Yeah, I like Vrabel, seems like a dude. That said, they are setting up a HC controversy. A lot fans hate KS when he’s winning, imagine when they are on a back to back losing streak. Should be interesting!

I dunno if it was his idea to throw 240M dollars at a suspended qb.
That was the most important decision.

Maybe they can "promote" Stefanski to a FO job, I think he may be more suited for that. Then Cleveland's son can lead us to a Superbowl.

No idea why you would quote my post with this comment. It had nothing to do with Watson! The deal is done! Let it go!

Stefanski is the only Browns coach in the last 50+ years to win coach of the year, and he's done it twice. I'm not going to throw that away very quickly. Even if he ends up in a CEO type of roll, which basically means the DC and OC are calling the plays, which is a common thing in the NFL, I'll support him for a while.
What was McDermott's excuse last year? 100% healthy o-line and a 100% healthy Josh Allen, and he had a bad slump in the middle to barely make the playoffs.
Stefanski had 1 starting o-lineman who was healthy all year, and often the back-ups even ended up on IR, let alone the 5 QB thing.
Having said all of that, I get the desire for Vrabel. A fantastic addition.
A two time coach of the year, the reigning DC of the year, and Vrable on one staff, I think we can all agree, is a wonderful thing to have.

Every Bills fan is asking the same thing.
I have yet to see anything Stefanski has done well, other than doing as he is told. And I guess that is a good quality when your organization is put together like ours is.
He was hired as an offensive coach. His offense failed spectacularly.
Now it has been redesigned and Stefanski doesn't do anything but give locker room speeches. I'm fine with it, and excited to see if maybe Schwartz does not have to keep this team afloat this season. All we need is average out of our offense.
Would I rather have Vrabel ....of course!

5 different QB's and we still went to the playoffs is pretty good coaching. Of course the offense is going to suffer and look subpar at times. And before Watson BM was up and down but KS relied on Chubb. Last year he couldn't rely on Chubb and if he had been hurt KS damn well would've been feeding him more than ever.
Anyway, KS seemed to out think himself at times or make odd play calls. It's likely the FO saw that and spoke to him about adding a new OC that KS is comfortable with. I'm just tossing shit out there cause idk for sure, but that seems like a reasonable guess.

Yes I agree, it was great coaching. Our defense and ST were spectacular.
I am not saying Stefanski can't get better. I see signs of it. But as of now I don't believe he had much at to do with our success. We have a stacked football team, we should be winning football games.

If Stefanski called it quits right now, I think 100% of the fan base would be stoked for Vrabel.

Gonna be so Browns when we let that guy walk. Only forgivable if he goes to Ohio State. *checks negativity*

Still shocked he didn’t get scooped up for a HC vacancy! He’s a dude!

Isn’t Tennessee still paying him?
I’d guess if it looks like Day survives next year you’ll see Vrable getting back in the HC NFL market

I really thought pats or raiders would have taken Vrable. Though I think the Raiders were enamored with that interim HC momentum.
