Brian in Boston 903 Posted January 3 7 hours ago, rams80 said: The Deer's almost certainly Elway. My money's on Terry Bradshaw. FOX is ALL about cross-promotion of network properties. Bradshaw will be bounced from The Masked Singer on the show's January 16th episode, just in time for Menefee, Long, Strahan, Johnson, and Glazer to yuck it up over their studio-mate's antics during the FOX NFL Sunday pre-game show for the January 20th NFC Championship Game. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Buc 999 Posted January 3 Browns gonna Brown, apparently. From ProFootball Talk: The Browns couldn’t pull off the comeback win in Baltimore on Sunday afternoon, but the second half of the 2018 season was still a big success in Cleveland. Winning five of their final eight games left the Browns with a 7-8-1 record, which is their best since 2007 and something to build on for next season. That run came after the Browns fired Hue Jackson and installed Gregg Williams as their interim head coach, so there’s been some discussion about whether Williams will get a chance to continue in the job. Williams is going to get an interview for the permanent job, but Peter King writes in Monday’s Football Morning in Americacolumn that “it doesn’t look like he’ll be a serious candidate” for the job. King adds that a defensive-minded or special teams coach could be considered if it means offensive coordinator Freddie Kitchens would stay on board, but adds that the team is expected to vet Josh McDaniels and Lincoln Riley as well. A report over the weekend indicated they have reached outto former Packers head coach Mike McCarthy and there will likely be more names bubbling up in the coming days. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crashcarson15 1,742 Posted January 3 Greggggggggggg shouldn't get the job. The lion's share of Cleveland's improvement over the last two months of the season is due to (a) not having a bumbling, incompetent fool as head coach who wouldn't stop arguing with his OC and (b) Freddie Kitchens' offense. Gregg's done a lot good during his interim tenure, but he shouldn't be the answer permanently. Now, Kitchens? That's a conversation worth having. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dfwabel 2,105 Posted January 3 (edited) I really don't see why/how any team interviews Josh McDaniels after backing out of the Colts job especially after his assistants were under contract. I get it; McDaniels grew up in Akron/Canton and went to John Carroll, but he's got severe character flaws which were exhibited in Denver and last off-season.

Also, let’s not forget that he chased off Cutler, used a first-round pick on Knowshon Moreno when Denver was overstuffed with thousand yard rushers every year, the insane Tebow pick, turning a 6-0 start into an 8-8 season, and getting caught spying. Denver was bad, but anybody can get a second chance. Backing out of Indy should have been that second chance for GM’s around the league. No way I’d hire him. 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Elway was drafted by the then Baltimore Colts and (in)famously refused to play for them. Deer also is holding a baseball trophy at one point-Elway played baseball in college and was good enough to get drafted in the 2nd round of the MLB Draft. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I honestly have no idea where they'd hold it. I'm sure Dean would propose a parade in downtown LA which would be all sorts of hilarious for the attendance reason. In reality, it'd probably end up as a parking lot/stadium rally in Carson which would also be funny in its own way again for the attendance reason. This really would be the worst time for the Chargers to actually break through and do the damn thing. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
