Savage’s email should be the last straw
The Cleveland Browns went from a team that barely missed the playoffs last year to a miserable team this year. Even the general manager is acting miserably.
General manager Phils Savage has confirmed to the associated press today that he sent a letter saying “Go root for Buffalo F#$* Y*&.
The email was a response to an email from a fan that stated this regime is worst than former head coach Butch Davis.
What Savage did was down right stupid. That what people want you to do, and this is what happens when it does.
Savage had to take the high road in this instance, but he didn’t. In the end this should cost him his job. Which, it looks like it possibly has.
According to Pro Football Talk.com the Cleveland Browns have approached former Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Bill Cowher.
The Browns offered a contract worth eight to nine million dollars a year. Also, Cowher would have final say in personnel matters, and install some people he trusts at key positions.
The only thing now is for the Browns to wait for a response from Cowher. A yes, and it is most likely bye-bye to Savage. A no would most likely save his bacon.
