Is this a playoff team?

The Browns Board
71 24 3.2k 1
  • Remember they have 5 to 6 wins last year if not for the qb.  Tyrod is an upgrade so 6 to 7 win realistically then at the end of the season darnold starts working in.  Next year I say wild card maybe division but the biggest hurdle is cohesion along the offensive line.

    They could not make the NCAA Playoffs. Alabama, Clemson, OSU, Michigan, Penn State and LSU would ALL beat the 2018 Cleveland Browns 2 out of 3 times. This team will not win 4 games.

    You realize Hogan will be gone right? Signing Stanton was the kiss of death for him. Just a matter of time 

    At best the Browns will try and stash Hogan on the Practice Squad. I looked, and he's still eligible. Camp arm, and nothing more....

    ^^jcam222, Realize Poe'g owns a post flame thrower?🥷 he realizes nothing..... Am not willing to toss next seasons 1st rounder due to promising LT draftees..But I'd be willing to throw most the 5th,6th & 7ths in this one & next years 2nd & 3rds.. to stay in top 4 to 5 rounds of this Draft..   

    Regarding Po- he lives in a fantasy world where the only reason Hogan isn't a starting QB in the NFL is because he's unfairly been relegated to third string on the Browns.... And Saquon? Sheeze, gonna set the rookie- (if not all time) records for rushing and touchdowns. 

    Gumby- this may well be a deep draft- but I'm not willing to put all my draft eggs in the 2018 basket. What if some of our picks this year don't pan out? What if some of the guys on the roster  either under perform, or just flat out arent good enough. Plenty of players to choose from in that category.

    H, get use to Dorsey. He left no rocks unturned in KC & no Draft picks to better Chiefs with Alex..I want no rocks left unturned when Hue Jackson is handed talent & He either wins or walks the plank..I'd even be willing to find a trade partner on WR smurf Gary Coleman to get Christian Kirks as a additional 2nd Round pick..If we must.. a 3rd Round wide receiver has hands not made of glass🙂

    Pretty accurate assessment really. 

    I believe in Hogan as a tireless worker, a leader and a genuinely good person, much like I view Saquon. I guess that's why I can get behind these guys because I trust that they will put the work in that I would put in. They will give their all to be the best they can be at what they do. 

    I didn't say that Saquon is perfect, or say that he would break all the records. I think that Saquon, just being Saquon- is enough. He is a phenomenal talent, and incredibly- he still has untapped potential. He's a homerun hitter, but you will strike out from time to time.

    We could have won so many games if we just had that one big play. It doesn't sound like much, I know. I make it sound like IF Corey Coleman catches a ball for a big gain that that counts. No, it's the play that drops your jaw and you shake your head. It's the play that you look at your friend and neither of you need to say a word- because what you just saw was special. It's the play that makes every player on the sideline believe that we can win this game. 

    A Quarterback is only necessary to distribute the ball to the players that make the plays. That and to avoid giving the ball to the other team. It's no surprise or anomaly that the years that we had some success we had big playmakers and an average QB. 

    You guys- the media included, make the QB position way too important. The object of the game is to get the ball across the goal and stop the other team from doing it. Really guys, that's it.

    As my boss said to me once "I don't care how hard you work I care about results"    I have no doubt Hogan is a tireless worker and good guy, unfortunately his ability to deliver results is capped well below the necessary level  

  • The football gods could shine on the Browns.

    You dont wish for injuries, but if Ben goes down for 2018 the Steelers are done. Harbawl and Lewis are both on the hot seat because of poor performances.

    Not only is Roethlisberger getting near the end, but this will be Antonio Brown's 9th season. 

    Their window for a title is closing. Problem is, their biggest nemesis in the AFC could be on the downswing too.

    The Bengals are beatable, L. Bell is a multimillionaire crybaby jock, how sad. Big Ben is one hit from extended time off as A. Brown my star FL player is starting to show dings!

    Yeah the BROWNS could possibility win 4 games and if the ball bounces right more, they desperately needed WR help and should have a loaded draft. 

    Oh and I'll pass on the Jose Cuervo but will take cash or travellers checks. 😁

    A stopped clock is right twice a day. Ghoolie logic: Browns have sucked for the last 20 years, therefore, they will suck this year too. The draft hasn't even happened yet and he's predicting a win loss total? I'd like to have his crystal ball spit out the winning Powerball numbers for me. 🙂

    Improved? WTF are you drinking, dude. The Browns are 0 - 16. They haven't played a fukcing game or added a single top-eschalon player. Every fukcing year you bring your wrinkles butt out here and slobber on about how we have beeter playes, a better management team, better philosophy, and blah blah blah fukcing blah............ Every year since 199 you do this bullschidt, and NOT ONCE............... EVER............... have you been correct.

    You talk about "we already have wins in the bag?" I guess those teams we have in the bag will just not show up on game day?

    This team is as big of a bag of schidt than it was in 2017.

    You like to blabber about BETS? OK, tell me which teams you guarantee we have a win against? You said we already have wins in the bag? $2,500 says you can't name the guaranteed wins. THere is your bullschidt Larry. Tell us, which wins are in the bag already?

    I'll tell you that when you take the $1,000 bet  & my $100 the Browns aren't drafting Lamar Jackson that's floating around & you're so damn sure we are, so cut the crap. As far as me being correct- I lost the survivor pool two years ago in the Super Bowl on point differential. How did I do it?  Predicting every team the Browns were playing was going to win. For the record smartazz, I've never been as optimistic as some of the rah rah guys. 

    Draft isn't even here yet- of course your crystal ball says the Browns are going to screw it up again. If you want to post more doom and gloom- fine. Just getting rid of turnover machine Kizer should be good for a win or two. You're saying 4 wins? OK, I can see that- September is still a long way off.

    When it comes to the Browns, the only thing I'll bet is that the Browns will not make the playoffs. Watching the playoffs last year, I couldn't help but agree with Mike Polk: "It's like they're playing a different sport than we are." After 20 overall years of Sheet football, I'm not holding my breath that that is suddenly going to change.

    And yes, it's a little early for Ghoolie to be making a prediction for next season. But, looking back over the last 8-9 years, there is no denying that his win/loss predictions have been dead on. Not defending Ghoolie---just stating a fact.

    The BROWNS making the 2018 playoffs would be the NFL story of the year, decade whatever the ultimate worst ever to first story. Realistically they have little shot UNLESS everything fell exactly right and with some real lucky bounces.

    If you wont bet me with Ghoolies blessing, then you dont have much faith in his latest prediction.

    Why?

    I doubt he predicted Hoyer getting hurt and that 7 win season, but if you happen to run across that post, Id take a look at it. You dont need to work in the Caesars Palace odds room to predict that rookie NFL QBs will struggle to win straight out the draft 

    I like my chances of Cleveland winning 1 game in every 4 game quarter x 4. I think that they can do even better than that.
