I hate the derogatory references to BB's tenure in Cleveland. Granted it wasn't
his finest hour but suffice it to say his success there wasn't chopped liver either.
Stop being an apologizing homer, his record is his record. My math isn't good but he was 36 wins out of 80 games.
Maybe he need some seasoning, look at the polished & friendly person he has become. I bet when he left the NY writers were saying that he should have stayed with Parcells for a couple more years to gain 'seasoning', and I am sure they chuckled when he had four losing seasons out of five. BB took advantage of his stature as a very good coordinator and turned it into a HC position (just like Mangini).
It didn't work out, he re-grouped and then was able to pick the better of two positions once he re-established himself. When Mangini gets fired he will have to do the same thing, become a head coach in college or a coordinator for Josh McDaniel. Either way in 5 years he will get another shot at an NFL job.
