That's what you got out of that? I saw one losing season, than marked improvement and consistent winning at both stops.

The guy was a key figure in two different successful franchises this decade ... and people are bitching?

Seriously, who did you want to be Shurmur's offensive coordinator?

Zombo

i see a bunch of stats where childress was along for the ride in seemingly a similar role he should have here. lets not assume though that shurmur is andy reid, or even darrel bevell.

Haha. Thank you for the humor. I'm just glad we never had to deal with him in Cleveland!

Gee, I was thinking that's how Manning's going to look the first time someone gives him a good blindside hit. 😁

I'd prefer Sean Payton but he might not be real interested in the job

He's like a curse or something. Can't believe he can still get hired in the NFL with that track record...

Zombo

Well from the looks of it, we should be making the playoffs in about 6 seasons. Oh boy...

I think the only reason Childress ran on 1st and second down would be because they have fucking Adrian Peterson. If we had AP.. I would be pissed if we didn't run on 1st and 2nd down. Actually, if my mind serves me right, they were pretty much a pass first in his last two years as head coach when Brett was at the helm. And Brett's "unclutchness" was probably a good reason they didn't make it to the super bowl. I think he'll be just fine.

Yea "straight to the shitter" is losing in a Super Bowl and championship games? Classic Zombo. I'll fucking take this over 4-12, 3-13, and so on. You're a dolt as usual.

sorry

As others have said, that sounds just like the offense we have had here...except that the Browns actually had some of their best production in the two minute offense.

Or,perhaps it is "the system" that these guys are running. The WCO does use a lot of short passes and has a lot of reliance on YAC, even in 3rd down situations.

I guess that may be all fine, well, and good when you have Jerry Rice catching, but it may not work with lesser lights.

How about a Browns fan who lives in Minnesota who got to watch all my friends hate Chilly?

Can I bitch about Chilly?
