How Do You Measure Success? - 10/08/17 12:44 AM
The board seems to be split into 3 groups: blame Hue, blame the FO, or blame everyone. The season has not started out the way anyone was hoping or envisioning. It's not the losses. It's the way the Browns have lost. It's who they've lost to.
Regardless of where the blame is getting assigned, I would say most, better than 50%, are fine with riding this out and not firing anyone. But how do we know if the Browns are on the right track? How do we measure the success of this new regime? Anyone who works knows that you set goals and you are measured against those goals. This is how you know if you are successful or not.
How do we measure where we are and if there is progress being made?
I'm hoping this doesn't devolve into a pissing match. Or people taking sides. Or posters throwing insults towards each other. I'm genuinely interested in what people see as those measurements of success. I've thought about it and I don't have a clue. My emotional, fan side, simply doesn't see any progress. You watch other teams around the league, and they just seem so far ahead of the Browns in terms of being competitive. The Rams have the second youngest roster in the league. They are competitive. New coach, new system. No excuses. No "it will take time." They just field a competitive football team every Sunday. Whereas the Browns use the youngest roster marker as a reason for the losing.
So how do we measure if we are being successful or heading for success?
