Week 5: Colts (3-1) @ Browns (3-1) Thread... The Battle of the Once-Beatens

A "turkey" for Myles would be 3 sacks.
Phillips interests me as well. He's the LB from LSU I liked most, so let's see. He's a "blue collar" player.

It seems like they have a legit staff.

And practice reports... https://www.rotowire.com/football/practice-report.php?team=CLE
Light Practice is better than no (Did Not) Practice.
Not looking good for Ogun, but Richardson made progress. Hunt concerns me.

I find this game as watching our "big brother team"... Both teams have drafted well, while using their leading cap numbers wisely on FA's.. Jim Irsay fires GM Ryan Grigson after a 4-12 season and took the path of hiring Chris Ballard in late 2016.. After Ballard get's punk'd by J.McDaniels.. He hires Frank Reich Feb.2018..
Turn the page.. ( and I'm not trying to kick a dead ?)
John Dorsey gets hired Dec 7th 2017.. Told by Haslam, to observe a 0-16 crazy train.. In fact..Dorsey could* have hired Frank Reich? And at least the coaching staff could have been settled? Though were now 2 years behind on good coaching? Things may have worked out better with the Kev Stefanski hiring?.. just a real s t r e c h of the facts that are there..
a.) Ballard/Reich took over a team coming off a 4-12 2017 season.. Colts finished 10-6 after hiring Reich in 2018.(were on that pace) Draft Q.Nelson & D.Leonard in 2018.Both become AP 1st team All Pro's..
b) Dorsey was brought in with a few games left in 2017.. Takes the fast track with good Drafting in 2018 & 2019.. Adds Landry/OBJ/Hunt/S.Richardson/Vernon... Sure, JD dies with his own coaching blood on his hands in 2019.. But what 'if' the 2018 coaching choices were left up to JD in 2o18 ?... Oh! never/mind that!
And here we are... Walking into a game of two re-built teams a year apart in Talent* for Sunday.... The Difference has always been the COACHING of good Talent!! Now & Only Now, I have the feeling we have the right coaching staff that only lacks the team bonding & experience of Frank Reich by 2 years & No off-season Camps to prepare..
It's Cody Parkey's perfect season... We win this Game on the leg of a Parkey FG... (the curse of poking the bears) Go Browns !!
Winnie only left the 'r' out in Irsay..book it!!

I guess if this thread is going to go to the birds, may as well go all the way.
As many of you may know my son is at Cornell. Cornell also happens to be the leading (world? USA) ornithilogical university. My son has taken on birding (don't call it birdwatching) as a hobby and has taken a course or two in it (it is wholly outside his field of study, which is Biochemistry) and I have gotten into it...but just a little bit. He actually did see a Snowy owl up near Ithaca. It is fairly rare to see them in the US. They mostly hang in Canada. Pileated woodpeckers are all around. 5 Keel Billed Toucan? I am pretty sure you would need to go to Central America or South America for those.
I have seen Condors at the Grand Canyon. Though I cannot say I have seen "wild peacocks". HOwever, for species counting, if a peacock is roaming the grounds free, and is not pent up, you can count the observation of them for your personal species count.

Are the Browns now doing a Bill Belichick thing where a hang nail ..or even phantom injuries....gets you put on the injured list?

Indy is still avery slight road favorite at -1 or -1.5 which might be one of the more interesting games this week.
SO how about a peek at the AFCN games next week, all at 1 pm right now. From our friends at vegasinsider.com https://www.vegasinsider.com/nfl/odds/las-vegas/

Lately I have specialized in getting the bird from the trumpettes on the polyboard. Does being able to induce birds to show up in flocks count for anything??????

I'm calling the pick 6 this week. I feel it. Phil will destroy us over the middle but we'll get him on a weakly thrown out pattern.

There’s a fantastic movie about birding called Big Year. It stars Steve Martin, Jack Black and Owen Wilson and follows their quest to see as many species of birds in the US. Based on real events l believe. Real feel good flick that sorta gave me a passing interest in birding as well. Highly recommended if you haven’t seen it.

The Yahoo Pick'em line opened at Browns (+1.0) Monday... jumped to 2.5 Tuesday... and then dropped to 1.5 today.
Not unusual for a line to move, but then to reverse? Unusual...

Yea, reversing course is unusual - that's showcasing the $ moving back and forth. Other than Balt., Indy is the best team they have faced.

Yes, I have seen it a couple of times. Like it very much. It is funny, but not hilarious. It is dramatic some, but not melodramatic. I guess you can call it sweet, cute, but not syrupy or anything.
It is based on a true story of 3 guys that were competing for that "Big Year". One of the real guys that it is based on I believe is from Canton.

Jack Black portrayed the Canton guy:
