***Official Browns Vs. Bengals Game Day Thread***
-
it's hard to watch. at least the baltimore game was close. remember how marvin lewis sucked his first few years and the bengals stuck with him anyway? same with dalton. it would be nice if the browns could have some consistency instead of tearing everything apart every 2 years but it looks like pettine's days are numbered, time to blow it all up again : (
maybe they can demote pettine to DC and keep flip as OC so things wouldn't be completely reset, but we'll see what happens. i don't see a head coach better than pettine wanting to come to cleveland, best case scenario is a sidegrade.

I don't know if Pettine's the answer but until I see talent being wasted I see no reason to change.
Let me put in a different way. I really like Flip and his offense despite our record. He's managed to take a journeyman 36 year old QB, a 1st rounder and a UDFA and turn it into the 11th ranked passing offense. The run game blows but I can looking at what he's done RIGHT and think man the players might not be a good fit.
In what areas can you say that about Pettine? He's known for defense and this is the worst defense I've ever seen in my adult life which has regressed BADLY with a lot of the same players. He doesn't understand how to manage a clock and clearly plays favorites with players and has lost respect of his players. Again, I hate coaching change as much as the next dude but Pettine is miserable. I'd rather have insert no name coach than Pettine any day of the week.

Do we forget the Jets, Broncos, Rams, Cardinals, Steelers & Bengals squared where the offense fucking stunk? The passing game has put up numbers because there is no run game and the team is always trailing.

Titans win so Browns take the lead.

So we'll have the 1st overall pick in the draft......... What could possibly go wrong?

Draft Bosa who has 2.5 sacks his first year and 20 tackles, fans blame head coach Doug Marrone

Gee, that was fun. New CBS show... ER...CLE, geeze. I'm thinking it may be wisest to trade that no.1 draft pick for a bunch of draft picks. We gotta get an influx of some youth. FAs just ain't gonna cut it. The injury list is longer than Johnnys bar tab.... Can't kick FGs any more....cripes! sounds like a Jerry Garcia song...lol..but we need youth with speed and lots of bodys

I'm confident in saying in 2 drafts Farmer has drafted one average player, Shelton, in the first 2 rounds of the draft.

Hartline sliding like the 3rd string QB he is, Pettine probably told him not to score
Just like Manziel sliding on 4th down and coming up short against the Rams.Hartline sliding like the 3rd string QB he is, Pettine probably told him not to score
When the game is out of reach, it makes no difference.

The draft seems like a dice game anyway. Trade the 1 shrewdly of course for several more. Speed always kills so take the fastest and best player available. Pretty much won't matter what position either. We need em all....except qb! We keep getting stuck plugging hole with FAs that have good reputation but become fat and complacent. Banish all those fuckers and bring in youth that still have a hunger and haven't been able to spend too many of their millions yet

Yeah. Even if the browns beat the niners next week, they are pretty much guaranteed a top 3 pick since SD and TN are the only teams with 3 wins..

I expected 4-12 or 5-11 this season but 2-14 is a real possibility

Looks like a practice squad
What you missed it? The Browns played like a practice squad. Bengals treated the 4th quarter like a scrimmage.

Positive news Ag. I give you credit for sticking around. Many, many long time Browns fans have already given up and hit the golf course on Sunday.

Boy am I ever fucking glad we passed on Adrian Petersen and got this stud Joe Thomas.... man that fucking guy blocked us into the playoffs today. Hey, if that lard ass is so good, how come the Browns never have been able to run wide left?
The OL is FINE. Not having any skill players allows the D to tee off and know exactly where the ball will be. That wears down ANY OL.
i said this before, and I will say it again. The Browns need to find trade value fhor whoever has any, get the fuck rid of them, and fire the remainder of the team and staff.
There is not one player on this team, INCLUDING JOE THOMAS, who would start for the Steelers.
8 carries, 18 yards.
