    No need to bring my mom to the forum, mate. She can't waste her time, she's busy cooking my lunch.

    I'm enjoying the start. I'm happy about 5-2, it's been a long long time.

    No, there hasn't been many "buts" here. I don't even like to acknowledge the Ratbirds, Paul Tagliabue's signature creation. Hell, I have season tickets and have never gone down to the stadium to see that opponent- I donate the tickets to the high school football program, so they can raffle them off & make money off them. Tagliabue bitch-slapped the city of Cleveland by putting those m effers in our division.

    I don't ever wear any yellow & black color combos ever. I just can't. At least the Rooneys voted against the move. Quietly hoping for a Squealers win vs the Rats Sunday.

    Like I posted in another thread, yes the Browns D is bad. It has a lot to do with injuries and depth. The only "but" here is basically only a handful of teams are playing good D this year. It doesn't give the Browns a pass, "but" it's definitely a comparison to the whole league. 

    Beat the Raiders somehow. Get to 6-2 and enjoy the BYE.

    Hmmm, well, the very author trying to make a fuss of the "But Pitt" club doesn't include the Browns as a "good team" himself. Then WTF is he whining about? It invalidates the entire point.

    So you think his point is that the Browns are good?

    You need to chat with Nero's Mom...

    ... but here's a hint... it wasn't.

    I'm enjoying 5-2 as well, but kind of like in a skydiving sort of way..... enjoying the freefall, but not truly happy until the chute opens and not ultimately satisfied until I'm back on the ground - alive of course.

    They wet the bed in Pittsburgh for sure.

    Game 1 with a new staff and no preseason= mulligan. Let's see how the rematches unfold.

    Getting to the playoffs and advancing in the playoffs are two different things. We can get to the playoffs without beating "good" teams like the Steelers and the Ravens. But once we make it, you know they're going to be there too, and we have to be able to get through them in order to advance. Whether or not we can do that remains to be seen.

    Plus I believe that learning to win in the playoffs is a real thing.

    Oh yes !  It can run through the entire team both ways winning and losing.

    For me it's a focus thing... regular season it's relatively easy to stay in the moment if a game is at all close because there is usually nothing to think about beyond this week's game.

    Playoffs? Different matter... much easier to prematurely look ahead... scoreboard watch, etc.
