Bye Bye Mangini

Formerly Stone said:
This is the most likely of all scenarios for a number of reasons.1. Holmgren has said he would not rule out coaching again.
2. It fits Lerner's financial commitment as opposed to hiring....and paying.....a head coach.
3. It fit's for now because a big name coach wouldn't come to Cleveland until the Browns demonstrate that they can turn the organization around. If Holmgren can turn it around this sets the stage for a big name coach to come in after 4-5 years of steady improvement.
It all makes too much sense!
It makes all to much sense to pay 3 head coaches next year? I think that is one of the reasons why we keep Mangini.

Look at it from a business stand point. They have to pay Mangini regardless......but!........if they don't believe that Mangini is the coach of the future they have to get rid of him and start the rebuilding process with the pieces of the puzzle they believe to be the future.I see your point, but think that we would still be jumping the gun with this decision. I think that Holmgren realizes that he could have done any better with this group of players.

If Holmgren coaches anywhere, it will be here, and there is a very small chance that will happen. I would make sense for him to do so from money stand point because if we fire Mangini then we still have to pay him next year along with whatever coach we hire, but if Holmgren takes over as coach he is already getting paid so we will only be paying what we are paying this year.
Other than that I look for Holmgren to do one of two things.
1: He talks to Mangini and says that they are going to retain him for one more season, but that the team will be running a WCO. Over the course of the offseason Holmgren will talk to Mangini and coach him in the area of WCO to get him more used to it and the WCO Coordinator that is brought in will have all control of the offensive plays. (I believe that this works out because Mangini really doesn't know shit about offense anyway, but does good with defense and as being an actual head coach which involves motivation, inspiration, ect)
2: Mangini gets fired and we see a WCO head coach come in.

<<<< Mangini had the courage to take apart a Browns team that was diseased in 2009 -- and it nearly cost him his job. One year later, there is no question the squad has begun to reflect his philosophy of "team first." The lack of wins are an issue -- and there must be results next season, if there is one, but the Browns are not a smoke-and-mirrors team. They are beginning to resemble, in the early stages, an organization built to last. >>>>
I agree, "it's time for this team to stop the cycle of tearing down -- only to half-rebuild and then do it all over again" and getting rid of Mangini would be the wrong move.

I agree.

One never knows how a contract is worded, but I would be shocked if Holmgren has a out clause to go coach another team.

That will make him 10-10 since going 1-11 during last season. Sorry, thats improvement. Just a thought.
Oh, and I like the people complaining about how he spoke to about his kid in an interview. Saying he is rich, "im sure he can take his xbox and 60" TV with him wherever they go.....NONE of those saying that would know how to explain to your family and children how idiotic and hateful some Cleveland fans are. 6 year old kid has friends, there is family in Cleveland, the wife probably has a life already started (2 freakin years already and a woman doesnt have friends yet?) Family stability is part of living a good life too, hell, families have been split for much less. The dude is possibly (probably) looking at another move. "BUT HE IS RICH" SO WHAT? MONEY DOESNT BUY HAPPINESS, FAMILY AND FRIENDS DO! I dont care how much any of you make, you are facing a pink slip and a probable move in order to continue to support your family and future, ALL of you would be flippin stressed and pissed off!
The dude improved this team and had it going in the right direction, but because he was black listed from day one, NONE of you have been fair to this guy, he was marked as a failure from day one and had NO CHANCE in that city.

Keep dreaming! The guy can't coach worth a crap! He's hopefully gone after today!!

3 1/2 quarters left... if our oline shows up we will be ok...
And the Dline, Dbacks, Lbackers, QB, receivers, RB's, Kickers, Coaches ect. if they all show up we may only lose by 4 td's.

I love the guys on here who assume they can get off their couch, put down the Busch Light, and walk onto that field and do a better job. Face it most of you don't even know what your talking about when it comes to coaches, all you look at is the record and a 5-11 last year where we beat bottom dwellers (except for the Steelers) and 5-11 this year with the toughest schedule and great wins against two of some of the NFL elite and only losing games by a 1.6 point average is a huge improvement. But I digress. I'll refer to your drunken lazy boy sunday coach hiring advise.
