I do believe that the Browns may not win another game and there is no respect given to Mangini by the players. Of course, they didn't give Romeo any respect so he was let go as well. This season can be described as anything that could wrong has done so and more. It is so bad, I have to wonder if they could beat the worst team in the UFL being the New York Sentinels. This season has just been horrible and just nothing more than being a punching bag.
If there is any sense of pride within the players, they would put forth more of an effort on the offense. Brady Quinn may not be the answer but is this team really going to be a fair assessment of what he can do? Yes, he could do better and so could Derek Anderson. It may be likely both of them are gone. Without a good line protecting the Quarterback, there isn't much that can be done to fix this mess.
Even if you fire Mangini, there just seems to be no end to failure and being a punching bag. I do have to wonder would it be better if the team never came back. That's something for another day.
Anyway, here is an article on this for the season with some thoughts inside of it.
Assessment of the Browns so far
I don't think there's an end to this. They might be better off trying to play in the UFL. Maybe then, they can play to their competition.
Is it just me or do the Cleveland Browns seem to be nothing more than a punching bag for about every team in the league? The exception is Buffalo. Only two winning seasons and it shows that there is a bunch of guys who really don't care. They don't have enough talent to even be a .500 team. You can bring in any coach with this mess and they would all fail.
After the Browns lack of effort against the Packers, it really does show that they are nothing more than a punching bag. If I had to compare it to wrestling, it's like being a jobber and used to make others look better. It seems that the Browns have become just that. I cannot be the only one to have observed this.
The drafting has been horrible. We don't know about the '09 draft for sure. I do know this, they have been failures at it. They don't have too much of anything except a bunch of players who are quitting on the team. That's all it looks like as well as being a punching bag. It is as if they have accepted the role that they are going to let other teams roll over them with ease.
This next game, they will be crushed. The Bears are going to beat them. How can anyone have confidence that Cleveland can win? They're going to do what they've been doing since 1999, be a punching bag to another team.
Right now, with school and other things going on outside the net, I'm going to take a little bit of a break on it. I will get some posts done in the meantime and when they are ready, I'll have them posted though it will be done by specific times they will be up and running.
The Cleveland Browns really have not been impressive and will be expected to receive a beating. When I say that, I am talking about overall since the team was here in 1999. I still do not and will not consider them the same franchise from the ones from the past from 1946-1995 playing as they were the original team. It is going to be them against the Steelers and it seems to be predictable in the sense that you all ready know what is going to happen. It does seem that it will not work out in their favor and there is just nothing that can be expected. The first quarter of the season is not impressive going 0-4. There are too many questions about this team that may never be answered.
There had been some talk about Brady Quinn being traded and it probably will be considered but what can you get for him? The answer would probably be not much of anything. He probably knows his days are numbered. Should they have kept him in there? I don’t know the answer to that but I don’t blame them if they think that he isn’t the guy that’s going to lead them to a Super Bowl. As far as talent, there isn’t much of it at this time

The Browns no longer have Braylon Edwards on the team. My thoughts are that it wasn't shocking that it happened other than it taking this long for it to happen. It pretty much felt like he was going to be gone no matter what. It's not something that would be a bad loss for Cleveland. He kept dropping the ball and really had some off the field issues.
To make it short, it was expected.

After Week 2, it is pretty clear that this team does not have the endurance for a full game. Notice how they had a chance to win possibly both games but the second half had been downright pathetic. There's no protection from the O-Line and the offense in general just for whatever reason doesn't get the memo to actually play a full game. So, here they go in general.
There is no running game. Jamal Lewis is unlikely to play due to a hamstring. It seems to be starting up with the injuries. Is it just me or does it seem like the Browns get hit with a lot of injuries at once? It's either because they don't train properly or just too fragile. Davis and Harrison should be interesting as a combination. We don't know about Davis and maybe there will be a running game but who knows

To be honest, they didn't get blown out like I thought they would. There is still work that needs to get done if they are to ever start looking like a team that can win games on a given night. Yes, they played well in the 1st half without question. They were every bit as bad in the 2nd half as they were good in the first half.
Brady Quinn still has work to do in order to prove he can be the guy for Cleveland. He made some mistakes and has to keep learning each and every week. I stated I would support him if he got to be the starter and I am doing so. He didn't do bad in terms of yards passed and could have done without an interception and a fumble. Other than that, it wasn't great but not horrendous either. He was okay

As some of you know, Jeff Hardy has left the WWE to pursue other interests. It is probably unlikely he will go back to TNA considering the way he left was not on very good terms. He left on horrendous ones. It is true that he had gotten himself in trouble with the law a bit and has to pay the price. Of course, that will be determined by the courts. Without knowing enough on it, to really comment on it would be foolish without all the facts.
However, he has left the WWE and quite honestly, maybe it was necessary. Have you ever noticed that he seemed to have a limp. That is what I noticed and that's not a good thing. Maybe once he recovers, he could come back if so desires but probably not a lesser schedule

This isn't a news piece but more of an opinion. If you had to compare the preseason stats for what they are worth, Quinn does have a higher passing rating than Anderson. Having said that, you cannot trade either one because what that could do is something terrible happening without a decent backup, you're screwed. How often do you see a starter finish a whole season without having to be taken out?
They lost to the Bears at the very end not losing by much. For whatever reasons, they have to avoid this type of situation. When you have a lead, you hold it until the very end. It is preseason yes, but that is something that must be corrected
