Peter King on the Browns
-
i think the fans and city of cleveland would DEFINATELY do a better job as owners than you current owner. the drive of a team inevitably comes from the top down and your owner is driven only to have the browns be profitable (wich they are seeing as how you guys still are filling the stadium and buying merchandise) not champions.
the best thing you guys could do to either 1. put pressure on him to sell the team or 2. put pressure on him to put more emphasis on winning than being profitable.
and the best way to put pressure on a owner?
his pocket........
you guys need to stage a walkout at a game or all stop buying browns gear.
christ, the browns storied loyalty is the best thing that ever happen to this business decision.
i mean, who else would be loyal (or stupid, depending on who you ask) enough to continue standing by their team and selling out the stadium even after an entire decade of putrid football play with no end in sight?
take my advice and hit him in his pocketbook.......you'd be surprised at how fast and often the browns are going deep into the playoffs.

A city, or a large group of fans can't buy shares and purchase a NFL team.
The Packers are the only team who has that set-up, and that is the way it was when the team formed and was grandfathered in to the current rules of ownership.
You want to quit going to games, go for it, but quit being a nimrod by thinking many around here are going to boycott games. You sound foolish.

It would be nice to get a salty old veteran in to push Quinn a little, this is going to end up as a no contest in deciding QB's
DA has always choked under pressure, nothing new DA is more than likely done here.

I feel so bad for DA here. I just want to cry.
After all, I root for the BROWNS. -
DA Sucks. And yet BQ can still not seem to distance himself in the competition. Everybody said BQ would blow DA away in a fair compeition, have not seen that so far. People said that the new system favored BQ over DA, yet he still can't take control of the number one spot. Say what you want but it seems to me that what you are mostly saying is that it is not really a compeition that BQ will get handed the job and not really earn it. That says as much about BQ as it does DA.
Go with the DA sucks rant all you want but I have seen nothing that would make me think that BQ is going to do any better. As a matter of fact the stats say that he will do basically the same. If BQ starts what should we expect? In this position DA got the Browns to 10 - 6 with the 30th ranked defense in the league. I would venture to say that the defense this year will be improved on 30th place ranking. The Browns have a easier schedule, better line and a offense that most have said is made for BQ. How do you really think he will perform? I doubt it will be any better than what DA would do.
And that is what bothers me the most. Jump on DA all you want as he has more of a sample size but I would be real real reluctant to jump on the BQ bandwagon.

Peter King says we are horrible, then give me the Browns being 7-9 or better cuz I'm betting we surprise and he called for us to be bad in 07 and we surprised. This way we can all be in line to be first to say "I told you so"

When a city catches a river on fire, there are provisions in some constitution - somewhere - that demands they are banned from owning anything.

Peter King is never high on the Browns, he said virtually the same thing in 07, yet was all over our nuts before the 08 season. The guy is a lemming plain and simple.But it's good news he doesn't get "good vibes" from us. Very good news indeed.
Is that his professional analysis, "good vibes". Does he have a "vibe-o-meter" that he takes with him to different training camps?
Exactly, we saw the debacle of last season and from what I remember King writing before the season was we were SB bound or some shit, can anyone find that to compare to this article? I drank his piss colored koolaid, this guys predictions are absolute garbage! Maybe its good the vibe at the camp isn't easy cream puff, double roll, Romeo style. Maybe its good these guys aren't in nonchalant lazyboy land! We saw where it got us and anyone who watched the hard knocks shows and Wade Phillips Cowboys cream puff style preseason know what happened to them. Peter King is a douche bag, I take no stock in what he writes anymore.

Actually, what occurs when that happens is that the U.S. Congress passes the Clean Water and Clean Air Acts.
And that IS what happened.

Have they played a real game in this "competiton"?
Seeing as how DA has 23 NFL starts, been in the league for 4 years already, if he was better than BQ, shouldn't he have distance himself?
This is about the franchise needing to determine if BQ is the answer or they have to move forward with finding a franchise QB. DA has already shown he is not.
