Maybe it would be easier for us to make a list of people we're not interviewing. Seems like we're looking everywhere. Maybe Banner & Lombardi just want to ride around in Haslam's plane.
So, you wouldn't complain if we were not interviewing a lot of candidates? LOL

PDR, Schiano has been ruled out as a candidate after his interview per Ian Rapoport and MKC.

Not complaining, just pointing out that we're interviewing a lot of people.
We're currently building a house. We've run into issues here and there, so the house is a little delayed than what we were expecting. But, in the end, my wife and I agree we'd rather wait but have everything be right than rush things and then have things go wrong.
I look at our coaching search the same way. I don't care that we've interviewed 274 people. In the end, I just want a good coach and I want a good QB.
We've gone the route of hiring guys quickly and it hasn't worked. We've gone the route of waiting and it hasn't worked. So, just get the right guy, whether it's today, tomorrow or in 2 weeks.
I am unfamiliar with this feeling of optimism

Same.
I have little faith in these guys already. Drafting Manziel and hiring Schiano puts the nail in the coffin.

Adam Schefter reporting that the Browns FO will meet with 2 coaching finalists tomorrow. I understand Pettine is one, but who could the other be? Is Quinn out as candidate? Hope not. Browns to meet w/ 2 Finalists tomorrow

I have a three year old nephew who "likes to play football on the TV." should we also look into him? Just because you're looking at candidates doesn't mean you need to look at every candidate. I know for a fact that there are many candidates out there who the Browns haven't interviewed that would be a better interview than Schiano.

I have no real opinion on the guy either way (don't know enough about him), but boy, talk about sending shockwaves through the world.

Wow. That was deep and enlightening.  Let's see if I can play? I have a 3 year old nephew who whines, cries, and throws stuff when things don't go his way, and he is probably acting more mature than most of you.

Well at least we know who he takes after :P
But if you just want to fight with another member because someone says something negative about the FO then feel free, but I'm not going to be as easily goaded as some of the others. But if you want to talk about football for a change then please feel free to respond.

I don't know. I read earlier that the Browns FO had already left the Senior Bowl before Malzhan arrived. As quickly as this information is coming out, I think it would have been reported somewhere they had met once already. Malzhan is interesting candidate to me though.

I just really wonder if there's another candidate as a finalist or if it's Quinn.

Isn't Farmer still there?
I don't think it is going to happen either.
I just wonder who this surprise candidate is? Malzahn would make some sense to me.

I believe he could be interviewed this week, but not be offered a position per league rules. There is also a report Browns don't have anything set up with Quinn. Browns: Quinn

You're correct, Farmer is still there. I really don't know who the other could be. I have a feeling it will come to light soon.

That would pull me right back on board. He is a guy I could see making a legitimate argument for as an upgrade from Chud. Many of these other candidates are just ... guys.

The guy was a flat out embarrassment in Tampa.
Hiring him would eliminate any hope I have for this regime.
We may as well rehire Mangini.
I'd rather have Mangini. Heck, I'd pick him up at the airport and drive him to Berea....and I live in Chicago.
Schiano would have really upset me (Caldwell was the other one that would have ticked me off).

Has to be Pettine and Quinn. Seems to be too late for a last minute entry...

I would be happy with Malzahn.
I am OK with Quinn.
I don't know a lot about Pettine. I suspect that he will wind up being the guy.

Now that's funny. You think he'd bring in his son as coordinator? What a dynamic duo!!

Well, that's the short answer. If anyone has the free time, type out the long one. 
I remember coming to the board that day and seeing something like 150 new posts in the tailgate and wondered what fun topic exploded. That was an interesting afternoon.

I'm no expert on Schiano, but the very little I do know, I want nothing to do with the guy as our HC. Maybe he'd be a good coordinator? I have no idea. Hell, I don't know if he's an offense guy or a defense guy.
But I know what I heard from people who follow Rutgers and I know what I read about him in TB. I want nothing to do with the guy.
Look at the number of Browns scouts that attended Rutgers.

That's a long drive from Midway or O'Hare to Berea. 
I don't think I'd want to stay in the same vehicle with Mangini for that long of a trip.

I'll cure that problem. Get a pick-up truck and tell him to get in the bed, it's gonna be a long, cold ride. Hopefully he'd brought his earmuffs and scarf.
