MacD BengalFan Posted October 24, 2006 Report Share Posted October 24, 2006 That's three offensive coordinators dumped in the first 7 weeks of the season. Good grief.How about in the past 7 days? Arizona and Baltimore canned theirs last week. It is not safe to be an offensive coordinator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChadJohnson-85 Posted October 25, 2006 Report Share Posted October 25, 2006 Browns offensive coordinator Carthon quits NFL.com wire reports BEREA, Ohio (Oct. 24, 2006) -- Maurice Carthon resigned as Cleveland's offensive coordinator on Oct. 24, two days after the Browns' NFL-worst offense managed only one touchdown and seven points in a loss to Denver. Carthon, whose head-scratching play calls and personnel moves angered fans and puzzled players, was in his second year running the offense. Despite having two weeks to devise a game plan, the Browns picked up only 165 total yards in losing 17-7 to the Broncos and are ranked at or near the bottom of the league in most offensive categories. The team has scheduled a news conference at 1:30 p.m. with coach Romeo Crennel to address Carthon's departure. It's unclear if Carthon quit on his own or was forced out by Crennel, who hired him last year and had been reluctant to remove his close friend. Cleveland's offense didn't move the ball inside Denver's 40-yard line until the final play of the third quarter and scored its only touchdown following an 18-yard drive set up by Browns linebacker Andra Davis' interception. Last season under Carthon, the Browns scored a league-low 232 points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
