I LOVE Pettine being the head coach of the Browns
-
other than the mistake of starting Johnny Rehab against the bungles he did a hell of a job.

Pettine showed real class when he sat down with Shanahan and listened to why he wanted to opt out of his contract. Listening to Pettine at the podium reassured me that he's the right coach for the Browns.
I read an article on espn that stated Shanahan was an habitual complainer. He complained about everything even the food. Whether this is true or not he definitely didn't want to stay and Pettine was going to force a guy who was unhappy into honoring his contract.
I throw my support around Mike Pettine as do most Browns fans. He's tough minded, honest and fair. I hope that his input into this year's draft will bring us a Kevin White and an Eddie Goldman in the first round.
Last year we had ten picks going in and ended up with six. How about we use all ten and start building a playoff caliber team. We have a good core of players and need these ten picks to strengthen the roster. Not having a contingency plan when Alex Mack went out really hurt our team. And it showed.

I wanted to see Manziel start the Bengals game and I am a big supporter of Hoyer. For whatever reason the performance of Hoyer went south the last part of the season. The Colts game was a huge disappointment the way the defense tried to hand us the game on a silver platter but we just could not get any offense. I thought maybe Manziel would be the spark we needed. Pettine was in between a rock and hard place on this call. If he wouldn't have started Manziel and Hoyer lost another game he would be second guessed all day long on why he didn't put in Manziel with Hoyer struggling. The thinking being why are you playing a Volkswagen Beetle when you have a Corvette just sitting there.
Of course now we see the vette needed a tune up or maybe even an overhaul.

THE FORMER PROBLEM...OH NO!!!!!
THERE IS A NEW GUY IN TOWN

The Walrus wasn't the head coach however.

That picture of Holmgren just symbolized for me the complacency and lack of committment to winning I felt was coming from the Browns for too long.

While I doubt the average Browns Board post has much effect, accumulative fan/ media "negativism" can impact players making a bad situation worse.
I certainly agree. And keep in mind that the Browns board is a microcosm of fans in general. I have a fairly good friend who recently posted elsewhere that he could never root for the Browns again because of Johnny Manziel and the money sign. He was whining that they should change the name the colors the logo move whatever. Said that he'd start rooting for the team again when they started winning. My first reaction was to caution him about the door and his ass if you know what I mean.While I doubt the average Browns Board post has much effect, accumulative fan/ media "negativism" can impact players making a bad situation worse.
If that's someone's attitude then fuck them. Go out and buy 32 jerseys so you'll always have one to wear depending on who the frontrunner is.

It takes a certain kind of backbone to stick with a team during a long drought. That's what I see and like on this board the most. Very few quitters. A couple of complainers maybe, but they are still with the team. Exact same thing can be said about this team right now. There are some great players who are sticking with the Browns despite the problems. I love that kind of team! Every great team needs a solid core of tough minded players who just will not quit in the face of a bad scoreboard.

What is not to like about Pettine. This guy knows how to coach.

Fans have backbone....Yep!.....Exactly.....
And front runners quit when they dont see what they like....
Pettines a mans man....he would cut all the apathetic losers first day....

I'm still here and more positive about the Browns than I've ever been. And never thought once this team is dysfunctional. Mud posted earlier examples showing how all the teams deal with stupid bullshit. Browns are no different. They do have an uphill battle thanks to the media trying to put them in a negative light...but it's not there.

Rather than 32 jerseys, I bought one Browns' jersey, but it was #32.
