    So absolutely true.

    I suspect that this board will be ugly for a while....but then it will turn to what we damned well have always done for like the last  20 years:    Talk Draft.   And Free Agency.

    And that talk will be about:    Who will we be getting back heathy that will be ready for next year when we will really make a move?     Who and at what positions will we draft?   What holes must we fill?  What moves should we make in free agency.  How will the salary cap affect anything we do?   etc.  etc. etc. 

    Face it.....we are going to do that anyway short of winning it all.

    Fair to say? 

    No, it is not fair to say. 

    If you think if the Browns - who were 9-3 and 10-4 and cruising towards their first playoff game in almost 20 years - lose Sunday against Mason Fucking Rudolph that the board will act the same as if the Browns had made the playoffs and lost a well-played game against, say, Buffalo you have officially lost your mind.

    This is going to shock everyone...but I will lose my effing mind if we lose our last two games and miss the playoffs. Not just any two games, but lose to the Jets and the freaking Steelers, and all we had to do was win ONE. Oh, and losing against Mason Rudolph would just be the fucking Brownsiest shit I've ever heard of to miss out on the playoffs. We literally got to play a team with 1 win btw. 

    If we win, it's going to be a VERY close game. I'd shit a golden rabbit if we won by more than 5 points. I just see Mason hitting some big shots down the field, our safeties grabbing for penalties, and our linebackers generally acting like ass clowns of the highest order. 

    What I'm less clear about is our offense. I'm not sure at ALL how they're going to play. Baker sounded like a broken man to me after last game. If he shrugs it off and plays like we know he can, we might just win this game. Oh yeah, and we need Teller and Wills. We get them back, PLUS Harrison on defense...we might just have something.

    But you didn't respond to the matter at hand.    Yes, we will all go apeshit over that situation.

    But...will you just crawl in a hole for the next several months?   Or will you be back on here talking draft/FA etc.   and mulling over what we need to do in the future.

    I'll probably go in a hole. For a while anyway. I'll snap out of it like I always do, but I'd be a disaster (sports wise) for a while and wouldn't be back discussing the draft or anything like that. 

  • The Steelers will keep Ben Roethlisberger on the sidelines for the last game against the Browns. Rudolph will be getting the start and hopefully it wont be like the last time Rudolph played against the Browns. Browns must win this game to keep a playoff spot vacant for them.

  • Sounds like a merger is in store for this thread.

    The Pittsburgh Steelers got back to work on Wednesday in preparation for their Sunday showdown with the Cleveland Browns and several key Steelers were unable to practice.

    QB Ben Roethlisberger (Non-injury related) DNP

    LB Marcus Allen (Stinger) FP

    K Chris Boswell (Groin) FP

    S Terrell Edmunds (Shoulder) DNP

    C Maurkice Pouncey (Non-injury related) DNP

    No excuses for the BROWNS.     And the lines went up from CLE -6 to -10  from M-T-W.

    GO BROWNS, time to finish 11-5.......baby !

    A lot of those Steeler non injury related DNPs are most likely the same as what we saw with Joe Thomas at the end of his career. You give those guys an extra day of rest to heal up.

    Yup... Stef's been doing the same thing with Bito and Conklin this season.

    Still it could be a clue to some of the folks he is going to sit Sunday. He simply can't risk injury to Watt and Heyward... although Heyward was "FP" today.
