Brian Daboll hired as OC, per Mort/ESPN

Why is this very bad? Chud can eat my crap dust for all I care.

Yikes,

Just Some info on him i found,

Daboll began his NFL coaching career with the New England Patriots as a defensive coaching assistant in 2000 before being promoted to wide receivers coach for the Patriots in 2002. After the 2006 season, he left the Patriots to serve as the Jets' quarterbacks coach. In 2009, Daboll joined Eric Mangini's staff in Cleveland as offensive coordinator.

Yeah, it’s not like Chudzinski did better with the same organization or anything like that… oh, wait.

I don't think we should be trying to model after the Browns in any way/shape/form.

Wow! This is fantastic! Cleveland's offense was ROCKIN'! I am so pumped.

Daboll's offenses at Cleveland the past two seasons were ranked as high as 32nd and 29th in the nation! Only 15 and 8 slots, respectively, behind the Dolphins offense the past two seasons! That is SO Great! BRILLIANT Hire! And that 3 slot improvement from 32nd to 29th (especially with having to deal with Peyton Hillis on your team) - what can you say?

Awesome. Just awesome.

Upgrade!

I smell interim Head Coach Mike Nolan by Week 8. Our offense will be about as exciting as a big night of shuffleboard and bingo at the senior center.

Curse of Henning.

So much for going out and getting a well known, big name to bring in and improve our offense. :lol:

I don't know much about the guy, or any of our candidates really. I just hope we get some logical playcalling, and have someone now that is going to use players in positions to best help them succeed, instead of trying to force square pegs into round holes.

Well Teflon has been spot on in his coaching choices to date no? Granted Daboll was playing with half a deck in Cleveland, but what exactly has he done to make Tony think he can do better here?

Well his offense sucked but he's a Northeast guy that likes to fist pump....

The only thing that could make this any more ridiculous/bizarre is if Henning is now hired as OC of the Browns....

The Mangini/Daboll situation mirrors our situation other than we don't have anyone like Holmgren that is smart enough to also get rid of the HC as well. Sparano and Ireland were told that status quo wouldn't be acceptable....... guess they weren't listening.

Well, Mort isn't batting a 1000 on recent reports, so I will wait to hear something official.

What was the browns standing in scoring ?

Good News: He worked with Belichick for many years. Bad News: He was the Browns OC last year, which had a worse offense than Miami . Less yards, less points than Miami.

Some reports say QB Coach instead of OC, which might be better.

Could be another reason we talked to Mangini. To get some info on him.

I'll take the wait and see approach. The Browns didn't have a lot to work with on offense.

That was a mistake by Schefter, which he immediately corrected.

Brian Daboll is the OC, not the QB coach.

Immediately below us.

Well, before I bleed out, can anyone enlighten me as to the type of offense this guy runs and his eijwoeirjwerhewr...

Not sure what to think. The Browns offense sucked, but they did have Jake Delhomme starting for half the season and a rookie starting for the other half. I think they had 3 different starting QBs this year. Are we all going to act like Peyton Hillis didn't tear it up this year?

I think Miami has a bit more talent then Cleveland as of now and if we can get some more solid players on offense, this may not be a terrible hire. Anything can be better than Henning, right? Henning turned us from a top 15-20 offense to the 31st ranked offense almost single handedly imo.

Thanks missed it

Mike Mularky=idiot w/ us and Suckpepper/Joey Harrington

Mike Mularky=genius w/ Matt Ryan

All depends on the QB!! Even Henning's system worked in '08 w/ a competent QB and o-line!

Well this sucks! I know the Browns almost aswell as I know the Dolphins.

Until we played a team with a legit defense.

Don't get me wrong, not exactly buzzing w/ excitement over this choice, but I'm keeping an open mind.
