Williams but I'm in the camp of new coaching staff next year
Why on the earth would you change something that is working so well? I am finally getting used to the feeling of winning on more Sundays than we lose. Williams and Kitchens took a floundering team and made us damn, make that DAMN good. It would be literally insane to change that.
The team knows the D and O for god sake lets not do another install

I’m not sure I agree with the damn good part. We’ve beaten one team with a winning record and that was in October. Last year everyone wanted Williams fired for playing Peppers 30 yards off the line and now he’s the savior. The Bengal team that was beaten today was missing their starting QB, both WRs, both TEs, WIL LB and DB. KC, Texans and Pittsburgh best is easily. I think a good offensive mind will understand what Baker can and can’t do and a good defensive mind will understand our concepts.

Keep Williams as HC
Keep Kitchens as OC
FIRE ANUS

Isn't that a condition you get from eating too much roughage and hot sauce?

I think it's up to Williams and his attitude in an interview.
Maybe he doesn't want the HC job. If he really does, and they don't offer it, he walks away.

Pretty much.
He's either getting the head coach job or he's gone. There's no way they could keep him around, because that would make for an awkward locker room dynamic.

Agree. Weird thing is he might actually not care about the prestige/money involved in being a HC.
Maybe he'd stay and make a modest pay raise as DC if offered it

I can't see a situation where Dorsey doesn't give Williams the job but he's kept as DC.
Wouldn't be really fair to the new head coach to have the guy (Williams) some of the players in the locker room wished was given the HC job still in the room.

That makes sense. So let's hope he just leaves things where they are. Keep in mind that all the head coach candidates are doing something other than working as head coaches for a reason.

Don’t forget a large part of that reason is simply lack of job openings. The only concern with leaving it how it is today is potential to lose Kitchens if someone offers him the HC gig.

This is a really interesting article. Obviously there is some conjecture placed into it, but it makes a lot of really good points. I'm not totally sold on the fact that Dorsey had no input on Williams becoming the interim HC. That seems like a stretch to say that DePodesta has THAT much influence over coaching personnel. I for one believe, if such was the case, Dorsey would have stepped down. He's a control freak, which is what got him in trouble in KC. I think in the end it comes down to Greg Williams. How long does he plan on coaching? Is he willing to mentor Kitchens as the future HC of this team? if so, does that put the browns in a position similar to what happened to Tampa and Lovie Smith & Dirk Koeter? All valid reasons for potentially bringing in some young gun such as Lincoln Riley. If that happens, how much of the staff does he keep and if Williams is on the staff, how much chaos does that bring? My only hope is that Jimmer has very little input.

That could happen no matter what we do. Probably Williams as well with his experience and current success.

Yep, I was alluding to the fact it might be impossible to keep them both. They might both have HC opportunities

Could be. I'd be surprised if somebody was bold enough to pick up Freddy after a half a season as OC but stranger things have happened. I wouldn't think coach Williams would be happy with a demotion. So give William the head coaching job and promote Freddy to assistant head coach in charge of the offense.

Lets thank williams for a job well done even if we lose sunday and go with a new HC. We have an incredibly attractive opening and we can leverage that. Bounty hunter, while a nice story(especially if he gets to 8-7-1) is not where we need to go with the opening we have. As for OC and DC, a lot of it depends on the new HC. Obviously it needs to be someone the HC wants and works well with.

For me, I think McCarthy is the most qualified. Whoever Dorsey selects will be fine by me. I'm not jumping on the GW and Kitchens are the saviors. Good teams made them both look clueless. Against sub .500 teams they look like world beaters. Beat the hell out of Baltimore on Sunday and I could buy in.

Speaking of buy in, the players have and that’s damn important. I stand by the fact these guys have made an amazing turn around and there is not need to start over yet again with a new playbook

Regardless of the raisins score, we have witnessed the greatest turnaround in Cleveland Browns history. Told to take charge, school the QB and win games, Greg Williams has done much more than most of us could have wildly imagined. How do you break that up? I mean really. Ariens? Ready to collapse. We got a good thing going here. And after learning much more about Williams ....keep him and the staff minus special teams coaching. They can do better there.
The leagues Black Monday should sound like this in Cleveland
Cha-Ching!!

Watch the full Cincy game and try to tell Dorsey to break this up with new coaching. Just can't happen.

If Williams is to become HC do you promote a DC from within or go get one ?

Keep what you have. The kid is doing a fine job as DC. Haven’t you heard? Blake Williams is running the D with input from pop
