    Well there's Caldwell. Would Campbell be interested in the OC gig? But he's already assistant HC- a lateral move, the Saints could say no. 

    I'm talking DC.

    Those guys are OC.

    Kitchens will call his own plays and maybe promote some like Ryan Lindley to tune the meetings IMO.

    But we need a good experienced DC for that side of the ball.

    My bad... One site had both of them up on the DC list...  But who?

    Grossi just said Browns should hire Marvin Lewis as DC ?

    How about Todd Bowles?

    He has signed on as DC for the Bucs under Arians.

    Dick LeBeau....at what? 80 years old?  OK, no there. 

    Others say that since Kitchens is SO green....he should surround himself with former HCs  at DC/OC.

    Some names for DC:

    Mike Nolan  LB coach New Orleans  (former 49er HC)

    Chuck Pagano  former Colts HC

    Steve Wilks....recently fired Cards HC

    Vance Joseph...recent fired Broncos HC

    Jim Caldwell....former Lions HC 

    Other names...not prior HCs:

    John Pagano...LB coach, Houston (not sure if related to Chuck)

    Chris Hewitt  DB coach Balt.

    Brian Flores, LB coach Pats.

    It was reported....but OK.

  • Any flavor of the week DC will be gone after one season, once the Browns do what we know they can do next season.

    Bringing in an older, experienced coach that enjoys being a DC might be best. Even though that's essentially what just exited the building.

  • Thank you , Gregg....

  • Brad childress is available.  Just quit aafl.

    Dom Capers also comes to mind.

  • Bounty Hunter has nothing to worry about...the question is what current head coach will get fired(could be one of 11) so that he will step into one of those hc jobs that was begging for him....

  • Am sure GW won’t be short of job offers as a DC albeit a few less than the HC offers he used to get before even interviewing ?

  • Im disappointed gw didnt work out. I was positive that if they just built on last years scheme that we had an amazeballs defense. I thought the defense we had in the philly preseason game was what we would run with the rest of the season. If some of the weird scheme stuff he did during the year was a result of roster moves he didnt want but was overruled, than i worry we might have another walrus shuffling around berea. Shame. I really thought with a healthy myles and ward added to last years defebse, among some other tweaks.... that we would have had a top 10 D. 

  • 2 former defensive coaches that come to my mind that are out of the league, but would less'en the load on freddie would be Jack Del Rio or John Fox...Both were good enough at it, they both landed head coaching jobs..del rio is 55 & i think fits the attitude of the new browns.Steve Wilks was a good players coach at Carolina also..High Respect Gregg Williams! You took the worst tackling team I've ever seen & got them much Better..When Hue & Haley threw knives in the players backs..GW was their to pull them out & fight back..Thanks Gregg & good luck!

  • I like GW. The guys responded to him. Hope Kitchens can be tough enough to get these millionaires to pay attention. We'll see, can't wait.

    bounty hunter will probably latch on somewhere as a DC(i say probably, it's not a sure thing) but this idea that he's going to be able to go wherever he wants as DC is ludicrous.  There is a large % of the nfl that simply doesnt want to be associated with him at all.   be it DC, linebackers coach, or even concession stand worker.  

    Im thinking he gets another job, but its not a lock.

    Someone said it 1\2 jokingly- but now it's not out of the realm of possibility. Williams as HC of the Bengals....

    As I see it... Keeping Williams as HC, and Freddie as OC meant. If Mayfield blows up this coming season, Freddie would have been for sure gone to another team as HC.  Dorsey may have figured it would be easier to replace Williams than Kitchens....

    Was he promoted a year too early? Maybe. But Dorsey didn't want to risk losing him. And regarding JD- he hasn't made too many mistakes so far, let's see how this turns out.

    I've said it twice, and I wasn't even  1/8 joking. 

    Or as my dumbfuck boss has said multiple times, "2/16ths" joking.
