Browns hire Kevin Stefanski as HC
-
I know what you're trying to say, but the opposite would have to be true then as well, no?
First... love No Country... Javier's character was one of the most chillingly understated villains ever... up there with Robert Mitchum in Night of the Hunter.
I think the current level of agreement between metric and traditional evals vary greatly from position to position. The more positions are interdependent, the less reliable the analytics are for them. DE/Edge seems to me to be one of the more closely agreeing
One side comment on PFF... while they grade all of each selected players' games, their eval reports include considerable text on strengths and weaknesses they've observed. Awful lot of traditional scouting in their player summaries.

Honestly, might be my favorite villain character in any movie ever. The coin toss scene in the gas station? Legendary and fucking tense.
Agreed on the interdependence of the evaluations re: reliability. As for PFF, I feel they disregard a great deal of their traditional scouting should their grades speak to the opposite of what they see in normal film study. Which makes no god damn sense to me because that would have to mean that scheme, opponent and play design are even further discounted when producing a grade. Again, I hate to use Corey Coleman as an example but one of their articles at the time even admitted to his poor footwork, incredibly high drop percentage and system friendly play. The massive red flags were not enough for their staff to question their grade and thus overall projection of their draft ranking for him.
In short - I'm skeptical.

Clemson will win.
What do you know? I agree, they might. I hope not. I root SEC all day, every day.
Like OSU after every other SEC team.
Go SEC
If everybody had like minds, we would never learn. -

Dustin Fox tweeted that all potential HC hires had to agree to present game plans weekly to Haslam and DePodesta.

One of two things I see this as. Either ownership and management want to eliminate any future communication issues and instability among the coaching staff by verifying that these gameplans are developed, set and agreed upon by the coaching staff... - OR- Tennessee Jerry Jones just kicked into overdrive.
Either great or a disaster.

I was assuming that that statement was a joke of some sort? No

Which part? The Jerry Jones quip? It's sarcasm coupled with insult. I've been calling Haslam the Tennessee version of Jerry since he went over everyone's head and hand picked Manziel. An owner who is so convinced of his football prowess that his meddling has held back his own team.

Again, this has to be a joke, right? The owner and the "Strategic Planning Director" (which I believe is his title).....plan to micromanage things to that extent?
We are truly fucked then.
You would think that just hiring a new HC would be a moment of hope for this team for the future. That hope seems to have just been dashed on the Lake Erie Pier.

The part where the game plan must be submitted to the owner/Depo.
WTF do those guy know about putting together a game plan?

At least, I think, we have this going for us with this hire: Very low expectations. Clearly no one here is jumping up and down with enthusiasm and anticipation of a great season ahead. Anything better than a 6-10 season will seem like a major positive accomplishment.
Fair to say?
Between Freddie’s “coaching” and the defensive scheme. I’d hope we can be at least a .500 team taking out the two factors above

I'll make no predictions until I see FAs signed and the draft completed.

From what I've read from Dustin Fox and Daryl Ruiter, Stefanski is the head coach today because DePodesta knew that if McDaniels was hired, his days would be numbered.
Typical Browns.

So Stefanski was hired because the Browns wanted to keep DePodesta?

Never a M*A*S*H clip available when you need one...
Colonel Blake : [to Spearchucker Jones at the football practice] I had another idea. I think we should have some plays. You know, usually in football you have some organized plays...
Spearchucker : If you don't mind, I took the liberty.
Colonel Blake : Oh, you have...
Spearchucker : I drew up about seven or eight plays. I figure that's about all this bunch can handle.
Colonel Blake : Oh, these are good. These are very good. Uh, what are these little arrows?

They must have gotten that directly from Depo...

I think so.
Why else would Haslam give the power of running the head coaching search to someone whose contract runs out any day now? This was all a sham, it was Stefanski the minute Haslam handed the keys over to DePodesta.

Jeezus, Dutch... that's obviously pure speculation and as such a fucking stupid thing to hang your hat upon.
For starters Depo was one of five making the selection with the Haslam's starting off in love with McD. Do you really think he could persuade all the others simply because it was in his interest?

Who is speculating now?
Did the five making the selection all write the name of the guy they wanted to be hired on a piece of paper, then tally them up and whoever had the majority won?
If Dorsey hired Kitchens to avoid having a strong personality to contend with, why is it hard to believe that anyone who would want DePodesta gone would have zero shot at the head coaching job? Especially is DePodesta WAS RUNNING THE HIRING PROCESS? This isn't hard to connect the dots.
This would just be as typical a Browns move as any under the Haslams.

Oh shit you and cal too? We're fucked.?
