    We could do a lot worse with a retread like McCarthy. 🙂

    Yeah that huge SuperBowl ring on his finger is far inferior to a guy who went from RB Coach to OC to HC in under a year, for sure. How many Super Bowls has Freddie been to, again?

    The Packers seemed to disagree with you, just saying 

  • well here is the thing about CC's comments(and Im no Cowherd fan)- we did hire a guy who other teams werent going to be hiring as HC.  Guy was an unknown rb coach a few months ago.  He may have been able to parlay a 7 game or whatever nice stretch into an OC position, but a lot of people are going to view this as a reach....may work out and may not, but we certainly didn't get the prettiest belle at the ball or anything close....

    If you think this is the same old Browns in any form or fashion you’ve not been paying attention for awhile.

    A lot of people thought Mayfield wasn’t th prettiest pick at 1 and Chubb wasn’t the best back on the board. I’m cool with how that turned out. I’m also pretty happy with the offense I watched under Freddie. They couldn’t make him OC without risking losing him next year. I’m happy with the move. I do hope they get a DC with prior HC experience and no ego to mentor him further.

    How could someone not like the guy? We are going to pour the points on teams next year

  • Read today that it was Dorsey who first brought Kitchens in as RB coach not Haley and that Williams didn’t have a say in Kitchens becoming OC, Dorsey made that call and promotion. 

    Makes you wonder just how long Dorsey has had Freddie in mind for a significant long term role here

  • God bless Freddie!

    I'll support him.  Until such time that he demonstrates that he shouldn't be HC.  

    As jcam222 said, How can you not like this guy?  Good luck Freddie!!

    BEING A BROWNS FAN IS A TEST TO SEE HOW MUCH YOU CAN TAKE

  • Freddie is the right resume and FIT. He has the complete respect of the locker room and that is everything.

    Thank you GW for being a badass coach for us!

    I did enjoy it but numbers can tell the narrative we want them to tell.  My nervousness rests in the limited sample size and how Freddie will handle the adversity.  He’s only been an offensive coordinator for s blip and never been the head honcho.  I will say that Dorsey has done a lot to earn some trust so I am not saying this is a bad hire, I’m just not loving it on paper

    Great F’n news guys. Nothing but great news since this Dorsey guy has been here

    Regarding the Browns "losing franchise" mentality Cow-pie:  You obviously aren't old enough to  remember the 60s wear the paper bag Saints. Didn't have a winning record for their first 20 years. They sucked as bad as the Browns have of late.  Or how about those Tampa Bay Yuckaneers?  Three winning seasons out of their first 20. Steelers blew dead worms before 1972. Then all of them went on to win Super Bowls. Teams don't stay down forever, and they don't stay on top forever either. 

    Keep on a flamin'. McCarthy is such a hot candidate, he's still looking for work.  😁

    Im all too aware of the attention Ive paid.  Im of the mind if it aint broke dont fix it.  Gw got alot out of the boys in orange in the short time here was in charge...he deserved a chance.

  • I was shocked he got the job. I thought for sure McCarthy would get the job. I wonder if it was Dorsey or Haslem who forced HC candidates to commit to Kitchens as OC. Sounds like a Haslem thing.

  • It's funny to think back to when Hue got canned, and what we were all speculating who would get hired, who would be the main candidates. 

    Ends up being a guy who before Hue and Haley were fired most of us couldn't have picked out of a police line-up. 

    Kitchens wouldn't admit it publicly, but he has to be secretly shocked at how his career has turned in the last few months.

    Other way around.. Wolf and Dorsey already knew all they needed to know about McCarthy from their Green Bay Days.  They weren't all that interested...   Apparently no other teams are\were either...  McCarthy has been passed over at least six times already, and apparently the only teams left minus a head coach, the Dolphins and Bengals aren't interviewing him.   

    EDIT:  & now McCarthy is out out of the mix totally. Will go the Mike Pettine route, and take at least 2019 off.  He won't need Food Stamps....
