Not a bad get by them.

I'm not sure that Weeden will still be the starting QB though.

BREAKING: Andy Reid close to completing a deal to become the Head Coach of the Arizona Cardinals.

Oh, wait.

Someone let me know when it actually HAPPENS.

The funny thing about this is that the "networks" were all 90 to 95% sure that Reid would be a Cardinals HC. LMFAO he didn't even go there for an interview.

Isn't Weeden older than Kelly?

Browns always fail. Looks like we made the right choice not going after him.

im not saying Ian Poopnshit is correct, but what the hell are some of these teams with a head coaching vacancy doing? who are they waiting on

there are like NO good options out there besides the potential of Chip Kelly and maybe what? Hoping you can convince Jon Gruden? Who else is there? You are going to get a fired coach in Lovie Smith or Ken Wisenhunt regardless.

How the Eagles and Cardinals and Chargers are just hanging out losing out to Chip Kelly to the potential shitpile crappy Browns is hilarious to me

The Chargers and Cardinals have a similar front office structure to what we used to have, so until they hire a GM, they won't be hiring a coach.

And while Lurie has said both the coach and GM will report to him in Philly, he also said he wants to hire a GM first.

So basically, all 3 teams are apparently looking for a GM, although there hasn't been a lot of chatter.

most of the GMs they want they cant get

didnt DeCosta say hes staying with Baltimore and I dont know what's up with the 49ers guy? It seems to be a lot of teams after a shallow pool of GMs they have no chance at getting.

And we have the wildcard on John Dorsey, so I'd love to see a crap team like the Jets try and steal him from us

You're dead on. I don't get it.

It just makes all the more obvious that Clark knocked this out of the park.

Can't speak for other teams but the Chargers are interviewing GM candidates right now.

I'd rather have Zimmer or Vic Fangio than Chip.

mcaj22 · 01-04-2013, 05:04 PM

lol waiting for these playoffs to end so teams can make a run at guys like Bruce Arians

theres only one Bruce Arians and clearly like 3 teams hoping they get him.

Good Luck Chip on fixing the Browns, A lot of peeps have tried.

Strongside · 01-04-2013, 05:05 PM

Hope he can turn them around. With the success our team has had, we should feel for their fans as well. Kindred spirits, they are.
