Surely Bienemi will find a HC job this year. And Saleh from San Fran.
Why?
Eric Bienemi (who I only remember for being a bonehead and calling a fake punt from being an onfield player in Cincinnati, unsussessfuly, and their own 20 yard line, in 1999 ish), but:
Eric Beinemi, why would he leave, the KC chiefs, if he's a hot prospect for a HC job, if,
lets see, the CONSENSOUS Best QB in all of football is Patrick Mahomes for slinging the ball like an artist,
and Beneimi is a coordinator with Andy Reid, who appeared to be a hundred, 4 years ago, I don't know his age, he can't coach forever,
What, is Benimi going to go coach the Bengals to 2-14 and 4-12 and get fired with Trevor Lawrence,
OR: wait 1.5-3 years and coach Mahomes to another Super Bowl his first year as Chiefs HC ??
But, if you say, listen to the propagandists who say he has to be lifted because of his skin color?
That same thinking would be outright racist to say he can't have self respect in his current position? Hmm.
Can Deshaun Watson play better for the Browns, than Baker Mayfield would have? ... Now the Games count.
That is why I wrote "1 more reason". You call Cam a RB playing QB others could state that he was a former MVP. But that is not the whole picture. I personally would stay away from him based upon what went down in Indianapolis. The other part of the picture is his failure in Denver. Didn't he also get his hand slapped for filming a 49ers practice? Add that to the allegations in New England that he may have been a part of. But the question has to be the same as that with BB. Was the Patriots success more Brady or was it coaching? This season would not slam the door on McDaniels if all other aspects were not a matter of fact. But, as I said, the season they had would not lead me any closer to Josh McDaniels as my choice as a coach. IMO.
Urban Meyer is meeting with the Jaguars today about their head coaching vacancy.
No deal is imminent and the team isn’t done interviewing other head coaching candidates, NFL Network reports.
Meyer has been identified since before Doug Marrone was fired as a potential next head coach of the Jaguars. Although Meyer has no NFL experience at all, he’s one of the best college football coaches of all time. He won national championships at both Florida and Ohio State, and his winning percentage of .853 is the best in major college football of any coach whose career started after World War II.
If Meyer does take the Jaguars job, speculation will immediately turn to what Meyer would want to do with the first overall pick in the 2021 NFL draft. Although Clemson quarterback Trevor Lawrence has been widely regarded as the clear first pick, Meyer may be the one coach who would consider Ohio State quarterback Justin Fields. Meyer never coached Fields, but Meyer has remained close to the Ohio State program and has repeatedly praised Fields not just as a player on the field, but for his leadership and character.
Meyer retired from Ohio State two years ago, citing health reasons, but he previously retired from Florida, citing health reasons, and that didn’t keep him out of coaching for long. If Meyer thinks he can win in Jacksonville, it shouldn’t surprise anyone if he takes the job.
I am SOOOOOO glad that we aren't riding the carousel this year; or any year, again.
same here ... how great will it be for Baker to have this stability
"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."
For the first time in I don't even know how long, we have STABILITY in our organization. Owner, GM, Coach.... all aligned, no drama, no power moves being made, no internal strife or discord, no petty territorial battles.
We have FINALLY finished building our foundation. It only took 21 years.
Browns is the Browns
... there goes Joe Thomas, the best there ever was in this game.
when we played them I was appalled at their defense lol

Would not like to see Kwesi Adofo-Mensah poached after one year with the Browns.
I want as many nerds upstairs in Berea as possible.
Plus, what a great name.
If Kwesi Adofo-Mensah gets hired as a GM, we get two 3rd-round comp picks, right? That would soften the blow from losing him.
I'd like to hear the answer on this one..
Quote:
The new rules, which are only awaiting approval from the NFL Players Association, state that a team that loses a minority coach or general manager that is hired as coach or GM of another team will receive a third-round compensatory draft pick in the next two drafts, as long as the coach or GM was with the original team for at least two years. A team that loses both a minority coach and GM would receive third-round compensatory picks in the next three drafts.

I assume they are the 3rd round comp picks, yes? That would make the most sense. A bit of a reward for teams bringing guys up through their ranks and what have you.
I would be shocked if Bienemy didn't finally get his shot.
Would be kind of surprised if Adofo_mensa got hired as a GM this season, but I guess we'd want him around for at least one more season anyway.
People ask me what I do in spring when there's no football. I'll tell you what I do. I stare out the window and wait for fall
It would be definitely be a bummer to lose Adofo-Mensah after only one season. I am of the opinion that it is better to have more smart people around than less smart people around. Add on top of that that we wouldn't be getting the compensatory picks and it makes me want to keep him even more.
I don't see this ending well if he's hired. Meyer will get bored and walk away after a couple years when realizing what a tremendous challenge this will be to build the franchise back to relevance.
I agree. LA would be one of my top choices ... Herbert and Bosa and a new stadium make it a neat spot

Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter Jacksonville and former Ohio St. HC Urban Meyer are in advanced talks to see if they can finalize a deal, per league sources. They met again Wednesday.
