You think he's kicking himself in the arse?

How did Hue have the keys to the Cadillac here?  He and Marvin cooked up a plan for him to take over in 2 years and Mike Brown said "No."  Also, as bad as the Browns are I'm not sure being under the thumb of the least successful GM and owner in the NFL is really the "Cadillac" of HC jobs.

Basically, I think we're overestimating how awesome working for Mike Brown is.  Also, Mike Brown said no to Hue being the HC here, so that makes it hard to see this line of succession we're pushing as a guarantee.  So is Hue really kicking himself in the ass for being the HC of an 0-16 team when he could be the OC of a 6(?) win team?  Maybe.  I can't imagine he'd be kicking himself too hard if he is.

Kessler has a 92.6 QB rating with 6 TDs and 2 INTs and surpassed 200 passing yards in 4 of his 8 starts. RG3 has a 58.5 QB rating 0 TDs, 2 INTs, and hasn't topped 200 passing yards in his 3 starts.

Kessler already has 2 concussions in 8 starts.  He's a rookie who isn't ready for action and tossing him into the fire has led to 0 wins, it will hamper his development, and QBs who aren't prepared to run and NFL offense are at greater risk of getting killed out there.  I don't get it...we rag on the Browns for failing to find a QB and they find one that has SOME promise and we rag on them for not throwing him into early brain damage rather than maybe developing him a bit.
