dont want him. If they think we want him then there not going to trade with us, there going to trade up in front of us. Bye saying we dont want him it makes us ideal trading partners for someone who does if our player isnt there at 7

It seems to me that they may be setting the stage in case Berry goes and Clausen falls. They will probably want to get out of that pick and if teams think they may take Clausen, the trade offers will be much better. He may have realized he revealed too much when he said "I wish I liked him more" and tried to backtrack a little bit.

Do people actually think your cool when you tell them that or is it just you trying to find some way to feel special? You do realize that half the people here have no clue who she is seeing as how this is a football forum and all.
