Former Browns coaches Pettine, Shanahan square off

Former Cleveland Browns head coach Mike Pettine is the defensive coordinator of the Green Bay Packers, tasked with stopping Kyle Shanahan's San Francisco 49ers offense. Shanahan, of course, was the offensive coordinator for Pettine in 2014 in Cleveland, for a team that was 7-4 at one point. That team lost five in a row when Pro Bowl center Alex Mack went down, and ownership promoted the transition to Johnny Manziel to replace Brian Hoyer.

One sure-fire way to generate outrage on Twitter is to post that there might be some positive contribution from former coaches of the Browns.
