Mike Holmgren regrets not becoming head coach of the Cleveland Browns during his tenure with the organization.

"I really just should have coached the team, but [Lerner] didn't want me to," Holmgren told TheMMQB.com.

Holmgren, who was hired by the Browns in December 2009, retained coach Eric Mangini for the 2010 season. Holmgren replaced Mangini with Pat Shurmur.
