    You guys need to stop deciding how good or bad the Browns are until you've seen something. Stop with the suicidal talk.

    This team simply isn't very good and no matter how bad you wanted them to be good it isn't going to happen until the new "system" has some time.

    You need to accept that you may win 5-6 games this year but the Browns are building under a system which is something you haven't had here in 20 years.

    Yah let this system flounder around for 2 years and then blow it up and start again

  • A few points you faithful should consider before running the car in a locked garage.

    For the record, I predicted the Browns by 4 on our board.

    It's early enough for you guys to find yourselves and win some games. There is enough talent up there to make a showing.

    Sadly, you bought in to the "veteran QB is the second coming" pile. Delhome's not that good without a formidable running attack. I suspect the intelligent Dawggies knew this. He's not going to beat anyone with his arm alone. Put a little pressure on him and he makes a lot of mistakes. We went down that same road with ol' happy feet Garcia and it's a bad one. Witness Chuckies MNF gig as a testament to how well dumpster diving for a starting NFL QB works.

    Dont underestimate your opponent. Nearly all of Dawgland dissed the Bucs. Buncha 3-13 chumps right? Tampa purged most all the old guys and kept only the most athaletic guys. We are a much more physical and quick than most people think. Young and stupid? Yup. You saw Freeman just like we did. Our D line struggled in the first half too.

    Lastly, the weather kicked your ass too. You guys looked about as ready for the fourth quarter as the Bucs do coming out of a tunnel when it's 10 below.

    All things considered, these teams are far more similar than dissimilar. Overhauled front office, unproven coaches and a few draft picks away from a decent squad.

    6-8 wins max for us both this year.

    Good Luck going forward.

    i agree with these two points you made. tampa is young and hungry as by the most part so are we, except that pile you speak of delhomme. i don't mean to kill jake delhomme here, i like his grittiness and leadership skills and i think his team mates (if shown something) will rally behind him like they did the coaching staff the end of last year. but this debut lacks neither and is not a good showing to the team/FO or the fans. when every game of a 16 season means so much the coaches need to adjust and either replace ineffective/mistake ridden players (even if they're not sure what will happen) or change your game plan on the fly. AND like most on this thread have stated: why take your foot off the gas? where is the killer instinct?
