    The New York Football Giants got there ass handed to them 34-0 by the Falcons. Anything can happen in the NFL. Remember they won the Super Bowl last year.

    I know but the Giants have proved in the past that they can contend. The Browns have beat 3 shitty teams and everyone acts like they're a playoff team. Great enthusiasm but it's not reality.

    So a team has to win a Super Bowl before their fans can root for the team? That makes no sense..

    Why don't you read the entire posts. I said people were saying on here that the Browns will be a playoff contender next season. I disagreed. This game is exactly why I don't think the Browns are a playoff team yet. They strung off 3 wins against shit teams and suddenly people think they're playoff bound next season.

    The retort was that the Giants got their asses handled to them today, but they are still a playoff team. Yes, that's true because in recent past, this season and last, the Giants have beaten playoff teams. The Browns haven't. Therefore the Browns, in my opinion, are not a playoff contender this season and probably not next.

    I'll always root for them, I'm just stating my opinion and giving examples of why I think this way. Thanks.

  • a few players away inluding a RG

  • need a qb, te, fb, g, lb, cb, s, p and then they'll be a playoff team

  • I'm not sure if I'm taking it the wrong way, but it seemed like he was trying to take the blame off of himself before anyone put it on him.

    It made me mad, as if he were trying to better his image and not acknowledge the fact he played a bad game today.

    I think it was a team loss but to just flat out say it in the beginning before anyone even asked just makes it seem like he's trying to save himself.

  • Well, the Browns were outplayed and outcoached today. This game just lets us know how far we still need to go. Weeden was lost as he has been most of the year. Cousins benefited from a coaching staff that had a plan to help him succeed.

    The playoff talk was fun but we are still miles away from being contender. BUT with all the negatives......... i still feel good about this team going into next year.

  • We knew Shurmur was useless.

    We need LB's other than DJ who can do something useful with their lives.

    We also need DB's other than JH and TW who are functional NFL players.. the rest shouldn't earn playing time on CFL teams.

  • Worst pick Hecket has made yet, i think he felt pressured into taking him by Holmgren and the fact that we missed on RG3....He isnt the answer im sorry guys we gotta look else where... I knew when we made the pick we could have grabbed someone else and just McCoy ride this season out or shit took Cousins or Wilson a guy in a later round who Wasnt a 1st round pick or 29 Fucking years old,who could be better...

  • Yes, he does.

  • I do think Heckert was pressured to get him. He is absolutely terrible. I wanted to give him the whole season to really form an opinion, but damn.

  • All Ive seen this season from BW is a QB with 0 vision and 0 QB instincts

    You need players to make adjustments, this offense has them but not always in the best spots..

    I think you need a coach that knows how to make adjustments. We run the same crap EVERY game. There seems to be NO game specific adjustments at all. Just run slants and crossing routes, regardless of the opponent.

  • I agree Weeden blows this year but I'll stand by the same assessment I have of Shurmur. You start with Weeden next year unless there is a better FA option available. You hope he gets better with a year plus under his belt in the same system with the same receivers. You try and get better and deeper in need positions like LB, OL, WR, FB, TE, DL. If after next year Weeden still hasn't gotten it or Shurmur is clearly holding the team back, make the change, but don't do it for the sake of doing it. The Browns next year will be a long shot to be a playoff team unless Tom Brady walks through the door so lets get some stability for once.
