Savage has the chops after all.
For Browns' fans under the age of 35, there's a story to be told - in the mid-80s, a local kid who played QB was highly-touted coming out of college and wanted to play in Cleveland. Bernie Kosar worked the system and became the face of the franchise through its most productive period since the days of Jim Brown. The only thing that kept the Browns of the late 80s from reaching the Super Bowl was the inability ot get Denver's #7 off the field on third down in the post-season.
Some 20+ years later, Brady Quinn had a similar wish to play in Cleveland. The similarities don't stop there. Quinn and Kosar had a lot of the same football "intangibles." Both have high football IQs, were very productive for big-time programs and were highly touted coming out of college.
The difference - Quinn has a better arm and is a lot more athletic than Kosar, who was often referred to as looking like "a giraffe in heat" when he played for the Browns.
Today, for better or worse, the Browns have a face on their franchise again.
That's a good start.
