New Coach Rumor!

Guys like this are what we need to be considering...- Gregg Williams, defensive coordinator of the Jags
- Steve Spagnuolo, defensive coordinator Giants
- Ron Rivera, defensive coordinator Chargers
- Mike Trgovac, defensive coordinator Panthers
A sharp, young motivator.
There will probably be someone who pops up whom none of us are thinking about. What the hell, lets just grab Bob Stoops.
The ONLY one out of this group I would consider is Steve Spagnuolo... Gregg Williams was a HUGE bust in buffalo.. I would rather have an offensive minded coach anyways...
Bill Belichick was also a bust his first go round in Cleveland. Screw an offensive minded coach. Give me a god damn defense to be proud of.

What are the chances of fans be happy with an experienced head coach? If there names aren't Cower or Marty, who else should the browns look at that's been successful in the pros?I cannot imagine why any Browns fan would want Schottenheimer back. This is completely baffling to me.
Let me take a crack at this, Kathy. I think at this point most of us know a change to be made with RAC 'n ROLLS. Whether this is all on him is rather a moot point, because in this league the coach is the first fall guy in the domino effect scheme of things. To be sure he has had some issues here that are inexcusable, but I don't think he has been the only problem. Right now, his hands on approach and players coach rep is not looking good. I personally think it has more to do with the coordinators than him, but it's ultimately his job to get it done. Usually a team will go to a taskmaster after the failure of a player's coach.
All that being said, then it's time to think of the available coaches that can co-exist with Savage. People look at Marty as being a guy who can make this team consistent and get control of guys like Edwards. They know his organizational skills are top notch and with the talent on this team can bring a fresh outlook and turn things around.
Myself, I wasn't a Marty fan back in the day when he finally got fired. I wanted the guy gone, plain and simple. He had lost it offensively and refused to hire an o coordinator. His offense was stagnant and he was stubborn, so that along with his penchant for choking in the big game forced Modell to get rid of him. Then Bud Carson took an ancient team right back to the AFC Championship game. I'm not a big Marty guy at all, but the fetish some have for him to come back here is more out of fear than anything else. They see a guy we know what to expect from that will have us back in the playoffs and organized. They see going after a college coach like Frerentz a scary prop along with a retread coordinator like RAC 'n ROLLS being the flavor of the month as risky.
That's my take on it. I probably wouldn't have a big problem bringing him back here, but I would much rather like some young blood like Tomlin instead.

Therefore, the GOOD news is Ferentz already has PRO football experience and it was right here in Cleveland. It's where he made a HOT name for himself. I LIKED him and didn't his team just beat the #2 team in the country?- Tom F.Here is the bad news: The guy I sit right next to at work played on the same UCONN team as Ferentz and he said he is far from being the brightest bulb in the circuit.
More bad news: IMHO, he is the most overrated coach in college football.
It will be more and more and more of the same if Ferentz is hired (and Savage isn't fired).
I'll take Crennel any day over Ferentz.

Well, now that he wouldn't have to worry about DA giving him another coronary, perhaps we could lure in Ditka?In short NO THANKS. Some guys are bitching that Savage can't draft and you want the guy who traded his whole draft for Rickey Williams?
How stupid would it have been for any team to pass up that deal, Larry?
Probably a team destined for 15+ years of mediocrity.

What still shocks me is how godawful bad Dwight Clark was at drafting. There's guys on this board who have their shit together more than that guy, and everything pointed to him being a young and up and coming executive and talent guy. Apparently, Carmen really had no idea about anything, he was just a front man.
Seriously, you could take a blind man and have him point to picks on a board out of nowhere that would have stuck more than the picks Clark had.

the coach I would love to have is mike singeltary. Quitters woulnd't play for him. I think he will be a good HC coach someday.We'll see. I am not sold he'll be able to scale back that old school stuff, like say a Coughlin did. That hard ass stuff will wear thin if it is the norm.
-
You heard it here first Next coach of the Cleveland Browns Charlie Weiss !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Big Steve
Terre Haute

Thats what this team needs. Someone not afraid to get in there face and get on them when they need it. This team lacks discipline and thats what they need. Hey coughlin worked out fine he has a super bowl.

Hey coughlin worked out fine he has a super bowl.Oh I agree CLE needs it. My concern with Singletary is he will always go the old school way and never soften up at times when he needs to. Which will cost him to lose his players/team. Coughlin learned to do that and scales things back as far as the hard ass routine, whicn is why he has success.

I like Marty. He is old school which I think is what the Browns need. That said, going back to the future is not what the Browns need now. The team needs a coach that can embody the old ways yet appeal to a new breed of NFL players.

I agree with coughlin he has eased up a bit. I know everybody wants cowher, I just think he won't come. So that's why I say singletary. He will be better than tomlin I think.

Over the last few years, the Browns have reached out to Bob Stoops at Oklahoma. Stoops is a Younsgtown native so that may be enticing to return home. Not sure how the Sooners are doing this year. The only thing lacking is his NFL experience. Just a thought.
-
Actually romeo crennel has the same Agent as kirk Ferentz.heard that on STO last night.also heard the rumor about Ferentz being the coach.
-
Hell might as well hire John Cooper if you like Ferentz.
-
I would look at 3 people.
Cowher
Nolan
Marriucchi(sp)

Oh, I forgot...we would also need to bring in Art Shell or Mo Carthon just to get that out of the way.
