Browns at Bungholes and our 1st win

The Browns Board

  • Marvin will probably get moved to a management position, general management type role - if Mike Brown allows it.

  • Lewis is a good coach. Hopefully Hue turns out to be good enough to keep around 12 years or however many seasons Lewis has been there. He reminds me of Schottenheimer. He gets the most out of his team every year, but they don't have World Championship talent, so that's the coach's fault.

  • From reading in the summer, the plan *was* for Marv to carry on a few more years, then move upstairs to a personnel role, and Hue to take over, but Hue got itchy feet waiting for Marv to retire.

    Why wait around to coach the pretend Browns when you can coach the real ones?

    I will say today ... At 0-6 .. that Hue is Easily going to be our best decision, player or coach, since 1999.

    We'll see. Supposedly his daughter Katie Blackburn is pretty much running the show now.

    Interesting parallel in Marty... our HC who had the rep of failing in the playoffs.

    Cinci has had its share of talent under Marv. Let some slip away this off-season especially at WR... not to mention an OC change. The weird thing is what is going on team discipline wise.

    Discipline was severely lacking when he came into the job and it persisted for a couple seasons. Then after settling down it's made a big comeback the past two years and now is being enabled. Marv officially saw nothing wrong with Burfict's shot at Bennett's knee this past Sunday.

    Seriously? You expect that to happen? Joe Haden in prime could handle AJ Green....but he is hurting.

    Hard to say I expect it to happen, but it may happen. The key to the game in my opinion is our DBs (maybe every game in '16).

    This is a game Cincy has to have in order to get back in contention in the AFC North. Hue knows their tendencies, so I do expect a close, low scoring game.

    Understand.....Pisstown without BR is half of what they were. They could lose the next 3-4 games before they play the Browns.

    Baltimore, imo, really is NOT all that. Both Cincy and Pitt (with BR) are better.

    I said only 1 AFCN team will make the playoffs. I pretty much stick to that.

  • Well one man's opinion Friday version. ......

    .......The Bengals came off their bye week and ran into a pair of buzz saws: Dallas and New England, on the road. Those teams are each 5-1. Theyve combined for 10 wins. Dallas one loss was by 1 point, and New Englands only loss came when they had to start a rookie QB with a broken thumb. Oh, and Cincinnatis other two losses were against first-place teams Denver and Pittsburgh.

    Killer schedule!

    The Cleveland Browns are 0-6. For Cincinnati, this is a major class drop and a return to their home field. That makes it kill time, step on the gas, dont stop until the final gun goes off......

    SO it comes down to one thing "do you feel lucky punk, well do ya'?".....

    ......OK so maybe that was Dirty Harry but do you feel lucky this week? How about with 10 points? CLE +10, he'll yeah why not!

    Our best shot for a win in the first 8 games. A definite maybe.

    Our best shot???....I thought that was the Eagles....then the Skins......then the Titans.....

    Our best remaining shot. Fixed it.

    I divided the season into season 1 and season 2. I expected nothing in season one other than a ton of rookies trying to find their way into the starting lineup. Season 2 starts with the Cowboys. I expect to get a lot more competitive for those games. We shall see.

  • Not unusual to split wins with that other team. They struggle on both lines, no pressure on defense,special teams lackluster, no run game-We win easily.

    i'm sure this exact same statement is posted on the bengals board.

  • I hate Marvin and his Thuggeries! But the Browns have the worst defense I've ever seen! How's Justin Gilbert doing in Pittsburg? Ugh!

    Dalton will light it up against the most befuddled bunch of losers in the league. If Tyler Eifert plays and is 100% then add two more touchdowns to the final score!

    Hue Jackson has abandoned the run game and you can say goodbye to Crowell for the rest of the season. The Bengals know this of course and will shut down Kessler as he checks down to Duke Johnson because Pryor is questionable. No Pryor, no run game no defence no win this week!

    Bengals 31

    Browns 10
