    Same problem you had the year before. Poor QB play and crappy fans.

    The qb the previous year look pretty good in Miami this year , I guess he had better coaching

    You're a hell of a fan if you don't know he was hurt most of last year.

  • I'm not surprised. It was obvious Lerner liked him alot. I just thought we would get further in the GM interviews first.. Especially when Mangini did not seem high on anyone elses list there was no reason to pull the trigger so soon. Well.... it is what it is.. I am not going to bash him or hail him for the past.. But look to the future and judge him on what he does here... Now for the GM.. the draft and someone who can tackle the ball carrier

  • first, the things i don't like: bad clock management (again), inability to make halftime adjustments (again), emotionless (again), two-gap, passive 3-4 (again).

    then, what i like: not on his first HC gig (maybe he learned something from being in NY), his D got 41 sacks last year (more than twice the 17 we had).

    i'm very conflicted about this hire. i think, in many ways, it's a lateral move. we just switched to a younger rac.

    i smell at least three more years of mediocrity coming.

  • The only way this is going to work out is if randy doesnt play matchmaker with the gm he needs to play fetch the gm instead and go get what mangini wants and needs in a gm to begin fixing things..

    If it happens this way i have a good feeling in my gut...

    As for you jet fans go enjoy your faggy GM and new coach..oh thats right no good coach wants the job with an overpowering GM looks like shottenslimer is your man...😉

    LOL! The thing to remember in this league: a head coach is only as good as his QB. BB before Tom Brady was winless in NE and before that he only won something like 1 year out of 4 in Cleveland. The days of body by Todd Philcox didn't look any different than the days of body by Dorsey/Gradkowski. Mangini had the Jets playing winning football when his QBs were healthy in 06 and 08.

    - Tom F. (If he's off the pine in 2009 - I think we win with Quinn)

    wolfman as DC? a blitz-heavy, risky scheme that puts our corners in man coverage where they belong? that's exciting. i hope he gets playcalling duties.

  • In that same ESPN article:

    But by the end of his tenure in the NFL's largest market, [Mangini] was being called moody, dour and controlling.

    Remind us of anyone?

    Isnt that what phil savage was a overpowering GM?

    he made good on some of his trades but was not willing to delegate his power and that was his fall.

  • it is clear that randy lerner is only concerned about making a profit off of the browns and not winning a championship. he has made it clear over the past 6 years that job number 1 is to make as much money as possible. he has never understood what football means to this town and how much we are dieing for a winner because he is not a cleveland guy; he is a business man from new york. his dad was great for this city and knew how much the browns meant to this city.

    i have grown up my entire life being a browns fan while my dad and his entire family are steeler fans from pittsburgh. every thanksgiving it is 15 steeler fans and me all by myself taking their crap. it looks like i will be taking their same crap for 4 more years because mangini is not the answer. i love how lerner said that he was "impressed" by mangini in his interview. he also said he was "impressed" by romeo. the only thing to look forward to now are two things; one being that mangini may do something right and draft ray maualuga. the other being that maybe in a few years the browns will still be in the same place they are now and randy lerner will say the words we are all waiting for; "i am selling the team."

    this is one of the greatest football towns in america and we have nothing to show for it. it is time that we took a step in the right direction and rid ourselves of randy lerner for good. until then i will continue to root for the browns with everything i've got and take my lumps on thanksgiving.

  • Mangini was the best fit and probably the best young talent to be had at the present.

    While other former unemployed head coaches were to good to come here we will be glad that we didnt hire a Cowher or Shanahan they would come with to many other loyalties to other franchises.

    To me hiring a those 2 would be like hiring a Loyd Carr.

    Oh yeh.........and you got yourself another fat a** that will walk the sidelines with ZERO emotion or FIRE.

    Mangini's emotion and fire, whatever it is, will seem like Bill Cowher compared to Crennel.

    mangini is not a lot of passion, but his intensity made favre shiver
