Bye Bye Mangini

PeytonHillis

I think he knows that he will be fired. If he doesn't get fired then, I don't know what will happen.

WRREBEL

He is probably thinking about what teams need and experienced ball boy

Gips

Dont worry little jake, football teams are always looking for experienced whistle blowing waterboys..

If any team actually hires this halfwit they get what they deserve and i will have a team to laugh at for 2 seasons until he is fired again...

Holmgren looked pissed in the box...Bye bye mangini!

Let the good times roll!

He knows he is going to be fired, so why the hell did we not go for it on 4th and goal? He has nothing to lose, if he wins, he will probably still get fired.

Browns

He was probably thinking if he will ever get a coaching job ever again

WRREBEL

He was probably laughing at the fact that he tricked two franchises in hiring him...

He may also be laughing on how bad he has tricked some of the fans

The only thing that concerns me about a new coach coming in, is the player buying into him. Which is a very tricky thing . I thought Mangini had them, but seems he lost grip. The amount of shifts done during a coaching change is vast - I just hope the transition goes smoothly. However smooth and Browns dont go together in a sentence.

Thats the plus about Holmgren. Not only does he have the credibility, but he has already been here for a year and is familiar with every player on a personal level.

WRREBEL

dude everyone talks about not getting rid of mangini cause there afraid of blowing up the team..

Really 41-9, first off this team will be much different regardless is mangina stayed.. Dline needs an over haul, bye shaun Rodgers, thanks for you 16 tackes this year and 1.5 sacks and 5 improachment penalties. Bye bye Eric Barton, thanks for proving you play as old as you look. Bye Bye Kenyon Coleman. Bye Bye Abe Elam, you arent getting a big payday from us... Goes the same for Roth, unless you want to play for what your worth, hit the road..

Good, then it M-U-S-T be true.

Wouldn't say that means it's true...just that it is a rumor that is out there.

He's pissed about all the empty seats and lost concession revenues in a game with our biggest rival..........yet two more reasons to cut Mangini loose tomorrow.

Grossi just now:

Rebuilding totally might not be what Holmgren has in mind. At least one league source with knowledge of the situation believes the odds are strong that Holmgren will take over the coaching duties himself and install the West Coast offense that he learned under Bill Walsh and used to take Green Bay and Seattle to the Super Bowl.

The source also believes that Holmgren might ask Mangini coordinators Rob Ryan (defense) and Brad Seely (special teams) to stay.

It's possible that Holmgren will delay an announcement on Mangini's successor because he may have to conduct an interview first with a minority candidate to satisfy the NFL's Rooney Rule.

Greg Aiello, NFL spokesman, declined to say whether the rule might be averted in this unique circumstance. After all, the rule would put Holmgren in the position of interviewing a candidate for a job he intends to fill himself. "Let's wait and see what happens. We don't want to get into that type of discussion today," Aiello wrote in an email reply.

If Holmgren still views McCoy as the team's quarterback of the future, it stands to reason that his development will be a major factor in choosing the team's next coach.

I hate the Rooney rule. How would you feel as a black under accomplish coordinator and being brought in for an interview knowing that your only there because of some rule and you are not going to get the job.
