Good interview. I like him more every time I listen too him talk. I really like the direction the team is heading.

Can you embed nfln stuff. I was'nt sure how if you can.

Anyhow. I would really like to pick his brain one time. It just seems like "there is a method to the madness" so to speak. Like there is purpose behind every little detail of everything he says or does.

Mangini is exactly what the browns needed.. he brings a stable system great coordinators/assistants a philosophy and a blue collar work ethic 4 key ingredients to success imo...theres really nothing not to like about him...he pretty much controls his own destiny and im glad lerner took that route instead of shying away after the davis experiment...davis was a college coach mangini is a pro and it should be the coaches job to lose not determined entirely by the GM whom in many orgs determines who plays and who gets drafted..in my mind there is big differences in the quality of the mankok regime over the past 3 regimes not to mention randy seems to be taking more an interest in whats going on..;)

I liked the one stat they threw out there. something like 9 of the last 11 Super bowl winning coaches won the super bowl with their second team.

 

EM said he liked that stat a lot. So do I.

I believe it was 9 out of the last 12.

  • Mike Shanahan (XXXII, XXXIII)
  • Dick Vermeil (XXXIV)
  • Bill Belichick (XXXVI, XXXVIII, XXXIX)
  • Jon Gruden (XXXVII)
  • Tony Dungy (XLI)
  • Tom Coughlin (XLII)
Really interesting stat, but I'm not sure what to make of it. Shanahan and Belichick, who won the majority of those 9 SB's, both spent time in the wilderness working as assistants before getting their second shots at being HC. And Vermeil & Gruden weren't even fired from their first jobs.

 

The only one who got fired, then immediately got a HC job with another team is Tony Dungy. Coughlin comes close: he was out of the league for a year between his gigs with the Jags and the Giants.

 

Another interesting stat: the three first time HC's who won Lombardi's during that span all coached in the AFC North (Billick, XXXV; Cowher, XL; Tomlin, XLIII).

Didn't Gruden go from the Raiders to the Bucs and beat that same Raiders team the year he moved over?

Yep. Gruden wanted out of Oakland, so he managed to get himself traded to Tampa for a couple of high draft picks.

 

Guys like Warren Sapp like to put down Gruden by saying that he won a championship with Dungy's players. Though, to be fair, Gruden brought some needed discipline to that team and was able to kickstart an anemic offense.

What was wrong with Romeo? ;)

 

In all seriousness, Mangini is such a breath of fresh air (after Palmer, Davis, & Crennel). I can't wait until camp.

 

Seems we finally have a professional coach with an idea how to lead a team. Thank God.

I would attempt to answer except for 2 things...

1) I don't have the time &

2) This board only has so much "memory". :rolleyes:

I've always been a Gruden guy. I wouldn't have minded him as coach here but right now I'm falling in Lumlike love with Mangini.

When Mangini was asked how the interviewer might get rid of the spaghetti stain was it me or for one moment did any of you think Mangini was gonna say "I'll ask your wife next time I'm screwing her". You know what I mean, he looked like he could have punched the guy in the throat.

 

Eric performed that interview in a very interesting way, it felt natural but I'm almost sure none of it was. I would not like to play poker with him.
