    more qualified than you or me OR bernie kosar. how many years has bernie put in as a scout in the NFL? (chirp. chirp.)

    Elway & Ozzy are really the only 2 standouts as both players and GM's.

    Keim was a lousy player but a pretty good GM (Arizona FO).

    Marvin Lewis was an ok DB for the Jets, and probably a better personnel guy than HC.

    Then we have Ray Farmer, who was a lousy linebacker and lousy GM.

    was a lousy GM? i think he's still employed by the browns. and btw the manziel pick was not his but haslam's. can people get that through their heads?

    Our pal Ray Farmer played 3 seasons and had 2 sacks, he was quite the player back in the day.

    3 more seasons than you + 2 sacks. thank god we don't have idiots like you on the browns staff. yeah jimmy, not only take advice from a homeless guy when picking our next franchise QB, but let some loudmouth fan from columbus tell you how to run your biz. while jimmy is the 'real' col. sanders, you sir are a cheap unfunny or smart norm look-alike.

    What? In my post i gave no suggestion to hire Bernie or other advice for Jimmy, WSS said he didn't know how Ray Farmers playing career went, and I stated how it went.

    In this way of thinking no one ever would be hired as a scout, because no one had done any NFL scouting before.

    More qualified than you or BK or myself...yes.

    Is he any good at it....NO.

    He was a lousy LB, and he IS a lousy GM.

    The body of work speaks for itself mik.

  • Ok Bernie lovers.....here it is....he says he can turn it around in 1-2 years or he'll fire himself.....

    1) Do you think he actually can?

    2) Would he get more "patience" than the Farmer? (or others before him)

    3) Would he need rehab, ala Johnny, before coming in?...(serious question, btw)...

    I know folks are talking we should hire Peyton Manning, so why not Bernie instead?....personally, I have no reason to believe Manning is GM material(or Bernie ftm)...

    .....but I do know Bernie knows football and how to use players....just dont know if he can evaluate and pick em......

    you make a great point...not sure if he can evaluate. guess the only way to find out is to hire him...mudfly, what the fuck else do we have to lose at this point? seriously

  • Ozzie Mewsome has been terrific. Why not hire some former Browns?

    @opal312 said:

    We don't know for sure if other former players will do as well as ozzie. At this point, I'd give bernie a shot at some position at the end of the season. Why not? Everyone else has done such a fucking wonerful job up to this point...Yeah right...

  • I think Weedon would do well. He has been with the Browns and been through it's QB wringer and fully understands what bad football really looks like. ๐Ÿ˜‰

    Sounds like that Quarterback everyone wants us to play...... ๐Ÿ˜

    I say we should put Bernie upstairs(in the box) and in the QB's ear......Then he can make all the calls right at the LOS......

  • BTW... how's the fund raising going to buy the team?

    This...he would be a better QB coach than a GM. I would want him on the sidelines though, yelling at guys when they decide to start joking around and laughing as they're getting embarrassed on the field.

    Classic stuff.

    If anyone thinks QBs coming out of college don't drink - they're still looking for reindeer and sleds in the sky carrying a fat guy in a red suit once a year. You should have seen and heard about what a party legend Jim Kelly was in a great college town/city like Buffalo. That was the QB Bernie learned from on and off the field.

    Drinking among pro athletes isn't even exclusive to football if anyone knows the Babe Ruth and Mickey Mantle stories. Some guys that make a lot of dumb decisions just stand out more when they do drink.

    Here's the thing ,if you tell a guy that likes to drink he's just going to be a mannequin - what's going to give himj incentive to stop partying. There's Brett Favre in Atlanta and there's Brett Favre in GB right? What changed? Empowerment of responsibility to the extent improvement witnessed was improvement rewarded. If they kept stopping that with "no, we need to see what the 35 year old Detmer still has" - what would have been the urgency to get him there? We'redoing the same thing with a first round draft pick nobody in our fan base drafted. He's 1-1 in starts this year while the 36 year old alternative is playing well; BUT not really showing me this concept of he gives us our best chance to win in a record of 1-6 in starts. Our defense gave him the ball at the Denver 39 in OT and we went backward about 15 yards.

    We have about 7 games left in a season where our defense doesn't look like it's headed for the playoffs - making these unofficial preseason games. I cannot fathom drafting a QB in round 1 you never had any intentions of playing. If that's not grounds for get the flock outta here - what is? They would have ruined Derek Carr just as easily overthinking what Heaven above was putting on their door step in the last 2 first rounds.
