	Your choices:
</p>

<p>
	Paul DePodesta and Sashi Brown, the analytics/legal minds behind the current rebuilding process, including trades, draft picks, and business arrangements for the Cleveland Browns professional football organization.
</p>

<p>
	Bill Cowher, former NFL player and coach familiar with the AFC north who helped revive a rival of the Browns from a slump of mediocrity and inconsistency to playing in divisional titles and Superbowls.
</p>



<p>
	[Note: There is no rumor or speculation that Mr. Cowher would consider leaving his current position as an on-air analyst for CBS Sports or that the Browns have attempted to contact him, this is just poll of forum opinion toward a hypothetical situation]

	There was a 30 on 30 about the USFL recently, it was really good. The director of the episode actually got to interview Cheeto McLittlehands, and when pressed about his role in causing the USFL's demise he immediately ended the interview and walked out.

<p>
	Not as absurd an idea as it may seem. Disney could have his imagineers create an audioanimatronic version of Johnny Manziel, except make the legs 5” longer, leave the faulty parts of the brain out, and make the mouth inoperable. The real Manziel could get a licensing fee, which would earn him enough money to stay in Vegas in perpetuity. Everyone wins.

<p>
	Sure, but if someone does want Manning for front office, why not Cowher? Not to say Bill should be running things, but I don't see any better argument for Manning. It's kind of *shrug* when people start tossing out names like that.
</p>

<p>
	In any event, currently Sashi leads Cowher 52%/48% with 25 voting.

<p>
	During his run as Head Coach, Cowher won a power struggle with whoever the GM was, and gained power over the roster of the team. The Steelers then had two seasons under .500 and Cowher nearly got canned. The proper delegation of power within the Steelers organization was reinstated, and they've been a playoff contender every season since, winning two Super Bowls, going to a third.
