Didn't Fisher's son pass up an opportunity to sign w/the Browns and instead choose to sit out next season?

Jeff Fisher's son Brandon will no longer coach with Cleveland Browns



By: Bryan Kalbrosky | 9 hours ago
Brandon Fisher, son of former Los Angeles Rams head coach Jeff Fisher, had planned to join Gregg Williams on the Cleveland Browns staff.


Gregg Williams expected to bring three Rams coaches to Browns staff
Now, Fisher has changed his mind and will not follow his former defensive coordinator to Cleveland.


Rams DB coach Brandon Fisher (son of Jeff) considered joining DC Gregg Williams on Hue Jackson's Browns' staff but plans to sit out in 2017

Williams was expected to bring Fisher, his own son Blake Williams as well as Dennard Wilson to Cleveland.

It remains unclear why Brandon has decided against coaching with the Browns.

According to ESPN’s Tony Grossi, Dennard Wilson was also expected to join Williams in Cleveland. Instead, he will be coaching with the New York Jets.

Coaches turning down the opportunity to work for the Browns is good news?

LOL...........okay.

I agree my friend. Maybe you agree with me as well. We hired Hue for his O. Anybody with a "set" is going to want to make his his own name. They aren't going to be thrilled to be handed the Hue offensive playbook.


The only ones willing, IMO, are slackers wanting to make a big jump without being any good.


If it was me, I walk in to the room, hand them my play book, and say this is what I am running. Take it or leave it.

Browns coach Hue Jackson has yet to hire someone to replace departed associate head coach-offense Pep Hamilton, and he plans to use his staff’s experience coaching in the Senior Bowl next week in Mobile, Ala., to help him decide whether an addition is necessary.
Jackson calls the play on offense, but Hamilton still held an important role last season. He served as a quarterbacks coach and helped install game plans and run practices.

So when Hamilton left the Browns on Jan. 9 to become the assistant head coach and passing game coordinator at the University of Michigan, the door opened for Jackson to make a key hire.

“I feel pretty good about our staff right now. I think people truly believe we have another position open, and maybe we do, maybe we don’t,” Jackson said Thursday night. “It all depends on how I see it and feel about it.

“I feel good about the guys I have, and [the Senior Bowl presents] a chance for us to go out there and practice and for me to watch our staff in its entirety and then see if we do need to make an addition. But I feel good about where we are right now.”

Jackson retained three veteran assistants on offense who could theoretically be used differently should he decide not to hire a replacement for Hamilton. They are running backs coach/run game coordinator Kirby Wilson, senior offensive assistant/wide receivers coach Al Saunders and tight ends coach Greg Seamon.

“I hated to see him go,” Jackson said of Hamilton. “He did what he had to do, but I feel like we have some very capable people here that can fill the void if need to.”

If Jackson ultimately sees a need to hire someone, he might run into some candidates at the Senior Bowl.

Phil Savage, the game’s executive director and former Browns general manager, calls the Senior Bowl “the unofficial NFL convention.” It’s not unusual for coaches looking to fill out their staffs to conduct interviews at the showcase.

But until Jackson decides whether he needs reinforcements, he considers evaluating prospects and developing a feel for coaching with new Browns defensive coordinator Gregg Williams his top Senior Bowl priorities.

“It’ll be great as long as me and Gregg don’t tackle each other before it starts,” Jackson said with a laugh. “No, it’ll be really good. Just being back out on the grass, it’s what we all love to do. We all love to teach, motivate, organize and get a group of guys to be the best they can be. We are there to evaluate as well. We want to ... see if we can instruct some men to do things our way and see if they’ll buy in.”

In the end, my guess there will be more firings because this team is going to lose a ton of games.

The problem is that we are more likely to go 2 and 14 than 6 and 10.

Isn't he basically an OLB?

but I think Williams alone would get us 2 or 3 more wins.

Yes, we should have.

You finally said something smart.

Btw That.............how you feeling about Shanny's route trees now? LMAO

Why?

Last year, I argued w/folks that Horton would not get us 2 or 3 more wins and that Hue wouldn't get us more than 3 or 4 wins.

How quickly people forget. We actually regressed from 7 wins to 3 wins to 1 win.

Changing coaches is so brilliant!

Hey peen.........you still haven't apologized about the Vambo thing. I told you earlier........you wanna side w/Vambo.....we are done. I'm not kidding.

No one defended you more than me back in the day. You know that. Vambo misquoted me and was trying to start a fight. He bad-mouthed me because I mentioned my son was sick in a football thread. You know, real life misery isn't important when talking about the moves the Browns are making.

You can both get lost!!!

Peen I agree with you. I never want to ever insult or attack someone on a personal level. Even in real life heated arguments I try really hard to never do that. Nothing gets accomplished from it.
