Well Crennel has stated a few times his support for Orton to be the QB next year. McDaniels(if we end up with him somehow) ended up having more success with Orton than he did Cassel, and he had a far better supporting cast with Cassel too.

If you aren't even sure who they are, how can you tout them for DC?

I like Romeo better than Haley or Herm. The bar can't get any lower :)

Thats exactly what too many people are forgetting, there isnt a single 'sexy' candidate out there.

And as for Romeo being a 'lackey' or 'foot shuffling porter' to Pioli... ANY coach brought in is going to have to reckon with & cede some power to him, for as long as he's here, period.

Give Romeo a bona-fide OC & lets move on.

Yeah...However, I think Pioli will get final say WHO the QB will be.

In the said scenario...

Pioli: "Josh...you did pretty well with both Orton and Cassel."

McDaniels: "Yes"

Pioli: "Well seeing Matt has 'chemistry' with the current players and is already under contract...let's try to rekindle that relationship between you guys. Orton will get an offer somewhere."

McDaniels: "Yes master"

RAC: "But I said Orton sho..."

Pioli: "There is no more to be said regarding this topic."

Exactly what I'm afraid of...hiring Romeo full time and bringing in McDaniels gives Pioli nothing but yes men around him.

They beat a team they shouldn't have and lost to a team they shouldn't have.

They didn't have a legit shot at jack shit.

I don't think so. I know it flies in the face of what everyone around here believes, but I don't think Pioli ever tells coaches who plays and who doesn't. It's not his job. And no matter how egotistical Pioli is, telling his coaches who to play would mean NO ONE would be willing to coach the Chiefs.

So far we've gotten Todd Haley, after 2 years as a semi-successful coordinator, and Romeo Crennel, who is lucky he's even being considered for another HC job.

So saying "nobody" is willing to coach here is actually pretty accurate.

The thing is Cassel was always our best option because Pioli didn't want to bring in anyone else. Last year he drafted Stanzi, and now he signed Orton. Pioli isn't going to be blind to how much better Orton was in all three of his games than Cassel was all year on the same team.

Exactly. If it was up to Pioli, Palko wouldn't have been starting as long as he was. Its no coincidence that a QB change game after a coaching change.

How is he lucky to get another job? How many of the great coaches have only coached one team? The Browns have been bad under every coach, including the great Bill Billichick.

The constant three and outs on offense had plenty to do with this ..
