I can totally see Chip Kelly in Tennessee, or possibly with the Colts. That's if he wants to be in the pros at all. I can't imagine the cash that a college program will scrape together to get their hands on Kelly. I bet the Miami Hurricanes are furious they didn't wait until the end of the year. I doubt they could get the money for Kelly, but that's what they need.

I don't want Ken Whisenhunt.

Combined with Farmer they would complete the wrecking of the Browns for years to come.

Ditto

My guess is Haslam hires a GM first and keeps Pettine until that happens. But if Pettine does get fired how about getting rid of that 3-4 defense that O'Neil doesn't know how to run and go back to basics.

This was the most non competitive Browns team I ever saw in all my years going back to the 60s.

Those chickens in the "Can chickens draft better than the Browns" test are looking pretty good right now.

Mike Polk has good sense of humor when it comes to the browns.

No, I don't think McDaniels hates Cleveland.....he was born a mile up the road from where I sit in NEOhio. And he grew up in Canton.

What Josh may not like is the dysfunction of the Cleveland Browns organization....which has nothing to do with the city or the area.

But what Josh probably most likes is the following: being the protoge of Bill Belichick....and being the successor HC of the NEP's to BB when he retires, which will likely be in the not too distant future. When Brady goes, BB goes IMO. He does not want his reputation tarnished so he will pack it in and give McD. his shot there.

And you know what BB will do when he packs it in: go on TV as an analyst! Yes....Mumbles will take his place on the couch with the other retired coaches doing analysis.

Everyone says that the Mumbling Bill thing is just an act. That he can be as intellectual as anyone about football as long as he is not being asked about his own team or his own motivations.

I mean....he won't get away with: "What did you think of the moves by coach X there Bill"...."bluhm blehm....ah...us...he just did what he thought was best at the time".. No. He will have to give real answers.....which he probably can do.

GM Scott Piolli can fix our roster. But he may have connections to Josh McDaniels as HC. McDaniels hates a blue collar Cleveland so continue to hold Brady's panties you puss
