Week 6 - The Straw that Broke the Mangina's Back

As Laz said yesterday, we have reached the point where the straw has broken the Mangina's back. Simply put, I usually don't give up on a coach or a GM in the first season, or even at the end of the 1st season. However, here's what Mangina has done:
1) He has hired an offensive coordinator who's dumb as dirt
2) He and his best friend who is the GM have traded the #5 pick (Mark Sanchez) and Braylon Edwards for less than market value due to overvaluing Mangina's players from the Jets.
3) He doesn't care about his players... as RB James Davis and WR Steptoe were both injured during mysterious practices. Yes, players get injured in practice, but the fact that there are rumors that Davis was not wearing pads while other players were is just inexcusable. And... with Mangina's strict rules I truly believe that where there is smoke there is fire.

So, I've given up. I want the Browns to hire a GM, who then hires a coach, and then hire an offensive coorinator. And, I don't want any Belichick disciples. It pains me to say it... but I now want the Browns to finish 1-15. It's good for the Browns in the long-term, that's for sure.

On to the games...

Giants @ Saints - Two undefeated teams that have been looking pretty dominant... it has to be the Manwich! I have no idea who will win. I guess I'll just go with the home team?
