IF we go with Gase, then logic would tell us that we are definitely ALL-IN on a top QB this year. I think this because the logic in the argument that Gase is somehow riding the Manning success express means that he needs a QB with comparable football knowledge or field generalship.
I don't see one of those in this draft.. Anyone else see one?

Random thought: I just can't help but wonder what the reaction would have been around here if Shurmur would have been fired after 1 year. I don't for one minute think it would have been nearly as crazy as it's been because it was Chud.
I would have been just as livid as I am now. Firing a coach after just 11 months is stupid.

Chud, in the eyes of management, being the wrong coach. You are stating it be wiser to keep for two or three years in hopes things change?
To me, this is a no win situation. Could they have done a better job in the beginning? I don't know. Fans already assembling gallows while FO is doing more searches this go around. Can you imaging if Browns' FO were in this state last year? How does one know they get it right the second time? It is no different anywhere else. You read a resume, interview, hire, and hope!
Every company is looking to hire a up-and-coming executive.

And it doesn't look as if we have a chance of getting him.. So, therefore, no Manning in this draft.

Yeah, I did. Pretty funny.
I'm become numb to this whole process. I could care less who we hire anymore...as long as they win.

Agree! Who is to say who is right! Media is in a feeding frenzy with negative reporting. Fans are all up in arms Browns didn't hire a fired coach. It's simply crazy.
Why not some up and coming new guy? Flip a coin whether this guy works or not. If they get it wrong, what the heck we are already under .500 last several years.

Ok, I'm not defending the interview process in general or this guy specifically.. I just think it's funny that because folks here have never heard of him and because he hasn't commanded a top 10 offense or defense and because he isn't the next hot HC candidate we assume its a silly choice for HC... When in fact, every time we've tried the conventional way, it's failed miserably........ Think outside the box Jimmy. I like it.

I have a friend that is an Equipment Manager for the Stanford football team, at this point, wondering if we'll see his name come across the board as an interviewee.

Banner and Lombardi will interview everyone until they can find the right puppet.
They just have to nod their head in agreement just right for them.

Actually I don't mind it. ST coaches is a place to showcase some real coaching. You have a lot of young men, new to the league who probably don't know how to play the positions, and you have a lot of turn over there. I just think Seely would be a good coach and he has the magical Lombardi ties.

I have a novel thought, they might actually be interviewing him for another position but under the guise of being interviewed for the HC position. Even so, he as an asst. HC, so it's not like it's a huge leap to go from ST coordinator to HC.

I don't think either one of them is really driving this bus. Haslam is at the helm on this one with Banner in the passenger seat. Lombardi isn't even in the vehicle.

Belichick has said that ST coaches are the best coaches. They have to pull guys together from everywhere and have them function as a unit. Best organizational skills.
I am unfamiliar with this feeling of optimism

Harbaugh and Cower were special team coaches. That's just right off the head, I'm sure there's plenty more.

yeah they may have been, but they didn't go from ST to HC...thats just a silly decision to even consider him for HC...this whole search is just ridiculous and I have lost complete faith in this FO. Something tells me that the guy they wanted and they thought they could get flat out refused or they interviewed him and he didn't blow them away like they thought. So now they are trying to get cute and are grasping at straws under the guise of "doing due dilligence"

Actually, Harbaugh went from ST coach to DB coach to HC.......was never a coordinator of any kind. Cower began his career as a ST coach, but was a DC at the time of the Steelers hire.
I know squat about Rich, but the fact that he hasn't been a OC/DC is not a big deal to me. I don't see how he is any less qualified than any other non-HC experience candidate that we have interviewed. The guys with no prior experience have a rather high failure rate anyway so I don't think there is a pre-defined career path that they have to take to get a HC job.
Due to the odds of success/failure, I'm really hoping for Munch, but we are probably going to role the dice with one of the young up and comers.

J/C… Looks like Mike Pettine may be getting a 2nd interview…..according to his daughter. It appears she may have closed her twitter account after she leaked the news. Dad might not have been happy leaking that info. Interesting if true. Definitely would not have seen this one coming if hired. Second Interview for Mike Pettine?

Harbaugh was never a ST coach, he was a QB coach with Raiders, then became HC of University of San Diego, then Stanford, then an NFL HC...alot more experience than that scrub from Dallas...i wouldn't want a single coach on Dallas staff
