For forlorn Browns fans, all that's left is a slow, sad march to the finish

PHILADELPHIA -- It's just sad.
That's how I feel for Browns fans, who at least didn't have to pay to watch their team lose, 30-10, at Philadelphia Monday night.
This has become another of those seasons when the real story is who will be the coach next year. Who will they take in the draft? Who should be the quarterback? It's the kind of discussion that fans of losing teams have, fans like many of you.
Only this season, it hurts even worse because the Browns were supposed to be somebody. Five prime time games. Playoff contenders. A breakthrough year. Instead, it's just more broken dreams, mashed knees and calls for Joshua Cribbs to play quarterback.
Most of us know about all the injuries to key players such as Brady Quinn, Derek Anderson and Kellen Winslow. We know about all the mistakes by the coaches and front office. We know what went wrong.
But down deep, fans have to be wondering, "How did it get this bad?"
