Today is Thursday. The Cleveland Browns fired Freddie Kitchens after one year at the helm as head coach earlier this week. On this day, they interview their first candidate to replace him. And that would be the most veteran name on the open market right now: former Green Bay Packers head coach Mike McCarthy.
Between 2006 and 2018, McCarthy led the Packers to a 125-77-2 record, an overall winning percentage of .618. Granted, they went 13-3 and are enjoying a postseason bye in their first year without him. Nevertheless, he has a lengthy and positive resume that includes a 10-8 postseason record, including a Super Bowl XLV victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers.
