I mean it’s the browns…the dysfunction….the drama…their back up QB who is straight trash…at home…and we have their outcast who wants revenge

it literally won’t get any easier than this for the entire rest of the year, unless we lose, I wouldn’t put any stock in the outcome

I don't have a problem using CMC as the primary back, but you don't need to risk injury in situations where we are just trying to run out the clock.  It's just stupid.

Agree unless you need to run out the clock. If two first downs seal the win that is as important as a game winning score.

It will get easier but it's still a good time to have them on the schedule. They are talented, although they should be susceptible against the run as the DTs aren't special and only JOK is an NFL quality LB.

I expect them to play 2 QBs. Dobbs with get a handful of plays in which he will mostly run with the ball. Just a hunch to try to mix things up with a non-starter at QB.

I am.

I'm taking the season off though so this week is entertaining for me even though I won't be watching the game. I can't watch the Browns and root for them so I'm just not going to watch. So I'm a casual fan this year and just take rooting interest in players like Baker and Hollywood. Then next year I'll see where my head is and go from there. Kinda hoping Watson just goes away somehow and I can get back to normal but it seems unlikely.

I mean, Jacoby is a career 60% passer with 36 TDs vs 17 INTs.  

I wouldn’t call him straight trash.  He a veteran QB on a team that doesn’t need much from the QB ideally. 

I’d favor the Browns on a neutral field  week 1 and that is what the line suggests.  Seems about right. 

I don’t view this as the easiest game on the schedule.   Not the best matchup IMO.   Which is what football generally is.

Massage board away.

 

Just trying to recall if I've ever seen the Browns in a SB... Guess you could live vicariously as a Ravens fan seeing as they are the OG Browns.

Yeah, F the Ravens. I had to go 4 years without a team and just watched my favorite Ohio State players on Sundays like Eddie George and Joey Galloway.

I'm in a similar place now not wanting to root for a sexual predator at QB. So I'll root for Baker and Ohio State players when I watch games but I won't watch the Browns games because I don't want to go to a place that I can't turn back from in case I ever get the opportunity to turn back.

I think Baker will play well if the offensive scheme is smart. I'm not real confident in that since he hasn't been there long and coaches usually make players adapt to their system and don't adapt their system to suit their QB but I guess we'll see.

If you can't count on your RB2 to get you a couple of first downs then you don't need him on the depth chart.

Yeah, I expect our run D to be better but for our pass rush to take a step back.

I was thinking about this today, and I agree. I think we will still be able to pressure the QB at times, but not as well as last year. I will trade that for better rush D, though.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      By Swaggasaurus · Posted

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
