In space no one can hear Posted December 17, 2009 Posted December 17, 2009 Rotoworld: Report: Mangini likely out if Holmgren is in Citing "numerous league executives," NFL.com's Jason La Canfora reports that the Browns' potential hiring of Mike Holmgren to run football operations would spell the end for coach Eric Mangini's one-year Cleveland stint. Holmgren is reportedly "very interested" in the position and would likely take the organization in a "new direction," hiring a coach from the same Bill Walsh/West Coast offense tree he came from. The Browns are 2-11 through 13 games under Mangini. Coaching targets for Holmgren may include Jon Gruden, Steve Mariucci, Jim Zorn, Dick Jauron, and Marty Mornhinweg. Dec. 16 - 9:59 pm et LMFAO!!

Yeah, Jim Zorn! What is HE thinking!
Flbillsfan#1 Posted December 17, 2009 Posted December 17, 2009 Yeah, Jim Zorn! What is HE thinking! Zorn? How about Jauron? This can't REALLY be Mikes thinking.
FluffHead Posted December 17, 2009 Posted December 17, 2009 I really hope they hire Jauron. That would be awesome
Astrojanitor Posted December 17, 2009 Posted December 17, 2009 I really hope they hire Jauron. That would be awesome By awesome you mean hilarious, right?
McBeane Posted December 17, 2009 Posted December 17, 2009 I really hope they hire Jauron. That would be awesome +1
FluffHead Posted December 17, 2009 Posted December 17, 2009 By awesome you mean hilarious, right? indeed
PromoTheRobot Posted December 17, 2009 Posted December 17, 2009 This is a guy we wanted as GM???? I guess that explains why he isn't interested in the Bills job. By the way, if Jauron is hired by someone else, is Ralph off the hook for the contract money he still owes limp Dick? PTR

/dev/null Posted December 17, 2009 Posted December 17, 2009 The ultimate in Irony would be if Holmgren hired Jauron and signed JP Losman as his QB, then beat the bills in 2010
PromoTheRobot Posted December 17, 2009 Posted December 17, 2009 The ultimate in Irony would be if Holmgren hired Jauron and signed JP Losman as his QB, then beat the bills in 2010 No. Irony would be doing all that stuff and going 0-16. Actually maybe that would be considered cause-and effect? PTR
UConn James Posted December 17, 2009 Posted December 17, 2009 Well, it is Cleveland. That may be the best they can attract with the state of their franchise. Like a house infested with termites, there's not too many people itching to go into this scenario. It's a !@#$ing mess. And, yes, the Bills are in a similar situation. Ralph can talk $10M all he wants, but I doubt anyone worth that will ever walk through the doors of OBD.

Total bull ****. Jauron doesn't come from the WC coaching tree. The original article cited by Rotoworld is here, and doesn't mention any names. Rather it says, "Holmgren, retired for a year and nearing the end of his football career, likely would want a fresh direction for the team and his own coach. Specifically, he is likely to reach back to his Bill Walsh/West Coast family tree for his coach, seeking someone who shares the same philosophies, terminology, vernacular and football ideology." Here is Bill Walsh's Coaching Tree and Dickface Jauron is nowhere to be found on it. Bad "reporting" by Rotoworld. Lazy, dumbazz copy and paste job with a sprinkling of names of current bodies on the street looking for work as a HC. Stoopid.
PushthePile Posted December 17, 2009 Posted December 17, 2009 I'm more worried about where Mangini might land.

Red Posted December 17, 2009 Posted December 17, 2009 Zorn? How about Jauron? This can't REALLY be Mikes thinking. That was a joke.
The Jokeman Posted December 17, 2009 Posted December 17, 2009 That was a joke. Leave that to me then.
flomoe Posted December 18, 2009 Posted December 18, 2009 I really hope they hire Jauron. That would be awesome The Bills might actually have a shot at beating Cleveland if they hire Jauron.
Thurman#1 Posted December 18, 2009 Posted December 18, 2009 It says "may" include Jauron. In other words, the writer is guessing.

If Holmgren is very interested in the job, that means he isn't hired yet. The rest of the story is BS. We already know Gruden is locked up for years to come as an analyst, and the rest of them are not exactly heavyweights. But it is a funny commentary. Of course, who can dispute what "numerous league executives" are saying? LOL
