Spurned by Kelly, Browns to restart coaching search

TEAMS: Cleveland Browns
One day you're hot, the next you're not. The Cleveland Browns have shifted their focus and are moving on from onetime favorite, Oregon’s Chip Kelly. Kelly, after his first meeting with the Browns, made his next stop with the Philadelphia Eagles, who are also interested and rumored to have had a marathon 9 hour meeting. Reports on Saturday had Kelly pretty much a done deal in Cleveland, but Kelly left without an agreement.

  • The Browns look like losers right now, but in the long run they will be better off without Kelly. His offense will be as successful as the wild-cat. He'd go through 4 QBs a year running his offense.

Colt McCoy Has Been Told He’s in Chip Kelly’s Plans if He is Hired

Via BlackSportsOnline  |  January 05, 2013
Chip Kelly hasn’t been hired by anyone yet, so this might not mean anything. Even before this report came out, I believed if Chip Kelly was hired by the Browns and he had to choose between McCoy and Weeden, he would choose McCoy. I think McCoy fits better within the scheme he would try to use. It would be different if Weeden was substantially better than McCoy, but I don’t think...
