Next Browns Head Coach Odds

After a week of speculation, it’s now official: The Detroit Lions have hired former Saints tight ends coach/assistant head coach Dan Campbell as their next head coach. The deal is reportedly a six-year contract.

• A top assistant coach for the Green Bay Packers’ record-setting offense is getting some head-coaching interest. According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Packers offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett has a virtual interview with the Atlanta Falcons for their head-coach opening.
• The Falcons, Lions and Texans already need a head coach, and the Jaguars will likely become the next team soon. The key to Douglas’s search will be pitching the job to potential candidates.

Now is the time to start thinking about how to approach next season and if you are a Cleveland Browns fan, the 25-1 odds look like an insane deal. With an actual off-season with their young head coach and Odell Beckham returning, giving Cleveland only the 13th-best odds after the season they have had and winning a playoff game, seems ludicrous.

From the beginning of the coaching search, the Lions said they were targeting a coach with great leadership and teamwork skills who can work alongside a general manager to create a positive culture of inclusivity, awareness, and open communication. With Campbell, they believe they got their man.

If the Browns get to have their way early, then it will be the under, but I highly doubt that happens. Spread: Chiefs by 10 points Another Kansas City Chiefs game, another double digit spread.

Campbell was selected in the third round of the 1999 NFL draft by the New York Giants. He would play in the league for 11 years, including three (2006-08) with the Lions, and retired after being part of the Saints 2009-10 Super Bowl-winning team.

In 2010 he took a coaching internship position with the Miami Dolphins and was promoted to tight ends coach the next season. He remained in that role until 2015 when he took over as interim coach after Joe Philbin was fired, finishing out the final 12 games. He would go 5-7 over that period and was not retained at season’s end.

He was immediately offered several coaching opportunities, including deals from the Dallas Cowboys and Minnesota Vikings, but he took a job as a tight ends coach and assistant head coach with Saints because he wanted an opportunity to work with coach Sean Payton. Campbell played for Payton and Bill Parcells in Dallas, and because of this previous relationship, Campbell believed it provided him an opportunity to maximize his development.

Campbell has been interviewed regularly for head-coaching positions since leaving Miami, even being one of the finalists for the Colts job in 2018, but he never found a fit until Detroit came calling.

The Lions were looking for a coach with intangibles, not necessarily someone an offensive/defensive guru.

“My No. 1, core traits were, first of all, he’s got to be a leader of men,” Lions general manager Brad Holmes said when describing what he was looking for in a head coach. “He’s got to be a leader of men. He’s got to have presence and within that presence, he’s got to have poise. He has to have confidence. He has to have command. He has to have mental toughness. He has to have intelligence, and I stress the mental toughness part because there will be ups and downs where that stress tolerance has to be at the right level, and to be able to persevere through those moments.”

While Campbell has never been a coordinator, he checks all the boxes Holmes listed above. Campbell is known as a motivator with strong leadership skills. Someone that players want to play for, while also respecting what he has to say because he was once in their shoes.

“He’s a guy who played a long time,” Saints QB Drew Brees told ESPN’s Mike Triplett. “So he’s got a level of respect coming from guys for how he played — he’s a tough, physical guy. He just really cares about his players. You can see that in the way he talks to us, talks to his position group. He’s just got a lot of great leadership qualities in that way. And I think he’s just a good person.

“So you combine all those things, and then he’s a person that you want to follow. And a person you believe in and you know he’s gonna be honest with you.”

Saints left tackle Terron Armstead also spoke highly of Campbell.

“He got it, man. He got it. Everybody here would do whatever for that guy,” Armstead said. “Being so relatable, having done it for so long, just has a great connection with the younger players. I’ve never seen him badmouth anybody, more talking up to you. Even when they mess up, he’s gonna talk up to them. And you just want to play for somebody like that.

“You want to run through a brick wall for him. I would.”

The Lions want to change their culture, and with Campbell, they will get an opportunity to do that.

It sounds like Christopher Johnson is putting all his faith in Joe Douglas to shape the future of the Jets.

The general manager will run the search for the next head coach, according to The Athletic’s Connor Hughes, after the team fired Adam Gase on Sunday night. Johnson will have the final say in the hire, according to ESPN’s Rich Cimini, and team president Hymie Elhai will assist in the search, but it appears that Douglas’ football acumen will carry the most weight.

This is unequivocally the correct move, and one the organization failed to make in its previous head-coaching searches. The Johnson family utilized search firms and endorsements from other big names in the league to pick the past two head coaches, neither of which worked out well.

The Jets hired former general managers Charley Casserly and Ron Wolf in 2015, who hand-picked Mike Maccagnan for the open general manager job. That led to the hiring of Todd Bowles, who went 24-40 in four seasons with the Jets. Johnson kept Maccagan after firing Bowles in 2018, and the two chose Gase after a late phone call from Peyton Manning reportedly sealed the deal. We all know how that ended.

It looks like Johnson finally learned from the franchise’s past mistakes. Douglas, who has vast experience in two of the most successful franchises in recent memory – the Eagles and the Ravens – will spearhead the search for his coach for potentially the next four years. He’ll have a lot of talented people to choose from at the professional and collegiate ranks, including Chiefs OC Eric Bieniemy, Colts DC Matt Eberflus, Ravens DC Wink Martindale, Titans OC Arthur Smith, Iowa State’s Matt Campbell and others, according to NFL Network.

Douglas will likely cast a wide net for the next head coach, though, and should take his time to find Gase’s replacement considering how he’s built the team heading into 2021. Douglas doesn’t have any experience picking coaches – he was a talent evaluator in Baltimore, Chicago and Philadelphia – but he’s likely made a lot of great connections over his long career in the league.

There are a couple of great candidates with ties to Douglas, but the Jets aren’t the only team on the hunt for a new head coach. The Falcons, Lions and Texans already need a head coach, and the Jaguars will likely become the next team soon.

The key to Douglas’s search will be pitching the job to potential candidates. Fortunately, Douglas set the team up for future success with a couple of savvy moves this past offseason. Not only do the Jets possess the second overall pick in this year’s draft, but they’ll also have six picks in the first 100 selections in 2021, four in the first three rounds in 2022 and more than $72 million in cap space this offseason. That’s an enviable job for a potential hire.

Whomever Douglas picks will have a connection to the GM the past three head coach never had. Gase, Bowles and Rex Ryan were all arranged marriages with their respective general managers. Only Ryan enjoyed relative success, and that lasted just two seasons. That won’t be the case this time. While Johnson will still have some level of say in the hiring, Douglas should still lead the search and should effectively make the final call after all the vetting and interviews.

This is an important step for the Jets. It shows the team is willing to break from its old mold to build a better franchise. It also shows Johnson trusts Douglas and understands his vision in spite of the Jets’ 9-22 record under the GM’s direction. There were a lot of mistakes made by the previous regimes of Maccagnan and John Idzik, and Douglas has tried hard to dismantle what they did the past two offseasons with frugal offseason spending and shedding players with bad contracts or trading them acquire draft capital.

Douglas could alter the course of the organization with this hire, and it only makes sense he should be the one to find the right coach to usher in the new era and work hand-in-hand to deliver the plan he’s set in motion. This coach will play a crucial role in developing the Jets’ young talent, which very well may include a quarterback at the top of the first round.
