As John Dorsey prepares to make a critical decision he k Antworten

BEREA Kevin Zeitler Jersey , Ohio (AP) —nows may shape Cleveland’s football fortunes, the Browns general manager spends a moment every day giving himself a pep talk.And a stern warning.“Just make sure you don’t mess it up, that’s what I tell myself,” Dorsey said. “Just don’t mess this thing up.”Dorsey is in the early stages of heading his first coaching search with the Browns, who have been in a futile pursuit of a competent leader for nearly as long as they’ve been looking for a quarterback.With the Browns (3-6-1) on their bye this week, Dorsey provided some insight into a quest that will accelerate once the season is completed and conclude with Cleveland’s ninth coach since 1999.As expected, Dorsey said interim coach Gregg Williams will be one of the candidates interviewed. Dorsey has been impressed with the job that Williams, the team’s fiery defensive coordinator, has done over the past two weeks since taking over for Hue Jackson, who was fired on Oct. 29 after going just 3-36-1 in two-plus seasons.The Browns beat Atlanta 28-16 on Sunday and have split their two games under the 60-year-old Williams Joel Bitonio Color Rush Jersey , who Dorsey feels he has provided more than stability.“I’ve always been a believer of you play the game like you practice and I think these practices have been very competitive,” Dorsey said. “They’ve been very structured, they’ve been very disciplined, and guys have had some energy and that’s the difference I see. There’s been a focus on the little things which I think is important.”Williams has previous head coaching experience with Buffalo from 2001-2003. He was also the defensive coordinator in New Orleans from 2009-2011, when he guided a group that won the Super Bowl but was also embroiled in the “Bountygate” scandal that resulted in him being suspended by the NFL for one season.Besides Williams, Dorsey has been pleased with how Cleveland’s offense has played under running backs coach Freddie Kitchens, who took over play-calling duties when coordinator Todd Haley was fired the same day as Jackson. Dorsey would not speculate on Kitchens’ future with the team, but said he “has done a heck of a job.”Dorsey would not divulge who else in upper Cleveland’s management team will help him find a coach, but he was adamant the Browns will not hire an outside firm to assist, which is something owners Dee and Jimmy Haslam have done in the past.“We don’t need that https://www.brownsfanshop.com/Terrance-Mitchell-Jersey ,” he snapped.Dorsey was tight-lipped on other aspects of the search, including whether he would be willing to hire a college coach with no pro experience. However, he did outline the traits he’s seeking in a new coach.“For me personally, I would like to see a man of character,” he said. “I would like to see a man who can lead young men. I would like a man who has high football acumen. Those are the three basic things there I’m looking for.”Dorsey promised to be as publicly quiet about the search as he was earlier this year when he kept Cleveland’s No. 1 draft pick a well-guarded secret before choosing quarterback Baker Mayfield.That selection is part of why Dorsey feels Cleveland’s coaching gig is so appealing. Mayfield is showing signs of growth and along with rookie running back Nick Chubb, defensive end Myles Garrett, wide receiver Jarvis Landry and others, the Browns have a talented core of young players. The Browns also have nearly $60 million in salary cap space, a rabid fan base, 11 draft picks in 2019 and committed owners fixated on winning.“Those are exciting things for this organization moving forward Jarvis Landry Jersey ,” he said. “Anybody, once they understand that, you will see that, you know what? Cleveland is a good place to be.”NOTES: Dorsey had little to say about Jackson returning to Cincinnati as a special assistant to Bengals coach Marvin Lewis. “I wish him the best,” he said. “It was hard a couple of weeks ago.” … Dorsey would not say if he intends to interview former Arizona coach Bruce Arians, who is retired and doing TV analysis but has expressed interest in Cleveland’s opening. “I have a lot of respect for coach Arians,” Dorsey said. “Right now, we are in the process of beginning to finalize our plan. If it comes to the appropriate time and if he happens to be one of the people, you will find out.” Cleveland Browns:“Browns huddle in search for coach; Kitchens seen as favorite” (AP) - “It’s possible they’ve already found Cleveland’s ninth coach since 1999 or Dorsey and Co. could be waiting to speak with assistants on teams still in the playoffs.”“Josh McDaniels says he didn’t talk to Browns about their head coaching vacancy and will return to Patriots” (ABJ) - “New England Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels made it known Tuesday he’s staying put.”“Baker Mayfield has room to grow after historic rookie year” (ESPN) - “There are many ways to sum up the impact of Baker Mayfield’s rookie season with the Cleveland Browns. Perhaps the best comes in the words of a team captain and leader.”“The AFC North belongs to Baker and Lamar now” (WFNY) - “After midfield flag plants, gestures to opposing benches Genard Avery Color Rush Jersey , and unfiltered responses during his time at Oklahoma, the NFL persona should be no surprise.”NFL:“Injuries: Cowboys WR Beasley (ankle) misses practice” (NFL.com) - “Cole Beasley’s status for the Dallas Cowboys’ Divisional Round clash with the Los Angeles Rams is up in the air. The wide receiver did not practice on Tuesday with an ankle injury.”“Cardinals hire Kliff Kingsbury as their next head coach on a four-year contract” (CBS) - “The next coaching domino has fallen, and it’s a big one that’ll have repercussions across both the NFL and college football.”“Bruce Arians getting the band back together, Bowles to be Bucs’ defensive coordinator” (PFT) - “Arians has already assembled the key members of his staff, Albert Breer reports, and one of those will be Todd Bowles as defensive coordinator.”“The Wade Phillips Experience” (MMQB) - “You’re forgiven if you don’t think of defense when you think about the Rams’ late-November win over the Chiefs. Fourteen touchdowns and 105 points were scored that night...”
