Has won a Super Bowl in each of the last 4 decades

Only team in NFL to do so. They won t be laughing long.
The article is on point.

Half measures are what have gotten us here. Another half measure can keep us in the basement. I just hope when this season is over all emotions are left at the door. If we happen to win more games this season it could really put the franchise back for years.
yea getting on John Mara is ridiculous

Listen he doesn't draft the guys, he only hires and fires the GM. He can be loyal to a fault bu you also can't hire and fire front office people/coaches on whim or you become the Browns or 49'ers. In retrospect he hung in there with Reese too long, but no one was bitching about it at this time last year. lets see how it works out going forward. Has he made mistakes? have flaws? Of course who in the league doesn't. Even Lil Bill has had the luxury of not only the best QB of the generation, but one that besides one season has been healthy.

Will prove all these moves bring this team to the Browns level maybe even below it.
According to google

It costs $3500 minimum for a skywriter.

Let's all chip in as one BBI and hire a skywriter to say "ONE YEAR OF LOUSY FOOTBALL" at the next home game.
The article comes off as douchey

but it’s fair to point out keeping Reese when Coughlin was pushed out was a mistake that’s on Mara
I tend to agree with his take

If not the way he words it.
If Mara

Truly believed McAdoo was ready to be an NFL coach -- and still justifies this belief by pointing out how they went 11-5 in McAdoo's first year -- he deserves to have his judgement questioned.
John Mara was either clueless or indifferent,,,

...to the morass that had become the Giants offensive line.

And that problem has been around for at least 5 years.

And if he was aware of the problem, he showed himself to be ineffective or helpless to do anything about it.

He should have fired himself along with Jerry Reese.
I’ll at least give John Mara credit for realizing that it was time...

to blow it up. Wellington probably would have let it continue, due to his well documented sense of loyalty and desire for continuity.
