    It seems that every regime that comes along fires everybody except him.

    Under Chud we had the Patriots beat. All we had to do was recover the onside kick. I'm sitting there in the stands with my son...and all of a sudden the Patriots were ready to kick and I'm like, What the freak is going on? We had two little huddles of players at each sideline. I said, They're gonna kick it right up the middle and recover it! Which of course they did...and beat us.

    Then Sunday, for the fake punt, he puts the long snapper and the punter on the left side of the line to block (which neither guy does for a living). He might as well have put two Andy Lees over there. Not to mention we only had only 10 guys on the field.

    Now, I know that both Chud and Hue had to sign off on those plays, so farts on them too......but I just can't figure out the love affair everybody HAS with that guy.

          Who knows if that was Tabor design or not it seems to me that something that Hue would design from watching his offense through the first 5 games. You put your punter on the end of the line....is that really even considered a fake punt?

            When that play happened, I went ballistic. I would have fired hua on the spot. I just hope to see a competent NFL team this year. I really haven't even seen solid fundamental football. One freaking game and it's draft talk. Pfffft

              I like Tabor. Seems to be on 9 Red Bulls on game day sidelines & full of enthusiasm..The onside kick in N.England never happens if the refs don't F us & give another gift to Robert Kraft's "Factory of Godliness"

                  Watch Hues presser on topic & HC HueJax HAS TO take blame if that's what your looking for? Tabor is on Hue's staff till the day they take Hues keys. Cause they(coaches) will all go..Damn we know that routine

                    I was referring to the Patriots game. Hue wasn't the coach for that gaff.

                    And yes, he has to take blame for Sunday's fake punt because he called the play. I doubt he designed it though. The design seems right up Tabor's alley. (though Hue certainly deserves fault for not saying, "What the freak kind of play is that?! Trash that thing Chris and go back to the white board!"

                    ...and apparently, ALL of the coaches won't get flushed because Tabor has video of Haslam teaching his cronies how to screw trucking companies out of their rebates.

                      Tabor's ST is the least of our problems since Chud. Apparently Tabor did like pussy kickers not tackling after the Antonio Brown face mask stomp kick. But Lee & Hue ended that...The whole problem with the fake punt was it took to long to lineup legally & the snap was far to slow imo. Never liked Gadgets on Week 1. JM's gadget play 1st season, drew 3 different penalties.. Gota luv Browns football. Cuz you know one of them boners is coming weekly

                        There must be something in the water in the complex at Berea? As soon as they enter the building they become brain dead. Belicheck left Berea and has 15 division titles and FOUR rings. I suggest they change the water filtration system and have Minnehaha Spring Water delivered for added measure.

                        How else do you explain Quinn-Weeden-Manziel And now Kessler! Who the hell is Cody Kessler? Who the hell was Justin Gilbert? The other 31 teams had never heard of these guys because Pettine and Jackson kept it "Top Secret" In fact, Gilbert isn't on the team anymore but no one has even noticed! The only reason we still remember Johnny Gin Joint is he left his wig and sunglasses in his locker next to his high heels.

                        The new directive for Haslam & his boys will be scouting another college QB. I wish they had professionals evaluating talent because that's where they lack the most. Evaluating talent is non existent at Berea when it comes to top 10 draft picks. They'd have better success picking names out of a hat. At least we would have a 50-50 chance.

                        No, it's not the water, or the coaches or even the moneyball sushi du jour.

                        It's Haslam

                            I agree a million percent. Haslam suffers from affluenza. He is in no sense of the term a business man. It was handed to him. Dee knows way more about running a business than Jimbo. He's more like a kid with a toy.....and not the bright kid either. His execs are robbing the customers and he's clueless. Randy did at least hire football people. Jimmy sez You don't have to be lonely at .... Or, let's play two

                              umm, yes...Hue is the play caller...so Hue called the 4th down play. But Tabor designed the play. At least that's my argument. Based on the cockeyed onside kick coverage from the Patriots game a few years ago it certainly seems like his handiwork.

                              Apparently NOBODY thinks that Tabor is the problem...cos every new regime keeps him. The freakin' water boy gets booted but not Tabor. He's a God.

                                    The facts of Tabor are on CB.com. in his profile O. From 2011-2015 Tabors ST rank in Top 10 of 32 teams. Your ranting about 2 bad play calls in 4 years.. Time to let it go O..Tabor should be Mayor of Cleveland at this rate 😛

                                      All our special teams ever have to do is cover punts and take a knee on kickoffs.

                                      Unless you count Pettine trying 60 yard field goals with Devon Hester standing in the end zone. There's no ST coach that can defend that kind of stupidity.

                                      I lost my faith in Pettine being a smart coach when he kicked that FG to Hester. Twice! (he got to see what would happen cos the Atlanta coach iced the kicker)

                                      And I lost all my faith in Tabor when he put his hands players on the sidelines so the Pats could recover the kick up the middle. I mean, even a monkey could see THAT was stupid. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I thought our guys didn't realize that play was about to resume. But NOO. We did that on purpose.

                                      On the 'somewhat' fake punt he puts the long snapper next to the punter to block. WHY? Why wouldn't you put a real lineman over there? So they would think we were really gonna punt? To me it's the players on ST that make stats look good.

                                        Tabor should be our HC.

                                          How 'bout Mangini as HC again?

                                          He had good ST.

                                          If the bottom of the roster wanted to be up for the game, the player(s) had to be good at ST. If you weren't good at ST then you watched the game in street clothes.
