Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Owner Randy Lerner, GM Phil Savage and former Brown great and team consultant Jim Brown spoke with Romeo Crennel during Cleveland's bye week about replacing Carthon, the source said. Crennel was opposed to a change and stuck with Carthon for Sunday's home game against Denver. But after another dismal offensive performance and speculation that Crennel might indeed lose his job after the season if he did not acquiesce with the front office, the decision was made to dismiss Carthon.
