Browns coach Romeo Crennel said today that Brady Quinn is still his starting quarterback and that he's not on a short leash according to the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
"It's not an issue because he's the quarterback,'' said Crennel. "We like the things he's shown us. We need to help him more going down the stretch. If we can do that, we might be able to win a game.''
Crennel reiterated that he benched Quinn in the third quarter of Sunday's 16-6 loss to the Texans because of some misreads and because of his fractured right index finger.
"Because of some misreads and my knowledge of the finger situation, I decided to make the change,'' said Crennel. "If Derek Anderson had provided a spark, Brady Quinn would still be the starting quarterback.''
He said he told Quinn he had not lost his job, but that Quinn perhaps didn't fully grasp it because of his frustration.

Yes, yes, we know the "buck stops" with romeo. But, what does that mean, exactly. Will he step aside or won't he?
Somebody, somewhere, knows something...but he ain't talking. Bring on Billy C. and pay him a big fat salary from the $$$ renegotiated with Mr. Edwards at end of season.
Oh...and Go Browns. But somebody tell me what happens. I can't watch anymore...

You will be with another team next season. The Browns were waiting for the door to crack open. It did.

Braylon Edwards looks shell shocked out there look at everytime the camera zooms in on him he looks LOST, get him some motivational counseling...lol or better yet get him hypnotized " the ball is your friend" type stuff.
Things we need from our players to actually be contenders HEART, PRIDE, ENTHUSIASM, WRAP UP TACKLING BY THE LEGS (quit tackling high).
Things we need from our OWNER... active involvment, quit taking our fans money and ignoring the fact our team leadership, managment sucks. Get a fire and brimstone head coach who will not coddle our players, they are pro football players who get paid millions of bucks they need a butt chewing every now and then ....its a privelage not a right you overpaid drama queens. Phil Savage needs to go!!! hire a real defensive coordinator!!!! get all new linebackers ASAP..... like yesterday!!!! go after raiders CB Asomugha HARD this offseason.
Last but not least I believe our LB's would be of best service to ou fans selling hot dogs in the stands!!!!
