Browns agreed to terms with Romeo Crennel on a two-year contract extension through 2011. Scout.com's Adam Caplan reports the deal can be worth up to $4.2 million annually.
Crennel, the NFL's oldest head coach, entered 2007 on the hot seat, but earned job security by leading Cleveland to a 10-6 record. If not for the Titans and Colts' alleged Week 17 collusion, the Browns would've made the playoffs for the second time since 1994. Crennel is adored by his players, and along with GM Phil Savage, has put together a solid young roster. He will need to find answers on defense to last long enough to finish his new deal.
