Stefanski Introductory Press Conference
-
It was the normal, neither good nor bad. Haslam’s presser is what shook me. The fact he owns a billion dollar business baffles me. He seems like a dumb version of Jerry Jones and that is saying something

The part where he mentioned "how fun of a process it was during this hire" made me literally shake my head. He's a fucktard.
I also enjoyed DePodesta's "well THIS time we conducted a thorough head coach search". What a sniveling little rat fuck. When he finally gets shitcanned, I'll drive his dork ass to the airport myself, then shove a Bill James encyclopedia up his ass.

BTW, for your further entertainment... Like in the Wizard of Oz here's the "man behind the curtain"..

I love how when he was pressed about how things are different this time around, he said, "I don't want to talk about the other two hires." He basically was saying, "that moron refused to listen to what I had to say and this is why we are here now."

I completely disagree. He is basically saying, "you guys want to make fun of my way of doing things but you keep going against my suggestions and are failing miserably! Maybe if you listened, we wouldn't be in this position." I think if you had no idea where his background comes from, I don't think there would be this much back lash. Depo doesn't do anything that every major company in america does...it utilizes tools to maximize performance. That's all he is trying to say that his "analytics" is doing.
-
Did he mention how excited he is at the prospect of getting paid for five year's worth of work, but only having to work 2 years?
That kind of thing goes without saying... I know... it was only two years of free money in my case, but I took it... and retired.
Don't you feel better knowing there's no Friday "Analytics" meeting?

So, you are the Freddie of the Browns Board?

He lost a lot of weight.
You ain’t lying.... I heard he is on that Rob Lowe Atkins thing

I am sure that the real Paul DePodesta was not the roly poly character that was portrayed in the movies. In fact, correct me if I am wrong....they didn't even use his real name in the film, although they used the real name of just about everyone else.
-
He can talk the talk but can he walk the walk......

Unlike you, I don't think he overused the cliches.

Ya, they called the guy in the movie Pete or something. I don’t think Paul wanted anything to do with the movie.

Stefanski made a statement on Tuesday, displaying intelligence, humility, confidence and a seeming willingness to put winning and working ahead of all.
The stage was not too big for him. He looks and sounds like a guy that you'd like as a face of your team. - I hope he's a good coach. We don't want any more 18 penalty games.

After listening to Kevin- it's sort of obvious why Freddie failed. He was playing checkers while the opposing coordinators were playing three dimensional chess. He got 1\2 a season out of Baker- and then the rest of the league caught up with him-fast.
He's a likable guy, but this time, he has to prove it to me first.......... Sorry Kevin, it's not you, it's me.
You speak for many of us. Browns fans are suffering from a malady called firing fatigue..... We're all in the results business now. Winning a press conference doesn't count.

With 20\20 hindsight I'm sort of surprised DePodesta didn't flat out quit. Paul had data (according to him) on 50 potential head coach candidates. They narrowed it down, and Dorsey got his way with Freddie. One of the main reasons Dorse isn't around anymore. But there's others. Looks like he wasn't willing to be just one voice in the room when it came to the draft.
Speaking of- the scouting staff is still intact, and Wolf is busy researching potential picks come April.

-“multiple” on offense. I like it. “Dynamic in the run game”. Yes!!! He has some tools to work with here
-also hinted at using the playmakers we have which something Kitchens failed at.
-his system and systems he’s been working under are very QB friendly. Great! Putting Baker in shotgun and making him a playmaker - not his game at the professional level. Baker had some of his best games last season throwing 30 passes all game.
-my original criticism just one franchise one perspective for 14 years. I’ve changed my mind I think it’s impressive that he’s held on and been with the same franchise through multiple regime changes. He’s left a good enough impression to be a holdover
good start...now show us all the Browns finally got this right

Freddie did say before the season and week after week during the season about using playmakers more getting them involved more. Its very common that a coach says he's going to get the ball into his playmakers hands. Every coach will say it not every coach succeeds at it. I don't put a ton of stock in what these guys say in press conferences. They are coached up on what to expect and say. Outside of troll questions from grossi and mkc they get tossed meatballs.
Also Freddie hung on at one organization (cardinals) for 12 years under multiple regimes. So Freddie in turn left a good enough impression to be a holdover.
-
Both impressive pressers.
I think Stefanski is going to be just what the Dr. ordered. I am also glad it appears most are starting to see the light on DePo and that he isn't a sinister figure sitting deep in the bowels of headquarters, pulling the strings.
If everybody had like minds, we would never learn. -
And that's how you command a presser...
Impressive.
Actually his answer to the first question concerning being a candidate last year and following a HC who lasted one year. "That's a great word undeterred. And I am undaunted...." There is an excellent Stephen Ambrose biography out there about Meriwether Lewis of the Lewis & Clark expedition entitled "Undaunted Courage". I think we got ourselves one of those.
Anyway Rene was impressed I bet....................."You had me at hello"?

This literally happens every. single. time. the Browns hire a head coach, or make a first round pick.
There's a moment where people think for themselves, but the sheep herd mentality is strong, and virtually everyone falls into line with the "Sunshine and Rainbows" mentality.
Until the games start.

Sunshine seeps in when the OL takes a new form. When I see Baker with more time to actually have progressions, then I will be on the Rainbow train totally. In the meantime I think we have a coach already groomed for the HC position. It was a shame for Freddie that Dorsey didn't understand the need for that. He skipped a step with Freddie. Too bad because I think Freddie is a good man.

Maybe so. Something else happens every time..some stomp,whine and moan when the team doesn't do things the way that person wanted.

I enjoyed Stefanski's comments about all the personalities..He said, "I don't mind personalities. Because I respect guys that work. Personalities are great. Your production is required." He just put everyone on blast and especially Baker. Basically, "Baker, I expect you to work your ass off." Let's see/hope he is able to follow through with it.
IMOP, even though OBJ and Landry are big personalities, I think they have proven they definitely put in the work. Now that we now about their injuries, it makes a lot more sense as to why they weren't practicing as much.

Or guarded optimism.
i ain’t saying yea or nay until the DC is hired. I’m ready to walk out if Wilks comes back. Okay maybe not but I will say I told you so every freakiNg by Sunday

Yet, Meriwether Lewis committed suicide. And Rene killed a guy in Chicago, and got fat in Bridget Jones' Diary. (along with having a bad English accent).
Not sure I dig you comparisons.

It is: Sunshine, Lollipops, Rainbows and Everything". Don't forget the lollipops.
