Let's see if the Browns contact McDermott.

Yeah, Josh Allen in his prime will make that job a priority job that is open. If new coach does not keep Joe Brady OC he will also become a hot name that is available.

I wish I was confident in the head coaching search.

I don't feel good about these young coordinators with the roster we have.

Schwartz seems like the safest pick. He has a boatload of experience that doesn't come easy.

Jim will be able to hire a staff quickly.

I think he knows who he wants as a OC.

JS is easier to trust than guys who have not had head coaching experience.

With McDaniel now out of the picture.

Doubt in this search is creeping in.

How Monken is being considered is off the wall to me. He knows offense but he is not a guy who can run a team.

His personality is not right for the job.

Sure you can talk yourself into "hire the young hot coordinator; he will be the next McVay."

Except McVay was qualified. He was the OC for three years and he had great experience before that job.

Undinski has one year of experience as a OC. Scheelhaase was an assistant and is now a passing game coordinator.

They are supposed to come in assemble a staff and be the face of a franchise?

This is going the direction I feared.

I can see this going the way I feared from the beginning.

We end with someone others did not consider and get turned down by candidates going for better opportunities.

I'm starting to feel the same way, like we're going to have to settle for leftovers. Of course, we could do the smart thing and hire JS and then an OC if Rees leaves. That might be the easiest and smartest way out.

What I think should have been obvious from the beginning is the Browns are not a desired destination for top HC candidates. There are and were much better situations available to them. Only if and when those avenues are exhausted would they consider coming here. When someone turns down an interview as your HC to accept a position as OC on another team that should tell people all they need to know.


Intoducing for The Cleveland Browns, Quarterback Deshawn "The Predator" Watson. He will also be the one to choose your next head coach.
