Browns 2012 Schedule
-
I have been a browns fan since jim Brown was playing and I have seen lived thru more heart ache than I care for. Lived thru the 80's in Denver NEVER will I root for another teamwork nor lose faith in the browns I am a true fan can some of you say the same? Bad coaches worse players still a fan! Now here we are 11 days b4 thereafter 3 picks out of the first 37 picks;2 of them in first 22 and you people are talking 0-16 ;2-14.That may happen but you know what I will still believe in the Browns. Faith is what we need now,our defense isgood our offense will be better. Just believe

Well, we have to be about the same age. There's a difference between faith and hope. I hope the Browns will play better this year, but I have no faith that's going to happen. Not only that, I'm one of those real dumb guys who's been writing Randy Lerner checks every year since 1999 to see (taken as a whole) a pretty abominable exhibition of professional football. So go ahead and tell me how the Browns currently stack up against the Packers or some of the other top teams, (or how they rate talent wise to the Glory Year teams of the 60s, or even the pretty good Kosar years) and give me some ray of faith or hope this season's going to be any better than the last.
Yes, I sure hope Heckert can repeat the Steelers miracle of 1974, and pull 4 Hall of Famers out of the rabbit hat this year. Reality tells me that's about a million to one shot of being repeated. Reality also tells me right now we have no running back worth a damn, no RT, and a seriously deficient linebacking crew. Not to mention a head coach who last year could have made Elmer Fudd look like a genius.
I'll grant you the naysayers took one look at the schedule, and said "woe is us". I'm smart enough to think otherwise- I had the Bengals in the Andrew Luck sweepstakes before the season started last year- and they made the playoffs. However- as they say in Missouri "show me". I'll have the Browns at 4 wins again until I see massive improvement in both the overall talent level, and improved play calling. You do remember opposing DC were calling the Browns plays out before McCoy even snapped the ball, based on formation?

There was talk of an early season gathering. The Philly gamewould be good for that. I think the Browns will have a little suprise waiting. And those who want to come close to ensuring a victory may like the Bills matchup! And maybe we could draw a good Canadian crew to add to that mix too. I feel bad that Howie and G only get to see losses.
I am good with that....if Oct doesn't work for some, I'll make that a blowout weekend for me...I am flexible....tell me to be there, I'll be there, but i am with Mark, Dec. needs to be nixed from the big weekend schedule......that leaves Sept. or Nov.

As they say, we will all anxiously await the word from Howie, Keith, and G-Man as to when the big weekend will be. Right now, no game particularly hits me as a "must do".
But I could easily be persuaded to take the short road trip to Indy for the Colt's game again, and a return visit to St. Elmo's.

I don't know about ever, but it is as good as it gets from a spacing standpoint...2 games a month, none back to back. For us dawgs who travel, that means something. It makes travel much easier and it spreads out the budget. I couldn't be happier. The last few years we seemed to have all the good games bunched up and always seemed to be playing Christmas week at home.

No doubt their plans will impact the thought process. As it stands I will do both Sept. games and then to decide for the Chargers at the end of Oct. or the Ravens the first of Nov. I think I'll do the Ravens, so 1 Oct game and both Nov, games, then one Dec. game. The Skins game with RGIII is thew attractive game over the Chiefs game....plus we own the Skins...we win that game...the Chiefs own us, we lose that game.

STFU... We're all Browns fans here. Us being "faithful" or hopeful will have no impact. Just keep living in fantasy world. Until the Brown prove something, I won't be faithful. Come off season you can join the rest of the "we're looking good", "the guys are really excited", "this year is different" crowd and blow each other until we start getting whipped again.

A nice spread of games.....no having to head up back to back weeks.
My initial thinking is the Bengals game Oct, 14th needs to be the blowout.
Steve is playing the Eastland on the 13th....Pat is determined to hear his whole act.
My thinking is I'll be up for the Eagles and Bills in Sept., Bengals and Chargers in Oct., Steelers in Nov., and Skins in Dec......6 games....works, no back to back weeks or night games.
I am happy.

That sounds good to me, though its a bit earlier than usual. It is my understanding that Steve will probably be in Hawaii for the games on Oct. 21 and Oct. 28 (I will be there too, so for my money go for that Bengals game.

Keep in mind...I PAY to watch every game in real time. But yes they do have a whole lot farther to travel.
The last win I saw was in 2000 (I think) Browns over Patriots (of all teams). Doug Pederson was the QB for the Browns. I was only in town for the game..I flew in Sunday morning and flew out Sunday night after the game was over. I had to be in Chicago working on Monday morning so I flew a day early...took the redeye into Cleveland and then flew to Chicago that night.

I was at that same game, the only one I had attended since the Browns were back until last year.

Several other thoughts:
1. Whatever happened to bunching divisional games at the end of the season like they did last year when the Browns ended with the Gals, Rats, and Squibs all at the end? On this schedule they finish with both the puddytats and the crows before the bye.
I haven't seen the other teams schedules. Do the other teams in the AFCN play each other at the end?
2. Interesting road games to perhaps take a trip to for those that are interested:
NYC in early October would be a nice trip to combine football and sightseeing in that town.
Dallas in November. Not that there is much interesting in Dallas, but my daughter will be attending college in Texas.
Oakland in early December. Combine the game with a Napa Valley tour.
Denver at Christmas. For ski buffs?
3. No more than 2 road games or 2 home games in a row. Yes, sounds like a nice spread. But the Browns will be able to spend about a month at home from after they play the Colts on 10/21 until they go to Dallas on 11/18. Two home games in a row plus the bye.

Other than the level of challenge, not surprisingly this real one bears no resemblance to last week's "leaked" schedule.
Agree with all those waiting to see the draft, but the difference between a great and an OK draft is probably only 2 - 4 wins... of course when the baseline is around 2 wins, 2 - 4 is significant.

It's official, I will be in Baltimore for the Thursday night game.

By the way, 5 possible snow games.
Do you think the Pensacola boy (Richardson) can become a snow plow horse?
You never know ... Brett Favre was Southern Boy who did quite well on the tundra, and O.J. Simpson was a Californian who did quite well in Buffalo.
His style would lead me to believe he could be an awesome plow horse.

He fits the mold for a great AFC north rb. Him or Blackmon at 4. Else ill be a sad panda.

the preview blurb:
"Let's play "Find the win so the Browns can avoid going 0-16." They'll be huge underdogs in every game they play against much more talented teams except for these two: an away tilt at Indianapolis in October, where Andrew Luck may have his sea legs under him; and a home game against the Redskins in mid-December. Cleveland could realistically be 0-13 headed into that one. "
couldn't agree more.
Predicting wins before the draft is laughable..
