Coach Chud Fired
-
Hoping? OK. But honestly thinking that is was even the slightest of possibilities that the Browns would fire Chud after one season is totally different.
Honestly, I saw absolutely no reason whatsoever to keep him. I want immediate results and 4 wins does not cut it. Two 1st year coaches are in the playoffs, another 1st year coach had 10 wins but did not get in. Another had 8 wins. So I don't want to hear anybody support they need to stick with Chud. He does not have what it takes.

Uncertainty over Chudzinski angers playersDecember, 29, 2013DEC 298:05PM ETBy Pat McManamon | ESPN.comCleveland Browns players reacted angrily to the mere notion that coach Rob Chudzinski could be fired following the team’s 4-12 season.
And when they spoke in the locker room after the season-ending loss to the Steelers, they weren’t even sure it would happen. As they spoke, there were only rumors about the possibility. By early evening, ESPN’s Chris Mortensen cited his sources in saying the decision was made and would be announced early this week.
The feelings of the players were evident, though.
“That’s ridiculous,” linebacker D'Qwell Jackson said.
“I’d be very surprised if they make a change,” tackle Joe Thomas said. “And disappointed.”
“I like coach Chud a lot,” said tight end Jordan Cameron. “He’s a great coach and he did a great job, and it’s his first year. I like the way he is. He’s a competitor and he’s a grinder.”
Cameron later added: “Guys deserve a chance to turn a program around and get things going, so (the possibility) is kind of shocking. I’m all for Chud and what he does, and support him 100 percent.”
Safety T.J. Ward, who could be a free agent, said the team believed in Chudzinski through the entire season.
“If we didn’t believe in him we wouldn’t have played for him,” Ward said. “You’d see a lot of rebelling and a lot of guys doing their own thing, and I don’t think that happened at all this year. It just didn’t happen the way we wanted it. When you have guys playing until the end of the season when there’s nothing to play for, you know you’ve got a good coach.”
Maybe not good enough, evidently.
Chudzinski showed little emotion about the possibility he could be replaced. Asked if he expected to be back, he said: "As far as I know."
He said he had no inkling that there was any front office dissatisfaction with his performance, and said over and over he would start this week making evaluations for next season.
“To start over again, it would be devastating, I think,” Thomas said.
“There’s reports saying that he won’t be back?” Jackson said. “Chud’s gonna be here for as long as he wants to. He’s a great head coach. That’s all I’ve got to say about that. I’m not answering any questions like that. That’s foolish, in my opinion. That’s not going to happen.” -

Only one first yr head coach is in and he has a franchise QB, you get bad QB play you dont win a lot of games. You run these QBs out there next yr you will be bitching about the next HC.

you want to use one breakout player that was left over from the previous regime for your springboard for chuds success?

Cameron had a career year, Haden a career yr, I think Dez Bryant was having a good yr until his heart issues, Skrine played much much better this yr, there were improvements on the team. Hoyer showed promise until his injury. You get bad QB play you probably lose its a fact. Yeah Chud could improve on stuff, I think he would tell you that but the trigger here is a little quick I think.

We lost a few games with good qb play, 90+ QBR play

There was some terrible coaching and clock management, especially late in the 2nd and 4th quarters. I feel bad for Chud, but we can do better...

I trust Florio. He's close with Lombardi as well as Banner.
La Canfora and Florio, as sad as it may be, may actually be our pipeline to legitmate Browns news.

I don't remember Chud being the 5th pick. I remember Kelly and doug morrone.
Banner and jimmy told us "he was our guy." "We are going to be patient and build for the long haul." One year? They know better than release Lombardi to the Cleveland media. Whether Chud is fired or not they owe us a fucking explanation on what they saw in chud and why they hired him in the first place. We were told it was a collective decision. Well collectively they were apparently all friggin wrong.

"Chudzinski grew up in Toledo, Ohio, where he pulled for the Browns. Chudzinski interviewed with the team on Wednesday, and was viewed by many to be a longshot for the job.
However, he wowed Haslam and CEO Joe Banner during his meeting, and the team decided to give him the job after interviewing at least eight other candidates."

One of which was only to satisfy the Rooney Rule, so I really only count seven of them.
