    Why on earth do you think the Browns players have a better chance of getting better? The reality is you change coaches more than Antonio Brown changes his hair. There is literally zero to suggest the Browns staff will have a better chance of player development no matter where the players were drafted. You expect these things to happen with the Browns but not with one of the most consistent teams in the NFL. It makes zero sense. 

    We finally have a coaching staff that drafts *football players" and not just terrific athletes on paper.

    Meanwhile, go suck another egg:

    I expect the Browns young players to get better because I believe they are more talented than those who were drafted by the Steelers. Simple as that. And yeah the reason they are more talented  is because the Browns have always been little higher draft station because they’ve had terrible coaches and managers. But now I hopeThat they have quality managers and quality coaches. They can’t do much worse than Freddy in the coaching box.

    Draft stock does not define talent. Tj Watt was drafted at 30. Antonio Brown was a 5th rounder and I could go probably 30 more just off the top of my head with the steelers and other teams. There is literally zero to indicate the Browns will have a better go at developing players than the steelers. Draft stock means zero if you don't properly evaluate.

    Right that’s what I said in the past they have not done a proper job evaluation     now a different sheriff is in town.

    You mean DePodesta and Berry? 

    Seems like one has been a sheriff in town for years now, and the other is on his second tour of duty.

    I'm reserving any enthusiasm for this group until I see reason for it. 

  • @vagitron said:

    It's just how gip puts it down when he's talking to me.

    Yes...I put down facts....you put down wishes and hopes. 

    I don't know if this is how he talks when taking the steelers with everyone or just when he talks to me.

    Everyone...trust me, you are no one I treat special.  (Most of the Spermsucker suckers don't come around...at least you do that. )

    I'm turning over a new leaf and going to do my best to be civil but gipper has made it pretty clear on now countless occasions he doesn't watch a lot of division football unless it's the Browns.

    What is clear that you don't even know your own team as well as I know your team at times.  

    The Steelers have a very good roster

    They may have a good roster...or what they have is an 8-8 i.e mediocre  roster when they do not have an HOF QB playing for them. 

    and a team culture the Browns nor the Bengals possess.

    Yes, they have had a team culture better than the Browns and Bengals....but you know what a good culture consists of?   A quality coach/asst. coaches...like Cowher/Tomlin/LeBeau/Munchak and a good QB.  Obviously things the Browns have not had.  But that may have changed. 

    Hell not even the Ravens are on that same page despite how the Ravens draft (thank Ozzie Newsome)

    What are you saying here?  IMO the Ravens have a better coach and maybe the better QB at this point. 

    We shall see what happens. We may not even have a season this year but old gip dawg has been underselling the steelers for as long as I've been on this board which goes back to I think 2004-2006 on a different name.

    No, I think I have only been "underselling them"  since Dick LeBeau left.  I never undersold that defense when he was there.  I had more faith in him than you did in fact. 

    They won two super bowls and went to a third in that frame.

    Not in the time frame I am talking about.  

    I still have a dollar bill in my wallet my buddy bet me as I don't like to gamble that the steelers wouldn't make the playoffs when they won xl because he was convinced they couldn't win with that line. I get it, hating the steelers is in the Cleveland DNA. 

    Actually, no, I don't think you get it at all.  We don't necessarily hate the Steelers.  We primarily hate how stupid their fans are....they are kind of the MAGA of the football world (except with more competency to root for) 

    Edit: I expect very little from Claypool this season. Diontae Johnson outside of juju is the one to watch. Washington will be good too. Diontae Johnson has the ability to be antonio brown 2.0. He had the best separation rate in the league last year. 

    You keep saying that...and it mean  absolutely nothing. Where is it that you come up with that so called statistical measurement?   I mean, what? Is he getting a divorce?

    Oh shut up. We do too hate the Steelers. Especially you. Spermsuckers? ...tell me again you don't hate the Steelers, g'head

    If they are kinda the MAGA of the football world, then that would make you kinda like a whining liberal dicklicker.  Keep your political analogies in check here bud.

    That's a poor comparison, Gip.

    The Steelers have been a good organization for years, and don't seem to be going anywhere anytime soon, unfortunately. 

    MAGA is a blip on the radar, a skidmark on the underwear of history. Destined to be wrapped in a bag and thrown into the garbage can. 

  • A few  questions/issues popped up while looking over media reports.     Give your opinions/answers:

    1. A report was given that  Lamar Jackson claimed that the only reason the Ravens lost to the Titans last year was because he overlooked them, and that they would have probably won had he not taken them lightly.   What say you about this claim?

    2. Another report claimed that now that the Steelers seem to be going to have Ben Roethlisberger back, apparently healthy, that the Steelers will be a juggernaut in the AFCN and the AFC overall.    What say you about this claim?

    3. Colin Cowherd said that Joe Burrow will struggle mightily this coming year....and beyond perhaps primarily because the Bengals are such a bad organization, and that he may never live up to his potential until and unless he gets the chance to leave the Bengals.   What say you about that claim?

    4. The Carolina Panthers put together survey with  a list of players that have played for that team since its inception in 1995, asking them to vote on that team's GOAT  (Greatest of All Time).   But, apparently, the Panthers left Cam Newton completely off the survey list.  What say you about that move by them?

    5.  There could be any number of Browns subjects to ask your opinion on....but let's do this:    Give your opinion on Something, Anything  that peaks your interest  to do with the Browns  and/or their future prospects for the forthcoming season,  or beyond.

    I don't know, the Titans are pretty good.

    I think Ben is about done.

    3. Colin Cowherd said that Joe Burrow will struggle mightily this coming year....and beyond perhaps primarily because the Bengals are such a bad organization, and that he may never live up to his potential until and unless he gets the chance to leave the Bengals.   What say you about that claim?

    Could be.  The Bengals could hold him back, but they have pretty good receivers.

    It's their survey

    Ok I hate the Steelers and their ignorant as hell fans. I suspect you are a closet Steelers fan.

    I don't understand why you have a problem with statues being pulled down.  All those statues are the ultimate participation trophy.

    They forget that it was only by virtue of the magnanimity of the Union that all those traitors were not hanged. I am of the opinion that those statues should not be destroyed but that they each should be surrounded by a dozen statues of former slaves who have broken their chains ⛓

    I wouldn't be against that -- in Germany they made all nazi-related statues "national thinking places" so that it's very public

    The somewhat brief but exciting career in Cleveland of Bernie Kosar  followed by Brian Sipe.  Non quarterback maybe Clay Mathews.

    You need options in life.   😉

    The BROWNS had some pretty good running backs but you get spoiled when you grew up watching Jim Brown until you were 14 years old and then he quit football to make movies.

    Ok I'm over that, sorta.  😒
