Browns Coaching Search
-
CLEconomically Speaking
Chip Kelly's staying at Oregon. Doug Marrone's gone to Buffalo. What now?
First of all.. DO NOT reccomend Jon Gruden or Bill Cowher. Would you come to Cleveland if you were a Super Bowl winning coach with a cake job working once or twice a week. Sorry Cleveland fans, the answer is no. Other than that: fair game. As long as you don't seriously reccomend Mike Trestman (CFL, Really?)
My personal choice would be Greg Roman, OC at San Fran. He has worked under Harbaugh since their time together at Stanford. Even if its Harbaugh's offense, tell me Roman hasn't absorbed some of his philosophies.. the Belichik tree has been extremely popular lately, how about we pluck some fruit off the Harbaugh tree while the getting is good. Also, Haslam and Banner have said that the want the GM (..sorry player personnel man) and the HC to be "joined at the hip." Guess what? Dave Caldwell (Player Personnel Director for the Atlanta Falcons) and Greg Roman roomed together at John Carroll University (in University Heights-a suburb of Cleveland).
How were these two not the front runners from the beginning? Maybe they were.
Conspiracy Theory: The Browns interest in Kelly and Saban was a Marketing ploy (building popularity for the Browns is clearly up there on Haslam's goals list, i.e. Road Tested on the Travel Channel). Trestman only got an interview so the Browns still appear to be actively searching, while in fact they are just waiting for the Falcons and 49ers to be eliminated from the playoffs to get their guys.
It makes sense doesn't it--CLEconomically Speaking? Interviewing big name guys and CFL coaches keeps you in the news, and in the end you still get your top choices. -

Post this in the Browns thread that's already under way. Thanks. -

Nothing wrong with having a separate thread for a rather expansive topic. -

Except its all that is being discussed in the Browns thread. Plus you hate big threads, so everyone wins (except you, which is optimal).

You really think I care about the coaching search for the browns? Not really. I'm just letting the new poster know that there is nothing wrong with separate threads. If people post here, they post here. If they post in the other thread, that's fine.

Who gives a fuck? Typical of you being a dramatic little girl. CoA helped out a new member, by giving him guidance on where to discuss this particular Browns subject, since you know we actually know where everyone enjoys discussing the Browns. Notice how Clecon didn't bitch and immediately posted the same post in the Browns thread? He is now having good discussion on the Browns thread as well. Nice fail. There is a reason why you are known as cry4fail. Now let this thread die, or shut it down. Thanks.Fly4Fun;1361782 wrote:You really think I care about the coaching search for the browns? Not really.
