I Couldn't Be More Happy With This Loss!

  • We obviously lose out to Balt and Pitt. This guarantees either Blackmon or Barkley--FRANCHISE CHANGING PLAYERS. IF we had beaten the Cards today we would slip to the teens picking another Taylor.

    For all you that think we should have won out are all fools--there's no winning mind-set, we go back to being the Browns next year with a marginal first rounder, and the season was lost anyway--the onlyh thing we have now in our pocket in next year's draft (which will be a good one!) Sure the win would feel good until what, tomorrow? Then reality sets in that we just lost out on a Franchise player.

    Welcome to Cleveland Barkley or Blackmon. It's as good as done.

    And also for all you that are bitching and moaning about my philosophy on what's best for our team, I hope you don't cheer for that player we draft next year, because if it were up to you we wouldn't have been in position to draft him. So, F off.

    Browns did good today by losing.

    That's the end result.

    I will take Blackmon if he is there for us. But as I have said about Barkley: we already have him on our roster. His name is Colt McCoy. He is about the same height and weight as McCoy. His arm isn't rated much stronger, if at all. He doesn't have as much mobility as McCoy. McCoy college career was superior to Barkley's.

    Sorry, not interested. Give me Blackmon or give me a defensive player.

    I feel the same about Barkley. If we take a QB with our first pick it better be Luck or RG3.. Although I would rather have Blackmon or even Richardson..

  • Name Team G Rec Yds Y/G Avg Lng YAC 1stD TD

    Greg Little CLE 14 57 669 47.8 11.7 76 2.9 32 2

    Julio Jones ATL 11 42 755 68.6 18.0 80 7.3 28 5

    Hmm...

  • It's 1999 to do all over.

    Do you take Couch or trade down with Ditka for his entire draft and let him take Ricky Williams.

    I don't mind the Julio Jones move.

    We should have started restocking the cupboard years ago.

  • If we're not playing for draft picks when we are out of the playoff race than we are some dumb motherfuckers in NE Ohio.

    I can't think of any logical person arguing going from 4-12 to 7-9 and neither team making the playoffs and then telling me why the 14th pick is the same as the first 5 picks (Unless were picking some odd ended posisition)

    Yes drafts are hit or miss but i'd rather be taking the best player at the posisition and not the 3rd or 4th best when it falls to our pick.

    We pick this high in the draft every year. And.... we're still picking this high in the draft every year.

  • I cannot wrap my brain around us loseing all the time. And after every loss I hear the same shit, We need draft picks! No we don't. We always have draft picks that suck ass. We always say the same thing, Give him a few more years! I have spent countless amounts of money just like most of you. When are we going to see results? To me we try to lose. Does anybody remember back in like '01 when we were beating Chicago 21-7 with like a min to go and we lost? It's the same typical shit. Don't matter who the coach/player is. I think we are cursed or just plain suck monkey ass.

  • Couple of things

    1. Lebron did change the Cavs for the better, they were a doormat team Lebron comes in and puff we are running for title even thou we didnt get one. I really not a basketball guy, but it was a nice run

    2. Blackmon will be drafted by the Rams

    3. NO WAY in hell we draft Barkley

    4. RG3 will be in Cleveland next yr, or another O-lineman 🙂

    5. Shurmer sucks

    6. Colt sucks

    7. ALL OUR RUNNING BACKS SUCK

    8. Little thank you for waking up for your 4 game Retarded play

    Some of us are more easily pleased than others I guess. Personally, I'm way beyond hoping for a nice run or wishing this team was more watchable. I'm getting old. F losing, F second place. Lebron changed nothing.

    It starts at the top. We got ourselves a soccer guy at the top. I wish it mattered who we drafted but I don't think it really does.

    Go Browns.

    Losing just breeds more losing. The higher draft pick is nice, but I would much rather have had the win. No draft pick is a sure thing. You apparently have already forgotten about Couch, Brown, and Warren.

    Now if the loss gets Shurmer fired, that would be a step in the right direction.

    Warren had half a sack yesterday.

    I want more than a freaking journeyman with the third overall pick- that's been the Browns downfall. We passed on LaDanian Tomlinson and Richard Seymour to take Warren- now who got a better deal- Browns, Chargers, or Patriots?

    That has been our downfall- busting over and over again (or not getting value) with top 10 picks. Since '99 Joe Thomas and Joe Haden is my short list of unqualified success stories- if we want to compete with the Big Boys, we have to do better, and that's not even taking into account doing way better with lower round picks. That same 2001 draft could have landed the Browns my favorite whipping boy, Chad Muchostinko.

    It's leadership. How is it we are always picking high, yet we barely have anything to show for it? Yet teams like Pittsburgh, Baltimore, and New England pick in the bottom, but they're getting production from the lower 1st round picks! We have shitty management, shitty coaching, shitty scouting, and shitty ownership!

    BTW I remember that game. My wife and a friend of ours were both like "oh don't worry it's over, they won!" I kept telling them it's not over until I see double zeros! Sure enough.... well you know the rest. The Bears tie, the game goes into overtime, the Browns win the toss, and Couch throws a pick 6! 😡

    Like you, I'm tired of hearing be patient! I've been patient! 13 years is MORE than enough time to have built something! 😡
