Gregg Williams interim head coach
-
The explain yourself why an interim HC (with previous- though poor) HC-ing experience wouldn't be granted an extension if he went 6-2 with a team that was in a death spiral before he took over? Damn, Hue got a second chance going 8-8 with the Raiders, and I doubt you forgot Williams coached a SB level defense.
Haslam left the door open- and I second the motion. If the team continues to suck and blows close games, sure Williams is gone. Otherwise- not so fast my friend.
In the middle of the 1984 season, Sam Rutigliano was fired, as we were in the middle of a brutal losing streak. Sam was a great guy....a "players coach". He was replaced by the current defensive coordinator, who was more of a disciplinarian. The team immediately responded to that interim HC. Anybody remember that?

Yep, they started out 1-7, and after Sam was fired they went 4-4....And then they went on to win the division the next 3 years in a row.

I have the Patriots on line 1 for you, sir.
That’s due to injury. It’s been Michel nigh on all the way when he’s been healthy

It became Michel after Burkhead was put on IR... but in recent seasons Bill seems to some home to White.
Comment was not just for this season, but many past seasons when the Pats have taken a true, RB-by-committee approach. Many seasons someone eventually emerges as the bell cow, but not always.

White’s mainly a pass catcher though rsther than a RB?

I typically stay away from any NE RB in fantasy - never know who Bill will hand it off to from one game to the next....
.... and don't think I didn't see you there Cordarrelle Patterson.

This year, both Michel and James White have been putting up numbers in the same game. Michel is the power/speed. James White with tons of receptions out of backfield.

You can be a pass catcher and a RB, believe it or not.

The tone of your post made it sound like the two were mutually exclusive. Figured I'd save your a trip to Google.
... you're welcome, by the way.

White's steady role has been as "the 3rd down back", so, yes, is in to receive more than run. This year he has picked up a chunk of the workload that Dion Lewis had shouldered. Halfway thru 2018 he already has posted a career high in rushing yards.

lol...this is delusional. Gregg Williams isn't going to be the HC of the Browns next year, even if he goes 6-2. That hire would be ridiculed throughout the league.
Williams will be lucky to be on as a DC somewhere next year.

because shite sometimes happen in 8 game stretches and we aren't going to commit to someone who is simply not thought of as a head coach in the nfl right now because of a little hot stetch.
If say....we had a young OC who was well thought of and we promoted him to interim, then sure it would maybe be a test drive. But thats not the case here. Everyone expects that. Hell Williams Im sure knows that. There are 32 nfl teams and not a single one, including us, thinks of Williams as potential HC candidate. Going 6-2 to finish the year isnt going to change that.

If he finishes 6-2 he will be the coach in 2019.. that would be 3 more victories in half a season than Hue did in 2 1/2 seasons...

so? The two arent neccessarily connected in such a linear way wrt decision making though.
Every interim coach isn't interviewing for the job. Dorsey/Haslam very much picked an interim here that they wouldnt have to worry about such a thing.
They are going to pick some new guy. Williams is not coaching to be the browns HC in 2018.

Hell, they'd put his name on the Stadium's Ring of Honor.

LOL, that's like Ghoolie predicting Hue wasn't going to get fired. 2-6, sure he's gone. 6-2 and Williams will be given another year. Maybe even 5-3 will do it.

Corbett, Bitonio, Tretter, Zeitler, Robinson - Put your best five monsters out there on the Oline and play to their strength. Run Chubb. Play action fake. Duke in space.
When will we get a press conference from Coach?
