Ohhthepain Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 Damn. Great hire but surprising. I assumed with Kitchens as the HC he would still be calling the plays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just seems like the idea was to have the Kitchens system which was working the later part of the year. I would think Monken a bit more established than they were looking for. I suppose they are looking to try and give Kitchens the ability to be a HC and not have his prints on the offense. Just seemed other than I took his promotion.

I think there was probably a lot of discussion about Williams vs Kitchens. Id say the continuity for Baker was at the forefront of any decisions. Tough stuff actually. I[m not sure why they couldn't just keep the staff as they had it. I can't see Kitchens having a real issue with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larz Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 Monken is a very good OC but as others have mentioned is a very odd situation with the justification for kitchens being his offense So Mccarthy didn't go there because he was told he had to keep kitchens, so kitchens gets the job and hires monken Something doesn't seem to add up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kitchens relates well to Baker and Monken has a vertical offense that just needs the right qb that can read the field. There will be some influence from Kitchens offense but I think it's very smart not to unbalance Kitchens as a HC. Let him bring in an OC who has similar offensive philosophy. sh*t is about to get real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy 2 Times Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 He must've not had many offers. Will help scheme, but there's no way Kitchens is changing his system or giving up the play calling so soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
playtowinthegame Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 If I told you all last year that in a year from now the Browns will have fired Hugh Jackson, and their next head coach would be Freddie Kitchens and his offensive coordinator would be Todd Monken. Be honest. Almost all of you would be like who the heck is that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think about it kitchens doesnt have to give up playcalling, but if Monken has it under control, then maybe it's best that Kitchens can oversee things knowing his relationship with his qb. Sometimes being a good HC is knowing when to be a HC and let your OC be that. I think Monken and Kitchens together can come up with an offensive scheme that will be a joy to watch.
