Has there ever been a more pivotal/important season for the Browns?
-
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?
The Cleveland Browns have the hardest hit players in the NFL -
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.

Here are the actual facts concerning the potential "move" of any cities: First.....no team will be able to move until their lease expires. Cities/stadium owners etc. all learned from the Browns situation to make airtight, specific performance based leases. So, NO team will be moving until their lease would expire, so here is the lease expiration date for each team:
Buffalo lease expires 2023. But I am of the understanding that there is a new stadium proposal
Miami 2026
NY Jets 2032
New England 2026
Baltimore 2027
Cincinnati 2026
Cleveland 2029
Pittsburgh 2031
Houston 2032
Indy 2034
Tennessee 2027
Jacksonville 2030
Denver 2031
KC 2031
LA Chargers 2049...in the new stadium being built
Oakland.....lease up now, moving to Vegas...not sure about Vegas lease terms...will have to research
Dallas...2039 (though does not Jerry own the stadium?)
NY Giants 2032
Washington....there is no lease...and the Redskins pay no rent. The stadium is on National Park service land..and it is rent free...as long as used for recreation or entertainment
Arizona 2036
LA Rams there will be no lease on their new stadium, as the owner of the stadium is also the owner of the team.
San Franciso 2054
Seattle 2031
Atlanta 2047
Carolina....there is no lease at this point
New Orleans...2025
Tampa Bay 2028
Chicago 2033
Detroit 2037
Minnesota 2046

You all feed this troll way too much
That's so true but in the offseason its so tempting to do it and see what happens.
Like feeding the wild Canadian geese near your house when you know later they will just s.hit all over your car.

Dom gummit - I had coffee in my mouth when I got to that last line. Key word in that sentence is had.
I welcome the only Defensive Coordinator to earn a Superbowl Ring in New Orleans while understanding Revenge of the Nerds is a sequel. "Come get some!" -
ill have to.side with ghoolie on this one. They have to put something on the field worth at least a couple casual late night bar pig fuks. U know those ones where ur buddies already left as well as anyone that might know u and its essentially just u and some herd stock.
-
if they cant put out at least that......things could get super ugly again for clev football. Im not expecting them to win a whole lot if games but im expectibg competitive play. Im expecting sone 2nd and 3rd year players to break through and play meaningful fukking football.
that more tjan wins/losses, for me, determines how i feel about the coaching staff. And we'll see it early when the players are at their healthiest.
like nassib for example, if he hasnt made significant strides in technique as well as power/speed by his 3rd year.....some of that has to be put on the organization.

Notes on the above:
1. In reality, the two teams that could potentially be candidates at risk for being moved are the Bills and the Saints, because their leases end the soonest. I will have to check on the deal with a new Buffalo stadium. I am going to go out on a limb and say that they will not want to continue to play in the old stadium in Orchard Park....unless it is totally revamped, like they did in Chicago and Jax. Also....both Buffalo and New Orleans are two of the 3 smallest NFL market areas, Green Bay only being smaller.
2. Now, let's not be naive...NFL owners are among the greediest species on the planet, and if they think they can blackmail cities or make more money by threatening to move teams...they will be delighted to do so....as we have seen numerous times in the past. But, two things have to happen: A. a team must have a somewhat bad stadium situation....as we have seen with San Diego and Oakland...or there must be a greedy owner like Stan Kroenke who thinks he can make more money elsewhere even if the stadium situation he has is not bad. and B. you must have other cities that are vying to take on the burden of building a state of the art stadium to lure an NFL team there.
3. A. I am NOT aware of any city which has stepped up to say they want to make the investment necessary to bring a team there. Have any of you heard of any? The only talk I have heard is about London...or may Mexico City (Toronto? Tokyo?)
4. IF, IF, IF....all of the above somehow were to take place, it would not be until 2026....when 3 teams have leases that will expire, (besides Buff. and N.O): Miami, New England, Cincinnati.
The NFL ain't moving from the Boston or Miami area. And I think they like having Super Bowl games in New Orleans too much to let a team slip out of there....BUT......I would NOT put it past a turdball like Jerry Jones and some of his ilk to want to throw either Buffalo or Cinci under the bus.....and try to get them to move to what they perceive are bigger....better paying markets.
So...hell no, don't worry about Cleveland, so much as worry about our northern neighbors Buffalo or Cinci. The Jerry Jones like turdheads would say that Cinci fans can just become either Colts, Browns or Titan fans and that Buffalo fans can follow the Browns or Steelers.....or Giants/Jets.
One potentially logical location for a new or relocated team would be San Antonio/Austin.....but Turd Jones thinks that is his exclusive territory...so he would fight any relocated team going there. (but I know from having a daughter there....that SA is nowhere exclusive to the Cowboys....more and more are becoming Houston Texan fans)

Jerry Jones:

yeah im sure cincy, with their yearly competitiveness. are in danger of moving. Such a sht team they are vying for the afc north crown yearly.
