Gives fans hope.

Give Heckert 2 more seasons. People will be surprised on the product the Browns put on the field.

And other than NY, no other town is as critical of their sports teams management.

most comments surprise me… NOT enough media criticism in Cleveland sports of team management.

Let me ask.. final control on roster:

Jake Delhomme
Colt McCoy (never getting a chance to compete)
Seneca Wallace

Get real… THAT position is the most important and he had control on it?

Thats enough to fire him”

He has assembled an incredible amount of players that are still playing on the roster. He’s something like 25 of 27 drafting players that are currently contributors. 15 of them are starters!

I’m seeing a power vaccum in our future and I don’t think Laurie wants to hire a coach who will demand full control. It’d be nice to have a voice to balance out Roseman.

ps Every thumbs own I receive from a Browns fan gives my statement more credence

Why break up a group that is showing improvement and trending upwards?

The Browns have a new owner. He has every right to establish the power priority as he wishes it to be.
Sounds like it’s up to Heckert to make the adjustment.

He should get to stay based purely on the genius pick of Josh Gordon.
