Mark O Posted January 13, 2016 Report Share Posted January 13, 2016 i would have to say you are correct, however we still need a good gm to get him some good players, like a really good qb for instance... we just need so much still., but looking back at the past 3 hires, he would be the best. But i still need to see what his direction is before proclaiming him the turnaround man. I like to see results and he has yet to step on the field... The direction is the analytical one. The only way this isn't a good hire is if he isn't on board with the analytical side of the business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbedward Posted January 13, 2016 Report Share Posted January 13, 2016 OMFG... it has started already... "I don't care who they bring into this dumpster fire" "I can't get excited about the Browns anymore" Then we get a new coach and everyone's excited again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tour2ma Posted January 13, 2016 Report Share Posted January 13, 2016 Seems like there's a little more optimism on the board with this hire. It feels better than the last couple, that's for sure. From the get-go? Yes, but you have to remember we were Googling out last two, new HCs for a day just to find out WTF they were... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canton Dawg Posted January 13, 2016 Report Share Posted January 13, 2016 Who cares about mccarron. If the Bengals were willing to trade him in the division then we should stay away anyway. I'm hearing that Hue likes Jared Goff, saying that Andy Dalton played in a similar college offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canton Mike Posted January 13, 2016 Report Share Posted January 13, 2016 Forget McCarron- the Bengals won't let him go short of a King's Ransom. LOL, "Cleveland, this is your Captain Hue- prepare for Take Goff". Love it!! Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gipper Posted January 13, 2016 Report Share Posted January 13, 2016 So....the Browns have take HUGE ACTION figure by hiring Hue Jackson He was not my favorite for the job. It was just a gut feeling on my part. Maybe it is a good sign for him that I didn't want him. More power to him. I hope that the huge action that he is is a Transformer......Transform this losing team to a championship level team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mudfly Posted January 14, 2016 Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 Ok....that went fairly well.....liked what I heard(which I figured I would)......he seems reasonable enough. The 3 things I liked best were: 1) He has a 147 text messages from "great coaches" who want to join his staff..(hope this is true, cause we need em) 2) He likes a challenge....which is what I wanted.....a guy who has the balls to tackle tough tasks....(even when he has the option to take an easier path) 3) He believes you need integrity...accountability.....and a strong work ethic to be on this team....(so JFF is out for sure).... So....those who think "just talent" is all you need.....we have another coach who disagrees.....yay! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kvoethe Posted January 14, 2016 Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 Meh, another year another coach. Ill comment next year after 5 games. C'mon, its not like we havent done this so many times. Ill get excited when I see improvement. I listened to the presser and there was way too much talk about DEE. Seems like a good guy, hope it works out for him. Marv Lewis had some great things to say about him when he lost him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mudfly Posted January 14, 2016 Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 I listened to the presser and there was way too much talk about DEE. Yeah....that one question they were asked and then answered was way WAY outta line......shoulda just said no Dee questions allowed.... Though, NOW that she was mentioned......Im fairly certain she will be the new GM..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaconHound Posted January 14, 2016 Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 I like what I heard from Hue and again hoping he does the job we so desperately want him to. The broken record from me, the Cleveland Browns need more talent and until they get better players I don't see success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calfoxwc Posted January 14, 2016 Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 Saw where Bengals players love the guy, saw a video clip of Tom Brady laughing and talking with Hue when he was the Raider's coach. The Browns have finally gotten themselves a blue chippie HC, that is respected around the league, Huegly ! HIP HIP HUE-RAH ! GLORY, GLORY HaleHUEia !!! Brilliant, classy, driven players coach who also is a displinarian, creative on offense, and uses his players to bring out the best in their abilities. What a wonderful breath of fresh football air in Brownstown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike H Posted January 14, 2016 Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 WCO does at least give Flip a shot and the 4-3 might put Schwartz in the running for the DC. Most important question is do they have the same agent? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tour2ma Posted January 14, 2016 Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 Presser Notes General Impressions: - Hue has "presence"; can sense a fire below the surface, yet comes across very warm... unusual combo... (contrast with Jimmah where fire is obvious, but warmth not so much..) - great, relaxed command of the stage... sense of ease... liked the flashes of humor... especially those directed at, or at least involving, the Big Boss... - Love to know the story behind that right-eye scar... - Needs a new tailor... Hue's Comments: - the volume of good to great coaches texting him to get interviewed... sweet... - surprised he did not seem more into the ScoutMaster search; seemed to be barely interested let alone excited by the opportunity... odd... - deftly side-stepped any player evaluation probes... - reasonable summary of success recipe near end... - shocked that he could impress after a nite game, no sleep and a morning interview with another team. Jimmah's: - Alignment? Benchmarked sports orgs and the thing he came away with was how important it was to align? Jesus... that's Org Dev 101 shit. Here's a heads up JH... alignment is not a one-off, check-the-box thing... Be ready this time to assess and address. Sashi: - a tad nerdy, but decent first impression Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gumby73 Posted January 14, 2016 Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 2 presser highlights with media.. #1. At 21:00 when Pat Mcmanass asked "That JM was never discussed during interview process" Hue slammed it down his throat with "You never heard that from me & I Never Said That" Pat was never heard from again #2. The 1 lady you were very polite 2 to get her question in cause she was trying so hard to get in is Mary Kay Cabot. You will learn MKC throat is always wide open so feel free to slam it down hers anytime you like .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
