I would think most fans had enough foresight to realize THIS was the rough season and it's only going to get better.
If you held on to your tickets this year, when you KNEW they were going to suck ... why abandon now when the plan begins to to start to fruition?

Prolly the shock of 0-16 vs. maybe an expected 3-13 takes time to assimilate.
I knew the Browns were going to suck going into this year, but not quite this bad.Prolly the shock of 0-16 vs. maybe an expected 3-13 takes time to assimilate.
BUT, when you take a step back and look at things, 0-16 isn't too far removed from 3-13.
At this point of the season, will winning a meaningless game change anything?
If it gives us a chance to improve our draft stock...so be it.
0-16 here we come!
-
0-16 is fine if everyone knew that was the plan.
but to think that they might draft better and look more productive in basic categories: blocking, tackling, catching, running and discipline then it's a bigger fail than in past regimes coming in after a clean sweep.

Better question is how does this organization keep it's once loyal fan base intact? I've never seen the apathy at this level. It will be interesting to see who would consider renewing tickets, plus remain a fan. I'll always be a fan.

A winning season or two will cure that. But until that actually happens, good luck

Won't even take that. A winning record after about 6 games would do it I reckon.A winning season or two will cure that. But until that actually happens, good luck

People are fickle. After nine games of 2014, everybody loved the browns. Then it all went to shit and the mob was calling for the heads of farmer and pettine. Then Hue Jackson came in and everyone loved the browns again! Now the mob is...anxious. A winning half season will draw in fans as surely as a long losing stretch will drive them away.

What's funny is how everyone wants to blame farmer. Jimmy was pulling his strings all along. It's pretty much a given around here that haslam was playing gm and coach. The texts, the homeless dude and all the other bone head picks are on the owner. Ray was a well paid puppet to keep his mouth shut. And then the good mice all ran away

The first 4 picks of this draft may tell us all we need to know about winning yet & the risk Sashi is willing to take with or without this owner..The ticking Time Bomb on Talent around here better start with 26 draft hammers in 2 years. Lets Quit bending the Nails..

Big day today for ole Jimbo. He has to give a deposition regarding his execs all being crooks but not him. This will be the first time he has commented on that whole mess of a team....er company. Verrrrry interesting.

He'll throw Dee under the bus, "She makes all my draft picks and business decisions."

Dee likes having sex in the back seat of the car. That's when she lets Jim drive.

Agree, but frankly its all the losing that's clouding people's brains.
Long time fans have been waiting, mostly patiently, for a turnaround and this season happens.
Folks 30 & younger have seen just a few winning seasons.
I've been pissed about all the changes in the coaching ranks, front office, trading down in the draft, but survived.
I'm more pissed about losing a home game, and training camp moving south.Bad timing by Haslem, Goodell.

La Canfora article... so it must be true...
And includes Jason's obligatory number of shots at the organization...
On a serious note... How could it be any other way?
Regardless of what is said, I believe that Hue will be let go on Jan 2 or so. It will be Brownhog Day once more. The firings have been so regular and predictable that probably no decent candidate would accept an offer to be HC of the Browns. Terrible waste of team legacy, fan base, and above all, draft picks. Hue probably could produce a winner eventually but the organization lacks patience and the ability to draft and develop talent. It is tragic and near criminal.La Canfora article... so it must be true...

If they only would get people who could scout, draft, and develop players, any head coach they had would look a whole lot better.

Honestly not getting that impression at all.

As much as I love the classics... rock, jazz, classical... there comes a time when I get tired of hearing the same old thing.
I am officially there now with calls for and/or predictions of Hue's and/or the FO's impending demise.
If my math is correct that's four combos and ought to about cover it...

LOL, & for the record. I wonder what Jimmy is going to do when he gets a load of this feedback. The Browns just sent out a fairly lengthy email "How we doing" survey to all the season ticket holders. Needless to say, I opened fire with both barrels. Both in the 1 to 10 strongly disagree\agree category, (if you think I dished out plenty of 1s, you'd be correct) and I blasted them in the free text comment section too. I would doubt I'm the only one who has an extremely negative view on how this season has gone down. In fact, I'll bet I'm in the majority opinion.
Q- What can we do to improve the overall fan experience? A- Duh, like win some games maybe? Told 'em I'm pretty fed up shelling out money to watch garbage.

LOL! Why would they even need to ask when the answers back will be so obvious. They would have been better off just admitting that 0-13 really sucks and was not their goal, but that the front office has learned a lot through mistakes made which will not recur in the upcoming FA period nor the 2017 draft.
