  • Wait, a non-douche-baggy opposing fan visiting our site.. Is this real life?

    I can answer some of your questions about our team as well. I don't know much about the offense mostly because I fall asleep when they are on the field or just can't see reality through my ongoing psychosis primarily caused by the thinking that this series will be better than the last.

    Our defense is pretty good. I also doubt that your favorite team is dirtier than the rapies that play in Pittsburgh. Their women smell of IC light beer and broken dreams, so maybe the higher quality women found while escaping to Vegas/Georgia caught one of them by surprise (twice).

  • Will the Texans only play their 2nd stringers?

    Depends on what you think of our WR corps without Johnson. Also our CB2 is not really a starter quality unit (Jason Allen/Kareem Jackson).

    Why is the YPG rushing number so large for your defense?

    The defense is generally good against the run, but they seem give up at least one big play on the ground each game which leads to that big number. We are weak against fast edge rushers (slow OLBs). Up the middle we can handle.

  • Browns fans are very fickle. I think as a whole we were hoping for a .500 season. But the last few games has shown are offense to be sad. Hopefully with Hillis back this week and him getting 20+ touches will help level the playing field.

    Is Mario Williams out? How does the Texans fan base view Phillips as a DC?

    IR for the season. Madly and passionately in love with the fat ol man. Remember, his dad coached the Oilers in the 70's and 80's during the years they were playing the Steelers in AFCCG's all the time, so there is a history with the Phillips family.

    Based on the last few games, not very optimistic since they have to let the offense play too. I would love to see if we can generate an offense with Hillis back assuming he gets 25 carries.

    I was all full of hope this year, but have crashed. I will be back to xxxxing optimistic come Sunday!

    I think our O will improve when Colt does. It was mentioned in another thread that he doesn't seem to be able to play without thinking yet and that leads to some hesitation, and not knowing where to go with the ball under duress all the time.

  • Good point.

    I think the Browns can win if the following happens:

    1. Hillis has 25 carries.

    2. We can contain your run game.

    3. The OL gives Colt time to throw.

    But if any one of those things doesn't happen the Browns will lose.

    Why did you pussies let the Oilers leave without a fight?

    Zombo

    Bud Adams had already forced the city to pay for (and were still paying for after he left) 10's of millions of dollars in stadium repairs on the Astrodome. He wanted a new stadium built only a few years after the city of Houston had passed a huge bond to get the older stadium renovated to what Adams had specified.

    Personally I like having Bob McNair more than Bud Adams anyways. How's Art Modell doing?

  • Loved the Oilers growing up...I mean, after the Browns. Their uni's and logo kicked ass

    My expectations are to actually look like a pro football team on offense. Our O-line is playing horrible, and we can't sustain any drives. McCoy has no confidence, it sucks.

    It will be interesting to see how our defense plays- I think the Texans will be the best offense we've played so far.

    Hard worker and durable but just not talented enough to warrant a spot on the roster for the Texans.

    He is not the fantastic utility player that James Casey is, so whenever Casey is healthy he's the guy. Hey may be a slightly better blocker than Casey, but he certainly isn't a threat to touch the ball right now. He's done his job decently in Casey's absence, which is good, but he's definitely the second FB on the depth chart.
