Miyagi-Do Karate Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 @MaryKayCabot League source told me he believes #Seahawks DC Dan Quinn has still been in the mix for #Browns job today. Haha; told you guys I won't believe this until the browns announce this at a presser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Never NEVER Give-up Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 (edited) Browns Attempting to Hire Pettine as HC Article on NFL.com sez Pettine wants it badly and discussions Thursday centered on who will be DC and who will call plays for the Offense. Hmmm. What the heck did they talk about on Tuesday and Wednesday!?!?!?!?!?!?!? Browns look pretty bad in this ordeal!

BarleyNY Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 @MaryKayCabot League source told me he believes #Seahawks DC Dan Quinn has still been in the mix for #Browns job today. Hearing there is a contractual hold up regarding say over roster. Smart move by Pettine. Quinn from Seattle would be backup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bananathumb Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 No fears now. That great football mind, Mike Schopp, just declared that he doesn't care if Pettine stays or goes, because there "about 900 guys in the country" who could take over and do the same job. I am so relieved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awesome-- really shrewd. Pettine has all the leverage at this point. I would demand as much control as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Lombardi is most likely the one fighting Pettine on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 I heard that Pettine wanted 4 yrs/$25 m. Then Haslam countered with 4 yrs/ $5 billion in Flying J rebates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

offyourocker Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 I know everyone here disagrees, but I think the Browns are (were) the most desirable open job this year, despite the front office turmoil. They have very good defensive personnel, a ton of draft picks this year, including two number ones, a pro bowl tight end, and the best young WR in football. All they need is a QB and they are well-positioned to pick one up in this year's draft. I think they are a much better bet to make the playoffs next year than the Bills. They have a lot of talent. And Pettine will get a better OC than we have. I would expect them to make the playoffs next year. They were closer than the Bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were closer than the Bills. How so? They won 4 games and were on the verge of losing to Buffalo at home on a short week until EJ got hurt and Tuel couldn't manage a first down.

Big Turk Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 (edited) Yeah I mean only in Buffalo does a 6-10 record get your coordinator poached by another team...anywhere else a winning record is a prerequisite...I swear we are cursed by a higher power Edited January 23, 2014 by matter2003 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were closer than the Bills. They do have some talent on their roster (more than the Bills, I don't know), and Pettine, if nothing else, showed in one season in Buffalo, he can get the most out of underachieving players. However, not so sure about the OC, or any of their assistants, to be honest with you. With the way their coaching search went, and their reputation for being impulsive, they may have the same problem the Bills have had for years, in attracting established assistant and position coaches...any OC they hire, from the sounds of it, will have their fortunes tied to Johnny Manziel. That may or may not be a bad thing, but the it sure sounds like ownership there is as meddlesome as it could possibly be...not sure how many established guys would want to sign up for that...but, again, I suppose there are only so many jobs to go around. My hope is, Pettine does not nab Pepper Johsnon as his DC. I am guessing Petttine has been coaching long enough that he has guys in mind that aren't necessarily big name guys. Oh well, was hoping this wouldn't happen, but life goes on... Edited January 23, 2014 by Buftex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
