Browns Fans Need To Relax--It Takes Time!

Just for the record Lerner's shortcomings as am owner have nothing to do with soccer. He's screwing that up too.
Supporters don't like the manager, they don't think Randy spends enough during the transfer windows, they have a star striker that they signed last year who had 1big season and this year seams a bit distracted. Overall they question his dedication to winning.

At least the Aston Villa guy, based on just this photo, seems to have a little passion in him. Can you say that about Shurmur?

Someone didn't read the article
Firing a coach and benching a QB after a season or 2 because you don't see immediate results has set this team back years
Yeah, I did. All the coached the Browns have fired went on to do what? Have nice careers as coordinators? Jury's still out on Colt- but I'm confident in saying Shurmur sucks, and is in so far over his head it's ridiculous.

belichick won 3 super bowls with new england
romeo is the head coach of kansas city right now and just took down the undefeated packers
eric mangini will be a head coach next year....probably for the dolphins because hes a defensive guy that runs the ball and thats what they do down there
any other brain busters?
you dont have any patience.....this is shurmers 15th game as a head coach on a team that has absolutely no WR talent.....injuries galore on the line and at the running back position......a brand new defense for a team that was a 3-4 for the past 10 years
give him more than a year or 2 to get some personel. then he will help turn the team around
mangini was on the verge of turning the browns into a winning team in only 2 seasons but he was let go too early....had he been given a year or 2 more, the browns would've been contending for a playoff spot

I agree it takes time.
The question is how much time should it take??
It's been 47 years since we won our last championship.
I'd say that is a pretty fair amount of time. No??

47 years with how many coaches? 20+?
thats about 2 years per head coach
i wonder how many QBs have started for the browns in the same amount of time
the article.....which you clearly didnt read.....talks about giving the current organization time to get its people in order. you guys have waited almost 50 years.....whats a few more to help turn things around?

You can really be goddamn dumb sometimes. The Browns (and Cleveland) won their last title in 1964, when I was 12.
I will turn 60 in January.
Now, given that information do you want to look me in the fucking face and tell me to wait?
The fricking 49ers went from 6-10 last year to a Super Bowl contender this year with a new coach/system.
Why should we not expect the same results?
The Bengals were 4-12 last year and are now fighting for a playoff birth.
Why should we not expect the same?
The Broncos were 4-12 last year and now lead their division.
Why should we not expect the same?
The Detroit Lions were 6-10 last year, now they are 9-5 and expect a playoff birth.
Why should we not expect the same?
The Packers won the Super Bowl last year.
Why should we not expect the same?
You became a Saints fan what? 2-3 years ago? I believe you should now wait until at least the year 2060 for them to even have another shot at a title.
When the year 2060 gets here and you've been waiting do you want some young dumbass to tell you: Just wait, be patient. No. This is what you will probably want to do:
-
I agree-- the "I want it NOW!" attitude does not work. Cleveland needs to stay with the plan and build a contender--this takes time!

Probably the goofiest story and thread that I've read in months. I'm guessing that the author is not a season ticketholder.

Wow what a cranky old bitch
I'd be afraid to say anything to Ur face for fear of you having a heart attack or breaking Ur hip
You're mad because the browns haven't won a title but you support firing coaches and starting over year after year
The browns are constantly rebuilding because after a coach starts putting something together, he gets fired and it all falls apart again.
You listed off 3 teams that played a relatively easy schedule but have been pretty solid over the past 2 seasons
The 49ers have been building their defense for years. The texans have been building for years. The steelers took 43 years to win their first title but they only get a new coach once every 15 years
So yes. Quit bitching all the time and support Ur damn team you little cry baby.

Damn easy to support a winning team, frontrunner.
First, I don't support firing coaches at the drop of a hat. Can we trade you Shurmur for Payton? I'll bet not- because as another cranky old timer, I've seen enough Browns head coaches come and go- in fact, I've seen them all- including Paul Brown- I think I have a fair idea of what a competent NFL Head coach looks like, and Pat Shumur falls far, far short of that. The guy is clueless with a capital C. Thousands of Rams fans were glad to see him go a OC, so he gets the Peter Principle to really screw things up in Cleveland.
Sorry if I can't support a balless wonder who plays for overtime with 1:30 left on the clock and two timeouts, or is so oblivious he didn't notice McCoy couldn't even remember the plays after Harrison had knocked him unconscious, and put him back in the game. Waited until about game 8 to call a screen pass when McCoy way getting blitzed within an inch of his life. I'd be surprised if this doofus could coach the current Packers to a winning record.
So we're into two year of a rebuild- you think just maybe 8-8 with a relatively soft schedule is too much to ask?

Playing Devils advocate for Shurmur -
1. He has never been a HC, so there is going to be a huge learning curve. Fans need patience to see if he can get it right or not.
2. Short offseason for him to implement the system of his choice.
3. No one is tutoring Shurmur, he needs to learn by himself.
4. Bad idea for a rookie HC to also handle OC responsibilities. That just makes life difficult for any rookie HC, let alone a slow one like Shurmur.
5. No great players who they can built around. There are too many B grade talents in the Offense with which the team can do many things.
Anyone can think of more reasons why shurmur should be given time ?

I agree and I don't mean to be mean on Christmas Eve and all - but get a life man - just what I need some KID telling me to be patient....uh, hey bud, its only been almost 50 years..............

I am not an advocate of letting Shurmur go, as much as I think he is doing a poor job....because it may just be possible that he can improve and be something we think he is not.
On the other hand....a lot of those issues you bring up with him fall clearly on the shoulders of Mike Holmgren. Holmgren is Shurmur's tutor....and it is Holmgren who OKed the plan to go without an OC, and it is Holmgren who is ultimately responsible for the talent acquisition for this team....though I actually think Heckert is doing a pretty decent job in that area.
So, put this as much on Holmgren's head as on Shurmur's.

i wonder how many QBs have started for the browns in the same amount of time

Lets see.....Collier was the last winner.
After that I recall Scorich, Gregg, Sam, Marty, Carson, Billy,then Palmer, Butch, Romeo, Mangini, and now Unsurmer.
So that is 12....I am not counting interim guys like Robiskie etc.
If everybody had like minds, we would never learn. -
you lose, Canton.

Why won't you count interim coaches? If a new guy takes over a team mid season it almost always guarantees a new mentality along with new play calling. That can really hamper a team even more
12 coaches in 47 years is a ton. That's just under 4 years per coach and that's not including interim guys that didn't get to see a full season.
The browns have no stability so they will have no wins...that's how it works

Yes, it takes time, agreed. We are all getting impatient as hell, it sucks.
Look at the coaches Ballpeen mentions- only a few of them understood that in order to make the playoffs, you have to stop the run & run the ball, knock down/pressure the opposing QB, and beat the division rivals.
Unshurmer appears to me to be a "conservative" offensive coach, and that just doesn't work in the NFL. Marty was our last coach who could put a consistent contender on the field, but he also struggled after Infante departed, because we lost our "attacking" offensive edge. I've seen too many conservative coaches come & go here- does anybody think Unshurmer is going to change, if we do get better skill players?
I hope I'm wrong, but I just don't see him changing.

I'm not as old so I'm less of a fan? Ur as dumb as the rest of the browns fans.
You want to win now...but you've wanted to win now for the past 50 years. If you continue to try something over and over without changing and it continues to fail over and over...maybe ur doing something wrong eh?
The browns can't win now because they don't have the talent to do so. They dont have enough talent to build on this year so don't expect them to be relevant next year either. The point is you have to build a foundation and build around that. You can't just keep bringing in new guy after new guy and expect them to see the same vision the last guy had...the new guy always wants to do things his way
That usually means knockin them back down and starting over again
