Browns interview Jaguars offensive coordinator Grant Udinski for head coach
9 comments
I listened to a couple of his interviews, and never got the impression that he is a leader of men. Will he be aggressive and hold others accountable?
Didn’t call plays in Jacksonville, so if this is the hire it will be equally important to follow who he would bring as the OC here. He could start calling plays here, but that seems like a lot of responsibilities for an also first time head coach.
Please pay this man and his massive hog. Show Shedeur how to let his nuts hang.
Udinski is the guy. If we hire him, we will win a Super Bowl during his time here.
If we let him go elsewhere we will regret it. We need to hitch our team to the rising star and ride it.
Seems like this is the final first round interview. Hopefully this week we can get an answer.
Worth nothing however that if both Seattle and LA win, the Browns cannot give Scheelhaase or Durde a second interview until after the NFCC. The new Rooney rule requires 2 in person interviews with minority candidates. Seems like McDaniel was in person so thats 1. But Scheelhaase and Durde are the only other minority candidates of the 9, so one of them has to get a second in person interview.
If both win, the earliest we can hire a coach would more or less be the 26th, the week of the Senior Bowl
This is my pick. He’s young and smart. I think he can get the most out of mediocre QBs. But we need to be patient. Not just ownership, the fanbase too.
The browns should interview him for the newly available HC position. I know it would be weird bc of how they just fired him, but still.

If there is a god, Udinksi will be speaking Clevelandese by the draft.
