Things keep going from bad to worse for Hue Jackson.
He was fired after going 3-36-1 in two-plus seasons as the head coach of the Cleveland Browns, but Jackson wasn’t unemployed for long, though, as he was hired as a special assistant to Cincinnati Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis on Nov. 12.
With the Bengals having two games with the Browns in the final six weeks, Lewis might have thought Jackson could help his club pick up two much-needed wins down the stretch.
Boy was he wrong.
Baker Mayfield and the Browns clubbed the Bengals on Sunday, winning 35-20 behind the rookie quarterback’s four-touchdown performance.
With the Browns rolling their old head coach, Twitter, naturally, had too much fun roasting Jackson.

Hue Jackson: The only way I could have sucked more at my job is if I lost EVERY game as opposed to 31 out of 32 and somehow none of it was my fault

I guess Hue Jackson didn’t give the Bengals any tips.

Anybody with eyes: “Hue Jackson’s offense with #Browns was complete garbage.”
Bengals: “No worries. We will ask him to help coach our defense.” pic.twitter.com/ycprln2xSU
