ballpeen Posted February 21, 2023 Report Share Posted February 21, 2023 I was wondering if that was going to happen. I have somewhat mixed emotions, but whatever. As for other assistants, it looks like we will be keeping most. It seems that Schwartz has had long enough to review and talk to the other defensive coaches to make decisions on that, but the season just ended. Lot's of new heads are bring hired, so we never know who might become free over the next several weeks as they make their coaching changes.

Korsou Dawg Posted February 21, 2023 Report Share Posted February 21, 2023 Knock on wood, but we seem to be making all the right decisions so far this off-season. We might consider lighting some candles at our local houses of worship to keep this up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you were hoping for a dismissal in the course of the season, it makes getting a good replacement that much harder. Apparently, is "highly-sought after." Makes you wonder if he would just skip teams for the same position.

Canton Dawg Posted February 22, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2023 It’s not a good look shaking up the coaching staff going into Kev’s 4th season. Its looking like Stefanski is getting a very short leash from Jimmah & DePud in 2023. Unless things get turned around this year, it’s more than likely Kevin’s last year as HC. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thus, I still wonder why it took the Browns until February 21st to finally pull the trigger on Priefer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree even if I don't agree with the philosophy. DePud is THE problem in my eyes, kind of a middle-man between Berry & Stefanski, or Berry & Haslam...probably the latter. I wish Stefanski well. Damnit we fans cannot continue to wait wait wait. Turning to a new staff in 2024 virtually guarantees more waiting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ventrone, 40, has established himself as one of the best special teams coordinators in the NFL over the past five seasons in Indianapolis, annually presiding over excellent coverage and return units while simultaneously helping players like Zach Pascal, Zaire Franklin and Isaiah Rodgers develop from special teamers into valuable contributors on offense or defense yes i would say he is a upgrade 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gumby73 Posted February 22, 2023 Report Share Posted February 22, 2023 I mean just off the top of my head, Cleveland could do no less damage than Prief giving Josh Cribbs/ Jim Leonhard/ Bubba Vetrone/ Johnson Bademosi or Zombo's greatest browns ever ST'er Tank Carder a ring.. 📞 Can you continue to hold ?

I don’t see it that way. Keep in mind coming into last season we had the entire staff in back…I believe for three seasons. That kind of continuity is rare in the NFL. I was hoping…believing actually that the familiarity would be a huge bonus coming into last season. Missing the playoffs while having Sluggish playcalling…in game collapses and namely the defense speaking out in season will be his undoing We made necessary moves…kept our offensive line coach, got rid of the defensive coordinator and special teams coaches-sorry but we could attribute loses to those two Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orion Posted February 23, 2023 Report Share Posted February 23, 2023 23 hours ago, Orion said: Can he fire DePodesta? I say this...but actually, in principal, I agree with DePo in that I'd rather be a great passing team. I mean, all ya gotta do is look at who's hovering around championship games every year. (imagine if the 49'ers had a really good QB) But I think they force-applied it this past year to a team that didn't have the QB to play the roll of Josh Allen, or Burrow, or, etc. They should've been more conservative on the 4th down plays. They should've taken points in either flavor, FG or TD. And they should've leaned on the run as much as possible. It's nice to aspire to be a certain type of offense. But you've gotta live in the moment. You've gotta do what your current cast of characters is capable of doing best. - Now, it is possible, as the Ghoul suggests, that the Haslem/DePodesta team require Stef to coach and call plays the way they want (throw and be aggressive). Or maybe it's all on Stef. ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
