This would lead to the browns being better than at least half of the teams in the league

I'm still trying to grasp how a grown adult baby is going to handle strong personalities like Baker, OBJ and Landry. The Browns deserve everything that happens to them. Move them to St. Louis

"Impeach" means "to accuse," not to remove. Articles of impeachment have already passed. He just hasn't had his trial yet.

I know this is a joke but it actually sounds like a great deal for Garrett. If Jerry always gives him another year then why not just keep taking it? It's not like he's a running back who will be legally dead by 28.

The Packers had the cap guy, the GM, *and* McCarthy all report equally to Murphy. It was dumb.

I think that structure went away after McCarthy was fired, now LaFleur reports to Gutekunst. Not sure about Ball though.

Wasn't he part owner of the Steelers before buying the Browns? Perhaps in his mind he conflates some of their success with himself.

Yep he was brought up in the ways of NFL ownership by the Rooney's.

It's kinda funny cause the previous owner was renowned for not being involved enough to the point where he didn't even attend NFL meetings.

There's nothing wrong with the coach and GM being peers, and plenty of good teams are run that way. Org charts only matter if it's important to be able to pull rank, and if that's the only way your coach and GM can work together, things are already hosed up. Honestly, if there's going to be a hierarchy, it makes a lot more sense for the coach to be in charge than the GM; the coach's vision for the team is deeper and more important than the GM's, and they understand more what the team needs in terms of personnel.

Your lovely teams are lovely because the owners suck and make terrible decisions, not because of the org chart.

It can work, but the problem with the GM and HC being equals is that it requires an involved owner who can make smart football decisions. There are not many owners like this. Clearly Haslam isn't one, despite what he may think. I believe in general it's better for the owner to delegate his power to another person who is well versed in football and stay relatively hands off. Whether that designated person is a GM, a HC or a "President of Operations" type is irrelevant.

I think there could be a movement in the next decade to usurp power from the GM and give it to the HC. It certainly seems to be the way many new hires are trending (Gruden, BoB, etc) and the most successful team of the last two decades had this configuration.

traditionally he takes football advice from the homeless so maybe slip a wino $50 to yell “sell the team” at him

Also seems weird to say that immediately when you got rid of Dorsey specifically to make the HC position more enticing.
