I think we beat Cleveland

I know it is not popular right now, but I think we stand an excellent chance of beating Cleveland this week.

First we had a great day rushing with from Goodson who gives us two consecutive 100 yard rushing days. We will be going against a Cleveland team that ranks 21st against the run.

Our QB play was bad, but not as bad as I expected. I think Clausen will be back under center and I look for him to be accurate enough especially if we can actually run play action off of a decent running game.

I think this situation is tailor made for Fox Ball (I may not like it but it is what it is). I think we control the game with our run game which will allow us to play action pass which will help our QB and by controlling the clock allow the Defense (who have played decently) not to get gassed by the 3rd quarter.

I predict a Carolina victory (Car - 16 Cleveland - 10).

So we get win number 2, and that is straight from Nostra-dumbass, so take it for what it is worth. :)

Without reading your post, aside from the title, I don't agree and don't understand this line of thinking. I'll gladly eat crow if I'm wrong, but I doubt it.

Why? Because Cleveland's defense has bottled up some of the best offenses in the league this year. Our offense sucks against bad defenses and we're top 5 in the league in giveaways if I'm not mistaken.

If Colt plays, their offense has looked great with him in there. Even if they end up playing Seneca or Jake, they are still gonna look good against our defense.

So no... we won't beat Cleveland.

Doubt we hold them to 10, they put up 20 against the Jets and 34 against the Pats recently. Last 4 games have scored 20+ in each.

I will admit that I may be a big homer when it comes to this pick. I think this could be a big trap game for them. If we can just get some early success. I like our chances.

the Browns are 3-7 coming off 2 losses......I don't think this qualifies as a trap game.

Browns will beat us. They have actually been playing good football recently.

we will be lucky to score.... their D is pretty tight.

I will admit to not watching much of Cleveland games. Mainly because they are f'ing Cleveland but our defense is ranked 14th overall (I think) and I am pretty sure Cleveland is ranked 23 overall.

Stats mean nothing in the end, but that was what I was going by.

Duly noted... Browns lost some really close games and beat N.O. and N. E. This game will be a good boost in confidence for them...

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
