Curious who Browns fans are wanting. Seeing a lot of stuff on social media about Deion, which seems like a BIG stretch.

Somehow stefanski is the best coach available and the browns are the worst job available.

I saw that and thought it just can’t be true.

But, wow, that would be such an amazing story.  I mean, you kind of already knew that Sheduer is going to be QB1 next year....

Isn’t his health terrible? Like he shouldn’t even be coaching Colorado?

While I'd LOVE to laugh for ages about how hiring Deion would be pure "THAT'S SO BROWNS!!!" entertainment, there's no way I can see it happening. 


1. You'd be locked into Shedeur as QB1 for however long he was there. 

2. At the end of the day, he's a college coach with a mediocre record. Even if it's at a program where mediocre is a few steps up from where Colorado had been for ages. 

3. NFL free agency isn't exactly the transfer portal. He's not going to be able to remake the entire roster over the course of one off-season. Considering his best year at Colorado came from him dumping virtually the entire team and bringing in a ton of new guys, that's probably an important thing to note. 

4. Seems I've read a LOT about him having health problems over the past couple years. Can't imagine why an NFL team would bring in a guy if they can't reasonably count on him being there full time and I'd have to think that'd be a concern for him. 


Don't get me wrong. I can see some number of ESPN heads pushing this narrative. Some of them have spent so much time talking up Shedeur as a super-elite prospect that it's a near-guarantee that they'll be all in on ANY move that has the potential to turn their talk into reality.

Deion would be so lazy or a choice lol


Browns fans don’t need gimmicks


How about John Harbaugh?….would be interesting. Baltimore stole your team and you could steal their coach

They should offer Harbaugh everything and anything. Make him say no.

Would Haslem accept an "everything and anything" that includes: 1. Him shutting up and having nothing to do with anything involving player decisions and 2. Andrew Berry getting shipped out. Because he seems to be the sort of high-level coach who wouldn't want anything to do with the brains behind "trade the future for Watson" debacle or an owner whose interest in having a finger on things way outweighs his actual competence at doing so.

I really wish the Jets had a competent owner right now.
