THE COACHES

ABOUT THE Eagles

CLEVELAND BROWNS - ROMEO CRENNEL Romeo Crennel is entering his fourth season as Head Coach and was rewarded with a two-year contract extension (thru 2011) on Jan. 29, 2008. Crennel led the Browns to a 10-6 record in 2007, including a franchisebest seven consecutive home wins, and witnessed six Browns selected to the Pro Bowl. Crennel’s offense developed into a highly productive unit and ranked eighth in the NFL in offense (5,621 net yards) and scoring (402 points). The output of net yards and scoring also ranked third best in franchise history. Crennel was named head coach of the Cleveland Browns on Feb. 8, 2005, the 11th full-time head coach in franchise history. Crennel returned to Cleveland in 2005, after serving as the Browns defensive coordinator in 2000, and along with Phil Savage helped rebuild the football operations. Crennel previously led the Browns to a respectable 6-10 record in his first year as a head coach and added a 4-12 mark in 2006. His resume includes 38 years of coaching experience, including 27 years in the NFL. Prior to rejoining the Browns, Crennel served as the defensive coordinator for New England (2001-04), helping the Patriots to three Super Bowl victories. From 1997-99, Crennel coached the defensive line on the New York Jets. He spent 12 years on the New York Giants coaching staff starting as the special teams and defensive assistant coach in 1981. Crennel began his professional coaching career in 1970 at his alma mater, Western Kentucky. He also saw stints at Texas Tech, Mississippi and Georgia Tech before entering the professional ranks.

Reid’s nineyear tenure at the Eagles helm has put him in an elite category as well. He is the 27th coach in NFL history to remain with this original team for nine-or-more years. Reid has guided the Eagles to an 8-8 mark in 2007. Reid came to the Eagles after spending seven seasons as an assistant coach with Green Bay under Mike Holmgren. During that span, the Packers reached the playoffs six times and defeated New England in Super Bowl XXXI. In his 17-year NFL coaching career, Reid’s teams have made the playoffs 12 times (17-11 record in those games).

Browns Get Offensive Against the Giants

BROWNS ACCOMPLISH RARE FEAT

In the 35-14 victory over the Giants on Oct. 13, the Browns set season highs for points (35), first downs (20), net yards (454), rushing yards (144), passing yards (310) and it marked the first time that the Browns were not sacked all season.

In the Browns 35-14 win over the Giants on Oct. 13, P Dave Zastudil enjoyed a quiet evening. The Browns offense did not have to punt, did not commit a turnover or allow a sack for the first time in club history. Since 1963, when sacks were officially recorded, there have only been four NFL games where an offense has not allowed a sack, committed a turnover or had to register a punt in a regular season game.

Cleveland also converted on 9-of-13 third downs for a 69% success rate, also a season best.

WR Braylon Edwards set a career high with 154 receiving yards on five receptions and a touchdown against the Giants on Oct. 13. It marked the ninth career 100-yard receiving game for Edwards. His previous career best was 149 yards at Arizona on Dec. 12, 2007.

DB Eric Wright was named AFC Defensive Player of the Week on Oct. 15. Wright had three solo tackles, two passes defensed and one interception returned for a touchdown in Monday Night’s 35-14 win over the New York Giants on Oct. 13. In the contest, Wright’s fourth quarter interception sealed the victory as his 94-yard interception return for a touchdown turned a 13 point advantage into the 35-14 final. The interception return also was the fourth longest in club history.

Zastudil sets franchise record

The Browns defense limited the Bengals to just 69 yards rushing in the Browns 20-12 victory on Sept. 28. The 69 yards rushing was the least amount that the Browns have allowed since Romeo Crennel brought the 3-4 defense to Cleveland in 2005.

With winds gusting between 40-50 miles per hour on Sunday Sept. 14, against Pittsburgh, the conditions were perfect for a difficult task for kickers on the special teams units. However, Browns P Dave Zastudil established a careerbest 53.0 gross average and 52.8 net average on his five punts for 265 yards. Zastudil’s net average also established a team single-game mark (dating back to 1970) and ranks tied for second-highest net punting single-game average in the NFL. More impressively, Zastudil set the tone early in the contest as four of his five punts came in the first quarter kicking into the gusty winds and his fifth kick came in the third stanza into the wind as well.

Browns Name 2008 Captains

Browns Honor Hall of Fame Guard

Browns Head Coach Romeo Crennel named LB Willie McGinest, LB Andra Davis, QB Derek Anderson, C Hank Fraley, K Phil Dawson and KR Joshua Cribbs as team captains for the 2008 season. The players were voted upon by their teammates.

The Browns will honor Hall of Fame offensive guard Gene Hickerson by wearing a sticker on the back, lower left of the helmet next to the NFL Shield for the remainder of the season. The round sticker will be black and have GH in white lettering.

McGinest (15th season) and Davis (7th season) will serve as defensive captains, Anderson (4th season) and Fraley (9th season) will serve as offensive captains, while Dawson (10th season) and Cribbs (4th season) as special teams captains.

Hickerson passed away Oct. 20 at the age of 73. Hickerson joined the Browns as a seventh-round draft choice out of Mississippi in 1957. His 15-year career, all with the Browns (1958-60, 1962-73), ended in 1973 as he played in 202 games, which ranks fourth highest in franchise history, including a streak of 165 consecutive games, which also ranks fifth longest in team annals. He appeared in six Pro Bowls (1966-71) and was voted an all-league selection on five occasions (1966-70). Hickerson was named the NFL’s most outstanding blocker in 1969 and throughout his career was part of an offensive line that paved the way for three Hall of Famers, legendary running backs Jim Brown, Bobby Mitchell and Leroy Kelly.

Each NFL club will have team captains wear a captain patch on their uniform. The idea came from NFL players during a meeting of Commissioner Roger Goodell’s new Player Advisory Council last season. The purpose of the program is to support and recognize the importance of team leadership through the role of the captains. Captains traditionally serve as a link between players, coaches and management to help foster cohesion within the teams.

“Everyone associated with the Cleveland Browns is saddened by his loss,” said Browns Head Coach Romeo Crennel. “His tenacity as a blocker and toughness as a player epitomized what it is to be a Cleveland Brown. We send our thoughts, prayers and condolences to the Hickerson family.” -9-

NEW FACES

2008 Browns Legends

Once again the Browns were busy during free agency. Not only did Cleveland ink several new players, but they also made several key trades to help the continued improvement of the team. Below is a recap of the Browns free agency activity:

The Cleveland Browns have announced that Warren Lahr (1948-59), Paul Wiggin (1957-67), Walter Johnson (1965-76) and Eric Metcalf (1989-94) are the newest members of the Cleveland Browns Legends based on the combined voting of fans and 10-member panel. All four Legends were inducted at a special ceremony at Cleveland Browns Stadium during the Browns home game vs. The New York Giants on October 13.

Name (Old team): How acquired DL Corey Williams (Green Bay): Trade (2008 2nd round pick)

The Browns created the Cleveland Browns Legends in 2001 to annually honor former players who have made a major impact on the organization. Players must have been on the Browns’ active roster for a minimum of five seasons. The Cleveland Browns Legends were determined by fan balloting on the Browns’ website – www.clevelandbrowns.com - (weighted 20%) along with voting by a 10-member Legends Panel (weighted 80%). Each of the Browns alumni in the Pro Football Hall of Fame were automatically inducted into the Cleveland Browns Legends.

• Played in 56 games for Green Bay and totaled 156 tackles and 17 sacks. Has recorded seven sacks in each of the last two seasons. In 2007 with the Packers, Williams played in all 16 games, including nine starts, and totaled a career-high 51 tackles, seven sacks for 38 yards, one interception for nine yards, three forced fumbles and one pass defended. DL Shaun Rogers (Detroit): Trade (CB Leigh Bodden and 2008 3rd round pick)

Warren Lahr – DB– 5’11 – 189 lbs – Years with Browns: 1948-59 A staple in the defensive backfield for the Browns for 12 seasons, Warren Lahr finished his storied career with 40 interceptions, landing him second on the alltime franchise list. In 1950, Lahr had his most prolific season as a cornerback, intercepting a career-best eight passes and ran back two picks for touchdowns. The Pennsylvania native followed his stellar 1950 season by returning two more interceptions for touchdowns in 1951 and started a streak of five seasons (19511955) where he recorded five interceptions. A graduate of Western Reserve, Lahr ended his career with 530 interception return yards and five defensive touchdowns and cemented his place in Browns history. Lahr passed away on Jan. 19, 1969.

• Seven-year veteran with Detroit has appeared in 98 career games, including 96 starts, and totaled 447 tackles, including 296 solo and 29.5 sacks for 217.5 yards. Named to two Pro Bowls following the 2004 and 2005 seasons. Had a career-high 7 sacks in 2007, starting all 16 games and adding 66 tackles and returning an interception 66 yards for a TD vs. Denver on Nov. 4, 2007. WR Donte’ Stallworth (New England): UFA • Six-year NFL veteran who has played in 84 games with New Orleans, Philadelphia and New England and has totaled 279 receptions for 4,213 yards (15.1 avg.) and 31 touchdowns. Last season with New England, Stallworth totaled 46 receptions for 697 yards and three touchdowns.

Paul Wiggin – DE – 6’3 – 242 lbs – Years with Browns: 1957-67 Wiggin aided with the progression of the defensive end position as one of the most dominant players of his era on the end of the defensive line. A sixth-round pick in the 1957 NFL draft out of Stanford University, Wiggin was a two-time first-team All-America selection and was inducted into the college football Hall of Fame in 2005. The durable Wiggin was the picture of endurance, playing in every game for 11 seasons in Cleveland. Despite playing his entire career at defensive end, Wiggin recorded three career interceptions and returned his lone interception in 1960, 20 yards for a touchdown. Born in Modesto, Calif., Wiggin returned to his alma mater and coached for three years after a three-year stint as a coach with the Kansas City Chiefs.

OL Rex Hadnot (Miami): UFA • Played in 63 games, including 55 starts, during his four-year career with the Miami Dolphins. During his career, Hadnot has started 34 games at right guard, 19 games at center and two games at left guard. Hadnot started 16 games at right guard last season with the Dolphins.

Walter Johnson – DT – 6’4 – 275 lbs – Years with Browns: 1965-76 Nicknamed “Zoom” for his notorious quickness off the ball, Johnson was taken by the Browns in the second round of 1965 NFL draft and went on to play every game of all of his 13 seasons in the league. Johnson teamed with DT Jerry Sherk to create one of the most dominant defensive tackle tandems of their time. During his career, Johnson fronted a Browns defense that notched twenty or more forced fumbles in every season he was on the team. Even as an interior defensive lineman, Johnson corralled two interceptions during his storied career and even broke off a 24-yard kickoff return playing special teams in 1972. Born in Cincinnati, Ohio, Johnson attended Los Angeles State University and ended his NFL career having played in 182 games. Johnson passed away on June 30, 1999.

DB Terry Cousin (Jacksonville): UFA • Eleven-year veteran who has played in 156 career games, including 68 starts, with Chicago, Atlanta, Miami, Carolina, N.Y. Giants and Jacksonville. Cousin has 533 career tackles, 12 interceptions, 6.5 sacks, 3 forced fumbles and 5 recovered fumbles during his career.

LB Shantee Orr (Jacksonville): UFA • Split last season with Houston and Jacksonville and appeared in a total of nine games, including two starts. Has appeared in 51 career games, including 25 starts. Orr has totaled 89 career tackles and 10.5 sacks for 64.5 yards and has added 25 career tackles on special teams.

Eric Metcalf – RB/KR – 5’10 – 188 lbs – Years with Browns: 1989-94 An explosive player at the University of Texas, Metcalf was selected by the Browns with the 13th overall pick in the 1989 NFL draft and made an immediate impact. In his rookie season, Metcalf rushed for 633 yards and six touchdowns while also reeling in 54 receptions for 397 yards and four scores. As a kick returner, Metcalf was regarded as one of the most dangerous players with the ball as shown by his 1,052 return yards in his second season, including two touchdowns one of which came via a 101-yard kickoff return. As his versatility increased throughout his career, Metcalf earned back-to-back Pro Bowl selections in 1994 and 1995 before he was traded to the Atlanta Falcons. With 43 career touchdowns from scrimmage and 12 more from kickoffs, the Seattle, Wash., native remains one of the biggest playmakers in the history of the Browns organization. -10-

Career Totals: 55 games, 51 starts Postseason Totals: 0 games, 0 starts Career Transactions: Drafted by Cleveland in the first round, third overall, in the 2005 NFL Draft. Career Highlights: Named to the Pro Bowl following a breakout 2007 season where he set a career-high in all four offensive categories—80 receptions, 1,289 yards, 16.1 avg. and 16 TDs…Set a franchise single-season record with 1,289 receiving yards and 16 TDs…Set a career-high 3 TDs vs. Miami on Oct. 14, 2007…In 2006, led the team with 884 yards receiving and 6 TDs…Recorded his first TD reception on an 80-yard TD reception at Green Bay on Sept. 18, 2005, and finished with 3 receptions for 107 yards.

DYNAMIC DUO Browns WR Braylon Edwards and TE Kellen Winslow became the first duo in Browns history to each record 1,000 yards receiving in the same season. “The opposing defense has to pick their poison, double either myself or Braylon,” said Winslow. “Braylon is good to have as a catalyst on this offense because he is getting open and beating his man. Opposing defenses have to account for both of us on the field and then it creates opportunities for other players.” Edwards became the sixth receiver in Browns history to eclipse the 1,000-yard mark in a single season, setting the franchise record for most receiving yards in a single season.

Smith Has Career Year with Browns

Williams Sets an Early Tone

DL Shaun Smith recorded a career high 63 tackles in his first season as a member of the Cleveland Browns during the 2007 campaign. Smith also registered his first two career sacks and finished with 4 QB pressures and one forced fumble.

Against the Steelers on Sept. 14, DL Corey Williams posted a career-high nine tackles, including six solo and three assisted tackles, for the fifth-year pro. Williams led the team in tackles and also shared a sack with S Nick Sorensen on a nine-yard sack of Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger. Since Romeo Crennel brought the 3-4 defensive scheme to the Browns in 2005, Williams’ performance marked only the fifth time since 2005 that a defensive lineman has either led the club or tied for the lead in tackles in a game.

Romeo Crennel Press Conference Transcript 12-8-08 (Opening statement)- “We looked at the tape and tried to figure out some things to see what we can do to help this team. I think the circumstances on this team have changed as we look at it and what we have to do is we have to realize the limitations that we have to work with and try to put the players in the best position to be able to execute and make plays. Going into this game in Monday night, that’s what we have to do. That’s what I’ve talked to the coaches about doing, kind of reevaluating a little bit to see how we can adjust some things and tweak some things to give us a better chance. I thought that the guys played hard but a couple times we didn’t play smart and tried to fight it for most of the game. Tennessee was able to make some plays and get ahead and we were not able to put many points on the board so I think that impacted the game. Tennessee is a very good football team, we knew that going in and they started hitting on pretty much all cylinders there in the second half and we couldn’t hold them back. That’s where we are and that’s what it looks like right now. I know that the quarterback, his first start in a while, he wasn’t as solid as he would like to be and that he will be. I think that we will have to work that to get him more comfortable which I think he will be going forward. Also, offensively, looking for ways to spark the offense, it looked like (Josh) Cribbs was a spark and so I think that we’ll have to give him a chance to be more of a spark and try to manage his other duties as well. That’s what I think we can do there. Defensively, they played and got some turnovers. Then in the second half I think they started trying to make some plays which created seams in the defense which allowed the opponent to gain some yards. I talked to the players about the Monday game, it’s the third one this year and we need to get ourselves going so that we can play good in that game, then continuing to fight because that becomes really important because that gives you a chance. It gives you the only chance, really, because if you don’t fight then you don’t have any chance. I talked to those guys about that and that’s what we’re going to do as we go down the road here.”

(On Ken Dorsey getting hit hard towards the end of the game)- “I was concerned about him taking the shots but we were the reason he was taking those shots. I think all the linemen take pride in trying to protect the quarterback and they don’t like to see the quarterback get hit. I know one in particular, the guy beat the snap count and sacked Dorsey and there was a penalty on that one but I don’t think they felt the need to get into a fight at that time.” (On the physicality of the game against the Titans)- “I don’t think it got out of hand but I think that we need to make better decisions. Spearing is spearing and we know the rules, we’ve shown them video from the league about what’s spearing and what’s unnecessary roughness and those things. They know what the rules are and they should not be making those kinds of penalties.” (On talking to Randy Lerner about his future)- “Randy has said that he’s going to wait until the end of the season to make any kind of determination. I think that we’re going to go through the season and then we’re going to sit down and talk and see where that leads.” (On coaching under scrutiny)- “It’s tough when you lose, I don’t care what the circumstance is, it’s always tough when you lose. If you’re in the profession and you’re in coaching, you don’t like losing but you have to get up every day and do the best you can. I think that if the coach doesn’t get up and do the best he can then it’s hard for the players to get up and do the best they can. I go in and I give them a plan and I tell them how we’re going to try to execute it and then we go play on Sunday.” (On Bruce Gradkowski being ready)- “We hope so because, like you said, with as many shots as Dorsey is taking, he needs to be ready to go. I think with another week under his belt that will help him.” (On Josh Cribbs)- “The guy plays really hard. He’s got some talent, got some toughness, he’s competitive and so I think all those ingredients make for an exciting player. When he gets the ball under his arm, everybody is excited about it and what he is capable of because we’ve seen that he can run for touchdowns. We’ve been working on things all during the year, some we haven’t used in the games. His package has gotten larger as the year has gone on so I think that if you use him more than that package that you have in, you just pull from those plays and that package is a pretty substantial package.”

(On injuries)- “This is what the injury situation is. Shantee Orr had a knee, he’s getting an MRI and we’ll know a little bit more later on. Jerome Harrison with his ribs, he’s getting as MRI and we’ll know a little bit more later on there. The normal guys with soreness, Shaun Rogers, Corey Williams, Shaun Smith, those guys I think they’ll be okay for this week and play in the game. Everybody else should be okay as well. (Kellen) Winslow, he didn’t make the trip, so we’ll have to take a look at him to see where he is and see if he’s making any progress with his ankle or not, then we’ll go from there.” (On continuing to fight)- “Human nature gets involved and human nature tells you that alright, it doesn’t look like you’re going to go anywhere. Sometimes the questions become, ‘Why do I need to go to the meetings? Why do I need to prepare? Why do I need to do this?’ So if they get that attitude then it falls further apart and that’s the thing that you don’t want. In this business, in the game of professional football, it’s a competitive business and you can see a lot of games go into the fourth quarter and go down to the wire so you have to fight to give yourself and your team the best chance.” (On playing younger players in the last three games)- “I think that we’re going to look to try to win a game. I think that’s what you have to do, that’s why you coach the game is to try to win. Now, if a younger guy gives you a chance to win then you can do that and you can maybe try to mix him in to maybe try to give him a play or two. I think you try to win the game. I think maybe we cut back on some of the things that we’re trying to do understanding what some of the limitations are and do a little bit less. If there’s somebody that we think can help us win then we’ll tweak it.”

October 13, 2008 Cleveland Browns Stadium, Cleveland, Ohio

October 19, 2008 FedEx Field, Landover, Md.

Cleveland earned its second win of the season as the Browns offense rolled to 454 net yards of offense and the defense forced three interceptions in a 35-14 win over the defending Super Bowl champion Giants on Monday Night. In the contest, the Browns jumped to an early lead with K Phil Dawson’s 28 yard field goal and RB Jamal Lewis’ 4-yard TD run opened a 10-7 second quarter lead. The Browns extended the lead with QB Derek Anderson’s 22-yard TD strike to TE Darnell Dinkins, however Giants QB Eli Manning connected with Plaxico Burress on a 3-yard TD pass to cut the Browns lead to 17-14 at the half. In the third stanza, Dawson extended the lead with a 26-yard FG and WR Braylon Edwards converted an 11-yard TD pass from Anderson on the first play in the fourth quarter to open a 27-14 cushion. In the 4th quarter, DB Eric Wright picked Manning’s pass attempt and returned the interception 94 yards for a TD, the fourth longest in club history, for the 35-14 final.

The Redskins used two second half touchdowns to down the Browns 14-11 at FedExField. RB Clinton Portis found the endzone on a three-yard touchdown run and an 18yard touchdown toss to WR Santana Moss opened up a 14-3 Washington lead. In the fourth quarter, the Browns mounted a comeback with a one-yard touchdown pass from QB Derek Anderson to WR Joshua Cribbs and converted a two-point conversion attempt to WR Braylon Edwards with 2:44 remaining in regulation. The Browns defense forced the Redskins to punt and provided the Browns offense one more opportunity. Anderson led the Browns in six plays down to the Redskins 36 yard line to set up a 54 yard game-tying field goal attempt by K Phil Dawson which missed wide right with 25 seconds remaining. In the contest, Anderson was 14 of 37 passing for 136 yards and one touchdown and RB Jamal Lewis rushed for 80 yards on 19 carries (4.2 avg.). Edwards led the club with four receptions for 58 yards (14.5 avg.). Defensively, the Browns forced one turnover as DB Eric Wright stripped Portis late in the 4th quarter, which was recovered by S Brodney Pool, and led to the Browns late touchdown.
