Predict the 2010 Season Record

and your an idiot.
Actually it's the inverse of that but as per the theme with some around here I'm not surprised you have the Steelers at the bottom of the division. If we're being truthful it's you lacking in the upstairs department seeing as Big Ben's suspension has been listed as CONDITIONAL since it was first announced yet you have him going the full 6 games. Secondly, last year a very Green Dennis Dixon nearly lead the Steelers to a victory against the Ravens. He's going to take majority snaps during the OTA's which will have him primed for the regular season. I'm not saying we'll go 4-0 but I could certainly see 2-2 and Ben will have the bye week leading in to week 6 to work some of the rust off. Add in our defense and the beefed up offensive line and I just don't see how we skate to a 6 win season. You act like Big Ben going down for 4 games is the scourge of the franchise. He's missed a few games here and there several times over a few seasons and it never kept us from winning at least 8 games. Sooo once again if we're being realistic you're just being delusional and a Browns fan. The latter of which is fine. The Steelers will certainly win more than 6 games and I wouldn't be surprised to see them contend for the division. I definitely think they at least get a wild card.

I definitely think they at least get a wild card.I agree, I don't see the Steelers winning only 6 games. More like 8. (and by the way, 8-8 can even be a division/wild card contending record. Look at last year at the end of the season. 3-4 teams that were only a game or so away from .500 were still in it till the end., including the 9-7 Steelers. Which means that even an 8-8 Browns could possibly contend for a wild card)

I think we all know it's a bit early for predictions- but when the schedule came out last week I had us at 9-6-1....by the time I finished about 5 22oz drafts, they were 13-2-1
Seriously though, the Browns need to protect CBS, winning at least 6 home games & make it an exciting place to play for the fans....playoffs this year is probably asking too much.

I don't disagree with your statement per-say because 8-8 is certainly possible if Pittsburgh can't get things going. However you also need to consider our defense is routinely in the top 10 and still finished in that fashion with Polamalu and Aaron Smith out. The Steelers only imploded after he and Aaron Smith went down but before hand they were 6-2 before the losing streak. All of their losses were also by 7 points or less. Yes not having Big Ben is going to be a big factor for the first 4 games. He's not getting 6 but as I mentioned above you need to factor in Dixon taking starter snaps through the OTA's, Troy back healthy and Aaron Smith plus the further maturation of the offensive line and the drafting of Pouncey. If Pittsburgh really does plan to return to "smash mouth football" even before Big Ben was suspended that just means more carries for Mendenhall and possibly Dwyer and the defense is still one of the best in the league. How far did the New York Jets go on a dominant defense and a smack you in the mouth run game? Mendenhall is going to be even more of a monster this year and Pouncey plays immediately. Pittsburgh is going to be a playoff team and that's without Ben for 4 games.
EDIT: Edited for accuracy.

Fair enough. I'm saying a 10 or 11 win season and a fight for the AFC North with the Rat birds. If Big Ben doesn't get suspended the Steelers addressed their most glaring weaknesses this off season. McFadden is back in the fold, immediate starter in Pouncey, OLB depth which coincides with a major special teams overhaul. One of the biggest problems last year.

And to back up the aging Harrison and Farrior etc. We also struggled with special teams with numerous teams. I also don't need to hear about Cribbs. I went to Kent State afterall. I was there when both he and Gates were still around. Worilds is Jason Gildon 2.0 but faster and stronger. Just be ready for relentless QB pressure, especially with Troy back and healthy.

Same prediction as every year.
16 and 0.
Superbowl champs.
Anything less it bad officiating.

Just hold your waaaad, now..
at best a 4 win season...3 is more likely
3-13 is the way I see it...Beat Chiefs, Panthers, and Bills....
The rest of that schedule is killer......
Not drafting any skilled positions high is gonna hurt real bad.....
Marginal RB's
below ...way below average WR's
nothing TE...
who's gonna score?????? those Defensive backs they drafted??
it's another long 3 and 13 season......sorry!!

hahah you're probably a troll.
Marginal RBs? Jerome Harrison is far from marginal, anyone who gets the 4th most rushing yards in a game, in the history of the NFL and breaks Jim Brown's franchise record for it, is far from "marginal". Hardesty looks like a solid tough runner, and then there's Hillis for some more depth.
I agree with you about the WRs, that is the weakest position right now, they should sign an FA WR, but I do like the potential of Mitchell(played in a run first offense with a scrambling QB).
Nothing TE?? You ever hear of that guy Benjamin Watson we signed? Very solid receiving as well as blocking TE, and then there's Evan Moore for depth.
The Browns are a FA WR signing away from having a winning record (T.O!!!!).

Jerome Harrison, had that (1) ...great game..can he have a great season this year...I hope so...but they need more in the backfield...If he goes down...who is there????...so the jury is still out on what he can bring...
Ben Watson...?????????40 year old Ben Watson...Wasn't he catching balls for Jim Plunkett back when? Go to a fantasy Draft and see how long it takes a Ben Watson to get drafted on a fantasy team....bring your sleeping bag...!
T.O???????..well how'd that work out in Buffalo??.....would be a nice addtion to a Ravens, Patriots, kind of team..but not in Cleveland...
I admire all the positive talk of wins this year...but really?...look at that schedule...I can only see 4 wins tops on that...
I think next year 2012, will be an 8 and 8 year...the slow climb will begin then.......
Looks like another year of yardwork at 1pm Sundays

Looks like another year of yardwork at 1pm Sundays
Jerome Harrison, had that (1) ...great game..can he have a great season this year...I hope so...but they need more in the backfield...If he goes down...who is there????...so the jury is still out on what he can bring...
Ben Watson...?????????40 year old Ben Watson...Wasn't he catching balls for Jim Plunkett back when? Go to a fantasy Draft and see how long it takes a Ben Watson to get drafted on a fantasy team....bring your sleeping bag...!
T.O???????..well how'd that work out in Buffalo??.....would be a nice addtion to a Ravens, Patriots, kind of team..but not in Cleveland...
I admire all the positive talk of wins this year...but really?...look at that schedule...I can only see 4 wins tops on that...
I think next year 2012, will be an 8 and 8 year...the slow climb will begin then.......

Finally a honest assessment and a realistic one. Believe me when I say this I want the AFC North to be the strongest division in football and it's damn close. I don't want the Browns to be a speed bump year after year save for your "franchise turn around victory" last season against the Steelers. It was bound to happen sooner or later after all these years. Anyway and for the real reason I'm posting in response to the above two posts is Jerome Harrison. He rushed for a bunch of yards in a few games. He's no different than Darrell Green of the Redskins at this current juncture and that's a fact. My suggestion is before anyone starts annointing him the next Barry Sanders he should probably put together a 16 game season of what he did towards the tail end of last season. He's a scat back that won't hold up if you ask me but I guess we'll see.
Oh and everyone needs to ask Montario how he's dealt with Worilds in the past or any RB for that matter. Supposedly he never allowed a rushing TD while being DE for the Hokies.
