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...

      It's actually interesting you mention Richardson because I've seen it suggested here Bryce will have 500 or more rushing yards and 5-10 rushing touchdowns this year. And if big Anthony Richardson can get hurt carrying the rock what's that tell you about the practicality of thinking Bryce won't?

      I mean, I get why the media and some NFL and Carolina fans are saying that we don't have a real chance, but as many Huddlers should know, we won't know what we really have in this team until probably late September or early October at the earliest. And I'm not trying to be a homer, I'm just looking at things historically. Obviously I'm also looking at Bryce's "palatable" improvement the last half of last season (including being the catalyst for hanging with and nearly beating the Super Bowl participants), and the new additions that we've acquired overall. I'm also looking at the beginnings of a culture change--even if perceptibly subtle--to some degree indeed may take a foothold if things start falling the right way. But, overall, I'm still cognizant of the realization that things could just go south and that perhaps that Bryce could revert and flop, or that D & D (Dan and Dave) are not the answer, but I still am not ready to say "we're far away." Hell we could be close, albeit with growing pains, but even if we're on the course to bring legit in 2026, then guys like Ramsey would be welcome additions this season. That's just my take on it. I don't think we'll know that we're far away until some point in the season. If we can compete in the South...who knows?

      You guys remember when the narrative on here was that Bryce would be chronically injured in the NFL due to his size and Anthony Richardson would be super durable due to his? You remember when the narrative was that Bryce was physically incapable of throwing a ball further than 20 yards in the NFL? You remember “I’ll stop complaining when he throws for more than 200 yards and looks like an NFL quarterback”? You remember when 60 sacks was his fault and not the offensive line, slow WRs, and terrible scheme? Pepperidge Farm remembers. It will always be something for some people. Whatever insanity they come up with will be quickly dropped to move on to the next thing. Bryce could have an MVP Super Bowl winning season and they would complain that we can’t run the tush push with him. It will always be something.
