On Friday, the Browns made the three previously reported coordinator hires official:

After giving their coordinators their own announcement, it is likely that the team will make the rest of the coaching staff official by Monday.

In the official press release, Monken spoke about what he was looking for in his coaches:

“You’re always looking for coaches that never forget that we have a job for our players,” Monken said. “That’s first and foremost, and our job is to maximize our players’ measurable skill set. I always say to aspire to be the best coach they’ve ever had.”

Cleveland fans will love that Monken noted that offensive football under him and Switzer will start with running the ball:

“He was our run game coordinator, and that’s where it all starts with your ability to run the football,” Monken said. “So, he’s ready for this challenge. He’s intentional, he’s intelligent and he can teach.”

With Rutenberg, Monken notes that there are differences between his defense and what former DC Jim Schwartz ran, but enough similarities:

“He’d been in a similar system, but not the exact system because Jim (Schwartz) was unique,” Monken said. “And they can say attacking style, but then there’s attacking style, which is what they’ve done here up front. And I think that background of being a four-down attacking style, but not exact, (and) to add some things that they had done before that I thought would mesh really well with the current staff, was a big part of that. And I thought his energy, his ability to teach, his juice, I mean, it popped. It was what I was looking for.”

After a lot of special teams gaffes and struggles under former coordinator Bubba Ventrone, Browns fans are hoping Storer’s “journey” will set the team up better:

“First off, his journey – going to Cal, playing special teams little bit in the NFL, into coaching, out of coaching and into the business world, then back into coaching. Being with one of the best special teams to ever do it in Rich Bisaccia. Matt LaFleur just absolutely standing on the table for him was huge,” Monken said. “Unbelievable presentation when we interviewed him, he was more than ready. It was obvious when I got done interviewing him that we had to have him here.”

Now that they are official, how are you feeling about Monken’s 3 coordinators?
