The Cleveland Browns are taking their sweet time in the NFL head coach search, and it’s leaving fans on the edge of their seats. With only three teams still in the hunt, the Browns seem to be playing the long game, even though they no longer face competition for their top candidates. The Arizona Cardinals and Las Vegas Raiders have their own finalists, which means Cleveland’s shortlist is uniquely theirs—a rare advantage in this high-stakes process. But here’s where it gets interesting: as of Tuesday night, Mary Kay Cabot revealed that the Browns have trimmed their list to just three candidates, cutting Washington Commanders’ run game coordinator Anthony Lynn from the running. As of Wednesday morning, the silence is deafening—no updates yet, but the clock is ticking. Are they ironing out contracts and staffing plans with their top pick, or still debating among the final three? One thing’s clear: Cleveland’s leadership isn’t rushing this decision. And this is the part most people miss: the deliberate pace could signal a strategic move to ensure the perfect fit, or it might just be a sign of internal debate. Either way, the Browns’ approach is sparking conversations. What do you think? Is their slow and steady method the right way to go, or are they risking losing momentum? Let’s hear your take in the comments—this is one debate that’s far from over.
