Can the Browns be the team to make a comeback in 2010?
-
The Bengals are still the Bungles. I actually see Marvin Lewis giving up saying "f*** this" and quitting before he gets fired. Too much drama on that team, and it's ashame for them, because they do have some talent.
Nah it's not a shame. First and foremost that fan base is easily the most annoying I've ever encountered. Well it's a tie between the Bengals and the diehard browns fans that were at every game Sunday at Buffalo Wild Wings in downtown kent. It was a group of social outcasts for sure with one vocal leader. The white haired gremlin if you will and the entire time and in a raspy voice he'd yell about Joey Porter getting shot in the a$$ anytime the Steelers did anything positive or for him negative. He was doing this even when Porter had moved on to the Dolphins. Either way Bengal fans are much worse because they're delusions of grandeur are astronomical, at least most Browns fans have come to grips with the franchise rebuilding. In Bengal land they're team is preordained. Add in the fact that they routinely take on the headcases and Palmer cries more than he throws TD's. It's a recipe for heartache. I do like Chad Johnson but he's the token. I'd take him on the Steelers in a New York minute.

He is good, but I think he'd be 100 times better if he would shut his pie hole, and play the game. Paul Brown always said "act like you've been there." More players need to act that way IMO. I don't see many Bengals fans. Seems like the Browns and Steelers have the larger and more dedicated fanbases in our division. Yeah, us Browns fans realize we're rebuilding. Given the way the NFL is set up, a team can improve drastically within a years time. Because of who we hired, I'm willing to give them time to put it all together. We need continuity, but I don't want the Bengals type of continuity where they don't make any changes. All though I have to think Marvin Lewis may be better off with a different team under different circumstances. Who knows?
I don't go to bars too often to watch football games. I worked in bars and clubs as a DJ for many years. Too much drama, and too many amateurs who can't handle their alcohol and shouldn't be drinking anyway. It's cheaper to watch from the confines of my couch.
Plus it's not like I'm gonna get thrown out of my own house for cussing at the tv. Though my wife has told me to go outside to cool off and smoke a cigarette. Especially after we blew a game against you guys a few years back. I went into the hallway and started kicking all of the shoes, and damn near put my fist through the door to the garage. Of course, I had a couple in me.

Yea, though the Browns will still probably be predicted to come in last, this division is no doubt in my mind going to have much more parity than it has had in a long time. People seem to forget that it is The Bengals who are defending Division champions. Baltimore is expected to be tough again. Pittsburgh is not expected to fall off much, and the Browns should be much improve notwithstanding. It will definitely be a rough and tumble season.
Although we all know what Cincy is going to do. They play well once every 5 years and then half the team gets arrested and Marvin Lewis is on the verge of getting fired. He'll have that stupid look on his face in no time. Carson Palmer will be crying and Cedric Benson will be bringing guns to practice.

Are they an inconsistent team? Sure, but that inconsistency may say that they have another good year rather than the predictable flop.

Braylon looking forward about his trip to Cleveland…..
Posted by Randy Ward on June 24th, 2010 in News
Fromprofootballtalk.com.com
Per Carlos Monarrez of the Detroit Free Press, Edwards looks forward to his November 7 return to Michigan. “I’m excited to play back home,” Edwards recently said. “It’ll be fun because I have so much family here that supports me. So I can’t wait for them to get a chance to come to the game.” The next week, he returns to his adopted home. “Seven days later is the game I’m worried about,” Edwards said. “We go to Cleveland. You know I’ve got a little chip on my shoulder the size of the golden nugget. So I can’t wait to go out there.”

Oh Boo Hoo Braylon. "WAAHHHHHHH NOBODY LIKES ME BECAUSE I PLAYED FOR MICHIGAN!" No, nobody liked you, because you were a cocky SOB, and couldn't catch the damn ball! Who cares once you get into the NFL what college you came from? As long as you produce. Even though we're weak at WR, I'm glad that he is gone. Nothing but a prima donna. You know if he drops one here the place is going to go bananas. Hell, I may have to get tickets to that game, because it is probably going to be a circus atmosphere.

i can just imagine what kind of anti-be signs will be showcased in cbs during the jets game. and yes, if be drops a pass it will cause a thunderous cheer from browns fans.

No seriously Braylon had a good year, and yes he even made the Pro Bowl, but most Browns fans hated him because he went to Michigan. To even further prove my point, everyone loved the Robiskie pick...why? because he was a Suckeye. Now all I have to hear about is how he's going to have this amazing break out season, when he had what 10 catches last year and didn't dress for most games. Same browns fans that wanted Troy Smith and Ted Ginn...why? a 2nd/3rd string qb and a return man? what good would they do? Same browns fans wanted Tressel to be hired as a coach. Cleveland fans root for Cleveland teams, not schools in Columbus

i strongly disagree with your statement. MOST browns/osu fans are not guilty of the things that you're claiming. i think there's only a small percent of browns fans that get caught up into wanting to draft osu players. and most people don't hate be just because he played for michigan. be's big mouth, diva like ways and lack of proffessionalism made people dislike him. plus be was more concerned with non-football related things like modelling and he was a spoiled brat who was undsciplined and was constantly disobedient to his coaches. his dropsies were a direct result of him not focusing on what the browns were paying him for. he MADE browns fans as a whole dislike him and gave the small percent of browns fans (who had a grudge against him for playing for michigan) a reason to act on their hate. as far as wanting tressell for a coach, very few browns fans wanted that hire.
you seem like a cool dude and i agree with you the majority of the time, but it sounds like you have something against osu fans. my guess is that you know or know of some osu fans (who also happen to be browns fans) that probably act high and mighty (as an osu fan) and you're judging all of us based on that.
with any winning orginization, you're going to have snobby, stuck up fans. just look at how the steeler trolls act on here. arrogant, entitled and they think being a fan of a winning team makes them superior in life and makes their opinions more credible than others. it's sad, but true.

Well this is one Browns fan that didn't hate him because he went to Michigan. I hate... sorry.... strongly dislike him, because he was a drama queen, and dropped balls. I like Ohio State, and all, but once you leave college, and if you're not wearing the orange and brown, then I don't care!!!!! Perfect example... Santonio Holmes. Once he became a Steeler, sorry you're now the "enemy." As for Robiskie I think he'll come along. From what I understand he had a rough first year at OSU.

No, I think you are wrong about this. Braylon going to Michigan had nothing to do with things. It was his performance, plaing an simple, plus a bit of a prima donna attitude.
On Robiskie. I don't know that I loved that pick. Sure I like a Buckeye player, and I certainly want to see him do well as a Brown, but if he sucks and can't get the job done, then he can leave by the same door that Braylon walked through on his way out of here.

This post might be a bit late but it did get my attention...
First & foremost, I don't give a hoot what Robo has to say..To me his opinion means zilch..
Reading from the beginning of this thread, Robo brought up the Steelers then he/she/it goes on in volumes tryin to defend or pump up his team...
The topic of this thread is can the Browns be this years comeback team---what the freakin' hell has that got to do with the Steelers other than the fact that we play them twice this year?????
Robo you're just trolling to start a discussion that includes your beloved Steelers---take it to the black and gold site...
I've been a member of the Browns Board since 2005 and have seen posters like you come and go... Do us all a favor and go....
Peace

You're easily one of the least intelligent posters on this message board. Seriously. I brought up the Steelers ONLY after someone commented on this season being as good as any for the Browns to sweep the Steelers. I did not bring up the Steelers. Are you capable of reading? or at least putting together your thoughts in to one cohesive paragraph or two? or are we going to be forced to read your "bullet points" and then your classic sign off "PEACE T.Dawg" lol. Plenty of posters have conceded they don't mind my occasional post because I'm not "trolling" but rather posting intelligently and providing a different perspective. I'm only here for inter-division news and some debate. If you don't like it don't read it and if you're going to disagree in the future at least make some sort of effort to sound like you aren't a high functioning autistic.

Sorry Robo, guess I should have been more specific----go screw yourself...From the least most intelligent poster on this message board.. and you know where you can shove your "bullet point"

You ramble man and then jump on your soapbox. Once again I didn't bring up the Steelers and more than a few more established members here don't mind that I contribute from time to time. You're nothing more than a cheerleader that is completely oblivious to the rest of the NFL.

Oops,just been informed that Robo is a regular and the most important poster on this board... sorry I'm rambling?????
So I guess I'll just cheerlead---pork chop, pork chop, greasy, greasy greasy..
robo is the best poster, easy, easy, easy......
Now asswipe, explain to me how I am completely oblivous to the rest of the NFL....
I'm waiting troll, bring it on....

I'm saying that you live only on this message board and you cheer lead. I'm not on this board to be liked and I post on occasion Steeler related or not.. I'm not here to rub this or that in the face or faces of the Browns fan base but do on occasion take issue as I did in this thread. I only posted about the Steelers after the Steelers were mentioned. The discussion never got heated and I wasn't slinging insults. You then role in here like "Capt. Save-a-hoe" and start posting your incoherent B.s. I know my division and can name the starters across the board for all teams in our division without going to google. I watch the drafts for all the teams in our division and stick close to division news. Hence the reason I'm here. You see who the Browns pick, what the Browns are doing and live only in that world. All of which limits your credibility. Although you don't have much to begin with T-dawg! You're probably called T-dawg outside this message board aren't you? Yet another short sighted Browns Backer that instead of talking about the game at hand you're too busy talking about Big Ben's rape allegations or the fact that Joey Porter got shot in the ass. One of those fans. Soooooo PEACE T-Dawg. Keep on, keepin on.

in the NFL because I because I'm a wus and can't find friends on the other boards who talk about
my team, and my hero quarterback fave is a disgrace and now my autographed poster of him isn't worth a piece of gravel."

Oh man. You got me to the last letter. I post on my Steeler board plenty and get this WE HAVE PEOPLE THAT POST THERE THAT ARE FROM OTHER FAN BASES AND THEIR OPINION ISN'T immediately discredited because they're from a rival base. The only people that have a problem with my posting on this message board are the simple minded simps. If you don't like what I have to say don't read what I have to say. It's pretty simple. I do have a Big Ben Jersey that I'll still wear but lucky for me there are more than one or two Steeler jersey's worth owning. The entire Cleveland fan base should be in all Cribbs and Joe Thomas jerseys soon no? Oh and how disgraceful are those two lombardi's this decade? Oh man they are so tarnished. I also don't post for attention. I get that from my gf. Unless of course you like tying your emotions to a message board. Do you get out socially? or is this is for you?
You would think a rival perspective would be appreciated. Unless you enjoy growing complacent and fondling each others black and brown nuts. Bunch of butt hurt saucy ladies on this message board. Granted that isn't indicative of the entire board but man some of you guys are quick to turn on the tears.

No, not upset by your drivel.
But at least you could make it make some kind of sense, and have a sense of humor.
You seem more iike a teenage kid in Pittsburg, angry at the world, and wanting to fight online
like Dungeons and Dragons, but on a rival team's excellent forum.
You're kinda like the dirt that hangs on to a tractor tire when the humidity is really high.
You can notice that dirt, but everybody but the dirt knows it just doesn't matter.

Here is the deal: to these guys, it is the other way around. The Steelers have no relevence or significance except in terms with their relationship to the Browns. Notwithstanding anything else, it is the Browns that dominate their thought processes.
