  • 1. First thing I'd like to see this Sunday is 85 to 95% of the seats occupied by the time players are introduced, and a real "home field" advantage.

    2. Next thing is, by the time the game ends, I would like to be able to have to still have faith in the coaching staff and their game management.

    3. And most important of all, an opening day win. Browns win 28-24

  • Things I think we'll see:

    1. Weeden in the shotgun about 70% of the time.

    2. A lot of carries for T-Rich, more than we'll see when Gordon returns.

    3. 8 or more catches for Bess, mostly on third down.

    4. Blitz-crazed aggression from Horton because we're facing a young QB.

    5. Stuff we didn't show in preseason: Horton likes blitzes up the middle and Robertson was born for it. He's quick.

    6. Good returns from Benjamin and Rainey. Field position will be key.

    7. Browns might be a little more conservative on offense than they will be later. 23-17 Browns.

  • Mingo is not ruled out... 😎

  • My gut says from reading what Banner said he will not play. I have a lot of faith in our other linebackers, and until we play a better offense, I'm not worried if he doesn't play

    more importantly, I hope to see the seats heavily occupied in the fourth quarter

    im guessing that's two field goals and not a missed extra point. You're out of your fucking mind. With Miami's D there is no way we do not score a touchdown, I think we score at least 2 or 3. That's a hell of a prediction my friend. CLE 30 MIA 16

  • hey..If I'm wrong..I'm wrong...Everyone seems so cocky and confident were gonna win..how can we not lose?..I hope we win..I'm just not feeling it.

    Nickers...."There are no old running QB's in the NFL "~Sam Rutigliano~

  • Hey... I'm not saying we can't or won't lose... But your prediction of 6 points is way too ridiculous

  • it's not like the browns haven't stunk up a game with only 2 field goals.

    ask the scottsmen in the forum who come to the big tailgate every year. they bought shirts saying "i travelled 3,000 miles and all i got was 2 field goals."

    i believe they are going to win and be a much improved team this year and actually fight for the division title...

    BUT

    i've said the same things after regime changes and brand new coaches and brand new schemes(except holmgren) and have been kicked in the nuts by reality way too often.

  • Yeah, the arrow on Mingo is definitely aimed upward. I saw a tweet that said everybody (team docs) feel pretty confident his scan will go just fine and then he's likely to be listed at "questionable," or 50/50. I'd like to see him in uniform, even if he just gets five or six snaps on obvious passing downs.

    Line is even, over/under is 43 points. It's one of our more important openers because you'd love to get to game three with Gordon and a fully healthy Mingo no worse than 1-1.

    Oh, other great news tweeted just an hour ago: Lauvao walked into the locker room with no walking boot and no limp. Coaches are saying they'll still hold him out, reevaluate next week. Could be he only misses one game. This comes on the heels of somebody at OBR hearing me might have "a procedure." Doesn't look that way.

  • Dolphins had top ten defense last season. Seem to be healthy for Sunday. 2012 offense near bottom of league.

    Browns should be able to pressure Tannehill and force him into mistakes.

    Dolphins were 2 -6 on road last season. 1 - 4 in season openers past 5 seasons.

    They lose top TD scorer Bush to Detroit. Running game a mystery .

    Turners play calling seems to be focusing on Browns strengths which should open up the offense compared 2012

    TRich seems 100/% but I am still not sold on his durability. ( I will be very surprised if he starts 16 gams this season.)

    I'd like to see Norv continue to get TE's involved especially Cameron. I pick him as my breakout player of the year.

    Bess should be able to help out with the Miami prep work.

    Browns have the DL and LB depth to keep intense pressure on Tannehill all day long. He will be hating life in the second half.

    Cleveland's offense comes alive in second half. Ray Horton satisfied with D's performance.

    Browns 20 Dolphins 10

  • I see the game coming down to offenses. And the Browns offense will be superior in the game. Browns 26-17

  • I think it will be an up and down day for both offences where they make some big plays but both defences get to the QB a fair amount.

    Browns 20-17 Dolphins

    I always labour hard to get my favourite colour when I paint my fences.

    And I wonder how many metres it is to the centre of the theatre.

    I also wonder if we can have a dialogue rather than a monologue about my Sears catalogue while we attend synagogue?

    Just messing with you friend....as my mother was raised in England, and I use some of the English spelling on some words.

    I get confused...is it Exercize or exercise?

    If I have bothered you I will gladly write you a cheque the next time I see you.

  • Ah! Yeah sorry, I usually try to use the US spelling when I type on here. Hope it didn't make it too hard to understand...

  • Either way, Sunday CANNOT come fast enough! I'm so itching for some real stuff, I'll probably even watch the rat birds on Friday morning at work. I'll feel dirty about it, but I'll still watch it.

  • Hello Browns Fans!

    Just thought I'd drop a line to respectfully disagree 🙂

    Here's what I know:

    1 - Cleveland has amazing run D

    2 - Miami has amazing run D

    3 - This game will be decided in the air

    4 - Both QB's match well against each other

    5 - Miami's weapons are better than Cleveland's "Josh Gordonless" weapons

    Miami 21

    Cleveland 17

    All in all, I expect to see a very good game on both sides. Best of luck to ya
