Make that #10

Well Browns fans, you can't tell me that you are honestly surprised we lost to the Steelers AGAIN!!! As much good as Romeo Crennel has done for our team, he has done just as much bad by always playing it safe and never taking any risks. Maybe Crennel would finally get some guts after a few mentoring sessions by Mike Shanahan. I mean with three minutes and change left in the game and your down by seven inside your opponent's redzone, how can you justify kicking a field goal on fourth and seven? To me it's a no brainer, either way you're still down a touchdown if you have any chance of winning the game. Why not go for it, especially when Willie Parker has gashed our defense the entire game for huge chunks of yardage. Romeo Crennel is not Head Coach material. He would be much better suited in a Front Office position or as a defensive coordinator. Cleveland needs a coach that isn't afraid to win games in crunch time which Romeo is. Crennel has continually put his tail between his legs and ran away when faced with a decision that means taking a calculated risk. His inefficiency to manage a game has proven fatal in the loss column. Starting out 0-2 is not exactly the way anyone affiliated with the Browns envisioned the season taking off.
I was watching ESPN this morning, to be more specifically Mike and Mike in the morning, they said that in the eighteen years since the NFL implemented the current playoff format only nineteen teams have made the playoffs after starting the season at 0-2 which figures out to about one team a year. I will bet anyone who is willing to take a bet that Cleveland will not be that one team to pull themselves out of an 0-2 hole. My best guess is that they end up with a top-10 draft pick in the 2009 NFL Draft. This season is gonna be a lost cause for three foreseeable reasons, 1. poor coaching 2. injuries and 3. Derek Anderson. That's right; I said it, Derek Anderson. His poor decision making and inability to make plays will eventually lead to his demise. I hope Crennel wises up and starts Quinn, but that won't happen because Crennel is a wussy. Nothing would please me more to see Phil Savage terminate Romeo Crennel's contract.
