BEREA – Rookie running back James Davis has been following Jamal Lewis for much of his playing career.
The two played for the same school, Frederick Douglass High School in Atlanta, years apart and now find themselves on the same professional team.
According to Davis, Lewis set all the school rushing records and he broke them. ‘’I [...]

Cleveland Browns: From the Coach

September 17, 2008

Coach Romeo Crennel had little problem calling what wide receiver Braylon Edwards is enduring currently a slump.  He's more concerned, however, with getting Edwards' problems corrected. Right now the wideout has five receptions for 46 yards.  Gee, think those fantasy football wonks who have him on their rosters are a bit miffed?  You betcha.
It’s always [...]

Cleveland Browns: In the Locker Room

September 17, 2008

Ummm…sure the Northeast Ohio Browns media were in the locker room this afternoon, but it resembled something out of an episode of The X-Files.  Many players were mysteriously missing.  Yes, we know that the problem lies in the fact that they lost this past Sunday, but as one person in the room observed:  "You're here [...]

Cleveland Browns: In the Locker Room

September 10, 2008

'Just Another Game'
Is this what free agency have wrought?  A couple of media members did a double take in the Browns locker room when Shaun Smith downplayed the importance of this Sunday night's Browns-Steelers game that's being televised nationally on NBC (WKYC Channel 3)
"It's just another game.  We're trying to get better and trying to [...]

Cleveland Browns: In the Coach's Office

September 10, 2008

- Browns Coach Romeo Crennel has always struck me like a bear in appearance and demeanor.   With respect to the latter, he only growls when necessary and in private.  But that hibernation-like demeanor kind of leaves me wondering whether he can ultimately hang on to the confidence of his players.
Take today's press conference for instance:
"We [...]

You guys watched it; it wasn't pretty. I won't continue the pain here.

Browns v. Lions – Third quarter

August 23, 2008

Romeo Crennel proved true to his word. While the third preseason game is the one where first teamers see the most action, Crennel said in a recent practice that he wouldn't be telling them when they were coming out of the game – primarily because he thought it mad them in a hurry to get [...]

Browns v. Lions – Second Quarter

August 23, 2008

Quinn's third possession doesn't bode any better.  Again three and out with ineffective blocks courtesy of the right side of the line leads to Quinn getting splattered to the turf on his tookes.
The Browns just succeeded in making Dan Orlvosky look Favre-esque twice on the Lions first possession of the second quarter.  And Kevin Smith [...]

Browns v. Lions – First Quarter

August 23, 2008

First drive:  All of a sudden Jon Kitna looks like a junior Fran Tarkenton (for those of you under 40, look him up).  He completes two third and eights on the drive after scrambling away from pressure.  The good news is the Browns are getting pressure; the bad is that Kitna is evading it.  The [...]
