It boggles the mind

After that performance against a lousy defense Sunday night, Pat Shurmur is the FAVORITE (per Adam Schefter on Twitter) to become the new head coach of the Cleveland Browns? Then again, ESPN Sunday morning was calling Marty Mornhinweg, whose head coaching stint in Detroit may have been one of the worst ever in sports, a leading candidate, so obviously, the competition can't be that tough.

That's got to excite the Cleveland fan base, doesn't it? Bill Cowher's out there, everybody's after Stanford HC Jim Harbaugh, Jeff Fisher might be available, but WE'RE hot on the trail of the offensive coordinator whose team scored SIX points against Seattle in a winner-take-all for the playoffs this weekend.

The bad news for Rams fans: you really hate to start changing offensive coordinators on Sam Bradford when he's only been in the league a year. The OC merry-go-round didn't exactly help Jason Campbell's career.

The good news: the Rams play Cleveland next year, so we're already starting 2011 with a win. I'm pretty sure we can watch out for Peyton Hillis on the A-gap slam.
