    And now the Giants have Judge.

    Talk about an outside-the-box darkhorse... first I heard his name was the announcement that he'd been hired.

    Special teams coach helped the Pats WR this year.  Potential Miss State HC candidate.

    yeah it was left field.
     

    Another rumor is Garrett as the OC

    Wow Giants fan base has to be slightly upset 

  • @runyon27 said:

    I think all the teams except us have a HC now. Panthers went with Ruhle and the Giants just hired some Pats assistant coach. So lets get this buttoned up...

    Why hurry now?

    I don't think we lost "our guy" to anybody else and we are the last job out there. Seems like taking our time would be prudent.

    Finish the opening round... hold a couple callback interviews... deliberate... hire... move on to the GM role.

    Yep.  The more jobs That fly off the shelf the more leverage we hold.

    Except getting  quality  coordinators and assistants. The other guys will  waste  no time rounding out  their staffs. We still  have Wilks and  Monken in the building,  but will  the new HC want to  keep  them? 

  • McDaniels is what Haslam has wanted for a long time.  The dismissal of Dorsey was a large red flag for us and a roadblock for him.

    McD is a control freak.   So this won't end well...

    If he's smart...he'll send them packing.

    Just don't bring back Ray Horton.

    Agree, Josh is another one of those coaches that think he's a GM too.

    McDaniels, Meyer, or Garrett. All extremely experienced in their own unique ways. 
    This is quite the year to find a HC.

    I’ll pass on Stefanski after that Todd Haley style reverse pass to halt the momentum on a playoff drive yesterday against the Saints. Vikings were driving. 1st and 10=loss of 5 yards. Drive killer.

    Was that a Todd Haley style play.....or a Freddie Kitchens style of play. 

    @the-gipper said:

    Both. They both called those types of plays. Trying to impose their will as a trickster play-caller, instead of letting players like Baker, Chubb and Landry do their thing.

    You don’t think Josh is already talking to people?

    part of his HC pitch will likely include some of his key hires he plans on making.

    Which would still be an improvement.  We had way too many key plays where we have all these horses and we are targeting Harris or Hilliard. 

  • Once again, not saying I'm on the McDaniels train, but why does everyone just assume he wants to be the GM as well? He tried that in Denver and it ended horribly but he was also, I believe, the youngest head coach in the league by many years. It's been over 10 years since he was the head coach of Denver. He's only 43 years old. I think and would certainly hope that he has learned from his mistakes in Denver and now knows how to fix them. I think this is why it is so important to get a GM that aligns with his values on players are and why the Browns are hiring this person second. McDaniels can't shoulder all the responsibility. Plus, he's been through a few other organizations at this point and has a better understanding of the league. I would rather hire McDaniels of now then the McDaniels of 10 years ago.

    The Browns now have their pick between Stefanski and McDaniels. It will be fascinating to see what happens. I don't have much of an opinion because who the hell knows now a days. Also, for what it is worth, DePodesta's contract runs out at the end of the week.

    LOL, and Belichick isn't?  Josh  has had 10 years to learn from the master. That said,  I'm  well aware  that in general the Bill  coaching  tree has produced rotten  fruit.

    BB is as detail oriented as you'll ever find.  But there is a difference with how he has a vision for his team vs being an ego-centric, micromanaging, overbearing douche bag.

    Agree....in fact, I don't think we lost any of several people who could be "our guy":   Not McD, Stefanski, Bienemy, Saleh.   Rhule nor the Judge were even on the Browns radar, I do not believe.

    Well....he has worked with BB all this time....and I suspect that he saw how that worked.   BB being the boss.  If Josh is chosen, he may be able to select his  GM/DPP......Caserio.   It can and has worked....going back even a generation along the coaching tree to Parcells. You know, the whole "buying some of the groceries" thing.

    Vrabel and O'Brien still in the playoffs......those pieces of fruit seem pretty ripe to me.

    That would be on Kitchens relying on “plays, not players” and we had 4 capable skill players. Landry, OBJ, Hunt, Chubb.
    You’re bringing up a different issue.

    I personally can’t stand any type of offensive trick play that has the potential to derail a drive and force a punt. Hue/Haley ran those plays, and so did Kitchens(ex. Kareem Hunt HB toss pass on 3rd and short) 

  • The thing my mind keeps going back to is the footage of Bill and Tom sitting in Bill's office going over game film of their upcoming opponents Defense. I must have seen it at least three times last week.

    In it Tom was pointing out... "if that CB does that, then we can..." Bill asking, "Do you mean...?" Tom: "Yes." Bill: "Oh... I see... that's good."

    Apparently this was a weekly ritual lasting an hour or so... and McDaniels was nowhere in the room.

    I'm not on board with a McDaniels hire, he just ain't our guy.
