  • How much ya wanna bet that Josh Gordon lit up a doobie today.

    He'd rather be a car salesman.

  • Car salesmen blaze?

  • I think, unlike last season, we will see the team begin to improve. We should end the season better than the begining and that will likely translate to 3ish won games.

    What are you basing that on? This is no different than drunk-man Zomblow fantasizing about beating me up. In your brain, the team winning is the same Sheet, it is a nice vision, but who, and how?

    You think we will see them improve? Please, humor me, I know you guys hate to actually talk facts when it comes to depending your " I Thinks" and " In Sashi we Trust" crap, but please....tell me what you see............... Here is what I see.........................

    1) My complaint since Hue took over...........voluminous penalties..............has continued.....how is that magically going to stop?

    2) No offensive play makers, nobody that can cause opposing defenses to stop jamming the LOS....how is that magically going to change?

    3) Continued dropped passes.................About 20 in the last 2 games....how do you make a guy who has been catching footballs for 15 years suddenly catch?

    4) No quality QB. Kizer is Sockeyed, his run-first training has him exposed as another Black Tarkenton

    5) Sheet defense... Wow, WIlliams has the swarm to the ball................ while they stop nobody. Horton's D was better.

  • Always the optimist, I went with 1-4 wins....HA!...1 is lucky & 2 is a reach.

    Today was the first time in my almost 71 years that I left a game early....AT THE HALF!!!

    1) "We will run"...cowpoop!

    2) "We continue to get better"...cowpoop!

    3) What I see from our QB "guru" is Kizer regressing. I see no positive growth. He's throwing bullets at the ground!

    4) WHY do I see Britt returning to the field after drops & playing "bumper pool" with the ball bouncing to the opponents? If the vets can't play, then put the rookies in!

    5) "We'll learn from this".....How effin' long does it take you to learn, Hue?????????

    6) Am I pissed?....I'll give you one guess.

    I always tend to be positive, but I've been pushed too far. Hue needs to grab some face masks & remind these damned sissies what they are paid for...to block, tackle, catch, run. Seems simple, but it's tough to do without PRIDE, DETERMINATION, & EFFORT!!!

    Let's see how long it takes me to cool off from today's fiasco.

    I'm with you Mike. I stayed until the end- but it's the closest I've ever come to walking out early. 

    #7 Defense played like crap. 

    #8 Williams still had Peppers playing 17 yards off the LOS when we were down by 30, and the Bengals were running virtually every play to kill the clock. 

    Hue has to start holding players accountable for lousy play, and stop making excuses. BTW, bench Kizer and start Hogan- that is if you're interested in actually winning a game this year, and not securing another #1 overall in 2018.  MHO- we're winless going into the bye, Hue is done. 1-23 will do it. 

  • ZERO!  I have no faith in this franchise, or those in charge of evaluating talent!  Show me something, and I may change my tune!  Until then it's the same old BS!  We still suck, and in fact may have hit yet a new low, which I never even thought was possible!

  • 0-16. I actually picked the Bengals to win, but the beatdown was breathtaking. Tried to cancel my NFL Sunday ticket yesterday but the special offer's apparently closed, no worries I'll just pick a random team to watch on Sundays now.

    Being a dual fan with a start with Denver back in the 70's and the Browns more recently, at least I can go to the usually later Denver game to see how a real defense actually works most of the time. Will the Browns reach that on D? I still think that is possible. It's the O that I knew was going to struggle this year and that has not changed. Don't get me wrong though, cause I still don't like that centerfield position they have Peppers in. It sucks and is an experiment that needs to stop. We are playing 10 on 11 with that D.

    The use of Peppers in Williams' scheme is infuriating. He lacks the speed to play effectively where he's placed, if that was what they required from a safety they should've drafted Malik Hooker who's very fast. Peppers is most effective close to the line of scrimmage and if he was  placed there maybe no name tight ends wouldn't have record days against us.

  • Thanks! Figured someone did. 

    So Hooker was worth two 1st round picks?

    Not me... welcome back anyway... I guess...

    Don't act like you're not impressed.

    FYI I got Houston tickets.

    Aggies can squabble between and among themselves, but we always take care of our own.😁

    Go read my defenses of Michael Bennett on the political board. You can't just dis a good Ag and expect no comment.🙂

  • Uh oh. Most of the Ags I've seen on the boards have completely thrown him overboard. And given the fact that he seems to hate A&M, I can't argue with it.

    Cool... look forward to actually meeting.

    I'll be in the new, orange Joe T jersey. Wife will be in the JJ Watt #99... that ought to narrow it down for you... 😉

  • So far 22/31 (70.9%) voting for 1-4 wins, which makes sense as usually even the worst seasons in the NFL have one off win. Might be surprised at which game(s) the Browns pick up.
