    If they really are " jobs" and they are significant, you will want to maintain anonymity. Most people with real money and great jobs do not want everyone to know. You become a target.

    Well, I do get paid, even if it is a pittance.  Everyone here knows what I do.  And it ain't that much money anyway, but even as meager as it is.....the only person I would be a target of is the tax man.😆

    I am sure you do quite well. These boards can be relief for those of us that have to live in a world where you have to be PC and play nice 24/7.

  • Serious or satirical, do you have a panic button suggestion with the Browns dropping to 2-5 in their predicted comeback season?

    For example, do you want to talk about:

    • Should they ditch the HC? If so, who do you see as a realistic replacement? When?
    • Is there a team philosophy/behavior issue that needs addressed? How so?
    • Are there drastic changes needed to the starting lineup or to the configurations/play calling?
    • Should we be looking at who we might want to acquire through trades or the draft in the spring?
    • Some other area not mentioned?

    Share now, and beat the rush!

    HC?  It needs to evaluated at seasons end.  I don’t dismantle the talent.  The leadership/coaching needs to be evaluated. 

    The staff is too cozy putting players in spots they can’t handle yet.  Just one example, For instance , Why is a guy like Antonio Callaway fresh off a self induced suspension given a significant role???  We have a football IQ problem maybe it’s youth too.  We may not have the right combination with veterans on this team, but the staff needs to pick it up in that case.

    play calling has been awful on too many occasions. We need Chubb as focal point and Baker under center more and not 5 wide.  Defense I think will improve now that we have corners who can contest passes and we aren’t giving large cushions.

    no trades but Let’s look at Tackle, Safety and Tight End upcoming draft.  

    We do a lot of mind boggling stupid things and Tony Romo god bless you for pointing it out often yesterday.

    Go back to your own forum. 

    I was born and raised in Cleveland. I have loved the Browns for longer than most of you have been alive.

    I could have sworn you replied earlier in the thread to tinythinker about how you would panic too if you rooted for the browns or even be from Cleveland..... ill never understand the need to lie on forums like this. 

    Edit here it is.  Looks like you tried to delete it to cover your tracks at least once you lied.

    I did not intentionally try to delete that. I am not great online and with boards. I was just having fun. Having said that, I don't want to live in Cleveland or Seattle. I want warm weather. You have to admit. It's a meltdown in here. It is hard to keep a straight face.

    I do love the Browns though. Terry Metcalf was a favorite back in the day.

    Well, considering that Terry Metcalf never played for the Browns....makes it clear that, again, you are just a poseur.  (as does the fact that you cannot recall the difference between Terry and his son Eric)

  • @coachtoad said:

    I know you are miserable.

    Why would you think that?  You are the one so apparently dissatisfied with your team that you take the time to come on to the board of a team that isn't even close to being a rival of yours?  Are you too afraid to troll the 49ers or Rams sites?

    I feel bad for you. The Browns are losing and Cleveland is a polluted dump.

    Have you ever even been here? What? Are you stuck in the 60s or 70s? There is very little pollution around Cleveland area anymore. I don't know about your education, but you are badly misinformed.

    The Hawks are 6-2 and are in the middle of a rebuild. We are not even playing good ball yet. Wait til we hit our stride! I pray that you can find a job and move soon. Good luck friend!

    I have 3 jobs, all while being semi-retired.  Good luck getting a life my friend.

    Thanks for the response Gipper. I thought that might get a reaction when I posted it. Cleveland is a nice place with nice people. I really should lay off the city. Everytime I hear thst stupid Cleveland song where thry mock the city, it pisses me off. 

  • The NFL is not ready to have the Browns be a good team period. You should never blame the refs but at what point do they not get a pass? If a person does a shitty job they get called out but the refs are not allowed to be called out? The refs can never even be named? BULLSHIT, They are just ready to flag us for every little thing they can think of yet Garret gets his helmet ripped off his head and there is NO flag thrown?  This is bullshit. Every game this season there were very questionable calls made against us and also in every game there were flat out calls that should of been made but since it was us the refs don't care. Enough is enough and the refs should have their feet held to the fire.

    Nice job! I love it. I have met Terry. He used to play at Ranier Beach jr. Football in the Seattle area.

    I evaluate the position.  If this stuff continues I may make a move.  We aren’t perfect but are wasting good player personnel 

    We need a leader first and foremost.  Let the new guy focus on the team- running a team - preparing a gameplan - managing personalities (we have some on this team) and not just  running an offense.  I would definitely find an O coordinator that has a history of tailoring  an offensive package that compliments Baker.

    Too early for the draft.  I’ve watched a lot of Big Ten football this year  - some guys I like probably available middle rounds Malik Harrison LB, Nico Collins WR.  We need to upgrade TE and OT and S. 

  • Ah don’t panic. 
     

    The AFC North is nothing but meat for the grinder this year anyway. 
     

    I prefer to look at it another way. 

    The Browns are the second youngest team in the league with the 5th most cap space. They don’t need to draft a QB next year. 

    The Bengals are in complete disarray.

    The Steelers Rapist is done and Mason Isn’t the answer 

    The Ravens have a RB for a QB that will never get them out of the first round of a playoff game on any year and they are one tackle away from having RG3 as their starter. 

    Whatever happens this year, I’d rather be in the Browns seat than any of the other three.

    Easy fix - discipline especially when it comes to turnovers. 

    310 to 318 yards.   3 turnovers vs the Pats 0.  That is the difference in these games.  Can't win consistently, let alone at all, when you live on the minus side of that differential. 

    eh...misleading.  We got our asses kicked.  the thing about having turnovers that go back for touchdowns and very short fields that lead to more scores and big leads is that they:

    1) reduce the number of possessions for the opposing offense

    2) give the other team a big lead(except for a brief moment when it was a 7 pt game it was a 17ish pt lead throughout) so they can play more conservatively...especially with that defense

    that's going to skew the final total yardage numbers.

    Again, we got our asses kicked.
