    And what young and up can coming candidate are you going to hire in the middle of the season??

    Zombo is right...he's a respected guy who can coach the rest of the season and the staff is likely blown up at the end of the season anyways.

    He is just a temporary fill in.  The season is gone.  Next year (again).

    100% correct, and 100% what will happen. 

  • Hopefully...Jimmah went to dorseys office...told him that uou make all decisions.  Do what you want...ill write checks...you make decisions.

  • ESPN Cleveland Radio is funny ....... playing songs about leaving etc

  • I know many are over joyed and likely Hue did need to go. That said to me it’s depressing, yet another coaching change and rebuild.  Also hate to see us walk away from leading the lead in takeaways.

    IT doesn't have to be a rebuild.  Again...the rams got rid of their coach and didn't rebuild.  They got better.   Lots of teams get rid of their coaches and actually get better because of it.   Sounds like it was a pretty toxic locker room and quite the power struggle between Hue and his assistants, especially Haley.   Sounds to me like its all about the culture that Hue brings to the locker room and he has to go.

    Nailed. It.

  • They need next season find a upcoming coach who isnt a retread

    Right.  God knows how many times a coach has been fired and the new guy got a team to play much much better.   See even the Browns when Marty took over for Sam.

  • Just heard this on NFL network regarding the relationship between Hue and his assistants.

    Just said that Hue gave the team the day off after beating Baltimore and the assistant coaches were furious.

    Yea, you know, like Bill Belichick.

    A "retread" would not bother me.....if it is the right guy.

    Okay- honest question.  What do you want to happen?  All I see is you calling people wrong or the Browns awful lately.  (Like, a weird amount) Curious as to what you’d like to go down.

    The Rams hired their rookie Head Coach after their #1 overall bust at QB struggled his 1st year, and that seemed to work out just fine.

    The Browns have to hire the right guy.... not the most well known guy.... the right guy. 

  • Quote from Hue Jackson.........."Not sure if I've really been fired, I'll have to go look at the tape."    LOL

  • Good choice.

  • Totally fine with it. I really am curious to see what Haley and Williams do without the cloud of Hue over their heads. Saunders has been around the league forever and I'm not worried he can control the guys in the locker room.
