Cleveland Browns - Back from the Dead

Michael Sam's gay.

These last four games have been painful to watch. It's been a rough ride but I hope that we are through that now.
Kizer is the QB, for now, and our mentality must be, next man up. I believe that the kid can do just enough to win. He must.
This is a must win. It's fourth and goal and we need a score to stay relevant. One way or another, either the Defense needs to awaken or the Offense needs to strike.
It's all hands on deck... only one team has ever started 0-4 and made the playoffs. You may scoff at the mention of the playoffs but this is what we play for.
If we can win, at home verses the born again Jets, we have a chance. I have faith, and that is what we need right now. Nothing is gonna get better unless we make it better. It's time- Make a stand, here and now.
We are getting MG back on the field. He's gonna have to be the heartbeat that pulls this team together, through his presence and his play. After Haden left this Defense needs that heartbeat back. Myles, can you do that?
I have a feeling that the Defense is going to have it's best game this year, they will swarm, they will attack and they will get Kizer AS MANY opportunities as it takes to win this game. Garrett, Ogbah, Orchard, Nassib, Shelton are gonna GO OFF! Collins has cleared concussion protocol and joins the squad. We are at the gates of Hell but the Goon Squad and the Hall of Pain are gonna make Tom Petty proud this Sunday.
We've got 12 games left but this is one is the only one that matters. It's playoff time in Cleveland, win or go home. One game at a time. Time to fire up!
...speaking of that, we need to let the NFL know that we want Josh Gordon back now. At the stadium we need to petition Goodell to reinstate Gordon. Make a chant, hold a sign, get attention to that issue. #FREEJOSHGORDON

Well, I kind of feel the same way, which is why I picked the Browns to win their first game of the year. I think the defense will be swarming, I think we'll FINALLY make some red zone stops, and I predict we'll get a touchdown from either our defense or special teams. We need a spark from SOMEWHERE. If you have Duke on a fantasy roster, I'd probably think about starting him because he's going to be catching a lot of balls. We'll be looking for him on many of our 3rd downs, and he has the hands to make some difficult receptions.
Don't be surprised if Jamie Collins goes absolutely bananas today. His body will be VERY fresh, and he'll be quicker than usual today. When he was out, we had nobody that could "win on a blitz". Well, Jamie is a guy who can definitely win, and I think he'll have a sack today. In fact, he might even be the guy who scores our defensive touchdown. We've gotten our hands on a few passes this year, either on the line or middle of the field, but we haven't come down with enough INT's. I mean, GOD KNOWS if the Browns are passing the ball and it gets popped up in the air, there's going to be a defensive player shooting out of nowhere to make a freaking amazing interception. Well, it's time we catch one of these deflections and not only secure it, but run that son of a gun back to the HOUSE.
I think the wildcard is Crowell. It's no secret he's completely ticked off, and we heard ALL DANG YEAR that we want to be a team that runs the ball, but it's kind of hard to do that when you're always down 100 points. If the game is close, and we can loosen the defense up with a few quick passes, we might be able to run the ball. We do that, and we're going to win the game. Josh WILL give us one or two chances at a big defensive play...we have to make them. If he fumbles it...we get it. If the ball gets deflected...it's ours. The opportunities will be there, they always are with him. It's freaking time.

Well, that last game was a must win. We were 0-4 and only one team had come back to make the Playoffs. The 92 Chargers.
Now we are 0-5 and entering the realm of -No team in NFL history has come back from this depth to make the playoffs.
...until the 2017 Legendary Cleveland Browns. At least that is the hope in Brownstown. How can the Browns make the Playoffs.
I thought that this would be a good thread to kind of talk about that prospect.
So, let's kick it off.
The Browns have lost a game to each of their division rivals.
This puts them at 0-3 in the division and a big reason we are down big right now.
The good news is we have a chance to make these 3 losses a wash by beating these same three teams the last three games of the season!
That would put us at 2 games behind both Baltimore and Pittsburgh and only 1 game behind Cincy.
We have lost close games to the JETS and the Colts. Both games were decided by 3 points.
The Bengals have a BYE so they will stay at 2-3
Pittsburgh plays the Chiefs - The Chiefs are 5-0 and could give Pit another loss.
The Ravens play the Bears - Let's hope Trubisky and the Bears can put it on Baltimore and give them a loss.
So when we get our first win and PIT and BAL lose, the Division race will look like this...
Team W L T
PIT 3 3 0
BAL 3 3 0
CIN 2 3 0
CLE 1 5 0
One play at a time, one game at time, one win at a time, let's not give up Dawgpound, we can do this.
BTW- The soccer team I coach just won the Championship today!
Let's Goooo!

This team is picking in the top 3 next draft, PoG.
Embrace the suckitude. Let it wash over you like a warm summer downpour.

Well then, a congrats to you!
......my son played some soccer in grade school. One time they put me in charge of setting up the field before a game. I tried to let them know that I knew friggin' nothing about soccer. (it just wasn't played when I was going through school) - So, being the one-on-one champ of varsity basketball, I made the center circle the same size as the tip-off circle at half-court.
BEING A BROWNS FAN IS A TEST TO SEE HOW MUCH YOU CAN TAKE -
The only way we pick top 3 is if Watson shits the bed, repeatedly. Cause we fittin to win baby.

We CAN beat BAL/PIT/CIN especially if Hogan is ready to take this opportunity by the balls. When we rematch these guys weeks 15-16-17 we will be a much better and a more matured team. I like our chances in those games and then next 3 weeks look winnable to me. Go into the BYE at 3-5 and we have a shot. But like I said, we have to win this week.
The road back to the Playoffs starts with the first few steps going in the right direction. Kevin Hogan and the UnderDawgs!!!!

Soccer wasn't around when you went to school?
Must have been a magical time then.

Now what do you suppose the Vegas odds would be on that parlay on winning the last three games?

We're not beating anybody with our offensive weapons. Hogan played absolutely terrible yesterday but I also saw people not getting open. Our WRs just aren't NFL caliber, and it's killing us. The one injury we just couldn't have was Corey Coleman. Since Britt mailed it in, we had nothing Corey. He went down, and that was that. And Corey isn't anything special but at least he can get OPEN.
And honestly, I'm not sure it really matters at this point because even if our guys got open, we don't have a QB on the roster who can accurately deliver the ball anyways. Kizer getting benched is going to have one of two effects. He's either going to use it as a motivator and get better, or he's going to be hesitant and suck worse. The smart money is suck worse because he still doesn't have jack to throw to.
