Actually I think he is totally wrong on the "money", Lewis is around 12th highest paid right now.. no way the new coach will be above that.. might guess is also the long term coaches are paid at a better rate also than some one guys coming in with probably less experience. Over the last 5 years, the Browns have continued to pay pretty well with long term contracts, they just don;t pay big FA contracts and are thin with amount of coaches, scouts etc.. that is where they save money but they are not cheap in contracts with coaches and players.
