So after firing Pat Shurmer, a coach that underachieved with basically no talent. The Cleveland Browns hired Carolina Panthers OC Rob Chudzinski. Now this may sound like a great move, but let's look at it for what it really is. In my opinion, a really bad decision.
Chudzinski did bring the Panthers offense around towards the end of last season. But unfortunately the offense looked bad again this season until the end of this season, and on more than 1 occasion the Panthers had game's won. But couldn't grind out the wins. Even with 2 physical RB's and a good offensive line. Chudzinski should take a lot of blame for that.
There's the argument that Chudzinski turned around the Browns offense in 07. He also led the Miami Hurricanes offense to a national title and a record setting season in 01. One thing to remember about those years is that he had the best talent in football on his teams while coaching at Miami. And the 1 year in Cleveland he had talented players like Jamal Lewis, Kellen Winslow, and Braylan Edwards. Talent is a luxury that Chudzinski will not have in Cleveland this season. He probably won't have that for a long time. Well, not in Cleveland.
The best part about all of this for the Browns is that if and when Chud fails, Norv Turner can be step into the HC spot. Turner who was fired will now be the OC for a team with less overall talent than he had in San Diego. Let's see hoe this all plays out, but you heard it here first folks. It was a BAD decision.
