    Pettine interviewing for the Browns HC

    It would suck if we lost him after only one year!

    The only way he gets the job is if nobody else wants it. There are many other more established coordinators or college HC's out there. I'm sure people isn't lining up to work for the Browns though.

        Yeah, who would want a job as a HC in the NFL, they are a dime a dozen.

            You see many times with highly sought after coaches who turn down HC opportunities with crappy ran franchises. They would rather wait another year for a better opportunity and situation. It wouldn't be the first time. All you need to do is look at the Bills for the evidence.

            Coaches that doesn't have people knocking down the door will take a HC job the first chance they get. Other coaches that many teams are after and want to speak to will many times wait until the right team comes along instead of accepting the job with a franchise with a long history of blunders and quick coaching changes like the Browns. Hell even candidates they already interviewed were calling their recently fired coach and asking them about the organization.

            There is a reason why they are the only team left without hiring a HC yet. It's either because they are waiting for one of the playoff teams to lose to get their coach, they didn't like any other candidates they interviewed or the ones they did just didn't want their job.

              Pettine seems much smarter, better organized and more decisive than Marrone. It would suck to lose him.

                Hopefully the Browns are just doing busy work until their target is eliminated.

                  This team needs some consistency. Highest sacking defense in the league in one year. I was hoping to see what Pettine could over in the next two seasons. It will suck for the team if he moves on.

                      Pettine leaving would be a huge blow to morale on the Bills defense,And another reason for Byrd to hold out.

                        I interviewed for the Browns job too, passed Lombardi a napkin when he got Big Mac on his tie. You can too, just fax them your resume. Only one person will be so dumb to take it, and it won't be Pettine, won't be me either, I passed Lombardi the McDonald's napkin not the silk Browns logo one. Buzzers went off and lights flashed, Banner validated my parking and said "was the napkin, sorry".

                          If people were jumping for the Browns job then it would be filled by now. Their owner has accusations of shady business practices outside of football, their ownership and front office is a mess and they have proven to be a mess for years now. They haven't proven they have their crap together to turn it around anytime soon either.

                          Whoever takes the job won't be their top several choices and will be somebody that is happy just to get the opportunity. Kind of like when we hired Chan Gailey. He was just happy somebody offered him another job. Pettine hasn't had any other interviews this season so that shows they are starting down the B and C list of candidates now. If he happens to be offered the job and accepts it then good for him and good luck for him.

                          Somebody who knows they can find a better organization and will get another shot will wait until next year and see what openings are available then. Somebody who is afraid they may not get another chance anytime soon will take the Browns job. They are kind of like the Raiders with HC's and there is a reason they keep getting a bunch of nobodies that end up getting fired every 1-3 years at the most.
