    Run Defense - 15th

  • We won't win more than 12 games. That's my prediction and i'm sticking to it.

  • My expectation for the browns is 6-10 because theres still a lot of loose ends and a lot of melding and molding to be done however teams wont be so overjoyed to play this club anymore and every game should be a good one effort and development wise...

    that would be very disappointing.

  • I think 7-9 or 8-8. Stick with the formula of tough defense and running the ball. We should at least split the series with Pittsburgh and Cincinnati. Games like Atlanta, Buffalo, Jacksonville, Tampa Bay, Kansas City, Miami, and Carolina are very winnable for us if Rob Ryan has us going like last year on defense and the running game keeps rolling behind Harrison, Hardesty, Hillis, and Cribbs.

  • The Browns WILL have a winning record. At least 9-7. 10-6 if they get out of the gate early. (I say this every year, but maybe this year,

    it isn't so far fetched.... @@)

  • Steelers 11-5 and win the divison. (We win key divison games to give us divison without a geat record)

    Browns go 5-11 but play and look significantly better than last year.

  • Too early for any predictions. Have to wait and see who the starting QB is, any injuries during training camp/pre-season. I'll wait until August or early September.

    Starting QB is Jake. Holmgren has said that countless times.

    and your an idiot.

  • I think a 7 - 9 or 8 - 8 record. I think we improve a lot but find it hard to get into the playoffs.

    You picked us to win 7 times on the schedule. πŸ™‚

  • somewhere around/between 7-9 and 9-7

  • At the end of last season I made a bet with a Bengals fan who didn't believe that the Browns can turn things around in one season. Twenty dollars that the Browns will finish 7-9 or better. I think the bet is a lock for me. We will be at least 4-3 going into the bye week. I am not worried about this years team. The question for me is can we sneak out a wildcard spot or not. I think we will finish 9-7. I also believe that the Steelers will indeed finish in last place in the division and coach Tomlin will get fired at the end of the season. And I don't even dislike the Steelers like most Browns fans on this board. I just hope we beat them every time we play them.

    Here we go Brownies, Here we go!!!

    heheheh true that ... good catch.

  • @TB - Win

    VS KC - Win

    @ BAL - Lose

    VS CIN - Win

    VS ATL - Lose

    @ PIT - Win

    @ NO - Lose

    VS NE - Lose

    VS NYJ - Lose

    @ JAC - Win

    VS CAR - Win

    @ MIA - Lose

    @ BUF - Win

    @ CIN - Lose

    VS BAL - Win

    VS PIT - Lose

    8-8.

    The NO, NE, NYJ is a brutal stretch. Some of those games could go either way (MIA, ATL, CAR) and we could potentially get swept by Baltimore but in turn sweep Cinci or Pitt. There's a lot that can go right for this team early on because there won't be any film on this team for a few weeks. If Delhomme plays decent and we play good defense, there's no reason that record can't sit at 8-8 or 9-7. 10-6 is a stretch but not impossible. 7-9 is also an improvement over last year. We shall see.

  • I think as of right now 7-9 is going to be about right, with 8-8 or 9-7 not out of the question. I'm not as sold on the Ravens as a lot of people are. They did have a good draft and have play makers now, but I want to see that team play together for a while. As was stated, that NO NE and Jets stretch is brutal. If we could eek out the Jets that'd be a successful three game stretch. Mark my words, the Jets are another team not as good as they look on paper. There's too many strong personalities on that team now and IMO they will not mesh together. We shall see though.

  • Cowher and the Steelers proved you can go to the Super Bowl in 3 years from essentially scratch.

    8-8 is my prediction, based upon where the team should be in year two and not based upon new additions, moves etc.

    here's what i normally expect a team can realistically accomplish under good leadership and management, which we have so there should be no reason why not.

    year 1) 4-12

    year 2) 7-9

    year 3) 10-6 or better

    year 4) perennial playoffs!

    Browns:

    year 1) 5-11

    year 2) 8-8 ?

    the history between our teams will make these games interesting to the players and will make them closer games than i would have otherwise expected.

    Fujita and Jake bring insight to the NO game, the Mangini/Belicheck connection could make the NE game a barnburner (not to mention EM has a good record against them), and the Jets go without saying with EM's history, 1/4th our team former Jets, BE, and the young Sanchez to torment...

    if i were the players i would dread that stretch because of all the preparation necessary that will take place--playing should be the easy part here. i don't count us out of a single one of those three, especially when you have a ton of players known for their heart and digging deep.
