Under Schottenheimer, the Browns won division titles in 1985, 1986 and 1987, and claimed a wild card spot in 1988. Even though he last coached a Browns game 31 years ago, Schottenheimer still ranks:fourth in franchise history with 44 winsthird in winning percentage at .620third in most playoff appearances with sixThose 44 wins may not sound like much, but Schottenheimer did that in just 71 games with the Browns. When you consider that the combination of Hue Jackson Jim Brown Jersey 2019 , Rob Chudzinski, Pat Shurmur, Eric Mangini, Chris Palmer and Mike Pettine coached the Browns for a combined 184 games and only collected 41 wins, you realize the Browns had something special with Schottenheimer.After the Browns, Schottenheimer coached the Kansas City Chiefs for 10 seasons, making the playoffs seven times Cleveland Browns Andraez Williams Jersey , and finishing with a winning percentage of .634, which is second best in Chiefs’ franchise history.His .588 winning percentage in five seasons as head coach of the San Diego Chargers is third best in franchise history.The biggest mark against Schottenheimer is that he failed to a win a title. Browns fans do not need to be reminded about how things worked out for his four playoff teams in Cleveland. Overall, Schottenheimer’s teams only won five playoff games in 18 appearances.Even so, when you look at his overall body of work compared some of the other head coaches, it is becomes clear that Schottenheimer deserves a spot in the Hall of Fame. From the moment the 2018 regular season ended, the possibility existed of the 49ers making a run at trading for Giants receiver Odell Beckham Jr. Ultimately, the 49ers did. At the end of the day Womens Andraez Williams 2019 Jersey , however, the 49ers didn’t get a chance match or beat the package the Giants got from the Browns.The recent ESPN article regarding the trade indicates that the 49ers were “stunned” by New York’s failure to shop Cleveland’s offer to the 49ers, given that San Fran G.M. John Lynch and Giants G.M. Dave Gettleman had been talking about a possible trade for “weeks.”But it was smart for the Giants to not try to get more out of the 49ers. After all, the trade to Cleveland allowed the Giants to get Beckham out of the conference.If the Giants had traded Beckham to the 49ers, the Giants would have seen him at least once every three years, and possibly every year depending on where the Giants and 49ers finish in their respective divisions. (The Giants don’t play the 49ers in 2019.) In theory, the Giants also would have been potentially competing with the 49ers each and every year for playoff berths and/or home-field advantage.Then there’s the shared history of the two franchises Cleveland Browns Andraez Williams Jersey , which resulted in plenty of hard-fought and even harder feelings between the teams in the 1980s and early 1990s. If the 49ers are on the verge of a turnaround, why should the Giants assist it by sending them one of the best receivers in the league?So, yes, even at a time when the Giants have received plenty of warranted criticism for how they’re handling their business, they made a good business decision by ensuring that OBJ won’t be in their business more often than once every four years.
