Cleveland Browns (2010 season)

[Buckrock]

According to SI's Peter King, Rams OC Pat Shurmur is the "leader in the clubhouse" for the Browns' head coaching job.
A second-year offensive coordinator, Shurmur runs the West Coast offense club president Mike Holmgren will more fully implement in 2011, and has a history of quality quarterback coaching with Sam Bradford, Donovan McNabb, Kevin Kolb. Losing Shurmur could be a blow to Bradford. The Browns will also interview Marty Mornhinweg once the Eagles' postseason is over.

Not sure who Mornhinweg is, but I always have Morningwood. I would be worried if that went away.

I would rather have Mangini then anyone they have interviewed so far, unless they have secretly interviewed john gruden

I'd rather have Mangini than Gruden but that OC for the Rams would be an interesting choice....

I had never heard of that Pat Shurmur guy until yesterday. Strangely, that makes me think he might actually be the perfect choice.

I would also like the Shurmur hire. Look at what the Rams offense did with a rookie QB and NOBODY at WR. I think he could give some life to the offense.

see any article relative to Matt Millen and his debacle as the GM of the Detroit Loins....Mornhinweg was by far the worst hire he made for a head coach....

hmmm id have to disagree there. Rod Maranelli went 0-16

He is the OC for the Eagles for a while.

Things were so bad by the time Maranelli got there, that the poor guy had no chance....Millen and his moronic coach had fucked things up so bad that there was basically nothing for him to work with.

Some guys should just stay as coordinators because that is their forte. There are other guys who are proven winners and or up and coming coordinators that deserve chances before retread coaches like Morningbreath and Wade Phillips. I mean if you want a retread go talk to Billick or Gruden for gods sake. At least they know how to win Super Bowls.

I really have never heard him before either but I had heard of his father Fritz who had an excellent football mind so you know he comes from good blood lines.

I'm encouraged that this is a deliberate process with a variety of candidates, and that Holmgren didn't just have one guy (or himself) in mind. I'm optimistic that this will be a good hire as a result.
