Re: Todd Monken Hired as Browns HC

Or the Browns could just honor his wishes and allow him to leave. Of course if they want to add insult to injury they could force JS into a marriage he hates being in. I don't see how anything productive could come from that. Just out of the kindness of their hearts!!!! If they do they would owe him $$$ for releasing him of his contract. Maybe if he forfeited that $$$ but I doubt he would do that. If another team like Pittsburg wanted to hire him do you allow him to go there for nothing? That is not good business. At some point people need to consider the long term ramifications of their actions. Let me explain what's not good business. Showing every coach on every level in the NFL that you are a team that will hire a new HC and then force a DC that doesn't want to work under the new HC to stay. They've already shown that they wanted to force a new HC to only have control of the offense and keep the current DC. That disaster didn't end well. As if the Browns didn't have enough trouble in the hiring process at HC this time, actions like that will make it even harder the next time. These people live in the business world. They understand contracts. Just like Garrett he had no real leverage. The Browns could have forced him to fulfill his contract, and they then could have franchised tagged him after that. People can yell and complain but that is business. I would expect them to work out a resolution with JS. Money talks. Ask Garrett. But if you think he is valuable you do not let value just walk out the door for nothing. Maybe a team thinks enough of him as a DC they are willing to trade a draft pick for him? Do you want to lose that opportunity. JS is angry and he has a right to be angry but at the end of the day he is a professional and he will either honor his contract or work out some kind of resolution to leave. I doubt the Browns or any other team that feels they have something of value will pay someone of value to just walk out the door. That is plain silly.

What in my post was inaccurate? Are you claiming the Nazi's didn't get due process? That there were no Nuremberg trials? Are you claiming he was threatening them with violence when all he stated is that they would be hunted down and tried in court?
I'm not even sure you know what a forest or a tree looks like.

With the hire of Monken, Carson Beck might be a guy to watch. Both had a lot of success when both were at Georgia.
Beck might be a 3-4 round target. Not sure were he might be valued but if Monken thinks Beck is a potential good fit, we might draft him.

And he's leaving anyway.  Honestly, if you could turn back the clock and draw up the worst-case scenario when considering firing Stefanski, we're watching it right now. Pretty much. Jimmy should have fired beady-eyed Berry. The fallout of this is losing Schwartz. Now we have both sides of the ball to fix, if in fact Schwartz leaves. Sometimes initial reactions change after a few days, but I have a feeling they won't in this case. The happenings over this last month or two have cemented a feeling I have milled around for the last couple of years. After 19 seasons as a season ticket holder I am not going to renew for a 20th year. lol...See comment above about initial reactions. There are a lot of reasons involved, not all football related. When I first got them, I was traveling up to 5-6 games a year for several years and figured I might as well get season tickets. 20 some years later I am going up to maybe 4 games a year. Might as well just go back and buy tickets online.

I didn't change anything. You yourself posted you got that information from the very source the OP posted. So the source didn't mislead anyone.
Tell me how any of that is a lie. Don't worry I'll wait
And I'm not the one who lied about "being done for the day."
If I had any doubt before, which I didn't, Republicans are no longer the party of personal accountability.

We literally sabotaged our entire search by telling every prospect Scwartz had to stay. Now he tells us to GFO.
There is no way / no how you could ever sell this 30-year script to Hollywood. Never. You'd have a better chance selling E.T. as a documentary.

Do you have any actual evidence he is "George Soros backed"? I didn't think so. I understand why you would be so upset he promised to give them due process just like the Nazi's had unlike what they are doing to immigrants.

No, for the commonsense reason he just stated. I don't understand people being appalled by the very process in which over 90% of these cases work out lol.

Now I'm done for the day.  Let me guess. It's all my fault that you have a total lack of self control and can't live up to what you post. So all you really did was post that while it is 100% factual that 10k were lost some of them were replaced later directly from the very article you claimed was misleading? Well done! It makes me wonder what the hell you've been taking.

Well Jim Schwartz is under contract for another year. If he wants to continue coaching, he must do so for the Browns in 2026, retire, or another team trades for him. That really is his only options at this point. If the Browns want to retauin him they do not have to release him for nothing. Kind of like the Garrett situation last year. The Browns for 1 more year hold all the leverage. When is the last time a team traded for a defensive coordinator? I cannot remember but I doubt any team is going to trade for a defensive coordinator Then unless the Browns relieve him of his DC duties, he will be our defensive coordinator in 2026 or he retires. Who says he is going to retire? Schwartz might go to another team How? He's under contract with the Browns. The very conversation you just quoted is discussing his options. Try and keep up, bud.

Schwartz might go to another team Unless the Browns release him from his duties or ei fire him as they did Stefanski and there are financial ramifications that the Browns would owe him for the 1 year remaining on his contract so that he can only get out of his contract by a promotion like taking a Head Coaching role. A lateral move like taking a Defensive Coordinator role with another team would require that team to trade for him.
