Butch Davis
When the Browns scooped up Butch Davis he was tabbed as the potential savior of a reeling franchise (how many times have we heard that), mostly due to the reputation he built during his time as coach at Miami University. His legacy of winning football games wasn’t enough to counteract the Browns losing attitude.
He made the playoffs once during his tenure, only to blow a 17-point second-half lead in his only postseason appearance. Two years later, Davis was canned after giving up 58 points to his team’s divisional rivals, the Cincinnati Bengals. Davis returned to college football and the Browns continued to suck.
