The Browns GM/Coach Search - from a Patsfan's perspective
-
which resulted in an 8-8 season under his management. (Yes, believe it or not Patriots fans are actually quite knowledgable about the goings on of a division rival)
You lost me, and blew your note above as soon as you stated the record. If you know what you rivals are doing, how do you not know they were 9-7, not 8-8

Without Dick Jauron literally turning a win into a loss, Mangini's 8-8. Not that I'm expecting any Browns fans to follow the Jets or any AFC East team quite that closely.

He was right and you were wrong. They were 9-7. Dick Jauron didn't cough up the football, nor did he call the play - a galactically stupid play call.
Let me tell you something about the Browns fans on this board. We follow everybody, so while you were treated with some disdain when you first arrived, perhaps you can set that aside for awhile and not take it so personally.

Apparently he is a good interviewee.
Lerner is enamored with him. Enthralled with him. Whatever.

2004 with Crennel as DC, patriots defense was #2 by points and #9 by yards.
2005 with Mangini as DC, they dropped to 17th and 26th.
2006 without Mangini they are 2nd and 6th
Jets defense was ranked 7th and 12th in 04-05 under Herm Edwards, then 20th, 18th and 16th with Mangini.
I just don't see that he's ever really accomplished anything.

Those are some damning statistics, thanks for doing the legwork.
I'd say it isn't that he's never really accomplished anything. It's much much worse than that. But I think you meant to undersell the fact...
Hopefully it's his supposed rapport with players that we'd hire him for. Not his defensive creativity/playcalling.

You really think I don't know exactly what their record was? :rofl:
Had the Bills not given that game away with a bonehead playcall the Patriots are in the playoffs right now.
I don't care who Jauron or anyone else blames for it. You sure can't give any credit to Mangini's "genius" for the Bills giving that game away - for all intents and purposes he's an 8-8 coach.

Oh okay genius. I guess losing to Mangini's Jets had nothing to do with you guys missing the playoffs. Or taking a giant shit against the Steelers had zero to do with you missing the playoffs.
After Pittsburgh handed you your ass, you beat SEA (by only 3), OAK, ARI and BUF. I am not impressed.
Save your Bostonian whining for another board, we're all stocked up here.

Jauron did call the play and said he did after the game

I followed you. That was my point on Mangini. He has experience at HC and isn't coming from college.One thing for sure, no college coaches. They don't work.
Especially Paul Brown he was a failure coming from college and Jimmy Johnson and Barry Switzer and Don Coryell and Tom Coughlin and Sid Gillman and Jim Lee Howell and Hank Stram......to name a few busts who came from college

Let's see Rich, 90% of your list include guys from 20 years ago. This ain't the same NFL it was 20 years ago.
So let me be more specific, it doesn't work today in the NFL.

But what was their record? I didn't realize the NFL took away wins for another teams bad coaching.
So I guess you didn't see Favre go through his last 4 games with 2 TDs and 8 INTs.....

What Jauron said was βClearly the responsibility for the last call, the play-action pass, that was mineβ. That's not sayign he called the play, only that he is responsible for it, like any good HC should say.

FAIL.
No he didn't call the play, and he never said he called the play. He is a HC, and they're responsible for the team and how it plays. Did you expect him to throw his QB and OC under a bus?
Here is a newsflash: Head coaches in the NFL hire OC's to call the plays and put the package together.
Head coaches take the fall or reap the rewards.
