Oh no, we don't have a superstar
-
Cribbs, Thomas, Steinbach, Mack, Harrison, Rogers and Jackson are pretty damn good players in my book.
No one is expecting a Super Bowl with THIS group, however, the pieces they have in place at key positions (LT and NT) are some of the best in the business, some very promising young talent at center and WR.
Go look at the 20000 Pats roster. There are a few good players on there (their defensive line was awful ), but look at the roster. It doesn't look like anything special to me. A few very good players at some key positions and they built around those.
I liked your post and I wasn't really arguing against most of your points (not sure how it really related to the context of my post, and what it was in response to).
The only guys in that first list that I see as "core players" you can build a team around are Thomas and Rogers. Don't get me wrong, I like the other guys, but you got a ST specialist and some average guys there. W/ better talent around them, I am sure they could be very good. But I can't make them out to be more than they are, which is NFL starters.
It's a little early to say any of the young WR are promising young talent. That right now is still only hope. One good game by MoMass is exactly that, one good game. Andre' Davis had a couple of those.
2000 Pats roster had a good number of core guys that would also emerge as stars. But again, CLE isn't NE and EM is not BB. It may all work out, but it is kind of asking for lighting to strike twice. As I said earlier, how many teams have had the success NE had w/ that approach?
I am hoping it works in CLE, but it's far from a sure thing.

In hindsight, Bill Belichick is a Hall of Fame head coach.
Nine years ago, he was basically Eric Mangini with a little more experience as an assistant.
I know people are tired of comparisons and I don't personally think Mangini will be Belichick in terms of success, but like young players, young coaches progress as they get older. I don't hate Mangini and I think he is much more "there" than RAC was.
As far as the MoMass reference. My opinion differs a little from yours based on what I have been told. Everything that I was told about MoMass was on display Sunday. He needs to do it consistently, yes, but I am not one to get too high on a young player (with the exception of Joe Thomas) without having a firm opinion of his talent and I TRULY think MoMass develops into a reliable #1.
Time will tell of course, but the way everyone is still flipping out on the guy is insane. They are buying into this media hype bullcrap.

We are not the New England Patriots and I am sick and tired of us trying to be the Patriots, let us be the Cleveland Browns
Sony...come on. We have known all along that Mangini's style is patterned after his mentor (duh). So, if we mimic their path to success, what does it matter as long as it works.
I, for one, love the 'no superstar' approach. It went 14-0 for the Dolphins (remember, no name defense, not a single HOF player on it) and it worked pretty good for NE on offense for years (looking at what happened last year I am even MORE convinced Tom Brady is a product of a system).
So, if you want to call it copy cat...go ahead...but this IS a copy cat league.

How often does that copy cat work out? Not a lot.
The 1972 Dolphins also this had this guy on D, Buonticonti, Nick (LB in HOF). It also isn't 1972 anymore, of the 80's for that matter.
I agree with you that Brady might be a product of the system, though I don't fully buy that.
I like the no superstar approach as much as you might, but it doesnt' mean it really works. I go back to the last 10 years and the only team that kind of worked for is NE.

OMG I just looked up all of Massoquois 40 times and they're HORRENDOUS
He has some 4.7's some 4.6's and one 4.5 He is Waaaaay slower than Robiskie
Jerry Rice didn't have very good 40 YD times.
Jerry Rice didn't have very good 40 YD times.
Thats exactly my point, Robiskie could be the best wideout we have.
Im not even an OSU fan, but im sick of people calling him slow, and the fact that he wont stretch the field. Both of which are very untrue.
People are saying MM will stretch the field and Robiskie wont, yet he's slower and not as big as Robiskie, doesnt make sense
thats all im trying to point out
(plus im an Anquan Boldin fan and he ran a 4.72)

John, we have tried the Patriot way with RAC and it did not work and now we are trying it again and its not going to work because there is only 1 Billy B and Eric Mangini or none of the other Belichek former assistants is making anybody think they are the next Belichek.
The Pittsburgh Steelers hae been as successful as the Patriots yet I don't see anyone trying to be like the Steelers which amazes me
Tell me why nobody wants to be like the Colts, Titans, Giants or Eagles who like the Steelers I would be trying to copy

Dude, Robiske is as good as he will ever be and he was not a dominant receiver at Ohio State another product of people on this board overrating Ohio State players, where is Antione Pittman now? out of the league and we had posters who wanted the Browns to draft this guy
Robiske can't get separation against NFL corners thats why he is not playing, I attended practice many days and saw this with my own eyes not reading a newspaper

IF that line about Brady is true, BB would be really wise to trade him for a few first rounders here soon and get some pieces for the future.
It would be the Gretzky deal of our time.

No, we didn't really...because RAC was saddled with Savage who didn't necessarily give him the players he wanted. The overall dysfunction between Savage and RAC easily overwhelmed any attempt by RAC to do the NE way. Just look at some of the draft picks made by Savage and ask yourself if NE would ever have done that.
BQ is prime example. NE would NEVER have given up a 1st the next year to get a player. NEVER!!!

So...Mangini is listening to this board (and other OSU homer boards) to make draft decisions?
Remember, Robiskie was drafted at #36. It seems SOMEONE thinks he is
A ) Pretty good now
B ) Shows that he can improve
Teams won't draft someone at #36 who they think is as good as he'll ever be. He hasn't even hit his physcial peak yet.

To be fair, it's a bit hard to be dominate at WR when you have Boeckman and Pryor throwing passes to you for the 2 years you were a starter.

You didn't address my point, did you?
How can Robiskie be a product of 'over hyping' by this board. Are you suggesting that coaches are getting their drafting advice from fan boards?
We'll never know he sucks until he plays, will we?
Frankly, I'm not expecting him to be that good as it takes most receivers a couple of years to get it together and become really productive.
But, this being CLE Browns fans, if he doesn't go out and put up Moss like numbers, he'll be a 'bust'. Same thing with Massaquoi. When he has a bad game, people will be declaring him a bust just like they declare him the 'savior' now.

Every name on those teams (save for Polamaulu) is a household name now because of the rings they won when nobody knew their names. Even Cassel had an excellent year in that system last year and is now, as I stated months ago, doing an excellent Scott Mitchell impression. Also, look at the players that these two dynasties let go, they rarely amount to squat anywhere else in the league.
I'm not saying talent doesn't help but nomatter who is on the field, if the coach can get them to do their job on every play, you win WAAAAAAAAAY more than you lose. And you can play with anybody in the league. on any Sunday.

No I am not saying that the Browns draft players based on what this board says, what I am saying is that the hype at draft time was that Robiske was the most NFL ready receiver the same thing which was said about Brady Quinn and we see how that has turned out.
I have seen enough of robiske in practice and I'm sure the coaches saw the exact things I did that Robiske has a problem geting separation which is why he is not seeing the field and why I made the statement that Robiske may be as good as he will ever be, Robiske has been play receiver I'm sure since high school and he can't beat out a ex college QB now NFL specials teamer and a journeyman receiver in Fuerry, what does that tell you? It tells me that Robiske is not very good and we wasted another draft selection, and looking at this years draft by Mangini I'm not sure we did all that well.
The guy was a 2nd round pick and should be contributing, everyone said MoMass was a project and would take a year to maybe develop and yet he looks far more polished as a NFL receiver than Robiske does, I hope I am wrong but there was nothing my eyes saw in training camp from Robiske that has me thinking we have something special.
Stan and a few other people attended training camp maybe you can get there opinion of Robiske and what they saw.

Man you have nailed it 100%
Have you noticed that every linebacker that the Steelers add to there lineup steps in and never misses a beat and yet every Steeler linebacker who leaves the Steelers with the exception of Joey Porter when they leave they never have the same productivity they had with the Steelers, its all about the system.
Some coaches put in a system based on the players they have and you have other coaches who insist on playing there system even if you don't have the players for there system.
Example, The Browns don't have the players to run a attacking 3-4 defense yet they insist on playing a 3-4 because thats Mangini's system, we don't have the linebackers for the 3-4 inside or outside linebackers and Shaun Rogers would be more effective playing a one gap defensive tackle position, Eric Wright would be a better cornerback playing press coverage than zone we have the wrong players trying to play a system that Mangini wants

That was all well and good and I don't disagree with most of it (except possibly the household name part. if you survey'd people on the street, and even some fans of PIT, I bet most would be hard pressed to name anyone on the OL, DL, CBs, or all 4 LBds).
Most guys PIT or NE let go are generally on the decline. NE also brings in vets that already made a name for themselves before coming there, such as Moss, Seau, Harrison, Welker.
None of this still points out a team in the last 10 years where following the blue print of what BB did in NE 10 years agao and has had success.
And of course if you get the players to do their job on every play you will win more than you lose. That isn't exactly a new notion in football, or any sport for that matter. As to playing w/ anyone on any Sunday w/ no stars (maybe a Sunday here and there), you'd be hard pressed to find a single example team that has done that in the last 20+ years.
