    You should... you've been collecting 1st-round DLs for years now... 4 of the last 5 IIRC...

    Damn near approached Matt Millan's fetish for WRs...

    You're going to see a lot of 2 TE sets from us... no way we are letting our OTs face Bosa and Ford without a heavy dose of chipping

    If that's the case, you'll likely see a lot of Dre Greenlaw, LB #57. Rookie Backer, has played well, but has been susceptible to play action.

    LOL RE Millen. 

    Yeah...difference is all but one of them is playing really well (Solomon Thomas being the exception).

    Millen does get grief for that....but he did draft Megatron.

    SF has played the Bengals, the Steelers and the Bucs.... After watching that MNF game last night I can’t take any of there numbers seriously...(just like the Ravens numbers...)

    if the Browns play like they did against the Ravens, get all their players back from last week and pick up a defender or two off the injury list...

    I’m feeling good about this one too.

    Can only play the games on the schedule.

    Ya.... not really what I’m talking about....

    And Lamar had how many of those?  He’s a bottom 5 “thrower” probably a Top 5 running back yes running back in the league 

    The Niners attack and style more in tact with what the Rams do.  

    Yes, tho the Niners rank 2nd in rushing and the Rams rank 22nd.

    Certainly, a lot of that is situational, but Niner run game has been far more effective this year than LAs. I like McVay and I can't pretend I'm not biased, but I think Shanahan is BY FAR the better playcaller of the two.

    Shanahan is an excellent playcaller, a very good OCoordinator. He's one of those coaches that schemes for his talent AND the opposing defenses very well.

    Shanny was one of my favorite Browns coaches.  He had 13-14 games a year where he put the team in much better place to win.  What I can remember He was good for two or three head scratchers (did his neighbor scout for him that week?) - hopefully we see one of those games

    Sometimes even the best get "outschemed"... so you just tip your hat and move on.

    I think you'll agree that we have a DC that can do that.

  • No real change in this game.

    But next week the BROWNS are already a 2.5 favorite vs Seattle in Cleveland a 1 pm game.......what no primetime? I was just getting used to it.  😆

  • FRIDAY AFTERNOON - Cleveland had slightly moved up to a +4 underdog on MNF and is still a -2.5 favorite next week at home vs Seattle.  http://www.vegasinsider.com/nfl/odds/las-vegas/?s=1442

    Here's a peek at some additional games next week including Cincinnati +9 at Baltimore and Pittsburgh +5.5 at the LAC......... just FYI.

  • Saturday AM -. The BROWNS were at +3.5 then +4 and a few places now CLE +5, a lot of people think either SF is a good bet -or- that CLE is not take your pick.  More in link........  http://www.vegasinsider.com/nfl/story.cfm/story/1984334

    “We had a guy come in last night (Thursday) taking the Falcons +5 that pushed us down to Texans -4 now and he also took the 49ers -3.5 (vs. Browns Monday night) and we’re at -4 now,” said DiTomasso, who also mentioned this particular bettor has respected money, which means he usually moves a number his way regardless of risk on the game..
     
    The 49ers are the third undefeated team (3-0) they and come off a bye while the Browns only two wins and covers have come on the road. The only Las Vegas book not at -4 on Friday afternoon was the Mirage at -3.5 -120.

    I think all of this tells us what we already know...we're in for a war, and if I was a betting man, I'd probably take the 49's. Off a bye, rested, and with our injuries? Add in that while we played better, we're still not quite the machine we hoped for just yet. Does that mean we can't win? Of course not, but we have to play REALLY well, and I hope we're up for it.

    For the life of me, I can't see how the Browns are being favored against the Seahawks. Seattle getting 12 days rest after their Thursday night game, and the Browns on a short week playing the 49ers. Hell's bells, the Browns won't even get back to Cleveland until early Tuesday morning. 

    I don't see how in the world the guys making up the schedule thought that was in any way fair....  

  • SUNDAY AFTERNOON - The BROWNS are pretty much CLE +5 on MNF and still about CLE -2.5 next week at home vs Seattle.

    And Russell Wilson has been playing out of his mind this season, too. 

    This is going to be a tough one. 

  • While I know I've been shown data that it's not a factor, I still "fear" traveling to the PT zone from the ET zone...

    Anyone know our departure date?

    I don't know.  If I was in charge we would have left on Friday after practice.  That said, it is harder to adjust going east.

    Let's hope that turns out to be true for Seattle.
