[CarolinaVeins]

#Browns Haslam: "We're not going to get into specific names. We think this is a very attractive job...Head coach will have final say/roster'

Sounds like Kelly or Gruden for the Browns then.

Really starting to sound like they'll go hard after Chip Kelly.

Pardon my ignorance, but what is attractive about coaching the Browns? Weeden/Richardson?

Meh.

Meh.

Keep in mind that comment came from the owner.

Meh.

They have a pretty legit defense. The offense is a mess IMO. Weeden was a bad pick and overdrafted as well. Richardson apparently played most of the season with 2 or 3 broken ribs, so I'll give him a pass for underwhelming this season.

Pardon my ignorance, but what is attractive about coaching the Browns? Weeden/Richardson?

Meh.

The HC will have the say with the roster=power from coach=attractive

[Salvo]

The Browns are such a pathetic and desperate franchise. They're averaging a coach every two seasons. Sound familiar?

[therealmjl]

Yeah I see, was just blabbering

[Kevin Greene]

The Browns are such a pathetic and desperate franchise. They're averaging a coach every two seasons. Sound familiar?

Familiar yes.

In the last 3 years the Browns have 14 NFL victories.

In the last 3 years the Panthers have 15 NFL victories.

Holy crap managemment at BofA sucks.

Here's a wild one (from KFFL)

Buccaneers | Coach hints at QB competition

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Greg Schiano said he believes in competition at quarterback, hinting the team may look for someone to compete with QB Josh Freeman.

Competition for Freeman? Seriously?
