Well at least one half of the dreaded beast that has been holding the Browns back this year will not play this week.  QB Derek Anderson is being benched in favor of fan-favorite Brady Quinn.  Now if we can just get rid of Romeo Crennel too.
Fans, hang in there with us, we’re halfway through the season too, and in a season that has been far from what many expected, it can’t get any worse.  With that being said, it’s never too early to check out those collegiate players entering this year’s draft; my early November favorites are CB Vontae Davis [...]
