    This started last year after the national championship game.

    I'm not sure this team could tank if it wanted to. It may overachieve, or finish right where it should (around 7 or 8 wins).

    Cardale may or may not work out, but he has a lot of improvement to make before any team would even consider "tanking" to draft him.

    Mike- I was on the "Fail for Cardale" bandwagon from the start. Almost started a thread by that name after OSU shellacked VT. I'm sort of rethinking. Zero doubt the guy has a cannon arm- they don't call him 12 Guage for nothing. Also saw some nice touch passes against VT. The question is- well, is he another Jamarcus Rusell, or a Ben Rothlisberger\ Cam Newton?

    He keeps on winning- he's fer sure going to be in the Heisman\ top 10 pick conversation.

    Love Cardale Jones, love Ohio State. I just don't see mechanics, or an NFL player when I watch him, yet. I think he'll get better, and in the end will still be just another projection because of the type of player he is... Proving it as a pocket passer should be his focus, but in that offense he won't have the most opportunities

    You do but when you put an inferior team on the field the results take care of themselves. Just ask the 2011 Colts

    Holy cow! I can't believe anyone would think other than Ace says. If anyone has already given up on this season before we stepped on the field, then start JF from day one. By the end of the season we will have either Jones or we will have a proven QB already on the team. We probably should do that anyway like other teams have done and watch how the entire season plays out with JM running the show. It's a win-win IMHO.

  • If this team ever did play to lose I would quit watching them for good.

    So honest scenario (I'm curious what others think too). The Browns are obviously out of it with say 2 weeks to go and have won 2-3 games. They are in the running for the number one pick and it's obvious (insert QB) is the can't miss prospect. What do you feel then about losing the next two games? Look, overall I agree with what you're saying and there's no way as a coach or an organization you can tell people to go out to lose. But how many times now have we just missed the QB that could have righted the ship and made it so we aren't on the 23rd QB to start since '99? IDK man, a couple of meaningless games down the crapper to ensure the future is a small price to pay.

  • I don't think it's always inappropriate, but don't do it for as much of a question mark as Cardale Jones.

    I would love everyone on the fail bandwagon to personally call, write, text, etc. everyone on the Browns' team and tell them of your desires. And when you wake up from your month long beat down coma I hope you realize that no pro athlete would tank a season before it even starts. Pathetic.

    I don't care how long we've sucked. This team is building something now and they need fans that root to win every game. Not bandwagon losers who think the only way to win is to lose.

    Jones has played 4 games and too many people think he's the 2nd coming. There's a handful of players that you can predict will have successful pro careers and he ain't one of them. Loved what he did for the Buckeyes last year, with the help of his team, but waaaaaaay too early to drool.

    Well if they did give a "month long beat down" we would suck AND all our players would be in jail

  • Intentionally tanking pretty much sends the message to the vets on the team that the front office and coaches could give a shit about the few years of play they have left. Not to mention that the fans will no show for the games.

    Fail for Cardale can eat shit.

  • Bunch of nonsense. You build a solid team, emphasize character, love for the game,

    and kickass toughness, and then fans think that you should throw it all away to get

    the top pick???

    You think Danny Shelton, Joe Thomas, Haden...all the rest... are going to lose on purpose

    for the stupid draft?

    Dumb idea.

    Will never ever cheer for my team to lose. Ever. I hate it and I hate the mentality.

    However... I would like to see the Browns draft a QB next year. I think it's important.

    Quitting is for losers. But you're from NE so I understand.

    This pisses me off. Especially about someone as unpolished and questionable as Jones

    Everyone on that stupid bandwagon is a clueless homer that doesn't deserve the opportunity to root for the Browns.
