Garcia Gone
I can't say "we hardly knew ya" cause, frankly, I think we knew far too much about Jeff Garcia, and despite being a battler on the field, the guy was a jackass the rest of the time. It's a shame too cause I had some high hopes for him in Cleveland and really thought he'd be a noticeable upgrade over Couch/Holcomb since he was so much more mobile. But he seemed more interested in battling the gameplan than beating the opponent, and most of his mobility was spent off the field shuttling between various West Side bars and women's bedrooms. Garcia's 2004 presence in Cleveland may ensure Butch Davis never gets another head coaching gig in the pros, and may relegate him to seond or third tier college programs as well.
Robiskie Not
Robiskie must be a pretty good guy to stay employed in Cleveland. I mean, it's almost automatic that a new regime wants its own people, and for Robiskie to stay on in any capacity despite having no particular ties to Crennel is somewhat remarkable. I guess it means one of three things: 1) Robiskie is a good asset, 2) Crennel doesn't know what he is doing, 3) Crennel would like someone else, but figures Robiskie can hold the spot for a year.
Jeff Davidson to coach the O-Line
This guy sounds pretty good. It's a ncie story since he's got Ohio roots and he really wants to be here. Besides that, Romeo had some flattering things to say about him in terms of his philosophy in run blocking and pass protection. Music to my ears. Also, the fact that Belichek considered him to fill NE's OC position is another nice recommendation.
Todd Grantham a possible D-coordinatorGood things: The texans sucked last year, but their defense was promising in the years prior. They have experience running a 3-4. He seems to be well regarded, and is rumored to have turned down the Dolhins DC job cause he was hoping to get the job in Cleveland.
Bad things: The Texans sucked last year. Grantham was the D-Line coach and, well, the job of the D-Line in a 3-4 is basically to eat up blockers and keep the linebackers free. I was never a defensive lineman, but that doesn't seem to be the most complicated position to coach. (Am I seriously mistaken here?)
