Yeah, let's not forget, the media was practically trying to crown the Browns as this year's Super Bowl champs before a game was even played this season.

Let’s also be real and not forget 99% of the people on here we’re already trying to crown a Hurney crafted roster as a good thing at the same time.

I laugh every time I see someone post this about "personalities don't change after 20s, 30s" stuff.  It's good comedy, keep going!

You know a lot of people who aren’t fundamentally the same person at 60 they were at 30? I don’t mean acquiring more knowledge or skills, I mean having the same basic personality traits. Because I don’t know anyone personally who’s had that kind of change.

And btw, I said 30, not 20’s and 30’s, and there’s a meaningful distinction. Cognitive development continues until about mid 20’s

Mary Kay Cabot confirms what we suspected. The Browns watched last night's game and took the loser.

Apparently, having the guy that's available sooner matters more than the guy who's better.

Keep laughing. I assume it’s the only response you’ve got, cause you’re not going anywhere on the merits.

I didn’t pull that out of my rear like many huddle takes. There’s peer reviewed research behind it.

Really? I think it was more like a small handful while the rest of us were horrified of the thought of another Hurney regime. Not as horrified the thought of a McDaniels regime, but horrified nonetheless.

Again, I was very interested in McD, but if he needed that much control, I'm not sure that is what we needed. I'm more in the camp of having some checks and balances, at least until you prove yourself. McD hasn't proven himself yet.

McDaniels has the luxury of waiting for a team to meet his demands.  He’s got tremendous job security in NE as well as a fat paycheck.

If the Browns really wanted to hire the architect of the Vikings offense they probably should have talked to Gary Kubiak, the wizard behind the curtain.  If he is recovered from the health issues that forced his to leave the Broncos, he is a much better option.

Per Florio...This year, Kitchens failed. Stefanski, well, it’s not clear what he really did. He spent the full season as offensive coordinator in Minnesota, but by all accounts the credit for Minnesota’s chicken-salad recipe went to assistant head coach/offensive consultant Gary Kubiak. Indeed, when head coach Mike Zimmer calls Kubiak, not Stefanski, “probably the best thing that’s ever happened to me since I came here,” that says plenty.

Not a good look when Haslam is making better decisions than you (although it was really DePodesta, who had previously recommended Sean McDermott)

Any decision Haslam makes, but default, is a bad decision.  He doesn't have any accrued brownie points for "lets see what happens" or "this is probably a good decision" until he starts getting results.

There is a saying, "Like attracts like", meaning people with a low frequency -- people who are insecure and self-abandoning -- attract each other, while people with a high frequency -- people who love and value themselves -- also attract each other.  This is the law of attraction.  The Browns are losers so it's no wonder they saw themselves in Stefanski (the loser) and disregarded Robert Saleh (the winner).  #science

Or it could be more simpler.

One could also say they wanted an offensive minded coach to help fix their offensive issues.  Which were the most prevalent.

Remind me, what kind of coach was Freddie Kitchens again...?
