Why is Holmgren getting cozy with Cleveland

[GimmeTheBall!]

I read and heard that Holmgren has visited with the Cleveland Browns.

This could be read two ways:

Coach mustache is desperate for a HC job
Or
He wants to get Jerra salivating after him.

As for me, I can only hope that Holgren eventually goes to Cleveland (or as we say in the movie "Stranger Than Paradise," Cliv-land). I mean, who wouldn't want to take over a lousy team in a lousy city; a team headed by a lousy owner. That instead of warm Texas with a good team and a $1 billion palace.


or maybe Jerra has already told Holmgren to keep on walking.ray:



Shanny, keep your phone lines open!!!!!

Cleveland is a very good franchise with great fans and tradition....and of course he could be his own man there instead of playing with one hand behind his back here. It seems like a decent fit.

Considering the Browns are talking to him about running their entire football operations and not coaching should answer the question.

Holmgren by most accounts is looking for a GM role.Cleveland has an opening for a GM as well as Seattle. I think he goes back to Seattle.

Burn on big river burn on......

quick who sang that about cleveland?

oh and the people that own the browns have a fascination with the 80s niners west coast tree and the parcells tree.

I think its time they .....branch out...if you will with a new thought process.

I respect Holmgren, but don;t wan't him.
I would like to see a young up & comer.

 

[coblue]

If Holmgren becomes their Head of Football Operations, wouldn't the obvious coach be for Gruden to get out of ESPN and coach for his buddy in his town?

 

[Asklesko]

Holmgren would be a good fit in Cleveland. He's husky, just like Manginus.

 

[hawklegion]

Every coach wants to come here.
