Shurmur in town today too

[rayzor]

Well then he went to an organization in Cleveland who we clearly have a lot of respect for "how they do things."

you want a losing team? you get staff from cleveland.

you transfer one losing culture to another. it would literally be an infusion of suck.

[Future of the Funchise]

I'm down for Action Hue Jackson. Interviewing Shurmur is a waste of time. Bringing him in would be like sabotaging the team, unless we are going to start playing to the Jimmy Clausen's strengths. He's the only QB on our roster who's a WCO QB.

Familiarity.

Shurmur and Rivera worked together for five years in Philadelphia.

if this is the basis for the decision any fleeting hope i have in rivera will have flown out the window.

[rodeo]

Rivera has quite a familiarity with losing, it seems.

[Mr. Scot]

For those who want to look...

Browns Coaching Bios

[Stroupe-a-loop]

I just cannot fathom how we are considering a dude whose only OC experience is a 1-15 team.

There was a 7-9 campaign in there. Damn near respectable.

[LinvilleGorge]

it would literally be an infusion of suck.

Lulz

It's funny because it's true

Oh boy batten down the hatches

[rayzor]

There was a 7-9 campaign in there. Damn near respectable.

it's as close as we've been the last 4 years.

[Salvo]

That 7-9 year for the Rams wasn't exactly impressive. They beat up on a few NFC/AFC West teams (back when they were terrible), smacked us around with Pickles, and beat the Redskins. Whoop de do...

The only thing this guy has going for him is his work with McNabb in Philly...and even then, so what?

[Ruff]

Hell no to Shurmur. As said many, many times on this forum... Cam is not a west coast offense QB. And that's exactly what Shurmur wants to run.

Give me Jackson or Whisenhunt, plz.

[Mr. Scot]

To update one other thing (which people probably won't like) it's now unclear whether Hue Jackson interviewed today or not.

Two or three different sources said he was to interview today (Schefter actually said he was in town and interviewing) , but Person's blog entry about Shurmur indicated they were still trying to arrange the interview.

[Mr. Scot]

Word that the Jets want to interview Shurmur too.

[UNCrules2187]

Person has consistently been saying that the Panthers haven't yet asked to interview Jackson while both Breer and Schefter have said he was (and is) interviewing today.

I think I'll go with Breer and Schefter on this one.
