Has there ever been a more pivotal/important season for the Browns?
-
Every season is pivotal in my mind.. You are only as good as the year that preceded the last year.. Every year.. At least to me.. You wipe the slate clean and start from ground zero.. That the approach I would take.. Every team and athlete is constantly proving themselves.. It's just how life is.. Not only in Football.. but in careers as well..

You all feed this troll way too much
That would explain his staunch waist line.

Yes it's pivotal. There's fans like us, who attend, watch through thick and thin. Maybe not so pivotal for we kind of fans.
It's certainly pivotal for the fence sitters. Fans who got turned off by the losing, Haslam, or Hue. This season could reel them back in.

Well said, but not all Fans either LIVE in Berea (you), or were BORN there (me)! ?

ummmm, let's see. . . . There is a new QB and a new coach calling the plays. Isn't that the same every year? I would just like to see some progress and some results to build on.

Yea, as Yogi said, "Its Deja Vu all over again.
And I guess some reference to Groundhog day is appropriate. Which is why I say it is not that high on the "pivotal season" list.

Forget commentary about what the team needs to do, or fix, or any of the analytical schidt. Can you recall or cite a more crucial season than this one?
Should all you guys be correct and the team does well, and I don't know what " well" would mean. 7 - 9 or better I think paints the team as WOW, and makes the year enjoyable, and the Browns and off season story.
4 - 6 wins leaves the Browns as the most boring, lackluster, uninteresting football team in the history of the NFL.
3 wins or less ( Camp Ghoolie) and you have the official laughing stock of all professional sports. 3 wins or less, and Haslam will get out of town. 3 wins or less, I think moving this schidtpile becomes inevitable.

Win win situation. If they win 9 or more games, we see postseason football. If we win 7 or less, Hue is gone & a better coach is in.

What basis do you have for believing 7 wins means Hue is fired? Seriously, there is no logic to back you up. Hue went 1 - 15 and kept his job. He then went 0 - 16 and kept his job. So your logic is if he goes 7 - 9 he loses his job? Dude, look at this numerically.............
1 - 15 - Keeps Job
0 - 16 Keeps Job
7 - 9 Gets Fired?
WTF drug are you on?

2 - 14 or some such crap, Haslam will sell and the team WILL face being moved. This IS the most pivotal season the Browns ever faced. Their first year in operation and first year in the NFL were dull, unimportant, low stress. Nobody expects much from a 1st-year team. The future of the fake Browns in Cleveland ride on the success of 2018. Just watch.

The ignorance is palpable. The Browns can't leave for many many years due to their lease. And Jimmy can make money hand over fist whether or not the team wins or not. So why the hell would he sell

Haslam move the team? That I couldn't see. But SELL the team. THAT I wouldn't rule out totally...because of constant bad press following mounting losses (W/L that is). I mean, Haslam has really done nothing but brought the team to record badness...and ugliness. HE needs wins almost as bad as Hue. - and he's sold / selling his fuel / price gouging business.

Look at the roster additions. Furthermore, Hue isn't Dorsey's " Guy".

Leases are made to be broken. It's definitely possible.

Yes, it is.
Lets face it, the Browns have had a transnational off season. The offense where the struggles have originated, has been totally revamped. The only area where there is uncertainty is at WR - besides Landry. Louis is done. Coleman and Gordon production would be icing on the cake. I bet Higgins has a better season with Taylor throwing that ball. The great news on Callaway is encouraging, but lots of guys look awesome in practice. If Dorsey pulls the trigger, signing Dez Bryant is sure going alleviate some of the concern at that position.
Pittsburgh game 1 will be a Win.
New Orleans game 2 will be a loss. Its typical to have a let down after a big win.
2 wins per every 4 games would be great and if you can steal a couple of wins 10 - 6 likely gets you in the post season.

The NFL stepped in and restarted the Browns. Loaned the city money for a new stadium.
There would be a $hitstorm if anybody tried pulling another Modell/Ravens move. Where would they go? What other city is ready for a team?
Saint Louis doesnt give a crap about football. Its a baseball town. so no point moving there since 2 modern day NFL teams have already closed up shop. San Diego would not build the Chargers a new stadium and they go way back together.

Haslam needs to back away & let Dorsey do his thing with not playing the middle man (himself,Jimmy Hasbeen) Go back 4 years and add up the small pocket change his GM's have burned on Jimmy's dollar. My far that's not been on Jimmy but on his dollars. What ever happened to that AJ McKaren Jimmy hug? Maybe Dorsey is leading Jimmy to some Day light? It's Jimmy's job to get the GM's. He's got a damn good one imo. Head Coaching hires, should be made by Dorsey. Dorsey looks to be Haslams best hire to this point to burn more money but, maybe to good use. My next coaching staff is coming into focus..A) HC-Haley B)OC-Lincoln Riley C)DC-Clyde Simmons..Jimmy needs to fully turn the keys to Dorsey & Lets get to winning..again..I can't see Haslam selling out now. But he needs to quit selling out on his own Cleveland Browns

The Cleveland Browns make good money for its owner. Cleveland makes good money for the NFL. The Cleveland Market is larger than any market that the Browns could move to.....the only ones that may be close are Sacramento, St. Louis, Portland, Salt Lake and San Diego. NONE of which have or are even contemplating building an NFL caliber stadium. And even IF one of those cities were out trolling for a team......they would have to wait at least 10 years to even think about the Browns.

True. And in 10+ years the NFL and other sports and entertainment venues might look different than they do today.
