No excuse. He had 4 years...Saban took a 4-12 team to a 9-7 team in his first year. Belichick took a 3-13 team to 6-10 the next year. Looks like Saban did a better job with the turn around.
With the worst franchise in the NFL at that time. The rumor was Art Modell intentionally tried to tank the Browns so he could move them to Baltimore. Wayne Huizenga would have sold his soul to win a Super Bowl.

"In November 1995, in the middle of the ongoing football season, Browns owner Art Modell had announced he would move his franchise to Baltimore after the season. After first being given assurances that he would coach the new team that would later become the Baltimore Ravens, Belichick was instead fired on February 14, 1996, one week after the shift was officially announced.[31"
Weird why Modell would fire him just when everything was nearly completed if he'd been happy with his performance.
