Browns bashing

Football Digest, Sept, 2004 by Don Lavelli

As a longtime fan of the Cleveland Browns, it sickens me to see what's happened to them. Since coming back into the league, its been one disaster after another. It looked like they were turning the corner in 2002, when they made the playoffs. But then they went 5-11 last year. This year could be even worse. As long as Butch Davis is coaching that team, they'll never go anywhere. He's made so many mistakes that the team never will get better. I've lived through some bad times with the Browns, but this is about as bad as they gel Bring in a new coach and start over. That's all we can do.
