I do admire the Brown family.  But they need to get over the need to control their head coach to the degree that they don't end up with the same creativity that made Paul Brown one of the true pioneers of the game.   Lewis did the best job of straddling those positions, but he seems to be too much like them himself.

I can see the family sticking with Lewis as long as they have.  But Shula????   Sheezz

It's time for a change.  And they need to hire someone who has demonstrated an extremely high level of performing in the NFL.   I know McDaniel fizzled in Denver.  But I bet he's learned...

After watching the Patriots create a game plan that stifled a very good Pittsburgh defense and evolved as the game progressed, I'd love to hire McDaniels and see what he could do with our personnel.

Ya know, I wasn't that high on McDaniels prior, but after watching that spectacle, I'm in.
