Yes, that was correct, but ESPN is now reporting that he did indeed accept the job with the Bucs.I read Bowles is considering the DC job in Chicago.

Yep, ESPN now reporting they flipped and are now hiring Kitchens.Looks like its Freddie Kitchens for the Browns.
It seems the Browns flipped their choice as ESPN is now reporting that they hired Kitchens and the announcement is today.Not sure where the stefanski hold up is... I've seen kitchens everywhere
it was a very poor hiring cycle and that trend will continue with all these retreads. The NFL has a very poor mentality in not promoting and urging teams to hire young progressive coaches.I'm on record as not really liking the potential candidates out there today. I said that before we fired Gase, and I stick to it today. Of the guys with jobs and whom we've hired, I don't really care for many of them honestly. My top two picks were Bruce Arians who took the Tampa Bay job, and Vic Fangio who took the Denver Broncos job.
We didn't interview some other really good DC's like Eberflus with the Colts, who has really maximized that team's talent; and Wink Martindale with the Ravens, who has taken a talented Ravens defense and really had them playing at the top of their game. I would prefer a bright young OC, and yes, I am looking for the next Sean McVay. But, good defensive coaches can sometimes produce good offenses too, and offenses tend to be the dominant teams these days. My best example is Bill Belichick, and the candidate who most resembled him among these candidates was Vic Fangio. Sure, there are others with booming commanding voices and take charge attitudes who may do a great job. There are some that are great teachers, which we need. But just because someone is old and less charming, doesn't mean they can't be good too. IMHO, we lost out by not interviewing Vic Fangio, even if he never would have considered us, because his take on our roster is a valuable piece of information.
Fail for Fromm in full force.
As long as they dont' hire Gase, I'm fine with it. One thing about Gase, he's not as bad as many think, and he holds a grudge. He built a team to beat the Patriots, and he has done that several times. I don't want him to build a team to beat the Dolphins. We need to keep the Jets soft.
He just needed more time. I’m sure after enough time had passed, and after Brady and Belichick retired, then he could boost that record to .500 easily. Just needed more time. Same as Tannehill. In a few more years he could definitely, maybe, had beaten Buffalo in Buffalo— probably.Huh?? So he built a team specifically to go 2-4 against the Patriots from 2016 - 2018??
Well the point is that he actually had 2 wins in Miami in 3 years … yeah, that's a good record against the Patriots. The Patriots went undefeated at home this season … the home cooking is strong with that one. So yeah, beating them in Miami 2 of 3 years is an accomplishment.Huh??

We musn’t let facts get in the way of the Gase apologetics. Because even though he was a failure here and a jackass to boot, I’m sure he’s going to do amazing things wherever he ends up.From 2013 - 2015 (pre-Gase), the Dolphins went 3-3 against the Patriots.
Great, now quote the Patriots record against the Jets … and against the Bills. :-)From 2013 - 2015 (pre-Gase), the Dolphins went 3-3 against the Patriots.
