It's inevitable that O'Brien leaves. If not this year, then next year.

 

depends on how they do. if they keep playing surprisingly well then he'll continue to draw interest from nfl teams. if they stink, as they very well might, then nfl teams might cross him off their lists. plus he could probably stay at psu for a long time and make a lot of money; it doesn't make much sense for him to leave psu just to get a foot in the door with some garbage franchise like jacksonville.

All of that is true, I just think that his aspiration is to be an NFL HC, and the right job will come along for him before the sanctions are lifted

Rapoport is saying the Browns will hire Chip Kelly.

Why would he want to go to Cleveland?

I didn't watch a lot of their games this year but they weren't that bad.

Yeah, they've got a decent amount of talent and now an owner serious about doing what it takes to win. It's not one of the better jobs out there, but it has the potential to be.

And, he's probably going to get a ton of control and oodles of money.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

But it's [expletive] Cleveland.

[sneakypower]

i felt like Carolina was the perfect spot for Kelly; they missed a golden opportunity, imo

No, it's ok, because we're keeping the guy who's led us to not one, not two, but THREE combined victories in two years prior to being eliminated from playoff contention. Nothing to see here.

Bills take Syracuse guy. Not sure how he was a candidate. Making your team a regular at the pinstripe bowl doesn't impress

[Banedon]

Bills hire Doug Marrone. So I guess the Bears won't interview/hire him. And I guess Lovie has to find somewhere else to land.

 

I'll actually be a little sad if he doesn't end up with a job.

Perhaps he'll land back as the Bears DC? haha

Chip Kelly met with the Eagles for, basically, the entire day and night from the sound of it. He cancelled a second meeting with the Browns as a result.

 

Michael Lombardi now reporting it's Eagles, Browns, or Oregon for Kelly.

[SpongeWorthy]

Kelly staying at Oregon per multiple reports

[Mike Aller]

I hope he gets sanctioned to hell.

The Pac-12 North is going to be loaded next year.

[shnsajax]

Maybe he will want the Redskins job.

[Banedon]

Apparently Carolina is sticking with Ron Rivera.

[Smack]

I hope he gets sanctioned to hell.

 

Nike burns the city of Cleveland again.

Shefter apparently said on sportscenter that the Chargers were immediately interested in Lovie after he was fired, but wanted to hire a GM first.
