January 13, 201610 yr Nope, I totally disagree with that. Sure, it's what most every coordinator eventually wants, but not every coordinator that's been offered a head job has accepted either because of differing circumstances...such as a team being in absolute turmoil, like the Browns are. The Browns is not as bad of a job as people think. They do have some pieces in place, plus 11 more draft picks this year. They need to get the QB situation right, and the right head coach in place. If so they can turn it around quickly IMO. I hope I am wrong though, because that just makes the division even tougher.

Yes there is some talent there, especially on the offensive line and on defense, but the ownership/management is just terrible which is why they are in the situation they find themselves.

Just because they haven't accepted them, doesn't mean they aren't better jobs.
January 13, 201610 yr Just because they haven't accepted them, doesn't mean they aren't better jobs. I guess to them they weren't?:idunno: Not at that time anyway. And remember, "better" is ALWAYS relative.
January 13, 201610 yr I think this may just show that Jackson either isn't very smart or is just desperate for an NFL head job. No one in their right mind would take this job, completely dysfunctional and it starts at the top, and until that changes nothing will change. It's a win/win for Hue. IF he goes up there and turns it around, he's the genius they needed. If he doesn't, the blame can still be on the front office and he'll get another gig down the road.

Of the last seven head coaches of the Browns that were fired, 6 have never been a head coach again in the NFL. The exception is Romeo Crennel who became head coach after being interim coach in Kansas City and then only lasted 1 full year as the head coach there.
January 13, 201610 yr Well, I was wrong. Still surprised he isn't going to wind up with the Giants, but maybe Hue knows something we don't, or maybe he looks at the Browns more of a team he can build his way, instead of constantly being compared to Tom Coughlin in NY. Thats my best guess.
January 13, 201610 yr As a Browns fan this is who I wanted to see them get. It might not work out but Jackson is the one I wanted.
January 13, 201610 yr You would give Andy up for a 3rd round pick? Do you really think they'd get more than that? I mean it is the Browns and they'd probably give us a 1 for Andy.
January 13, 201610 yr Do you really think they'd get more than that? I mean it is the Browns and they'd probably give us a 1 for Andy. More than a 3rd rounder? Yes, from probably every single team in the league, with a few obvious exceptions...

The exception is Romeo Crennel who became head coach after being interim coach in Kansas City and then only lasted 1 full year as the head coach there. I think Hue gets the benefit of doubt here. He shouldn't have been fired in Oakland and most around the league know that or at least I would hope they do. I personally think Hue will go up there and do pretty good if he can find a QB. The defense under-performed this year and the offense isn't horrible.

Yes, from probably every single team in the league, with a few obvious exceptions... Before this season a 3rd round pick probably would have been about right. However after this season, then no way I would trade him for anything less than a 1st round pick if I would even trade him at all.
