So, after yet another Shipwreck Ron debacle in Oakland, having Kalil and Gradkowski IR'd, following Luke suffering one of the hardest concussions to watch on live TV, following the NFL allowing open season on our franchise QB and league MVP in Cam throughout most of the season, and all of that cumulating in one of the worst seasons by a team to ever reach the Superbowl the season prior and likely yet another two seasons gone without back to back winning records, it had me thinking...

The Browns fans have long been considered the most downtrodden fanbase in possibly all of sports, but most definitely in the NFL.  But, I think that's a bit unfair.  They did win championships prior to the Superbowl era and they did have great success at various periods since, they just never won the Superbowl.

But, as a Panthers fan, I think it may be worse to experience such extreme highs without actually achieving the ultimate goal and then immediately follow that up with a manic swing to the opposite end of the success/failure spectrum and flail around magnificently in record-breaking ways.

It's a sad, slow crawl to the end at this point, so it had me thinking this morning to pose this question.  If you can answer it as objectively as possible, which fanbase has it worse?  I seriously think there is an argument to be made for our case, because at least if you have are a Browns fan, at some point you learned to temper your expectations (and not to mention, most Browns fans are also Cavaliers fans, who happened into unbelievable "luck" with multiple #1 picks, Lebron, and ultimately a championship, so they have some solace).

What do you think?

The Browns and there isn't a rational argument otherwise. Just look at the infamous Browns starting QB list since 1999. Derek Anderson (Panthers backup) is the best QB they've had since then.

 

It's like asking, "Is it better to live in your parents basement your entire life and never having friends or a girlfriend, or having great relationships, taking the good with the bad?"

      I’m gonna say it… I’m proud of Bryce.

      By ImfromClayton · Posted

      We don't have to tear down Dak to appreciate what Bryce did yesterday. Dak had 0 running game. If the cowboys were better, he'd be a legit MVP candidate if he keeps playing this way.  They did it with Ceedee last year, but they do a better job of anybody we play consistently of getting their best receiver off Jaycee.  Bryce was good too. If we just catch the ball that was intercepted, we probably win by 7+, and Bryce goes over 200 yards passing.  Biggest shift the last few weeks has been play calling. I thought Canales abandoned the run game way to early at times last year. This year he really seems to be sticking with it.  I still think Chuba is better at making 4 yards when there's nothing there, but Rico is better at making 30 yards when there's 6 there. I like the direction. Hopefully we can get Moton, Sanders and Coker back and really be dangerous. Our play action game is pretty deadly right now.  Unrelated: My favorite quality about Bryce right now is his ability to see the defensive hold and throw the ball there. He EXPOSES the officials when they don't call it. That one on Tetaroia yesterday late in the game was a bad miss on their part.

      This is a game the Panthers should win... just the sort of game they lose. The Panthers have a bad habit that goes back years of playing down to the competition's level only to mess around and lose the game. The Jets game should be taken very seriously! But I want to enjoy the fact that they beat the Cowboys for at least another day or so!
