Not one person in this thread is saying Rivera is the answer or he'll definitely take us to the playoffs next year.

Just saying that lol if you think Chip Kelly, or any coach, can take the mess of the browns and turn them into playoff contenders next year.

Josh Gordon

Joe Haden

Trent Richardson

Jabal Sherrod

and a few other decent players

That's all they have.

Haha.

Chuck Pagano/Bruce Arians and The Colts.

Don't tell me that team has more talent than us.

Uh

Two good WR, Two Good TEs, a young QB and a handful of vetran players and a passable defense.

Yeah i can say they do.

Not to mention this is a very emotionally charged team.

If Kelly can turn the Browns around, then he deserves to be the highest paid coach in NFL history.... I'm a native Ohioan and can tell you that the Browns have been horrible for a long, long time.

Me too... Browns have always been number one in my heart but number 32 in the program guide. Most people dont know the history of the Browns and at one time they were great...they were great again but in Baltimore, freakin Model....Anyway, college coaches dont translate well to the NFL, just like Heisman QBs dont translate either...If you do, you're in the slim minority.... Guess we'll see on both accounts...

We did in 2010. All we could muster was 6-10 the next year.

I give you that. By comparison though the Colts had enough foresight to hire both a new GM and Head Coach at the same time when they started over. Whereas we are..the Panthers. Let's keep Hurney another year!

Are the Panthers slowly becoming the Browns of the NFC?

not far off.

we've had as many winning seasons since '95 as the bengals, lions, rams, and redskins.

the only teams with less wins than us in that time frame are the browns, cards, and raiders.

the bills, chiefs, and jaguars have all had more winning seasons in that time frame, although the bills have only had one since 2000 and the jags have only had 2 since then.

we've gone as long as the dolphins without a winning season and the only teams to go longer without one are the rams, raiders, jaguars, browns, and bills.

not really great company we're with right now.

Oh boy.. You can not be serious.

Cam Newton and Luck are about the same level, I would honestly give Cam the edge.

Our running backs are way better and more proven than theirs.

Steve smith and Wayne are equals. Hilton is the only edge. I like LaFell and Murphy had been clutch a couple times.

Greg Olsen is better than their TEs. No argument. Barnidge isn't utilized enough but when he is, he catches the ball and makes a play.

Our defense is better than theirs. No doubt. The numbers don't lie.

And our offensive lines are about the same.

agreed, but i think they've had an easier schedule and they are kind of running on emotion. that tends to amplify things a bit. ref: chiefs beating us and the cowboys beating the bengals this past year.

that said, last year's record was understandable considering the situation rivera fell into. this year's record is inexcusable.

      ESPN's All Quarter Century Team 2000-2025

      The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter.

      Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.

      So where can I find out tailgating parking spots for the season?

      By toldozer · Posted

      I parked in this lot a few times. It would take over and hour to get out of that lot after games. Never again
