  • This thread is kind of an exercise in mental masturbation, because I highly doubt Ron Rivera would even want to come to Cleveland. With Jimmah constantly overriding his FO's and analyst's recommendations and coaches having 1-2 years here before they're shit canned, why would Ron Rivera (or any other talented coach) want to waste their time coming here? The fact is, this team's HC job is pretty toxic at the moment.

  • Mike McCarthy is still out there. I have said it before, he's a winner,  has a proven track record in both regular season and postseason, has a Superbowl ring. The Browns will eternally be nothing but the doormat of the league until they get a REAL head coach. 

    And if not, Rivera would be my second option.

  • On the one hand, I don't want to change the coach after only one year, because I want some stability and he was a first time HC and probably needed getting some experience: 

    On the other hand, he made some stupid mistakes and the team underperformed and even showed a lot of disciplinary problems, so he didn't have a promising start, so let's play the HC change hypothesis: 

    I don't know any college promising coach, so I'm going to talk about the ones in Tour's list. 

    My favorites are Quinn, then Rivera and finally Marrone. I would stay away from Garrett and Gruden, and I don't dislike Lynn. Pat is pretty much done. 

    What I would LOVE, though, is having both an OC and DC calling plays, under a HC's guidelines. Because I'm freaking tired of watching Head Coaches having enough challenges leading a team wanting also playcalling duties. Fuck it, Mayfield always gets 10-15 seconds in the LOS presnap whereas other teams always have 20-25. 

  • I just don't see Freddie getting fired after one season, especially if they finish 8-8 or 9-7.

    Not saying he's done a good job, because he hasn't, but he's getting another season at least IMO.

    Well....I am of the opinion that the Browns have closed whatever player talent gap may have existed between them and the Spermsuckers and the Ratfuckers.....(except maybe in a couple of spots).    But they have definitely NOT  closed the gap much more than a scintilla  when it comes to coaching talent......and that is with the acknowledgement that the former HC is the worst in the history of the NFL  where the HC was not also the owner of the team.
