I found this article interesting, I think we're going to know who the new HC will be sooner rather than later.

On Monday afternoon, President Mike Holmgren talked with the Cleveland media about the head coaching change.
On Monday morning, Browns president Mike Holmgren relieved Eric Mangini of his responsibilities as head coach. Later in the day, Holmgren met with the Cleveland media to discuss the coaching move and also the direction of the club going forward.
The Browns finished their second season under Mangini with Sunday afternoon’s 41-9 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Under Mangini, the Browns posted back-to-back 5-11 seasons and lost their last four games in 2010 after their 13-10 win against the Miami Dolphins on December 5.
“I had the chance to meet with Eric this morning and we had a very good, but tough conversation,” said Holmgren. “It’s very difficult to say the least. I want to thank him publicly, him and his family, for what they have done for the organization and the community. We had a good relationship and that’s what made it so difficult.
“I’ve said all along and I’ve tried to be true to is that I would make any decisions after the season was over. That’s how I make decisions. I didn’t sleep very well last night. I never had to do this before. I like the man a lot, but unfortunately, in this business, I want to win here. We want to win here in Cleveland and we did not win enough games this year.”
Though the 2010 season has been officially over for less than 24 hours, Holmgren and his front office staff have hit the ground running in terms of looking for a replacement for Mangini.
“It’s a pretty wide search; we’re not limiting ourselves in any way,” Holmgren said. “We will talk about this every day until it gets done. Tom Heckert and I will be the point-people to travel and meet people.
“Probably around noon or 11 o’clock, we sent out request forms for a few guys and we’re waiting for responses,” he added. “My goal is to find exactly the right person for head coach of the Cleveland Browns and will eventually lead us to a championship.”

look im gonna get a lot of heat for saying this but lets be real...you dont win a superbowl unless you have ESPN's approval...look at every team who has ever won...espn loved them said they were good on the air, gave publicity to the team, etc..etc... i believe we need a coach to come in here whos got a good name tag attatched to him to get these guys fired up and make them think that every game is a sunday night game or monday night game...(before you yell at me there is a hint of sarcasm in my statement)

Are you trying to say that the NFL is fixed just to give the high profile team's the wins, the way people think the NBA is fixed?

I have also heard the name Steve Mariucci being bandied about. He is a WCO guy and a Holmgren protege, and he had some success with the 49ers...though he sucked when he went to Detroit, but who doesn't.

WRREBEL will vote from the library for Gruden when they give him a pass to get out of 4th grade Social Studies.

Wait how did you know?
-
Oh, yes, and guess who else's name I have heard: Josh McDaniels.
He, like Gruden was born and raised in NEOhio.

Fisher is just mangini with a brain...no thanks.
I like gruden but thats not going to happen..

So if Fisher is "Mangini with a brain," what is wrong with that? The guy has coached nearly 17 years in the league and his team is always competitive. He has Super Bowl experience and 4 division championships. The only thing Gruden has done better was win a Super bowl, and that was with Dungy's team...

He is a horrible judge of talent though.

Actually I'm starting to really come around to the chucky idea..

My dog just told me how things will play out. Gruden is too expensive at $7-8M per year.
Mornhinweg as HC.
Fox as the new DC.
Mariucci as the new OC.
Jim Zorn as QB coach.
....oh, and Michael Vick will follow Mornhinweg and come to Cleveland too.
The one and only time losing is acceptable is when it involves your virginity. -
I would prefer Holmgren, simply because he knows what we have...He has witnessed an entire season with the roster he supplied
He now knows what Pittsburgh and Baltimore bring 4 games a year...and what he's going to need to beat them
I could see him bringing in an all star staff (Ray Rhodes,Steve Mariucci,Dick Juerron,Jim Zorn) just to make sure he succeeds

I dont know about that, Holmgren pretty much said that when it comes to the new HC, money aint a thang

I'm pretty sure Lerner is the one saying money aint a thang since he is the owner.

Yea agreed. Gruden looks like the best choice at this point.
Gruden is clearly the best choice, but does he want to coach? He seems pretty happy doing MNF.

Yea and pulling in 800k a year. He will get 5 mil to coach a team he grew up watching, under a GM that spawned him, and has the ability to come in and finally light a fire under the ass of some of this talent.

Dude too expensive? Really, I mean really, your playing owner now? You can't even call Vick coming to Cleveland right.

You wouldn't want MV7 in the 440?

If it is Gruden or Fox, we'll know sooner than later. The longer it takes to announce the least likely it is Gruden or Fox in my opinion. You won't hear if it's Marty till the Eagles are out of the playoffs if that is the direction.

What's with everyone on Gruden's cock? He's an OK coach. Yes he took Dungy's team to the super bowl. Yes it took another head coach to get his old team to the super bowl. But both those teams had veteran players (especially at QB - Brad Johnson and Rich Gannon). Gruden can coach a team that has older and experienced players. He hasn't shown the ability to develop the younger players. Every year after that superbowl, they were in and out of the playoffs and lost in the first round.
Chucky is a decent coach when he has established players. I just don't see him being the guy to be able to develop young talent, which is what we need.
