Crennel to stay....
-
As a Steelers fan, I can see the temptation to poke fun at bringing RAC (probably as Defensive Coordinator), but I personally think its probably a good move on Mangini's part (if it's true). RAC did a fine job with NE's defense. The responsibilities of head coaching are sometimes too much for people. Look at Dick LeBeau, he's assembled some of the best defenses of all time for Pittsburgh, but as a head coach in Cincy he stunk the joint out. I'm sure if I sat down and thought about it I could point out half a dozen or so coaches that are similar.

Marvin Lewis
RAC

Martz
Chris Palmer

Lindy Infante was a good coordinator who didn't burn it up as a HC.

It will be a big hit to the browns PR and not a confidence builder for mangini if they bring crennel back..
Steeler fags just want to see us get that mindless lazy lard bucket back as a line coach or even better the new DC so it assures we dont kick their ass and mangini starts his game in cleveland with hefty mistrust of the fans and likely media since they are whacking him every chance they get..
Most browns fans dont know who scherer is or how detrimental he has been to the browns program but if mangini keeps him the media will certainly let everyone know the sorry dog he chose has did nothing but unimprove both da and bq...he is a disgrace to this organization and a true steeler at heart..to bad the steelers dont want him back because he sucks..

None the less.....there have been many coaches who failed as head coaches.
Most coaches are selected after being NFL assistants....and most fail.
Failure rate in the NFL is pretty high. It might be luck, or lack of, as much as anything for many of them.
Take the draft.....that is probably 70% luck. By all accounts Tim Couch was going to be a great QB, and if he had, Chris Palmer might still be our head coach.

wade phillips and norv turner are both great coordinators and terrible head coaches.
I know - why do fans always fail to see this? Josh McDaniels could turn out to lack those intangible qualities as well. Even if he has them its damn hard to assert them at age 32 (though John Madden and Don Shula didn't have a problem)
RAC is a VERY good coordinator. If he stays - and it seems that someone thought Lombardi's speculation was an actual report - it can only be good news for the Browns.

As a steelers fan, why are you even posting here?
To get your vaginal juices flowing and to raise the IQ of the forum.
Personal favor to ANTEATERS.
