Not gonna quote the entirety. 

But thank you for the relevance, research, and time you put in your posts! - Viewer

So yeah, this is not a joke, not a parody, not a story from The Onion and not a drill. It's really happening.

Quit making threads!!! Youre not even a mod

Quit quoting entire posts, especially long ones, very annoying.

The Browns doing things that make sense is a little too far out a concept for me to wrap my mind around 

Well except for the time that Kevin Costner outwitted the whole league...

Watching the Browns succeed was how you knew it was just a movie.

But hey, at least the Browns were smart enough to fire Hue Jackson.

I can't imagine the kind of self-loathing that it takes to be a Bengals fan.

Got a friend who is a died in the wool Browns fan and she and I have joked about the fact that she loves that movie more than any season in her living memory.

I grew up with a Browns fan, but he and I are old enough remember a time when they were at least half decent.

Of course, that was the old Browns, wasn't it? Say what you want about him, and Lord knows plenty has been said, but Modell did at least build a winner.

The new Browns have been an absolute disaster pretty much from the beginning.

A few updates...

Eric Bieniemy has chosen not to interview with the Cardinals, but accepted an offer to interview with the Bengals (when you get passed over in favor of the Bengals...ouch).

On the flipside, Josh McDaniels said a polite "no" to an offer to interview with the Bengals.  They've since shifted their interest to Bucs OC Todd Monken and, of course, Hue Jackson.

Speaking of Jackson, if he doesn't get the Bengals job, old colleague Mike Zimmer might give him a shot to be the Vikings next temporary OC.

The Packers are planning to interview Saints OC Pete Carmichael for their head coaching job along with Dan Campbell.

The Buccaneers have reportedly added Kris Richard and Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly to their list of potential candidates.

The Jets have added Adam Gase to their interview schedule.

On the assistant front, although it's generally expected that Dirk Koetter will get the Falcons OC job, they have also reportedly interviewed Mike Mularkey (who's also held that job before).

Also of note: the Browns are denying permission to other teams who want to interview Freddie Kitchens as an OC prospect. Nobody outside Cleveland has asked about him as a potential head coach (yet).

In executive news, The Dolphins have "reassigned" Mike Tannenbaum away from the football side of their operation (yeah, he's fired). The Raiders went the more direct route, firing VP of Player Personnel Joey Clinkscales (because Gruden).

On the flipside, the 49ers are interested in possibly bringing failed Colts GM Ryan Grigson aboard their operation.  An operation which, by the way, already included former Lions GM - and an architect of their 0-16 season - Martin Mayhew (because 49ers).

[Mr. Scot 51,051]

Looks like Saints DC Dennis Allen is hitting the circuit too.  He's getting an interview with the Dolphins.

Also just saw that the Raiders have added Ryan Grigson to their front office, because hey why not?

[Mr. Scot 51,051]

Quick note on Richard...

 

[Mr. Scot 51,051]

Side Note: This guy the Raiders fired actually has a pretty good rep.

Every time I see or hear the name "Jim Bob Cooter" I can't help but wonder if that name is the longest running troll job in the history of pro sports. I just can't wrap my mind around the possibility of that actually being a real name. That's straight out of The Onion.

Maybe you should... Google Jim Bob Cooter. ;)
