    The above says it Steve. If said journeyman sucks- Pettine may have bought himself a ticket out of town.

    and holmgren was the messiah.

    won't let any of you off the hook for that one.

    I don't know anybody who didn't think Mike Holmgren was a hell of a hire. Who the fuck knew?

    Just one of many big time front office mess ups. It started with Carmen Policy, and went downhill from there. Phil Savage seems to have found his niche as an announcer for Alabama games. I think Butch Davis is currently running the Kurig machine for Tampa Bay's front office.

    Oh well. Shit happens the fans will bitch like little girls if you don't hire legitimate football people and then again when you do.

  • Speaking of "legitimate" football people...

    Joe Banner was on NFL Insiders again yesterday. Setting aside this odd, snarling smile he's developed he had a couple Browns-related comments...

    Said our D was going to confuse a lot of QBs as it sends blitzers from any look at any time.

    Said Wheezy has a great arm, but when you get to the level of experience he's at now and mentally he is no further along than he is, then you have to begin to question...

  • It's the right decision. Don't tell your team to play so hard, so tough, and then

    tell them "gee, you just lost your job because the other guy..."

    nah. If/when Johnny takes over as the starter - it's because he gets the understanding

    of the offense and defenses... like McCown, and EARNS the starter position.

    The "other guy" was drafted in the first round and should be playing Now! McCown knew his role when he signed. Riding the bench another year puts the Browns back another year. They still won't know who their quarterback is going into 2016. McCown is the backup and can't stay healthy. So if we start losing with McCown Pettine's on the hot seat. As he should be.

    Pettine lets Johnny play and his job is secure.

  • Well...

    Stephen A Smith just questioned our starting McCown, so I know I feel even better about the decision.

    And, yes... Welcome, SteakAndEggs... I used to eat in your Kitchen...

    Not even a couple Johnny packages- can't shatter McCwown's fragile ego. He put the ball on the ground too- bench him immediately.
