We had no chance at McCarthy. He signed a 5 year deal with the Cowboys. No way the Haslams were gonna pay him to sit on his couch for 4 years.

That is freaking weird.

Can you please, for the love of god, explain why you think he adds zero value?? I’ve seen you bash him multiple times for absolutely no reason.

And I can’t figure it out. I haven’t heard any moves attributed to him, aside from him wanting Sean McDermott over Hue, and Stefanksi over Freddy. You would have loved the M…[Read more]

I hate McDaniels. I hate that he turned his back on the Colts, and the coaches he was lining up, when he decided to stay in New England. I hate that he thought Tim Tebow was a first round talent. And I hate that he wants roster control, or his guy in control, which is really roster control by proxy. Belichick is disciples don’t have success d…[Read more]

*at MOST 2 years, with a possibility of going as low as 8 games

Not crazy about Garrett. I feel like Baker would push him around.

I just realized, I think I’m holding Holmgrens failure against McCarthy. That’s probably the man reason I don’t want him. That, and I don’t know how good he’d be without a HOF QB.

Sign him, and he video magically comes out and he’s placed on the commissioners double-secret-probation exempt list.

One more thing: I usually get the “well, we got Ward with that pick, so you can’t hate that.”

I don’t hate that, but I’d counter with if we hate taken Watson, we could have traded the 1st pick (if we even had it) to a QB needy team that wanted Baker (or Darnold) and gotten a future 1st and still drafted Ward.

I HATE that draft. We were set up poorly going into the draft, with nothing at QB. I think Cody Kessler was our only “viable” QB, and it was obvious we weren’t going with him long term. I was screaming for them to sign somebody, ANYBODY else before the draft so it wouldn’t be so obvious, but they didn’t. And they went into the draft with a bi…[Read more]

Who’s the salary cap guy? And why would he care about the HC? We’re already paying like a dozen coaches to not coach for us. I Don’t think we have much of a cap on coaches salaries.

If it’s true that he was against Hue and Kitchens, than I support him running the search, lol.

That said, sounds like a lot of people are against Kevin Stefanski, but he may be my preferred choice at the moment. He runs the Kyle Shanahan offense that leans on running and play action, and I think The players we have, specifically Baker, would t…[Read more]

Paul Depodesta!! What do I win for guessing the common bond??

Soup didn’t WANT Dorsey fired, he just predicted it.

I’m ready to go full Dude and just respond with Jimmy Haslam is a loser to every post until they sell the team.

Schefter and Rapoport both reporting that it’s looking like Dorsey and the Browns will part ways.

Death, Taxes, and Haslam’s ineptitude.

Rhule has said he won’t go to the NFL unless the situation is just right. It’s rumored that that means some level of personnel control. If that’s right, he can stay at Baylor. Buh bye.

Also, Browns requested permission to interview Eric Bienemy.

Ah, now I see. I hadn’t heard the Depodesta was untouchable. Weird. Also seems weird that there’s no consistency between HC’s that they’re looking at. Offense, defense. Young, old. Experienced, inexperienced. College, NFL. Are the casting a wife net, or just throwing the proverbial shit at the wall and seeing what sticks? I don’t k…[Read more]

I agree Haslams he issue, but I’m confused what you’re getting at about keeping a numbers guys over a football guy. I feel like you’re connecting some dots that I’m not.

Depodesta was an economics major in college, and played college baseball AND football. He’s a numbers guy, more than a baseball guy, which makes him useful in a sport with a salary cap.

More importantly, it’s been reported/rumored he wanted Sean McDermott and was vetoed when the Browns signed Hue, and he wanted Kevin Stefanski and was vet…[Read more]

Look at the Haslams track record, and please tell me what you find that led you to believe this wasn’t going to end in disaster.
