  • Nickers,

    I agree. I think the answer is money. And that goes back to my claim that it's not that it is impossible to get a good coach to come to Cleveland simply because it is Cleveland. It is harder, sure. And it will cost more. But if you offer the right coach the right amount of money, you could get someone decent in here. What you can't do is try to pay some obscure assistant a reasonable salary to come be the head coach. If they want someone who can create wins, they're going to have to pay someone good a ton of money to come here.

  • Gus Bradley was the Seahawks DC last year. He was my favorite last year. Isn't Carroll more offensive minded?

    Chip Kelly went to Philly for less money, think he's regretting that decision? Point is that good coaches can make real good money in better situations, so a little extra from the Browns is not worth the hassle of coming here. The ONLY thing that turns this around is giving one guy the keys to Berea and say "you leave when you feel it's time and not before". Than "MAYBE" you get some guy to come here with the implicit understanding that this franchise is his for years to come.

    Fuck what's schotty up to these days? He still around?

    I've said it before and I'll say it again: Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson needs to be the next browns head coach.

    Doesn't matter, browns went to NFL.com , looked up the best offensives and defenses and decided "hey, let's look at their assistants"

    Maybe that's why we're talking about patriots, Denver, and Seattle coordinators.

    Serious question here: What lured Reid to the Chiefs in this past off-season? You have to admit, that team was a MESS last year. It's easy to look back now and say that they weren't in that bad a situation, but at the time, it looked BAD. Is Kansas City a dream destination? Do it look last year like they had a great front office? Sure, they definitely had some talent, but the Browns have some talent. The Browns have the league's leading WR and a few other Pro Bowlers. That's not nothing. Did the Chiefs offer Reid a pile of money?

    I'm not being sarcastic, I'm asking. I keep hearing people ask why anyone in their right minds would want to come to coach Cleveland, but let's explore that. Big name, good coaches HAVE gone to teams in dire situations before. Why did those coaches agree to that in those situations?

    At least hoyer knows a bit about the Erhardt-Perkins of bill b.

  • If we fired Chud for Josh McDaniels......omfg. Not that I think McDaniels is a complete asshole, I do sort of like him. But to turn this franchise over for someone at his level is retarted. Yes I spelled that with a T.

  • You shitcan a one year coach who took over a diaster ONLY for an established legend.

  • Waiting, I'm not arguing, I'm asking for clarification: The Chiefs sent 9 guys to the Pro Bowl last year?

  • I thought it was only 6 guys but I could be wrong.

  • Those six Chiefs are Jamaal Charles, Eric Berry, Derrick Johnson, Tamba Hali and Dustin Colquitt. Justin Houston was voted in as an alternate.

  • Okay, so that's not THAT many more than 4, is it? I don't know, I just think it is kind of strange that KC could get Reid to go to that train wreck they had last year, but it is UNTHINKABLE that the Browns could ever convince a decent coach to come to the team. It seems like a smallish difference in team situation and a huge gap in the type of coaches we are able to attract.

    I don't disagree. The team had enough talent to be in the lead or tied at halftime 10 times this year and still only won 4 games. We have holes to be sure but it's not like this is the 99 expansion team that got blown out week in and week out that year.

    Chiefs sent 5 starters and an alternative. Got a new coach and a new QB and are in the playoffs.

    Browns sent 5 starters and an alternative this year. Getting a new coach and a new QB, and...

  • The Browns next coach will NOT be Bill O'Brien.

    Mort just said he will sign with Houston within 24 hours

    "And they don't really know even what they're talkin' about And I can't imagine what empty heads can achieve."

  • gftChris, I hope you're right!

    But I feel like Andy Reid had a lot to do with that, and the talk seems to indicate that we're not getting a coach anywhere close to that.

    I don't think many of you realize how the Mangini firing soured the organizations image to the rest of the league. Mangini was so well respected throughout the league and in his 2nd year he had the league talking about the Browns as a serious up and coming threat after what we did to NE and NO, which are still the best days in the lives of Browns fans since 99. Shitcanning him has done the most to damage the Browns rep more than anything. Sports writers torched us for that decision.
