A nick-name for a powerful defense

The Browns Board

  • The rule changes to favor offenses and the era of the super QBs with scrambling abilities make consistent dominant defenses almost extinct.

    the hope is to make a few stops, force a timely turnover and force a couple FGs and win 35-27.

    But I’ll play Something dog pound let’s stay nostalgic and please no stupid “Dawg Check” chants.

    I don't even think that the 2000 Ravens,  one of the best defenses of all time, had a nickname.

    They did....Ratbirds, Scum of the Earth, A$$holes, etc....

    Well, that is what we, aptly, called them,   but I don't think any of those were marketed to the general football public.

    The Brown Bomber(s) is already spoken for by Joe Louis.

    The Browns were named after Paul Brown.

    Old and worn out.   and really should have only applied to the Dixon/Minnifield group.  You don't see the Vikings still calling their defense the Purple People Eaters, or the Rams  the Fearsome Foursome.

    Not according to Paul Brown they weren't,   at least not initially. 

  • The Browns are coming up in the rankings as a dominate team. Major additions to our defense is a big deference. If our defense can become as dominate as the classic Steelers Steel Curtin, what would be a good name for our dominating defense? Maybe something like - The Browns Bolder Blockade ?

    A rock and roll related theme ?  Cleveland "D" rocks ?  Something else simple but still but rockin' good.

    We could take them on one of those ole Bear Bryant style illegal football retreats like he did with the Junction Boys to Junction, Texas in the 50's. Except in this case

    we take them to a ranch in Texas.

    So why did Texas A&M let Bear Bryant get away to Alabama?

    The Great Filter is the filter that keeps life from progressing.  It's the reason that we do not see life anywhere else in the universe.  In theory, the filter is still ahead of us.  

    Anyway, The Great Filter is impenetrable...so you are correct, it's a great name for a defense.  🙂

    Bear Bryant was a former Bama player and as he said, "Mama called, and when mama calls you just have to come running."

    Ironically the cat got out of the bag with two games left in an undefeated season following a once tied season and they were #1 at the time. A&M lost the next two games and their bowl game by a total of 6 points. You just could not mend all those broken hearts of the Junction Boys that had brought him there. Also ironically one of those boys coached Bama to a National Championship after Bear died. Gene Stallings.
