Browns owner Jimmy Haslam won’t have to worry about firing his next CEO, because he won’t be hiring another CEO.

 

Instead, coach Mike Pettine will have control over determining the game-day roster and utilizing the players, and G.M. Ray Farmer will be responsible for setting the table with the 53-man roster.

 

As a practical matter, that Haslam will be more involved, because he’s now essentially the CEO. Haslam said he’s “used to” that type of a structure.

 

But Haslam then refused to answer questions about the current Pilot Flying J situation, even though he opened the door by talking about his past experiences in managing key employees, by holding them accountable.

 

Haslam bristled at questions regarding coaching candidates who didn’t seem to be interested in the coaching job that went to Mike Pettine, and Haslam sidestepped questions about Lombardi’s competency.

 

The owner repeatedly said the team isn’t dysfunctional, and he blamed the perception that the Browns are dysfunctional on the local media.

Can't tell you how excited I am as a Browns fan to finally be done with Lombardi and Banner and moving on to Farmer.

 

Please expand on that? Specially Lombardi?

Mainly the fact that I don't think he is a good evaluator of talent.. has played a hand in screwing up many drafts (not just for the Browns). I feel like he is very smug and thinks that he is right about everything no matter what it is. Also, the fact that he was never there at press conferences or available to the media while with the Browns this past year. I don't want a GM or anyone high up for a team I like that is scared to face backlash or questions for his decisions with the team.
