I mean think about it...A QB with an arm and accuracy, a stout O-Line, Good-Great running game, serviceable WR's, and a top 10 defense. That sounds like a pretty fucking good team to me. I mean the only weaknesses on this team are WR's and LB's and Donovan McNabb went to Conference championships without elite receivers so lets go Browns 2012 season FUCK YEAH!!!
and a top 10 defense........
Far out!!! When did we get one of those? Our defense has been pathetic since 1999.

I'm pretty sure our defense was top 10 last year. I'll check again.
Got it now: Total Yards Defense
Proud fan of the Buffalo Bills and Cleveland Browns. -
Playoffs... I doubt it, but I hope. I do believe we will actually be competent this year, though. It'll be fun to watch for only the second time since 1999.

Because the opposing team always had fantastic field position, they didn't have to go very far to score, hence the low yardage.
I'm awesome, and I fuck dolphins. Ghoolie 12/2/2012: I have absolutely no skills, training or pride -

I don't think it's that stupid. If Weeden starts nailing it right out of the gate and can stay on it, I think anything is possible.
A tragic mid-air collision between the Ravens and Steelers team jets in week 7 wouldn't hurt either.

yeah, that's it.
i mean DAMN! why can't my team reach epic levels of suck-titude that the browns have obtained for the past quarter century?
congrats, you have the second worst professional team in all of sports besides the pirates (and it could be EASILY argued that you have the WORST team due to the fact that the NFL has a salary cap).
with all i've heard about Big Ben being a rapist and i go to a online sex offender registry and look up cleveland and Pittsburgh and what do i find? cleveland has a CRAP load more sex offenders (and expecially child molesters) than Pittsburgh.......over 4X as many over all. 2055 of them to Pittsburgh's 421. www.familywatchdog.us better never hear one of you date raping, can't get a woman with my tiny peep unless i hold her down, child molesting hypocrits say anything else about Ben. -

Congrats for wasting your time on a rival teams message board, would you like an award for this accomplishment.

Our front seven is awful, and our DB's are adequate (only if Ward is healthy). Screw those links. i go to the games on Sundays.

gafreleets, I think many would envy the amount of free time you apparently have, but yet many would scoff at how poorly you use it.

With Weeden a the helm I could see alot of things change positively. The Browns, if they all frickin stay healthy, would be a formidable foe for EVERY game we play.
Weeden needs protection from our offensive line, which has been added to via draft, and it certainly should be a solid performing O line.
Richardson MUST be utilized. Call plays that fit him, his style, use him on screens, MULTIPLE passes to him. and PLEASE stay healthy T Rich
D is shaping up to be Elite. If our defensive rookies play as well as past ones we've drafted, this should be a defense of studs. notice i say "shaping up", not elite just yet.
Shmurmer and Childress, the ball is in their court. Utilize your freakin talent, if this Browns offense gets rolling, the defense will do its job (as it did last year, the D was about solid all year, give or take HOU and TEN.

I agree that's it's utterly pathetic that Cleveland can't even best Pittsburgh in having the worst excuse for a professional sports franchise.
To quote Jim Mora: "What's that? Ah -- Playoffs? Don't talk about -- playoffs?! You kidding me?! Playoffs?! I just hope we can win a game! Another game!"
You just lost your defensive star Phil Taylor for the season and what have the Browns done exactly to improve their defense. Signed a couple of second/third string lineman to try to shore up the run defense. You may be able to run the ball and run the clock this year, but you need points to win. I don't see any wide-out playmakers on your roster.
Rushing a QB into action the first year is typically a recipe for disaster. Sure Roethlisberger and Dalton did pretty well, but they had alot of other stars to ease the process along (that the Browns don't appear to have). Also, let's not forget the AFC North is a defensive powerhouse and Weeden struggled in the face of pressure/blitzes in college.
Maybe I could get more into this thread if you passed the bong or mad dog around.

For what its worth, in my view the Steelers and Ravens are going to slip slide this year. They may still have a better overall record than the Browns, but their troubles are just beginning. The Bengals seem perhaps to be the team that has made the most improvement.
Also, FYI for whomever said it, the Browns are by no means the worst franchise in terms of playoff drought.
In the NFL the Bills have gone 12 years without a playoff appearance and the Raiders have gone the same length of time as the Browns at 9 years.
In MLB, with fewer playoff teams (until this coming year) you have the following playoff droughts all longer than the Browns:
Washington Nationals/Expos 30 years
KC Royals 26 years
Pirates 19 years
Blue Jays 18 years
Orioles 14 years
Mariners 10 years.
In the NBA and NHL where more than half the teams make the playoffs the droughts are less lengthy. Right now in the NBA the Minnesota Timberwolves have gone 8 years for the longest playoff drought in that league and in the NHL it is the Toronto Maple Leafs with 7 years as the longest playoff drought.

So your saying...the bucs ....while trying to set the record across all sports for most consecutive losing seasons.....is a better team than the browns?
LMAO!!

The Pirates don't need to try...they have already done it. By two years. Here are the longest consecutive losing season streaks in history by teams in the Big 4 major leagues:
18 years Pittsburgh Pirates 1993 to present
16 years Philadelphia Phillies 1933-1948
15 years Sacramento Kings 1983-1998
15 years Vancouver Canucks 1976-1991
15 years Phil/KC As 50s-60s. The As spent their entire existance in KC and never had a winning record until they moved to Oakland
14 years Tampa Bay Buccaneers 1983-1996
14 years Ft.Wayne/Detroit Pistons 1956-1970
14 years Detroit Red Wings 1973-1987
14 years Chicago Blackhawks 1946-1960

I'm pretty sure our defense was top 10 last year. I'll check again.
Got it now: Total Yards Defense
Because the opposing team always had fantastic field position, they didn't have to go very far to score, hence the low yardage.
You are in error sir.Because the opposing team always had fantastic field position, they didn't have to go very far to score, hence the low yardage (allowed by the defense).
Simple statistics document that the opposite is true.
CLE was 10th in Yards Allowed.
CLE was 5th in Points Allowed.
Yards allowed means little to me coz it's points that win / lose games.
2011 Defenses in Points Allowed:
1. PIT
2. SF
3. BAL
4. HOU
5. CLE
Please notice that the top 4 were all playoff teams.
So, yes, CLE has had a playoff quality defense over the past two seasons.
The defense actually got incrementally better over the past three seasons.
But the offense, which was improving under Mangini / Hillis, has been terrible and even got a bit worse under Shurmer.
So please focus on Points Scored or Points Allowed and not Yardage.
Yardage is the measure of an individuals accomplishments.
Points are the measurement of a teams accomplishments.
To the topic: No, not this year with a rookie QB, one of the toughest schedules, and Shurmer.
PIT with their #1 defense were #21 in points scored by their shitty Bruce Arians offense.
That should give you some perspective of what it takes to make it to the Wildcard game.
Consider the Ravens, They do not sow or reap, they have no storeroom or barn; yet God feeds them. And how much more valuable are you to God than the Ravens? Book of Luke, Chapter 12, Verse 24.
