As an outsider its just shocking but I understand who wants to be rehabbing and going through pain for going on 5 years.
As far as people getting mad at the timing. I don't get it he wasn't injured until minicamp I think. He tried to rehab and it wasn't getting better. So he was going to play hurt for another year?
It wasn't going to get better playing on it with the possibility if injuring it worse see KD.
The guy has made 100 mil in his career its his life to live it sucks for the colts. But the way it was going even if he was playing the next couple years it was more than likely going to be injury riddled under performing seasons.

Sorry...
Here's the coach story....
As to the comments story.... this off-season, Mayfield went off on teammates and had to be pulled aside by veterans to dial it down a bit. Maybe Kitchens handled it well.... maybe not... but it got on the radar of people pretty quick.
As to comparing resume's..... Kitchen's NFL career resume simply does not compare to the three HC's you mentioned. They were far more well known than Kitchens was. Again, I'm not predicting a failure for the guy. I'm only stating he's very much an unknown quatity. If problems surface he will be on the hot seat.
yea unfortunately the browns are what everyone is talking about so there are tons of nonsense stores and clickbate on them because they get attention.
so their oline coach wasnt retained because kitchens wanted his own coaches not hue jackson holdovers. Not to mention he replaced him with a top 3 Oline coach in the NFL. Bob was scorned and said some nonsense i crap about the QB coach being the reason for the offensive turnaround. i dont fault kitchens for sticking up for himself.
so what would reich have said if his Oline coach that he fired said he was the reason the colts made the playoffs last year because of the improved oline play and was unjustly fired?
would reich stick up for himself? i hope he would.
as far as baker yelling at OBJ and landry they are on record saying they deserved it because they weren't doing what they were supposed to.
i get it everyone wants to make any story about the browns right now good, bad , justified , unjustified.

Wasn't there an uncomfortable firing of an assistant coach?
Wasn't there some questioning the handling of players and the comments they make and the things they do?
And he's a first time head coach. Never been a head coach before. He inherits a very good roster, which means if he doesn't win, and pretty much right away, right or wrong, the finger will be pointed at him. Fans will say we have the talent on the field, but what about the coaching?
Look, I'm not predicting bad things for the Browns. I think you win the AFC North. I'm just saying for me, the coaching is the big question mark. That's all. Maybe the guy proves the doubters wrong.
No and no. I only go by what he has done since being head coach.
Yes he is a first time head coach so was reich, mcvay, Peterson. That is not a reason for failure. Not all good coaches are 2nd and 3rd time retreads.

If memory serves me right, I believe the Browns went 7-8-1 last year.
Mayfield should be even better, and he was very good as a rookie. They added talent in FA and the draft. Does OBJ ring a bell?
I think this team has a double-digit win roster.
What I don't know if it has, is a double-digit win head coach. So far this off-season, I haven't been all that impressed..... Hope for Browns' fans sake that Dorsey didn't blow the HC search.....
Just sayin.....
i know kitchens is unproven. what has he done this off season that has people thinking he is going to fail? the X's and O's they have a pretty innovative staff i am not worried about that much.
as far as the culture they are building. all he does is stress having the most physical team on the field. with a focus on winning and having a selfless team. It even seems OBJ has bought in noting how he loves clearing out going deep and having 2 guys cover him while landry and Njoku work underneath.
i cant even really think of anything to nitpick the coach on so far.

Completely agree with on paper that this is a Browns team with a huge amount of potential. But we’ve seen lots of teams talked up before a season who don’t perform to standard.
In addition, in the politest way, much like teams NE have had winning culture for years, the Browns have had the inverse.
Hoping that you guys are good this year as I dislike the other teams in the AFC North, but as @jvan1973 said, need to see it before I crown
them.
i understand i do i have lived it. the browns #1 problem since 99 was picking players and talent. they had a bottom 5 roster and was drafting top 10 every year. John dorsey is the man and knows how to find real football players. now most people would say they have a top 5 roster.
problem #2 was the merry-go round of coaches. the owner let dorsey pick the coach this time and i know kitchens is unproven but i fully believe he is the guy. he knows how to lead he was the QB at alabama under gene stallings, was an assistant under nick saben and bill parcells who he talks to regularly. he knows what good coaching is and is making this team into tough physical team that is close knit. Full pads every practice except 1 so far with live hitting most days.
so while most people need to see it. i can see it coming from a mile away.

That's a throw that Brissett could never make. He lacks touch, everything is fast and hard...
you have a guy called luck if you haven't forgot. Brissett is seriously probably in the top 3 best backup QB's in the NFL. he is pretty darn good but no backup is a guy that can carry a team for long periods.
just need him to step in and give you a chance to win for a couple games. If you lose your Starter for the year you dont have a chance. the nick foles thing was a once in a century occurrence not the norm.

Browns do kind of deserve a good year and a deep playoff drive. I mean, hell, they're stacked with high round draft picks.
tell that to steelers fans they still think the browns are going 5-11 and they are walking away with the division. not this year its different

baker doing baker things i know colts have had manning and then luck. its been a long time since the browns have had a QB.

Did anyone notice practice was getting chippy before that happened. Seems this always happens when focus gets off the game.
idk if it was non contact those are the flukiest injuries can happen to anyone at anytime.

ill be interested to see how this plays out. IDK about the colts but in the past with the browns. it seems in these joint practices the team that does well in the practices doesn't do well in the game....but i digress its the preseason

Are these two watching completely different practices?
probably the browns offense vs colts defense was far away from the colts O and browns D you couldn't see both.
theme of the day Both offenses did well.

I wouldn't worry about that you actually have a good gm. That was the browns problem they couldn't find a guy to pick good players.
