Comments on: Perry Fewell to interview with the Browns Tuesday http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/01/10/perry-fewell-to-interview-with-the-browns-tuesday/ ProFootballTalk on NBCSports.com Sun, 19 May 2013 17:59:50 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: nygdefenserules http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/01/10/perry-fewell-to-interview-with-the-browns-tuesday/#comment-910985 Tue, 11 Jan 2011 05:37:29 +0000 http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=103084#comment-910985 I hope Fewell stays in NY for at least another season. He has a solid gameplan – he was the first DC to slow down/contain Vick this year.

Actually surprised anyone wants him after the 28 point in 7.5 minute collapse……

I think he will be a solid HC someday.

I’m frankly shocked that Harbaugh managed to yank down as much as he did, but I suppose the Niners were desperate. Who knows what the Fish were thinking.

One name I haven’t seen coming up repeatedly in these discussions is Rob Ryan. That tells me he’s very likely to remain on at DC, and that Holmgren will turn to an offensive minded coach to make it easier for them to stay on the same page.

nope. as much as I’d love to see Ryan take over for the Browns or at least stay on as DC he was pretty clear when he said firing the coaching staff would be “dumb as hell”. my guess he isn’t a fan of holmgren to say the least and knows he can get a job elsewhere.

too bad, good coach

Uh … yeah. Sorry about that. Sad to say Buffalo has been completely off my radar for years–at least until they hired Chan Gailey, a one-time OC for the Steelers. They looked better than their record when we played them this year. I respect Gailey; hope he can put them back on the map.

Incidentally, wasn’t trying to slam Fewell in ignorantly referring to him as a one-year coordinator. Tomlin was a one-year coordinator when we hired him, and I’m a total Tomlin believer. My concern is the same as Fewell’s–are they serious about considering him or just using him to satisfy the Rooney Rule?

One name I haven’t seen coming up repeatedly in these discussions is Rob Ryan. That tells me he’s very likely to remain on at DC, and that Holmgren will turn to an offensive minded coach to make it easier for them to stay on the same page.

Is she talking about Perry Fewell, who was Buffalo’s Defensive Coordinator for three and one-half years, then their Head Coach for one-half year and now the Defensive Coordinator for the Giants for one year?

Are these two not as hot as they seemed? Or did Cowher decide to stay in the studio since Coughlin’s job is safe?

You can’t blame Fewell for being concerned. It seems every team is interviewing him, and you have to wonder how many are seriously considering the one-year coordinator. As for Billick … would Holmgren be more likely to take a West Coast mini-me or a defensive guy who can complement his own offensive strengths?

@themightyraven …

Phillips hired on as DC for the Texans

They could use his ‘offensive genius’. Seriously with Carolina signing Rivera does that mean Cowher isn’t coming back? Gruden or Wade the ‘son of a bum’ Phillips could end up in cleveland yet.

And look at the job he did in creating Lollapalooza!
