Why would someone qualified want to coach the Browns instead of staying an OC on a successful team? Supposedly there was a move to make Hue the HC in a couple seasons here...but nothing ever got put in writing.
1 ) Money
2 ) There are what 32 HC jobs in the NFL? If you get offered one, you pretty much take it if you want to be a HC>
3 ) The Browns have resources - high draft picks, salary cap space. While they are terrible every year, I could see a good football mind thinking he could go there and sort the mess out. Of course, many a coach has failed to do that.
That franchise will eventually turn it around.
4) We're Bengal fans. We see coaching the Bengals as a great opportunity. Hue would still have to work for Mike Brown who controls a franchise more than other owners. The Bengals are frugal in free agency, etc. While we have made the playoff 5 out of the past 6 years...our core is ageing. By the time Hue actually got to take over for Marvin, the roster might have been degraded through attrition.
