NFL Fox reporting Browns are hiring John DeFilippo as new OC
-
Hey I'm taking a positive reaction especially after looking over all the retreads available. You know, guys that have been out of football for a couple years, guys in their sixties etcetera. Might be nice to have a young guy with plenty of energy.
I really would like to see the Browns continue their commitment to the run. That always seems to allow the quarter back to have a little breathing room.

I am real positive about what is taking place with the Browns. Good owner, good GM, good coaches all who seem to be on the same page. The team has some good talent that should be greatly improved after the draft with the Browns having two first round picks and more picks overall than any other NFL team. Hindsight is 20/20 but at the time of the draft last year everyone I read had given the Browns excellent marks for their picks. I believe these guys will do much better than we have done before in not wasting draft picks. The one really bad pick was a whopper though with JM.

“One of the things Mike and I talked about in our interview was if there's something these guys are familiar with in terms of a name, I don't need to change the name just because I see it as, for example, the play's called ‘smash’ and they call it ‘hammer.’ I can learn,” DeFilippo said. “Let one guy learn the new tag for it."
Well fuck yeah. This makes me happier than anything else in the interview - it shows he's not some arrogant 'my way or the highway' kind of coach saying 'this play is called this in my system, learn it or gtfo'
The more I read about it, the more excited I am.

Spot on... A coach adapting terminology to team makes so much sense, yet done so rarely. Just hope Flippie doesn't get too scared during his review of our 2014 Offense. One thing for sure, he'll form an opinion on Hoyer that'll influence our interest in signing him.
Also happy to see he's primarily a WCO guy who's open to the ZBS. Hopefully bodes well for some key assistants.

Too bad he wont have Sammy Watkins to throw the ball to.

WCO would seem to suit someone like Hoyer, with the timing, precision and shorter throws.

I haven't been real tuned into this, but has Flip, Pet, or Farm mentioned Johhny Manziel at all in regard to this hire?

Not that I've seen.

At first, I was like "just a QB coach"? But it does make the most sense. How often have the Browns tried to bring in a big name and it hasn't worked out? Time to find their way on their own with new, younger faces of the NFL. We like Pettine...so this hire makes sense.
Zips are the University of Akron.
YSU are Penguins I think. ..
WSSYes that's correct.

What I like best about this whole "hiring process" was that we were in the dark the whole time.....no Lombardi leak.....so to speak....
Tells me the whole FO is on the same page and working well together.....and is locked up tight....
If it was still Lombardi and Banner running things, there would have been ALL KINDS of crap in the news about each candidate, etc....
And if there was dissension and internal strife, then something would ooze out somewhere......

It was Shanahan that japped out on us.

Maybe we will get somebody as good or better in the upcoming draft. Kevin White? DeVante Parker? Donal Green-Beckham? Jaelen Strong?
Sammie Coates? Devin Funchess? Maybe Devin Smith in the 2d/3rd round?
Whatever. Quit crying over spilled milk.

In the Carr Interview he mentioned that DeFilippo worked with the OC to help develop game plans.
Also, DeFilippo was the an OC in College . . . don't remember the Team right off, might be in the Article.

Well at least Derek Carr, and Mary Kay, mentioned Johnny:

Good GM? Both the first round picks are busts...

Watkins wasn't even the best rookie wr. Odell Beckham is in the Pro Bowl, Watkins isn't.
