I'll take your opinion on Browns HC candidates with a grain of salt.
You might want to re-read my comments. I did NOT say they SHOULD be given three 4-12 seasons. I said "three 4-12 seasons would suck." What I TRIED to say was that if Haslam is going all in on this new analytics/metrics system, he needs to have patience.
This team could very well take a step back next year and go 1-15. Out of fairness, he can't have a hair trigger and pull the plug on the HC. In year two, the record may still suck but they show improvement (kind of like what Lovie did in Tampa yet got fired for it). There they might be 3-13, 4-12, whatever. The third year is going to be the key, but he needs to give the coach three years. If they are 4-12 in year three, assuming with a younger/promising QB, you have to cut bait. Regardless of the "well <insert team> turned it around in one year" comments, that's not going to happen here. This will be a major overhaul. Very easy for people to twist my words.
And believe me, I've been taking your opinion with a grain of salt since the "use your next ten 1st rounder's to draft a QB until you get it right" comment.
