Jerome Bettis feels Jamal's pain

November 4, 2009

Jerome Bettis seems to understand Jamal Lewis' feelings. Bettis writes on SI.com: " He's starting to ask, Why play anymore? Where's the upside? You play this game with hope that something good could come of it, and he knows the Browns are not getting better any time soon."

Hard to imagine the Browns season being worse

November 1, 2009

What's left to blog on the Browns?
Let's do some quick hits, then I'm going to post an entire Jamal Lewis postgame interview. I have great admiration for Lewis as a professional. As a result, I give great weight to what he says. First, though:

September 23, 2008

First and 10
1)      I'm of the understanding that Derek Anderson starts Sunday's game in Cincinnati. Not a lot of thought at all to starting Brady Quinn. I don't know what the leanings are if Anderson falters, so we'll see what happens. But the Browns aren't really going into this game with the idea that Anderson [...]

Catching up with the Browns and Jamal Lewis …

July 28, 2008

Made my way out to Browns camp on Monday and caught most of the morning practice. The conclusion after watching one workout: The dog days are hitting. This was not the crispest of workouts, though Travis Wilson did make a nice over-the-shoulder catch of a pass thrown by Brady Quinn. Yes, that was Travis Wilson [...]
