And another blurb from today:

“Should the Vikings hire from within, assistant head coach Gary Kubiak could replace Stefanski. The franchise brought Kubiak in last offseason to guide the offense with Stefanski while installing core principles from the system he ran over 21 seasons as a head coach or offensive coordinator.…[Read more]

Keeping Wilks is a distinct possibility. Wilks was going to be Stefanski DC if he got the job last year as well

Here’s a different one from November for you:

Unless Kubiak comes with him I’m not holding any high hopes for Freddie Shurmur Stefanski as the next head coach

I linked an article from December about Kubiak above. But I guess you don’t believe Zampese was the architect of Mayfields rookie year either.

Except it’s not true. Kubiak fingerprints are all over their offense. I hope I’m wrong, but last I checked football plays stuff brainiacs in lockers. We need an alpha male to be HC. Not a glorified QB coach

Zimmer called all their defensive plays

Short version of the MKC article:

Wilks was going to be Stefanskis DC last year with us.

Browns love Salehs leadership (you know, the big go part of being a head coach) but loved how Keenum and Cousins performed under him as QB coach. You know, because in 2018 cousins completed 454 passes in 606 attempts (as a point of reference that’s 70 more p…[Read more]

You’re assuming he brings the same philosophy Kubiak has (the architect behind this year). That’s a tall order. My head will explode when he states he’ll be calling his own plays.

Not at all. We are talking about Haslam

Remember when he bought the team and I said his goal was to move to England? Not looking so silly now am I?

So they apparently made their choice by who was available first. Just when you think this organization can’t be anymore dysfunctional:

Per MKC:

The #Browns HC search came down to Kevin Stefanski and #49ers Robert Saleh, source tells me. Decision not finalized before their head-to-head matchup yesterday.

That means Mcdaniels wanted to fire Depodesta

If Kubiak is still under contract in Minnesota they can’t because he’s assistant HC. That would give me hope. Look for Kubiak to go to OC in Minnesota with the assistant HC title still there.

Yay for baseball guys picking coaches!

Done. And when we are looking for a coach in 1 to 2 years Saleh will be gone and it’ll be same old coordinator with 1 year of experience and no resume.

The guys Saleh supposedly wants to bring along are the types of guys everyone clamors for.

Dan Fouts said it best during the ass kicking of Baltimore is that a team takes on the personality o…[Read more]

Per Mary Kay

#Patriots Josh McDaniels has no plans to withdraw his name from #Browns search, Kevin Stefanski’s big playoff loss might not matter, word expected Sunday, and more search notes

Interim OC
Full time OC, Gary Kubiak hired as assistant head coach and offensive advisor.

Kubiak is the architect
