1. As much as I have harped on lack of continuity as the Browns’ biggest issue since 1999, I have no problem with coach Hue Jackson replacing defensive coordinator Ray Horton with Gregg Williams.
2. While the organization hasn’t gone without a head coaching or coordinator change since the 2009 season ended, weak staff hires have been a continuing issue since the franchise’s rebirth.
3. Former Browns coach Bill Belichick set the standard with a staff that in 1993 included Nick Saban (now at Alabama), Kirk Ferentz (Iowa), John Mitchell (Steelers) and Scott O’Brien (retired from Patriots).
