Hue Jackson Despite 3-36-1 record Clevel

Hue Jackson was fired by the eight games into the 2018 season and you could make a convincing case that he deserved to be dismi sed well before then. When things reached their logical and inglorious conclusion, Jackson wasted Austin Davis Jersey little time .But despite the 3-36-1 record in Cleveland, Jackson ."Oh, yeah, I mean I think I can," Jackson told Charlotte's WFNZ 102.5 on Wednesday, via . "I mean, just because the situation in Cleveland didn't work out doesn't mean that you can't coach. There's a lot of great coaches who came before me that coached there and went on and did great things. Sometimes, the situation is different. I Joe Donovan Jersey think if people dig in and really take the time to look at the overall situation there, maybe they would understand it more."At the same time, I understand what narrative gets put out there, that's what people know. Hopefully, people will think back to the times when I've put myself in that position. I had to be doing something right. To go back and be a coordinator again or be a head coach, I do believe it's in my future. I've just got to go work through the proce s and see where it goes." Jackson finished out the 2018 season with the and when Marvin Lewis stepped down in January Ryan Glasgow Jersey he thought ."I think he's more than qualified," Lewis said at the time. "I think he's been in a couple of difficult situations, and that's tough, and it hasn't broke his way. But I think he's an excellent football coach, he's a great motivator. He's detailed. So I think he deserves an opportunity. If not here, somewhere else."Here's the thing: Before Jackson took the Browns job before the 2016 season, he was widely regarded as an innovative offensive mind who worked well with young quarterbacks. He was the offensive coordinator in 2010 and went 8-8 as the ' coach in 2011. From 2014-2015, he was on Lewis' staff as offensive coordinator, and those teams finished 10-5-1 and 12-4. But it all went sideways when he Amara Darboh Jersey took the Browns job. One win in '16, no wins in '17, and a 2-5-1 record got him fired in '18. And while Jackson's time in Cleveland was the worst stretch of losing in team history, he looks at it through a different lens."I've said this before, Luke Wilson Jersey I think during those times, it was probably some of the best coaching I did contrary to what people think, because you're always doing anything and everything you can to find a way to win," he said. "Now, whether it happens or not, that's not up to me sometimes. Again, I think I learned a lot."The Browns have gone from AFC laughingstock to playoff favorite. To the point, in fact, that they have the best odds in the division: 16-1. They're followed by the (20-1), the (40-1) and the Bengals (100-1).
