Bermeck (my southern Ohio bungle friends already giving me crap about Hunt... talk about hypocrisy !!!)

Just keep reminding them about Joe Mixon and Adam Jones.....

Think they might be a bit worried about being AFC North cellar dwellers for the foreseeable future?

I think the Haslems have learned their lessons (finally)

lets hope they keep to writing checks, putting money in the community, and continue to get Dorsey his coffee 

Acquisition of Kareem Hunt is your proof.

Haslam is a whack-job.  But Dorsey is so good  that we've got people wanting to come here IN SPITE of the fact that we've got a dope for an owner.  And it only works while he stays in the background.

Who hired Dorsey? Who hired the guy who recommended hiring Dorsey? Who perhaps learned a bit from past mistakes and sat in the front row when his 5th HC was announced?

Well said choco!

Yes, Wilks said as much in his introductory presser. Talent, and wanted to be here. One interview- with the Browns. Priefer had several offers from other teams to coach special teams.

This is VERY positive stuff.  NFL people  want to come.  They see something.   -  It's one thing for talking heads to say stuff but it's only real when you see it happen.  Again, hopefully this trendy Browns thing continues into free agency.

Yes.  But we actually had coaches that WANTED to interview for our head coaching position.  Obviously Bruce Airiens petitioned for an interview.  We got Monken to come here and NOT even call plays.

I think coaches are seeing the Browns as a place where they can grab onto it's coat-tails and be seen as part of the REASON the Browns became successful in 2019 (and beyond).  That being part of the Browns can be GOOD for their career.  A springboard to a possible head coaching position, instead of a catapult into the abyss......which is what we WERE viewed as.  And it's all because of Baker Mayfield and John Dorsey  (and also because of Landry, Chubb, Njoku, Garrett, Ward and the rest of the young talent.  But let's face it, if you take away Dorsey & Mayfield, you're left with Haslam & Tyrod Taylor.)
