Thomas Brown on wife's social media

[Mr. Scot]

This basically confirms that yes, it was his wife and the exchange was legit.

And I'm pretty sure he does have a reaction to it, but he's wise to keep it quiet.

I can appreciate her taking up for her husband but she needs to stay off of social media so she does not jeopardize his opportunity to be hired this off season.

[Waldo]

Going down with Frank to get paid unemployment is starting to look pretty good about now. 

Any ideas if he was a knife wielder in that affair yet?

I. Think his play calling has done that for him 

no way is he ready to be a coordinator

To be fair, I didn't say as a coordinator, just hired at some position.  I agree, he has shown nothing as a play caller.

The sample size is small, but his playcalling has been atrocious. Just look at last game. Run for over 200 yards and doesn’t trust the team to get a yard on fourth down. 
 

Any team that hires him to be a play caller is making a mistake, and while I understand his wife sticking up for him, I don’t think the NFL is cut out for mama boys.

It's not just the playcalling. He wrote the playbook.

I would guess he'll get another job as a runningback coach somewhere, and maybe with more time he'll be ready to be an OC.

Unfortunately for us, this is the second time in the last few years that we've put an "up-and-comer" in that spot only to find out they weren't ready yet.

His wife went a bit far and he's not going to comment much on it.  It's really a non-issue. They all know they're all gone anyways, that's pretty much what she was saying. 

He's got some good coaches who respect him (not necessarily as a playcaller) and imagine he'll end up in Minny or LAR in due time in a similar capacity to what he was.  

Nothing to really see here.

Smart man not publicly criticizing his wife. I’ll give him that. 

[HardcoreHokie]

So 13 games in and we’ve fired our new:

Head Coach

Quarterbacks Coach

Running Backs Coach

And effectively our new Offensive Coordinator

With our Special Teams Coordinator running the show

Got it.

The "we know we're already fired" part was essentially correct, but putting it in a way that made it sound like they were just going through the motions was a bad look.

Don't know that it'll follow him given all the dysfunction this team has anyway, but it probably would have been better left unsaid.

If my wife got on Facebook or any other social media platform and started trashing my bosses, I would be angry with her.  Just don't see anything positive coming from it.

Yeah and then they’ll go elsewhere and succeed (Joe Brady).

Just like the players that fail here and succeed at their next stop (too many to name).

Brady went down a step to quarterback coach and got more experience. His second stint as an OC has a limited sample but so far looks better than his first one.

Won't surprise me if Brown does the same thing.
