Obviously they can't ,yet the rest of the list is knees a foot and a neck pretty sure I can find a few other knees that I can add on ,I all so realize "every team" has injuries but to me any way they need to go back to a grass field but I do wonder why the Jets don't have the same problems.

That's a bit of a surprise. Seems like he could have had any job he chose, why would anyone choose the Browns?? (And yes, I know the same could have been said about the Skins from 2002 to 2015)

Jackson will just do what all the others have done, Cleveland is just so poorly ran it's a joke.

49ers still cant find a coach or does everyone keep turning them down? Says a lot about the management of that organization.

They might be waiting for Josh McDaniel

SF should just hire Kelly. See if he could get Kap back to playing like he did a few years ago.

I think SOMEONE wants to say they fixed them. Good luck with that.

The Browns are so bad that I don't think there is a downside for Hue taking the job.
If he does well, he gets all the credit for turning them around.
if it's another shit show, then he can do a Shanahan and blame everyone on the way out and not look back.

Except that's kind of the rep he had when he was fired from Oakland in 2012. His rep was pretty much trash after that but he worked really hard to be in a position to be considered for a HC job and, IMHO, could have had his choice of decent jobs. Glad he's not in the NFC East.

I think it's a dumb move on his part but really wish him success.

Happen once before his Dad and George Young did the same thing(in the 80's) with a LBers coach his name was Parcells.

I think I've heard of that Parcells guy. Nobody around here knew anything about that Joe Gibbs fella when he was hired, either.

With this move, plus keeping the DC, it seems like the G-Men may be able to minimize the disruption of starting over. It could be a good move.

Observing from afar, it just seemed to me that Coughlin didn't have the same energy as before.

Yeah, however, the guy they "forced out" was Ray Perkins who went 24-34, was in his first HC job, had one winning season, and resigned to take the HC job at Alabama - his alma mater. Parcells was promoted but would have been fired after his first year if Howard Schnellenberger had accepted the Giants offer but he refused.

Slightly different than shoving a two-time Superbowl winner with a long HC resume out the door and keeping an OC in place so your franchise QB doesn't throw a hissy fit.

Not saying it wasn't time for TC to go - just saying McAdoo's hiring not exactly comparable to Parcells.
