  • If we aren't trying to win the Superbowl... I think we missed the point. Strive for greatness in all things.

    Ultimately? Sure, but if we think in terms of winning a SB in the near term and base decisions upon that, then we are fucking up.

  • Culture change.

  • I don't see us ending the regular season anything less than 16-0.

  • I'll go along with "progress" & I want to see more fundamentally solid play.......

    Solid tackling by wrapping a guy up & putting him on the ground.

    Running backs hitting a hole fast & hard. I'm not a fan of backfield dancing.

    It would also be nice to see a draft without so many off the wall surprises.

    As a Team, building cohesiveness within all units.

    POSITIVE GROWTH!

  • Haslams selling the team after going 0-18 would be success to Me.

  • Seeing good progress and development of draft picks. Seeing all our guys give 100% no matter how much or skill or lack off they have, hue should be able to motivate them. Lastly, not being the crap shoot of the league, and not getting slaughtered every other game.

    0-18? We're going to play a couple extra this year that we don't normally play?

  • As a fan that thought the same thing for 20 years "We the fans care more about winning than our Ownership & those that have run it." The Rebuild Process: never had a better moment than Jimmy Haslem admitting that he failed at one thing FOOTBALL. His hiring of Hue Jackson has me believing we can win again. Offensive minded & a knowledge of what makes a team competitive a QB. This Time we get the QB decision correct cause of Hue's knowledge of the position will get the right guy he can win with. Season Specific: Your words "Build through the Draft" prove It. Small Victories: We want Browns Fans in our Stadium. WIN!!...Go Browns!!

    That's one of the best teams in the league. We are one of the worst. Sure, anything can happen in a rivalry (and in an NFL game in general, which is why all you guys saying 0-16 are dumb), but on paper, this isn't going to happen.

    Also, there's a town in Texas named Pittsburg (no h).

  • Yeah, I want playoffs, the elusive Super bowl win, etc.

    Realistically, we need to learn how to win at home. Sweep the division rivals, make Browns Stadium a home field advantage place. We haven't done that since 2007.

    That could be like a penalty. You can't stop the season unless you win a game.

    There are also towns there named Atlanta, Jacksonville, and Buffalo. I went through them all on Rt. 79 I believe on the way from Texarkana to San Antonio. I even stayed the night in Atlanta TX.

    Well as my ole grandpappy used to say, "The're so bad this year they couldn't even beat North Zulch."

    Yep, it's there. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_Zulch,_Texas

    And just like the Browns they be dogs "home to the North Zulch High School Bulldogs. The 2A school is rich in tradition and history."

  • Y'all missed the obvious... Cleveland, Texas... up HWY 59 (I-69) from Houston, but still well south of Atlanta...
