Something Strange Is Happening
-
I am 42 years old, and have been a Browns fan since I was a young kid. I have always lived, breathed and thought, about nothing but the Browns. Back in the 90's I paid an exorbitant amount of money to have the Cleveland Browns news paper delivered to my SoCal home via express mail, so I would have the paper before the next game............Hell, I don't have to tell any of you, you all get it too.
Up until last Sunday, I have seen every play, of every game since 1980. Most times live, some times vcr'd, and now Tivo'd, but I watch every play for the good or the bad. Now that the NFL Network shows all of the pre-season games, I even watch those too.
This last Sunday however, I found myself out in the garage before half time, and I turned on the Niners/Texans game when I came back in, and I helped my daughter with her homework while I watched the second half of that game. The weird thing is, I didn't find myself doing it on purpose, and I didn't even think about the Browns game, much less, turn the channel to watch it...................The first time since I was 13 that I didn't see the entire game, and I couldn't care less.
This is not one of those "I hate this team, I'm done forever" threads, where we all say "Don't let the door hit you in the ass". Actually, I don't know what it is. It's like the switch in my brain has been dimmed down, and it has only happened this season. I really don't like Mangini, never have , never will. I also can't stand either QB, our OC and just the overall "feel" our team has. I'm used to losing, just like you all, but man something is just different.
To be totally honest, I have secretly wished many, many times, that my "Browns switch" would turn off..........The Drive, the Fumble, Red Right 88, the Move; none of those catastrophes dimmed my switch, much less turned it off, but Mangini and his band of losers have seemed to have done something I, my wife and my friends, thought totally undo-able.
I'm not sure if I will watch this week, and the weird thing is, I don't really care??? Kind of sad in a way, and it may go away................and it may not.

D Bone, I know right where you're coming from. For me, they're like a drug I can't kick. As much as I try, I can't totally break free. If I don't watch, I listen. If I can't listen, I find every way to get an update.
I think one of the things that makes me keep the faith is knowing that as soon as I throw in the towel, they'll turn it around. That I am certain of. There's another team with a fanbase of complete bandwagon jumpers out there that makes me sick and if I jumped back on when the turnaround came, I'd be no better than them.
Just hang in there brother. The law of averages has GOT to win out at some point, right?
BTW, is that Jennie Finch? Smokin!

It's called apathy.....I think most of us have reached or are close to reaching that point. The really bad thing is....I'm not sure it is reversible.

I don't want to sound like a dick, but I really don't understand the Mangini hate and the expectations here.
We got rid of head cases Winslow and Edwards, were you guys expecting a Pro Bowl TE & WR in exchange for two malcontents? Edwards was gone after this season anyway and Winslow doesn't even practice between games because his knees were so shot. Those were our "SUPER STARS" that Mangini inherited.
Most will admit that adding a QB to a shit team will just get the guy killed. Solidifying the O-line first is the right step. Adding Mack next to Steinbach & Thomas was a good fit.
We'll need receivers, and we have two rookies gaining experience at the position right now, and into a quarter way through this season.
I think Mangini is honestly trying to use Cribbs, without gassing him and diminishing the one thing we know the guy does best and that's his Special Team contribution.
Brady Quinn is helping us more by not playing him than playing him, with incentives kicking in making him un-tradable and unaffordable. Mangini and the current staff aren't responsible for these contracts that are remaining. Does anyone honestly feel that Quinn has just been sub-par in three years of meetings, QB camps, practices, preseason games and his first 5 games, but then is gonna take the league by storm with another chance? Have you EVER seen a QB who resembles a body-builder EVER take over this league ... any team?
On the defensive side of the ball, I think he under-estimated how bad the talent was here. But you can't fix everything in one season.
This Draft we have 11 picks that we can't get through this first year growing pain fast enough to get to.
Is the next coach that comes in going to take what we have here and reach the playoffs with them? Will he do better with the 11 draft picks than what Mangini will do? Or will he be another Crennel and not even play the draft picks?
We will see Quinn again, we will hopefully see the young receivers grow. Mack is getting gelled with the line. Cribbs will get a contract that fits both the team and himself. Next season we will add some defensive play makers and new blood at QB & RB.
You gotta believe we are working on things offensively, such as teaching the receivers how to read coverage and adjust on the fly, and we are basically bringing along two QB's in this department too, plus a new OC. This shit don't just come together over night. Set-backs are expected, bright spots should emerge. Ya gotta watch the second half of the season unfold, hoping we can stay healthy and learn to play through an entire season.
I'm just not sure what else Mangini can do, his pieces aren't on roster yet and he's trying to gain those pieces who he believes may be here for at the least the next three years, some experience.
This Mangini bashing is so similar to the Belichick bashing that took place here in the early 90's that it is mind-boggling that the local media and fans learned nothing from that fiasco. Let's face it guys, we no nothing about modern NFL coaching, or QB play .... nothing.
-
i agree with you to some extent stan, but the real frustration lies beneath all that. for me, frustration with mangini starts with the draft. he had 3 2nd round picks and took not one, but TWO wide receivers: a move that had most people scratching their heads. he also passed on rey maluaga which i think we can all agree we missed out on. here is the biggie from the draft: he traded our prime pick for peanuts to the jets. he got his former crappy players who are useless here. he also continues to get worthless players from the jets and will probably waste the draft picks we got for the trades of our skill players.
but what does he do with those players he traded for? he doesn't even play them so that they can learn a few things. get those rookies in their so that THEY can get their ass's kicked and not our "veterans."
he came in here with this "legend" persona and he has been anything but so far. he has been horrible. the players hate him, nobody wants to listen to him and agents are telling their clients to stay away from the browns because of him. in short: he is the biggest a-hole in football. he has nothing to base this persona on and needs to realize he's not his mentor.
here is the biggest reason why people rate mangini: he handled the qb situation totally wrong. he said he would stick with one guy and he pulled brady after 2.5 games. i am not saying that brady didn't play bad, but he went against his word. since then, da has done NOTHING to deserve to be the starting qb yet he refuses to pull him. he is one of the most hypocritical people in the nfl today.
you're right stan, he needed to make the team the way he wanted it but the way he wants the team is terrible. he is setting us up for more consistent failure over the next 5 years. he has no idea how to motivate, talk to or even coach players. jim zorn thinks mangini is an idiot.
although it may not be mangini's fault that the players he inherited are no good, it is certainly his fault that they are still playing. although i am happy we got 11 draft picks this year, i am not too optimistic of how those picks will turn out.

Atenears, I agree on all counts.
The browns are right now close to a demolition/rebuild project. They only have some of the pillars in place toward being a good team. Those pillars are Thomas, Steinbach, Mack, Rogers. Some of the other pieces of the foundation are strong enough to be used such as Rubin, DQ, Wimbley ?, Robo, MoMass.
The only thing we can do is to take enjoyment from watching the young players improve and seeing more pieces added to the foundation. It sucks being at the bottom but we will actually be able to watch the team being built in a way that will last.
I'm expecting improvement by the last four home games. And next year we should see significant improvement particularly if we can get better QB play. The following year we should be tough for anyone to beat.
-
I agree Stan.
Savage was a flim flam man who was interested in self promotion over anything else.
The key for Mangini will be this years draft and free agent period.
Mangini had crap all over the board and we just haven't been able to compete in the match-ups except in a few areas.
Mangini's key player this year is Vienuke...that guy has to bill out as a solid player over the next year or two. Time will tell what happens there, and time will tell if he and Kokinis have a clue and continue to build a offensive line that gives us a chance to compete on offense or they follow in the flim flam, please the goofy ra-ra fans mold of the last several regimes and start bringing in "skill" players for the offense...To me, the real skill players are the linemen...I bet Joe Thomas would be a better runner than AP would be a LT.
The only move by Mangini I might question is Dabol, but even then, you can't tell much with him....it's like sending him to take the hill with troops armed with clubs against a force armed with shotguns. It's impossible to call plays when the line is blown up snap after snap.....you can't run trick play after trick play.

who wants to come here? agents are telling their clients not to sign with us. how well do you expect us to do in free agency? we are a bad team who is cheap to boot. we may not get a single signing from someone who will start.

that is not absolutely true. In some ways the NFL free agency is like the farmers market where one needs to "haggle" and find the best deal. And even if we are the absolute worst team in NFL it sure beats playing in Arena football. We will find free agents, but we just need the negotiating acumen. This could be a growing pain with the GM/coach.

The draft frustrates you loking back why?..they passed on sanchez?...i am very thrilled with the production of Mack...how about you? ...Two WR was a bit odd...but now it proves they knew Braylon was gone and most likely planned on trading him earlier if it werent for stallworths issues... now looking back thank goodness they did! And you go on to say he doesnt play the rookies..well mack has been strater from day 1 ..mass came on afer the first couple of games...now robiskie is working in...also maiva started (and looked awful) last week...veukene is the only one that has not seen the field...im not sure whats up with francies either...but he was a late rounder
its hard to beleive something will go right when they draft 11 new guys..also could we be playes in free agency a little?...something has to go right eventually...
hopefully berry or suh are available when we are on the clock...and then they turn elite and fast

I missed the Mangini bashing in this thread. Personally, I'm not ready to give up on Mangini. Just because every idiot who writes an article or gets behind a microphone has jumped on the "Mangini sucks!" bandwagon, doesn't mean crap to me. Anyone who is bitching about Quinn not getting a fair chance, and wants to fire Mangini is a hypocrite. I would give Mangini 2 full seasons to do something positive. If we are 3 - 13 after the 2010 season.....let's fire his ass.

My only frustration is that I expected to see an occasional spark that would indicate there's some learning going on, and general gradual improvement. I've seen neither. After the first game of the season, I was asked how many games I thought the Browns would win this year. I said, "none." I was serious. So my expectations were extremely low and I've not been particularly surprised by the miserable showing.

We've exceeded your expectations ... we doubled Buffalo's score in that beat-down.

Is it just me, or would anyone else at least feel better about the season if they went ahead and gave Cribbs the contract he deserves....

The key for Mangini will be this years draft and free agent period.
who wants to come here? agents are telling their clients not to sign with us. how well do you expect us to do in free agency? we are a bad team who is cheap to boot. we may not get a single signing from someone who will start.

So we have been told, but I agree to an extent....Cleveland has never been the garden spot on every free agents list of places they would like to play....since FA became a part of the game, Cleveland has always pretty much sucked, and the weather always has.
In the end, if the money is right and the opportunity is there, players will come here.

why would they want to give us something to cheer about?

Players like Terrel Owens, etc,
want to be in the big city limelight. That will always happen a lot...
it's the Yankees syndrome.
But, the players who love the GAME, and respect the coach and the history,
will come here.
