Rightly or wrongly, he's going to have to deal with some skepticism from Browns fans. The way management botched the firing of Chud and the coaching search, he's got the stigma of the guy they settled for rather than the guy they actually wanted. I think the only way he's going to win over some fans will be to win football games. I've always found many of my friends who are Browns fans to be pretty optimistic about the team and generally willing to give the team the benefit of the doubt when it comes to coaching hires. But as of late they sound more like Bengals fans in their pessimistic view on the situation.
