They're negotiating with ABC to start a new daytime soap.

Recruiting from the player roster for the new OC position? Cribbs to be new HC after we fire Saunders next week?? Announcing that the Browns have become a soccer team???
Browns is the Browns
... there goes Joe Thomas, the best there ever was in this game.

My original thought was a battle to the death between Saunders and Williams for interim HC spot. Dorsey and Haslem wanted first row seats for the fight so they ran down to the locker room where said battle was to take place. Subsequently, it's also why Williams is now being named the HC and not Saunders. Saunders is dead.

j/c:
Hue Jackson lost his brother and two weeks later lost his mother. A hour after hearing that news, he was back on the practice field at the scheduled time and coaching hard. We had a poster calling him weak after watching that particular episode.
Now, we have gloating over a man being fired and throwing classless insults at others.
This is the state of the fan base. Yup. Now... why is the Browns fanbase so bitter, full of bile, enraged, and wretched? Could it be the utterly incompetent Browns organization abusing its own fanbase for decades? Not years, DECADES! Could it be that fans either know or intuit that so long as the Haslams own the team, there is no hope of better days ahead? That despair and hopelessness are the only realistic path for Browns fans? So yeah, Browns fans are pretty crass and ill mannered. The Browns organization deserves all the fan abuse that it gets. They started it.

how does that mean it was Dorsey decision? or that hes in his doghouse. your reaching bro.
Haslam probably wanted hue, Dorsey gave his input, and haslam then agreed.
Haslem is a billionaire who owns the team, dorsey works for him. its pretty simple. Yeah, in light of the Haley firing, I pretty much have to retract those opinions which now don't withstand any scrutiny. Looks like Dorsey/Haslam got sick and tired of Hue and Haley bickering and blew them both out of Berea.

jc..
Thought I posted this once...
Another season down the tubes with nothing but more change in future.
The Browns retool again as the coaching staff will be fired and all new coaching for the young players to learn under.
Next year will be "another rebuilding year" with new playbooks for everyone.
Ultimately, this all falls on the Haslams...these were their choices..time for Haslam's to sell the Browns IMO.

Why is there always so much drama in Cleveland? More recently, the Haslams, and over the longer run, continuous gross organizational incompetence. Decades of it.

They gutted a roster with quality players on it, Schwartz is probably the bets right tackle in football and we squabbled with him over chump change and he walked.
Hue was not a great coach but he never had a chance.

Did Bill Cowher just buy another house in Strongsville? Needed a bigger house, bought one in Waite Hill. Cowher, Tressel, Saban, Urb, Bernie, Ferentz, they're all coming to coach in some capacity and moving in together.

Main character from 'The Office' TV show.
Not a compliment.
There is no level of sucking we haven't seen; in fact, I'm pretty sure we hold the patents on a few levels of sucking NOBODY had seen until the past few years.

#LeaderOfMen #PlayersLovePlayingForHim Never heard of him? During a candid conversation in "The Fire", Michael tells Ryan that he became a salesman because he loved to make friends. After being promoted to regional manager at a young age, he continued to treat work-related relationships as personal friendships. He acknowledges the difficulty because his colleagues are all lower than him in the workplace's hierarchy. He seems to have few relationships outside the office. In his interactions with other characters, Michael is shallow, callous, ignorant and unaware of basic social norms. He tends to overestimate his own importance in the eyes of his coworkers and cannot understand why they do not share his enthusiasm. Michael believes an office should be the "place where dreams come true." SOUNDS ABOUT HUE.

Pretty clear from this presser that Hue and Haley were toxic and it was seeping down to the players. Dorsey wasn't going to allow it to infect the team and mainly ruin Baker. Dorsey is in charge now. He clearly has Haslam's ear.

Dorsey is in charge now. He clearly has Haslam's ear. I will believe it when Haslam let's Dorsey hire the coach AND there is an organizational change where the coach reports to the GM and the GM reports to Haslam. Haslam is basically an incompetent jackass who Cleveland is saddled with as a bumbling owner. The sooner he sells the team the better.
After 55 years, I'm walking away from this dumpster fire. Good luck to everyone who continues to hang on. You'll need it.
