Winning, as they say, solves everything. But while we wait for Eric Mangini to work his magic in Cleveland, it's perfectly reasonable to wonder what the hell he's doing. Last weekend, Mangini -- who replaced Romeo Crennel in January nine days after getting the Romeo Crennel treatment from...

Head coach Romeo Crennel is understandably underwhelmed by the prospect. "He's a very smart quarterback and he's a competitor," Coach Romeo Crennel said. "He probably doesn't have some of the physical skills some other quarterbacks in the NFL have. I think that's probably been the bigges...

By Michael David Smith Cleveland Browns coach Romeo Crennel has forgotten more about personnel evaluation than I'll ever know, but when he claims that his own wide receiver, Kevin Kaspar, is similar to New England Patriots wide receiverWes Welker, well, he's just plain wrong. The two aren't similar at all. In f...

Anderson's contract pays him significantly more than the deal the Browns gave Bra...

By Michael David Smith According to Adam Schefter of NFL Network, the contract guarantees Anderson $14 million. What most likely happened is that Anderson had that offer on the table from the Browns and decided to let the free agency deadline pass to see if another team offered him more, and when no one did, he cho...

By JJ Cooper Filed under: Steelers, AFC North, PittsburghEach week I go back and rewatch the Steelers game to take a look at which offensive linemen starred and who left Willie Parker and Ben Roethlisberger on their back. You can see the reports from throughout the season here.

By JJ Cooper Sack #1: On a simple four-man rush with no trickery right tackle Kevin Shaffer was simply blown back into Frye by Aaron Smith for the sack. The sack occurred 2.97 seconds after the snap, so it's borderline, but this one is more about the offensive line than Frye.

After all, the only times his name was mentioned was when he was flagged for a pair of holding penalties--two holding penalties in one half seems like an awfu...

By JJ Cooper If that happens as expected, than the Browns' QB battle is back to what it was last year--Frye vs. Anderson.

The former first-overall pick has been out of football since 2003, and during his rocky five-year career, managed to throw 64 touchdowns, 67 interceptions, and will the Browns to 26 wins (though, to be fair, Kelly Holcomb should get most of the cre...
