That said, the man took an expansion team in an era when it was hard to do, went the playoffs relatively quickly (in an era with fewer berths), and within 20 years made it to two Super Bowls. Under his leadership, a whole brand new offensive scheme was developed (the West Coast), as well as the zone blitz defense. He realized his folly with Walsh, and hired a very innovative Walsh disciple in Sam Wyche. It was 34 seconds away from the promised land. Paul also made some very productive trades....Bacon, Joiner, Brooks, etc. Mike Brown does none of this.
For sure, Mike has the same blood but that pretty much is where the similarities end.
Paul Brown was a great owner, Mike Brown is a terrible one and is stubbornly stupid in not admitting that someone out there
just might know more about football then himself. The proof is right in front of his nose with the lack of a Playoff win in all of
his time as owner. If he was so smart he would of hired a real GM by now and this team would of won a Playoff game or two.
