  • 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.

    This is an awesome, awesome day.

    First of all, I want to thank that dude's mom for breaking the story.

    1.) Tony Grossi needs to be enshrined in the Browns Hall of Fame as soon as yesterday. He has cockblocked Modell so bad that the evil MFer may never see the Hall.

    2.) Randy Lerner grew a set of nads. He didn't make the poplular choice, he made his choice.

    Apparantley we are now rivals with the Jets and the Patriots.

    Not worried about the Jets.

    It's a great day for Italian-Americans, people from Connecticut, guys with manboobs, and 3-4 linemen.

    This dude started out as the copy boy for the Old School Browns and now he's going to lead the New School Browns to the Promised Land.

    Doesn't get any better than that.

    --Glad we didn't wait around for three weeks for Shanahan to take a shit, like Skippy wanted to do

    But it does bro, his name is Mangina!

    2009-10 Browns Prediction: 8-8

  • I can live with this move as Mangini is said to be highly organized & Ryan as DC is a wonderful addition. A Head Coach MUST be surrounded with able assistants or he is screwed. I think Lerner may have it right this time. I also have a sneaking suspicion that the GM may already be decided upon & will be a guy EM can work well with. While we don't really know what will happen, I don't think it could be worse than we have seen.

    Let's be open to a fresh start. We have more talent than was utilized this past year, so let's just wait & see what happens with them & whatever new pieces are added. I am very pleased that we didn't hire a tired old coach & got a young man who COULD be a long term solution. I am optimistic.

  • My bad!

    The Jets must have blocked Callahan.

    What an exciting day.

    I don't know if Mamgini is the right choice I would have loved to had Shanahan but I feel good about having a coach with some experience instead of training on the job.

    Go Browns in 2009!

    Jibz Actions4photographers.com I will bleed Orange & Brown till my last breath!

  • I like it a lot!!

  • We'll see but I thought he was the best choice out there when he became available...good on lerner for pulling the trigger. He will get us a ILB!

  • Mangini, who was against the pickup of Favre, sparred with the future Hall of Famer. Favre threw nine interceptions in the last five games, precipitating the team's free-fall. Johnson wanted Favre to return in 2009 and felt the chances were greater of that with a change of coaches.

    Reminds me of the infamous Belichick/Kosar debacle that preceded the departure of the coach. Not exactly the same thing, but it still evoked the memory.

  • Y'know, reading about the press conference today made me feel a whole better about the move. Mangini seems relaxed and happy and his responses seemed genuine. A really nice way to start.

    As for the stuff that really matters, there's a lot of reason to feel good about the future, the most important being the one Lerner cited: Mangini can hit the ground running since he has some experience.

    He brings discipline, stability and intellect. Those are a GREAT place to start.

    I'm excited!

    (What other choice do I have?)

  • The Browns will play in the Superbowl in February of 2011.

    :neutral_face:

  • I wasn't sure about Mangini, but after hearing his press conference today on the radio,

    that has all changed. He has a sense of humor, and didn't seem to use one inane platitude. Not once.

    Which is very, very refreshing after hearing Crennel DO it most of the time.

    Genuine was a great word to describe him.

    I figure we won't be squinting at the TV now during Browns games, while wondering "What the... are they thinkin?"

  • The one thing I like about Mangini is that when he drafted a rookie, he gave them a chance to play. He realy coached up the rookies and let them go out and play.

    He stated while he was with the Jets that rookies make a few mistakes, but they are excited to play and play hard to impress the coaches.

    I think one of RACs biggest problems was that he basically ignored our rookies. He didn't even want to play them on special teams.
