    The thing is you MAY be right but don’t know that. Hues never called the offense for a roster that had talent in Cleveland. 

    He absolutely sucked as a playcaller, particularly in the redzone. Additionally he is the poorest clock/TO manager I have seen on any level except maybe middle school.

    You are right on the clock management I’ll give you that. I’m not even saying he’s a good OC, simply not convinced Haley is better.

    I don't know Jcam. We don't even have a big enough sample size on Haley. Plus Hue goes for it when Todd doesn't even want him to. Also, Todd has to get his plays approved from freaking Hue. Maybe just sometimes or all of the time, but I believe Hue already is acting power hungry over Todd.

    I say let Todd do his thing, trust him. DON'T make him get everything approved your way. DON'T tell him things have to be different or to be my way or that "I'm the captain of the ship".

    I equate it to when you work for someone, even in a contract job or short term, and they want everything exactly their way.

    Lets say you do something AMAZING. You've been doing it for 7 years. You've never had anyone question how you do it. Then someone wants you to re-do the work without pay with the list of 40 changes.

    Even though money is good, there's a good chance you'd either tell them to a) f#$% off or b) do things your own way anyway

    I think maybe Todd did that with playing Hyde more than Chubb. So Hue colluded with Dorsey to trade Hyde immediately. This, in turn, forces Todd to use Chubb more, whether he thinks he's ready to be a full time back or not.

    Problem is Haley and Williams are such large personalities, and Hue Jackson is such a weak personality, matched with a big ego, so clashing was inevitable. Haley and Williams don't seem to be like the guys who bow down to Hue's every saying. And Hue can be wrong too, but I've never seen him admit it.

    His offense was 1-31. Even though Todd's O has been horrendous at times, he's never came close to that. So before we cast him off as the worst ever, and banish him, just remember this is filling Hue's narrative, and helping him pitch his 2019 schtick of getting another year to make the team better.

    I cannot Deal with Hue coaching in 2019. I think we should wait the rest of the year to fire him, but I can't mentally watch him say he came here to win for years, while never winning.

    There it is in a nutshell. But I'd start looking for a replacement right now, not wait until the good ones are already taken. Dorsey should be given permission right now to replace him at season's end. He has already proven himself to be one of the worst gameday coaches in NFL history. No more evidence is needed at this point.

  • Haley or Hue does it really matter?

    Pittsburgh is averaging over 3 more points per game than last year & yards per play is up from 5.8 to 6.2 and that’s without Le’Veon Bell

    If what I bolded is true I would lean a little more your way. Not sure it is though. The one thing I will agree with everyone on Hue is that you don't air your dirty laundry in public. He has a terrible habit of doing that.

    You have and I give you credit for it. You were right about Hue. But with a coach like McVay next year, the Browns have hope.

    Hopefully Dorsey is smart enough to see through Hue.

    Still,

    I take no pride in being right about Hue. It does, however, frustrate me to see so man here hypnotized by analytics, stats, and talking heads bullcrap. My Dad always drilled home with me that my success, anyone's success is profoundly centered in discipline and fundamentals. I am not a football genius, but through blessings in life, I have learned a lot about how and why people perform and succeed or fail. Marty and Sam both had SB caliber teams, but they were both too focused on performance and not fundamentals. In times of crises, they always fell short and were dumbfounded. Honestly, Red Right 88, The Drive, and The Fumble.....and more were games lost due to the lack of discipline. 

    When Hue took over, the #1 problem with the Browns was a lack of discipline, One Training camps is all I would need to change that behavior forever more. One season is all it would have taken me to eliminate that cancer. Every year I go to training camp and every year it is the same thing......focus on plays, speed, jumping, and all the bullschidt that these players have been doing all their lives.

    These things are the least deserving of practice time. These skills are innate, a WR knows how to catch, an RB knows how to hit a hole.....Hue is stupid, and his players are stupid. Over and over, when they are about to get the ball back, or when they make a great play, they cause themselves harm. They do things like call running plays on 2nd and 1, or try to block a punt deep in the opponents own territory when the O needs the ball back. You name it, in crucial situations, Hue's players are the dumbest bastards on earth. When crunch time comes, it is discipline that makes the difference, not talent.

    Regarding Hue, I lot of people won't ever get my take, but as a business owner, as a guy who started companies from an idea,  the thought of firing Hue Jackson is so ridiculous that I can't believe we are talking about it. Think about all the heat the media have brought down on the Browns for constantly changing ship. Now imagine we go 5 wins. And we fire Hue? Fire a man who went from 0 -16 to 5 - 10 -1? Do you see the conundrum here? Here the Browns are, improved, and we are going to blow it up again?

    If I am the CEO, I am not taking the heat for firing a guy who improved my 0 - 16 team. I think Haley goes first. After that? I believe you would have a war between Hue and Dorsey. If Gordon plays large, Baker is just so-so, Barkley shines large, and the Browns are still a mess at, say 3 - 12 - 1 ? Haley will be first to go, then my bet is that Dorsey is gone. I don't see Williams ever being given the HC job.

    I hope the teams wins 8 and impresses. Then none of this crap will matter.

    I saw that first hand in Tampa. Way too much of dump it off for 5 yards when it's third and ten- or worse. there is take what the defense gives you, but it was frustrating. Baker was off on his deep throws. 

    And way too many dumb penalties.

    Larry, the quick stuff is good, and Baker is really as quick as Montana at releasing to it. The problem as I see it is that because the Browns don't have real threats, both Haley and the opposition play the odds, so Baker is screwed, he doesn't have the options of faking short, going long, and vice versa. You would have to be blind and stupid after seeing the first game to not believe that if they play near-perfectly, they can disrupt Ben and make a game of this. But they can't be predictable and they can't put Baker into a barrel of water with the Steelers armed with shotguns.

    Here is my take on Sunday. Steeler logic is probably going to be to play all type of zones and pressure Baker with coverage. If I am Haley, or Hue, or whoever runs the O, I would start my 1st offensive series looking like we were going to run, and try to rebuild Baker's confidence with the short game. RIght off the bat, let the bastards think we are falling into their scheme. THen boom, right of the bat, a play action or misdirection and get some yards over the middle, and go right into a hurry up. As good as Belichik is, even he needs an entire half to adjust. So st half pass like hell and use the run sparingly. Second half, then switch to a shorter, ball control game and let Chubb pound away.

    Whatever the game plan they can't be predictable and afraid. I always say no 5 Ol can block 8 men salivating on a short play.

    I don't know how the coaches break this horse crap, but they are going to kill Baker if they don't start getting creative and daring. I believe Baker had a QB rating of 104 + last week? ANd our O doesn't light it up? This is like self-immolation with this offensive coaching.

  • I don't think Hue is a good coach. I think he is a really good, decent man. I also think Haslam must have made a 5-year committment to him when he hired him. Why else would Hue be so calm and self-assured that he isn't going anywhere. I saw a story on Yahoo where Hue told reporters he isn't going anywhere and he knows this from talking to Jimmy and Dorsey. EIther Hue is the most carefree guy on Earth, or he knows something that we don't about his career stability.

    We shall see. 

  • So does hue stretch his record beyond 40 losses? Does anyone think his record will get broken within 30 years?  

    My bet is that hue never gets another nfl job after his stint here. He’s just flat out all around terrible at coaching.

    Problem is Hue didn't seem worried, came off as arrogant Monday, and said he felt, "no pressure to win now by Jimmy".

    That's an awfully arrogant thing to say.

    Regarding calling plays- Says the guy (Hue) who's so organized- he had to call a time out after the opening kickoff, for those with a short memory. Has to be at least a dozen head scratching calls besides- the latest being not kicking the FG in the second quarter against Tampa when you were down 16-2. I didn't and still don't buy his BS excuse.
