  • As much as I like where EM has our team headed, I am absolutely beyond frustrated that he continues to start Delhome, over Wallace while Colt heals. It is a pathetic decision and one that reeks of "my guy".........................Every time Delhome drops back, throws a wild side arm pass to a guy who's double covered and then looks over to the bench with that blank, confused look, I lose a lot more respect for EM.

    I 100% agree with you there, I'm getting tired of seeing Delhomme stink it up every week.

    well I agree but our o-line is not helping him out any, and our WRs can't get open.. Daboll's playcalling hasn't helped either...

    I see your point but how did McCoy have pretty good success with the same receiving corp and Delhomme, who is the vet, can't seem to get it to any of our receivers?

    I know the weather is a factor today and I didn't like that stupid reverse call by Daboll but it looks like Delhomme is just off.

  • I'm so pissed off right now that I probably shouldn't post, but after that display of ineptitude, Mangini, and his whole staff can get the hell out. What a terrible display of week long game planning, and even worse game day play calling............PATHETIC MANGINI, PATHETIC

    I'll probably regret this post tomorrow, but damn it

    Word is out...no WR to burn you, Jake is NOT mobile, so blitz. My question is, why wasn't the more mobile Wallace brought in, or more wildcats used? Also, even given the fumbles, why did we desert the run as our primary weapon? Hillis was running well.

    The Browns did not play well. It looked like they took this one for granted, & Buffalo came to play.

  • Shouldnt losing be put on everyone who plays and coaches for us rather then one person? I know some are more responsible then others but a loss could come from a certain fumble, missed pass, bad coahcing, etc...

    How can you play a QB that looks like he has cement bags on his feet? Honestly, Cribbs at QB the entire game gives the Browns more of a chance to move the football. Losing out gets EM fired.....so his dumbass better bench Jake the mistake.

  • Holmgren will be back as GM and not GM/Coach.

    Mangini will be back. Mangini's job is safe irregardless of any more wins this year.

    I won't be surprised if Colt doesn't start another game this year. They have seen him perform enough to know he's their man or they're going to acquire someone else. I strongly suspect they like what they saw and playing him more this year really isn't necessary.

    It's all about seeing who they'll keep and let go at this point for those players still on the bubble, especially on the O-Line and Defense.

  • PS---In a past life, on August 23, 79 a.d. Dan Pompei also predicted there would never be a volcano in the city that carried his family's name.

    No, I'll have to respectfully disagree. If you have an ounce of football IQ, it's painfully obvious Jake is totally, completely washed up. (Hands of stone Royals didn't help him much on a well thrown ball, I have to admit.)

    So IF HEALTHY, Colt needs the maximum amount of snaps possible this year- and especially to see how he handles himself in the next three bad weather games. Yeah, it occasionally gets nippy in Texas, and Colt is one tough cowboy- but I (and I'm sure Mike Holmgren) want to see how Colt plays when its 10 degrees out. 🙂

  • I agree as well. Colt needs to play as soon as he's healthy. We all knew that Jake wasn't the future...unfortunately he really isn't the present either. This team needs to win games heading into a year when we should be able to be competitive for a playoff spot and Colt looks like he's the guy to lead us there.

  • I brought up this subject in a previous thread. The issue to me is relatively simple. Two main things ego and offense. Holmgren has a huge ego and wants to be credited with the success of the Browns. We are moving nicley in that direction.

    Jake is a trainwreck and McCoy is showing he may be a real find.

    Holmgren is an offensive minded persons and Mangini appears to be very much conservative on offense consdering his track record here and elsewhere.

    I think Holmgren would love the glory and part of that is having an offensive juggernaut. Mangini has NOT shown he is one to create an offensive juggernaut.

    It probably troubles him that Mangini got here first

    Mangini has shown he is a competent NFL coach and can motivate his team get them to play well.

    SO bottom line if we falter the last three games............Mangini will be gone and we will look for an offensive mind

    If we win two it is a push he stays or gets canned

    IF we will all three.......he is a lock to stay

    My guess is Holmgren is looking for ammunition to replace Mangini

    and if you say gruden i know you and WRREBEL (matt) are gay and sleeping together.

    if holmgren fires mangini after the team has shown the progress it has even w/o seeing the results of the last few games, i'll deem him an idiot. what: break everything down and start all over? again? NONSENSE.

    only ammunition needed is the clip to cap your ass with.

    Wait miktoxic, how did you know about me and rich4eagle?

    As much as this loss hurts it is the nail in manginis coffin. The browns play down to there competition. All I heard all week is mangini clones saying how we are a bad weather team.

    You people might get mad at me but mangini is not the answer.

    Gruden will be our coach in 2011, deal with it and get ready for return to glory..

    Oh and btw I also predicted we would win this week 😉

  • Yep, I agree, WRREBEL, that Gruden will be our coach. Holmgren's forte is offense comes first, and defense comes next and Mangini does not fit Holmgren's forte. This team is eerily similar to the 2002 Tampa Team in my opinion. Joe Haden is Ronde Barber, TJ Ward is John Lynch, Marcus Benard is Derrick Brooks, Peyton Hillis is Mike Alstott. Mangini has helped built the team, however, the team needs a new coach to put the finishing touches to the team.

  • This doesn't have to be a gang fight... it's a discussion. I don't think Mangini's an idiot... but I do think it's possible that he'll lose his job. Why? Because Holmgren was brought in to remake the franchise, to be "the guru." For one year, he did it with a staff that is not of his choosing that doesn't run his schemes. It was show-me time, and no matter what else we say, the Browns are 5-8 and just lost to Buffalo.

    Is that great progress over 5-11? Is it really? I'd say Tampa Bay and Kansas City, both at 8-5, have shown more progress. The Rams, too.

    If Holmgren deep down wants to go with his systems on both sides of the ball, he has his opening. It's his call. Certainly we haven't done anything on offense to make us get psyched for more Daboll. That's a given. And McCoy is destined to be a WCO QB... and you can ask the Walrus himself and he'll tell you. Already did, in fact.

    So do you tell Mangini he can stay if he essentially releases control of the offense? A lot of coaches would say no to that. So we'll see.

  • Shut up Shep. Please just stfu you chatter box piece of crap.

    See I think mangini is an idiot savant, it all goes back to week 4 after the bengals game when he gave the game ball to his son.. The rest i agree with!

  • Let's not forget Holmgren hand picked the useless Delhomme....
