    still watching the post game on NFLN.

    don't think i'll be able to wipe this smile off my face for a couple of days.

    what a great night. here's comes the hoyer interview.....

    the day the majority of cleveland fans shut up about johnny manziel will be the happiest day of my life. it may be in a couple weeks when hoyer goes for 500 yards against the shitty falcons pass D when gordon comes back

    Hoyer is a class act too. I thought it was great he went over and talked to the players who's daughter has stage four cancer. With the overall Hoyer story I just don't see how someone wouldn't like the guy and wish him success.

    He's good, and a class act. No negative about a game we were supposed to lose but dominated.

    Were you supposed to lose? The Bengals have been overrated all season IMO and I'm not shocked at all by the result. Andy Dalton is fvcking terrible. He's like Eli Manning lite. Play tough defensively and limit mistakes offensively and the bad qb's do the rest. I still can't believe they paid him all that money. Flacco at least won the super bowl before getting his pay day.

  • @bbedward said:

    Who dey?

    Bengals don't know nothing.

    WHO DEY? WHO DEY? WHO DEY GONNA BEAT THE BENGALS? DA BROWNS.

    @the-goat said:

    Okay...when Buster has two picks...you guys are having a good night.

    And Dalton played like total crap, which he usually does when the bright light are on. Can't hep you there.

    @vagitron said:

    115m dollars. Insane in the membrane, nice win.

    See you in January- not that far fetched, huh?

    Ha hoorta who knows, that would be pretty epic but who knows. One game at a time for both teams.

    That's kinda what the +6 next to our team name meant in the Vegas line...

    1 out of 52 "experts" picked the browns. the only one to pick them was mike ditka. so yes, i would say we were supposed to lose

    I don't gamble and almost never pay attention to the lines. Any given Sunday first and foremost but beyond that spotting either team 6 points for a game in a highly contested division is just down right stupid.

  • Just watched our D highlight package on NFL.com...

    If we ever need an emergency WR, we could do a helluva lot worse than Skine. The two picks he made tonite were both great catches...

    The first was a fastball he snagged out of the air.

    And he laid out beautifully for that 2nd one.

    If he's flashed catching skills like the above before, I missed it...

    Obviously in hindsight you are correct...

    I'm no gambler either... like it too much and am bad at it... a potentially deadly combo.

    You should join our Yahoo Pro Pick'em. Pick against a line for shits and giggles... and bragging rights.

    Thanks for the invite. I'm down to join. Is there a link somewhere? I'll probably sign up tomorrow. I also agree that hindsight is 20/20 but with the way dalton has been playing, Green being hurt and the Browns rallying there is no way in hell i'd have spotted the Bengals 6 points.

    Pro Pick'em is a pinned topic, but here's link to info you'll need...

    http://thebrownsboard.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=29976&do=findComment&comment=426482

    Lines are not set in the reality of the inequality of the match up, but rather to get the betting as close as possible to 50/50. As you'll see in Yahoo the initial line often changes thru the week and that's all about steering new money to one side or the other to create balance.

    Occasionally you'll even see a line flip, where the opening favorite ends up the underdog. It happened to the Steelers last week when they opened a 1.5 point favorite, but ended up a 1 point dog to the Ravens.

  • Just watched Hoyer's post game. He's really held on to his football philosophy learned under Belichick.

    Browns have a winner. Extend that beast

  • depends how much $ he's demanding. if he asks for dalton money, he's gone.

    Sorry, interpret DERP factor.

    Cleveland Clowns. Cincinnati Bungles. On the same field. Prime time with a slew of injuries.

    Good enough translation?

    I assumed DERP was an acronym. I was just wondering what it meant.

    Everlastingxxx,

    You have been given a warning by Zombo.

    Reason: Abusive Behaviour

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------

    Insulting Browns fan with abusive language

    lol, i just got a Warning from Zombo. The mother fucker insults me every chance he gets (ex: Everlastingnobslobber). I responded to someone calling me scum (i did nothing to be insulted). Every other post someone is insulting someone. Mik cant make a post without insults, lol

    BTW, Zombo was calling me out...again. I had to respond to that. My original post was in good spirits.

    dude. i have more warning points than any one on here.

    so go suck a dick mother fucker.

    @miktoxic said:

    I don't have any warning points. I can only assume that you don't get points for insulting Steeler fans.

    Welcome to America and the National Football League. Everyone talks about the point spread all the time. To be amazed that the Bengals were favored is just....idiotic.

    Maybe you should check out the line on the Steelers/Jets game.

    Oh, wait, I know your deal.....if you ever saw a line where the Steelers were the underdogs you would have such a tantrum that you would pee your pants. Well.....I have one word for you:

    Depends.

    Yes but you're a cowboy fan. Not quite as low as a steeler fan but close

    Stfu Gipper, Jesus. The steelers have already been underdogs this season. I'm being civil and you still have to be a grumpy geezer.

    Yes Dalton played like crap. I thought the Bengals had rented Brandon Weeden for the game.

    ^ This V. Regarding the line, Your Steelers Jets game, Steel City went from 1.5 to 5 point favorites, because everyone is betting on the Steelers to cover. If the teams play like they have the last couple weeks, Pittsburgh should be favored by 20. Just my 0.02.
