Sometimes the right decision is the most obvious one. When the options are clear-cut and have no shades of grey, these are simple questions with simple solutions.
The Cleveland Browns have often still found a way to make the wrong decision in those circumstances.
Whether it was head coach Mike Pettine implicitly encouraging the media circus surrounding quarterback Johnny Manziel, general manager Ray Farmer texting plays down to the sideline, star wide receiver Josh Gordon not keeping his personal life in check, or the team forcing game-plan gurus Rob Chudzinski, Norv Turner, Ray Horton, and Kyle Shanahan out the door, the Browns have been a masterpiece of mismanagement in recent years.
