  • Titans can run the ball, so hopefully your run defense wad properly addressed over the bye and will be shored up come Sunday.

    That being said, I'd expect the Browns to be more fired up than the titans as I feel like the Browns know how good they are/can be where as the titans know they aren't nearly as good. Even if Locker plays, Browns all day, 27-17

  • If the Browns are going to make any serious moves they have to beat teams they should beat week after week. As much as that Ravens game pisses me off still they are a good squad. The Titans are one of those teams on the schedule the Browns should beat. Glass statue Locker is either going to be out or banged up, and the only real strength of the team is their run game (which could, admittedly be a big issue).

    This game also will really show the nature of this coaching group. The weaknesses of this team are glaring to be fixed. Obviously you can't magically make players, but I've felt over the past two weeks the entire scheme was off or not jiving with the players on the defensive side of the ball. The browns aren't going to be all pro-bowl, but guys like Taylor, Rubin, Haden, Dansby and Whitner can't all have regressed that badly in one year (or I'd hope). I'm optimistic that Pettine and crew tweaked things and they come out strong Sunday.

  • There is not a QB on the Titans roster that should beat us.

    Time for Pettine and Oneil to get their shit together and get this defense working.

  • Starter QB questionable. Who is their starting RB? Shonn Greene? I don't follow Titans in the least, but I've not heard that name come up much as doing anything great.

    Looking at their W-L record so far, their one lone win to date was season opener at KC, which they beat them 26-10. KC still has a decent defense, so Browns need to be ready on DEF for sure.

    The bettors are showing respect as we are now 1 point favorites so a lot of money must of come in on the Browns to swing the line that far already.

    Unusual to see one book out of step as to who is favored.

    They may be scratching Locker.

  • Dansby's future with the browns rests on this game. If we get run all over again he should be traded for some young ILB

  • maybe the colts will do a straight swap with him and DQ.

    Offshore places are different too than Vegas. I was only looking at sportsbook.

  • Locker to start...

    Sankey to see more plays...

  • Fuck the fuckin Titans.

    We come out swinging and beat their ass 28-13

    Hoyer 13-18 2 TD's 160 yards.

    Tate/West/Crowell go for 250 and 2 TD's

  • ultimate trap game.

    as soon as everyone says this is a 'give-me' game i bet the other way.

    browns BETTER win this game. if not, then i'll start throwing the walterwhite questions out there.

    pettine better show us his defensive genius here.

  • I agree. We had best win this game and show some tackling/pass coverage.

    Dansby already has more tackles for loss than DQ did his entire career here. I can't ever remember DQ in an opponents backfield.

    Browns last road victory was vs Minnesota with Hoyer's first start.

    Browns are 33-88 on the road since 1999.

    This is a game we should win, and a game we need to win . . . Jury's out

    If it's a squeaker that we win, that might not be a bad thing. Give them confidence they'll win the close ones.

    Or, a 2-TD margin. That would also work for confidence.

  • Just watched rewind of Titans/ Colts game...

    I'm glad Locker is going to start; Whitehurst looked pretty good...

    ... unless he was standing too close to Luck.

    Can you imagine watching a game like last night where there's a significant margin the whole game for the Browns? Man, I'd love for one week not to be on the brink of losing my mind haha.
