Agreed. Bottom line, I think Wolfe has a place as a contributor...and right now, there seems to be no effort in getting him any touches of any kind. Especially when we're struggling...

No, but the assumption is that the Bears won't be the only team in the market looking for a HC... Plus, can you name another situation where a coordinator was run out of town to come back and be the head coach? Maybe there are examples, I just can't think of any... I love Ron and would love to have him back...but I just don't think it'll happen.

It's more damning evidence that our coaching staff is not good enough.

Oh I agree! I'm not sure he'd want the job! But, I think if he got it, he'd have this (at least D) team turned around in a year. He screams of getting the most out of little.

Great points... Again, this staff baffles the mind.

Great post!

A broken clock is right twice a day...

Count me in your minority club... I don't get why he isn't utilized. He actually may be better than some of the WR's we have!

Maybe, but you can't use that as an excuse. Numerous teams have injury issues and aren't as putrid as our D.

He'd have been just fin.e It's not like we don't need to overhaul our line anyway...

It might be with Ron...

Anderson's waiting for a real DC... All joking aside, thanks for the article. Good points...

Fanaca's playing like a beast in NY. Harris in Hester aren't... Age isn't everything. It's the individual player.

I just thought it was a botched call is all... Thanks for clarifying!

I'd love Ron all else being equal, but do you not think the bridge has been burned? My ony thought on him coming in would be that Angelo is gone...

Off to the liquor store I go! C'mon Lotto!

Agreed. If this is true, then at least we can put it off the radar. Now, who do we yearn for?

You and I are sadly on the same page. The coaches make morons look smart.

Roy Williams found a home out of the Motor City this year... I think when there's a will, there's a way... I think the hint is to Boldin.

http://www.profootballtalk.com/category/rumor-mill/ SOURCE: BROWNS PURSUING COWHER Posted by Mike Florio on November 20, 2008, 5:00 p.m. A source with knowledge of the situation tells us that the Browns have approached former Steelers coach Bill Cowher regarding the possibility of becoming the next coach in Cleveland. Per the source, the Browns are willing to give Cowher a contract worth $8 million to $9 million per year. Presumably, Cowher’s arrival would occur only if G.M. Phil Savage were fired or significantly marginalized. (Maybe Savage can go work for the Bills — or if all else fails he can root for them.) Cowher would want final say over personnel, and Cowher would want to install one or more of his former Steelers colleagues into key positions. Likely candidates, if they can finagle a path out of Pittsburgh, would be director of football operations Kevin Colbert and/or director of business operations Omar Khan. Cowher played for the Browns (i.e., Ravens) from 1980 through 1982, and he served as special teams coach in 1985 and 1986. He was moved to defensive backs coach in 1987, and he remained in that position through 1988.

I agree w/ Wilbon...

Thanks for the post! Damn shame...

It couldn't hurt... But, yeah...it would help. But it's not the entire solution. Upgrades are needed in a lot of other places too. Most maddeningly in the coaching staff...

Ha! You're a good translator! Because it all sounds like "parent-speak" from the Peanuts' cartoons to me! "Wa-wawa-wa-wa-wawawa".

I'd sure hope so... We do know a few are...but I'm not sure our fearless leader, Zombie Smith, feels embarassed. I can't tell if he even feels. Spock would be jealous of his lack of emotion.
