To win or not to win?

I could probably look this up but who gets the 1st pick if SF and the Browns are both 1-15? Either way, I definitely want the Browns to at least one game to avoid the dubious company of going winless. If it does happen though I'm not going to lose sleep over it.

They do. We have the highest strength of schedule - maybe in the league? Maybe I'm misremembering.

Been down this road many times. The logic is if the record is identical, the team that played the weakest schedule is "worse". That's the 49ers. There's additional tiebreakers if SOS is identical, but they won't come into play for the Browns.

If the Browns could win their last two games, especially kick pittspukes' cheapshot asses...
I want that. You could get Trubisky anyways, maybe Allen or Garrett anyways...and it would charge up the confidence
to start winning next year.
This year, even losing to the Chargers, and somehow beating the squealers in their last game (Kessler would have to come in...)
....would make for a great end to a dismal season.

As Al Davis used to say....."just win, baby!"

Win. I don't see it happening though. Chargers score points, and we struggle in Pitt.
Pitt poses a huge dilemma...assuming Pitt has the division locked up and Tomlin rests the starters for the Browns game.
You lose to Steeler second stringers you feel sick to your stomach.
You beat their 2nd stringers but still come out with an empty or "incomplete" feeling in your stomach...plus potentially giving up the first pick for those that think that matters.
I'd probably want to beat their 2nd stringers and take the asterisk. Screw the first pick.

Nah Z, it's not like I'm hoping that they don't win- my thinking is they're so bad, they CAN'T win. Current Vegas odds are 62% they pull off 0-16. BUT- if the Steelers beat the Ratbirds Christmas night, in all likelihood they'll rest their starters against the Browns New Year's Day. To not be able to beat Pittsburgh's scrubs would be the ultimate and crowning achievement of an O-fer.

Interesting, an asterisk.... and take the asterisk. Screw the first pick.
I don't see any asterisks for the Steeler win in 1978 when Steelers fumbled the OT kickoff and Browns recovered.
I don't see an asterisk when Lynn Swan spit in Ron Boldens face on a GW TD catch in 1979.
I don't see an asterisk from the Immaculate Deflection or the referee-gate SB win over Seattle.
Damn, I got issues. Cracking open some Jim Beam now.
Merry Christmas anyway.

Do you WANT the Browns to win at the risk losing a spot in the draft or not?

Z, I always want the Browns to win. The objective part of me says they won't. This season has been such a downer- I don't even get upset anymore when they lose. I won't even get upset if they finish 0-16, I don't see much difference between no wins or one or two. We're already a National Sports joke. If they fall to #2, they're either going to get Garrett or Trubiski. Please don't trade out of that spot- if you want to go fooling with the Eagle's pick, I'm OK with that. Sure I want Mitch- it would be another Bernie Kosar story. He may not even declare. Though if the Browns are drafting #1 and tell him come on home kid- it may sway his decision.

It sure would be nice to have something good to talk about this weekend. Even Vegas wants them to win.

But on the other Homo board, the vote was a lot closer.
