Holmgren and Shanahan Return to the NFL

Just a couple of weeks ago the Cleveland Browns name former Seattle and Green Bay Coach Mike Holmgren team president. Holmgrem knows how to run a successful football team as a coach. I will be interested to see if he can do it as a President like Bill Parcells has. Cleveland has been absolutely one of the worst teams since coming back to the NFL. However they are not the only team to make a significant change. The Washington Redskins fired Jim Zorn and hired one of the best coaches ever in Mike Shanahan who took last year off after being fired by the Denver Broncos. He was the Broncos for 13 years and has coached a lot of great players along the way. I think his presence in Washington will have a huge effect on the team and the organization as well. Both teams have had poor records and I think next year that will change and they will both gradually get better with the new people running their team. The other team that has been struggling is the Kansas City Chiefs and they hired recently fired Notre Dame Head Coach Charlie Weiss as their new offensive coordinator. I had a feeling he would be back in the NFL but I didn’t know who he would work for. So three of the worst teams in the NFL have made some drastic changes to better their team. I will be curious to see how these teams fair in the off-season and and in the draft in terms of acquisitions. Only time will tell and we will have to wait until April to see what these teams do. Stay tuned for more coaching and personnel changes. I am hoping Bill Cowher and Jon Gruden come back. One can only hope for that to happen.
