Saban to Cleveland isn't likely

Cleveland needs to stand pat and keep building, they have an up and coming team. Add some receiving options, and depth along the lines, and they're competing.

And Shurmur is doing a pretty darn good job

Agreed, and why would any pro team want this cockroach?

Nick had his shot. Thanks for playing.

Well,we all know what firm assurances from Nick Saban on how he's not considering anothere job a worth.

I think Michael Lombardi wants to be GM of Cleveland, and NFL Network airing reports on that 'special' group that made up the staff of the last Browns team before they left (which included Lombardi and Saban) is some propaganda to generate interest. But the reality is that Shurmur has turned the Browns into a team that nobody really wants to play (you're supposed to just blow them away, but they are now turning into very tough opponent, especially at home). Anybody paying attention wil take advantage of that and let this team grow. They don't need to be blown up and started over.

I agree, after they draft two or three more QBs they will be contenders

Yup... He hasn't done a thing to lose his job. This thing is on the uptick.

It wasn't fair to leave Miami, either, as Saban pointed out right before he left Miami.

Great story. And a footnote: Saban is also not likely to be nominated for Secretary of State.

Nickspin.

Well put. And, no matter what Saban says........I don't believe him. If his lips are moving he's lying.

Mike Lombardi to Cleveland...

I guess that's the only Lombardi that will ever be in the Browns front office

Saban to the dumpster

Saban is a college coach. The NFL doesn't suit his style of coaching. He'll stay at Bama, where he can be king.

Could care less if Shurmer stays and the head coaches change, HOWEVER, hiring Lombardi would be a HUGE MISTAKE....Heckert has ton one hell of a job, nearly every pick the guy made ha panned out even the later ones. This is how you build a great team. Why change and roll the dice on Lombardi when the GM in place is doing fantastic?? Kinda like when they get rid of Mangini along with the special teams coach, then in ONE year Cleveland went from having the best special teams in the NFL to one of the worst. Never understood why these guys can't keep personnel when they are doing a good job.
