CLEVELAND - The Browns cant make it through one off-season without upheaval.While owner Jimmy Haslam decided to retain coach Mike Pettine and general manager Ray Farmer for another season, the Browns are in need of a new offensive co-ordinator and quarterbacks coach. Coordinator Kyle Shanahan and coach Dowell Loggains are no longer with the team, a person familiar with the decisions told The Associated Press on Thursday.Shanahan and Loggains spent one year on Pettines staff but will not be back for the 2015 season, said the person who spoke on condition of anonymity because the Browns have not commented on the moves.Its not immediately clear if the 35-year-old Shanahan asked to be released from his contract or was fired. He and Loggains were both under contract for another year.Fox Sports first reported the departures.Shanahan, who previously worked in Washington, is expected to interview for Buffalos head coaching vacancy. His father, Mike Shanahan, also interviewed with the Bills and has drawn interest from several NFL teams.During his season-ending news conference last week, Pettine said he still had confidence in Shanahans offensive system despite the Browns losing their last five games. Pettine said then that he expected Shanahan to be back for a second season. Clevelands coaching staff reconvened this week to evaluate players and plan ahead.The Browns sudden separation from Shanahan after a season in which he dealt with a quarterback competition, key injuries and the 10-game suspension of former Pro Bowl wide receiver Josh Gordon could point to larger problems within the organization. Pettines decision to bench starting quarterback Brian Hoyer in favour of rookie Johnny Manziel backfired.Manziel looked overwhelmed and unprepared as the Browns were shut out Dec. 14 by Cincinnati, a loss that ended Clevelands playoff hopes. The team selected the former Heisman Trophy winner in the first round of last years draft.Change has been a consistent trend in Cleveland — at quarterback and with coaches. Pettine is the fifth head coach since 2008, and Shanahan was the teams fifth co-ordinator since 2009 as only Brian Daboll (2009-10) has been able to hang onto the job for more than one season.Loggains claim to fame with the Browns was telling an Arkansas radio station that Manziel sent him a text message during the draft that the quarterback wanted to come to Cleveland so they could wreck this league together. Loggains said he forwarded the text to Pettine and Haslam. The Browns moved up from No. 26 to No. 22 and selected Manziel, who spent the first 13 games backing up Hoyer before making two starts.Last week, Farmer flatly denied that Haslam pushed for him to draft Manziel.I know a lot of people want to stick that on Jimmy, but for the world to hear, Jimmy Haslam did not make that call, Farmer said. He didnt try to influence the decision.Shanahans system included a zone-blocking scheme and a lot of play action. Cleveland finished 23rd in total offence and 27th in scoring.Shanahan was forced to navigate through key injuries as former Pro Bowl centre Alex Mack broke his left leg and was lost for the season and tight end Jordan Cameron missed time with a concussion. The Browns also released running back Ben Tate, leaving Shanahan with two rookie backs. He was also without Gordon, who led the league with 1,646 yards receiving in 2013, for the first 10 games while he served an NFL drug suspension.Next season, the Browns offence will be starting from scratch like they do almost every year.___Online:AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL Wholesale Raiders Jerseys .

The loss drops Winnipegs record to 3-4 during this past weeks seven-game homestand.REGINA -- The Saskatchewan Roughriders defence had Hamilton Tiger-Cats quarterback Zach Collaros under siege for much of the night. The Riders sacked the first-year Hamilton starter 10 times and limited the Tiger-Cats to less than 200 yards total offence in a convincing 31-10 victory on Sunday at Mosaic Stadium. "Our defence played lights out," said Riders quarterback Darian Durant, who tossed a pair of touchdown passes in the game. "Give them the lead and they can really tee off on the opposing team." Ricky Foley led the Riders defence with six tackles and three sacks. John Chick and Derek Walker each had two sacks, and the defending Grey Cup champions looked dominant in front of 19,285 spectators that braved wet and windy weather. "It seemed like a lot of things we working for us," Chick said. "You see the chemistry of the guys today. A bunch of us have a full season under our belts working together and the new guys are coming along. To see everyone working together was great." The poor weather didnt slow the Riders offence. Saskatchewan scored on three of its first four possessions and enjoyed a 24-1 lead at halftime. The Riders racked up 196 yards of offence in the first half compared to just 96 yards from Hamilton. First-year Riders running back Anthony Allen rushed for 158 yards and scored two touchdowns in his first CFL start. Durant connected with eight different receivers on the day and threw touchdown strikes to Allen and fellow newcomer Brett Swain. "We live out here," Durant said when asked how well the offence moved the ball despite the lousy weather. "IIt has been raining for a month and weve been practising in it day in and day out.dddddddddddd We prepared ourselves for this and we did a great job of not letting (the weather) be a factor." Tiger-Cats head coach Kent Austin didnt use the weather as an excuse for his teams poor debut, although it didnt help in its bid for a come-from-behind victory on the road. "I saw not a very good football team today," Austin said. "We have to make a great improvement in a lot of areas right now. I have to get our guys more discipline. Our penalty situation is ridiculous right now. "It was a monsoon out there, and the wind a Im not making excuses for (Collaros). It was tough conditions to play in. Their pressure just compounded things." Saskatchewan had Collaros on the run early. Walkers first sack snuffed Hamiltons opening offensive drive, and on their second possession, it was a sack by linebacker Sam Hurl that led to punter Justin Medlock conceding a safety. A Collaros fumble and a snap that sailed over Medlocks head on a punt attempt just added to Hamiltons woes in the first half. Luke Tasker scored Hamiltons lone touchdown on a 10-yard pass from Collaros. "Im not angry at the team," said Austin, whose club was penalized 17 times for 148 yards. "Its about getting better. This game means something only if we learn to get better from it. Other than that, it has no meaning. We have to limit our mistakes and learn how to get better." Saskatchewan will visit the Toronto Argonauts (1-0) in Week 2. Hamilton, meanwhile will travel to Edmonton to take on the Eskimos (1-0).
