Afraid you are right about Romeo. I think he's a good coach during the week but he doesn't realy think fast enough at game time. He's been known to have a lot of trouble with picking the time to throw the red flag. ( he did win the call earlier on the remarkable Brylon Edwards catch in the end zone, but challenging that one was pretty much a no brainer.
But I can tell you Cleveland is encouraged by the Browns going down fighting to Pittsburgh instead of just saying "Thank you sir, may I please have another" I'm hoping we see them again in the playoffs. I think this year the Browns are for real If the defense pulls it together ( and we ever learn to pressure the QB ) we're gonna have something - certainly something more than we thought we had at the beginning of the year. Yeah, Romeo really blew it. I'm sure the Brown fans are happy right now about being competitive, but the truth is that they could have WON the game had Romeo not royally screwed up with the timeouts. WHEN ARE NFL HEAD COACHES GOING TO LEARN THAT YOU SAVE YOUR 2ND HALF TIMEOUTS?????
Cleveland would be tied for 1st in the WC and the division with a win today. They could still make the playoffs, but something tells me that this game will come back to haunt them.
