As it is today i'll stay with best team AFCN is the browns believe me or not its the truth.

I'll agree that we have the best defense in the North and therefore, because defense rules in the North, we have the best team. Still have alot of offensive holes though so a deep playoff run is likely not on the table. Still not sure though our offense can stay on the field long enough against the Ravens so our defense can last 4 quarters. That will be interesting to see in the next game.

I see a browns win at the bills ...if it happens the game that makes a strong statement is how will we deal with the Lions if we roll them and are 4-2 after week 6 with 4 straight wins coming from Vikings Bengals Bills Lions I know some of u would still suck Baltimore and Cincys dick

ah, ic where you misunderstood me. I was saying "and in this division that means something". Was referring to the North and how defense dominates here.

The AFC north is our division. Do you mean the entire AFC? I think the Chiefs and Texans may have something to say about that. We are up there though.]]>https://brownsboard.com/post/357741https://brownsboard.com/post/357741Wed, 02 Oct 2013 18:35:19 GMT<![CDATA[Reply to Best team in the AFCN on Wed, 02 Oct 2013 18:31:01 GMT]]>I would say we easily have the best defense right now in the AFC North and in this division, that means something.

This is one of those games that playoff hopefuls WIN. Buffalo beat Baltimore, so we HAVE to go out and prove we can beat a rookie QB, at HOME, on primetime TV. Our D needs to make sure they step up and make Manuel look like a rookie, not like the next coming of John Elway. And, Hoyer needs to continue to manage the game and keep drives going while putting up enough points to win...

Just like the beginning of the year we said "It's all about Weeden"... Well, now "It's all about Hoyer"...

People keep claiming we're tied for 1st in the AFCN. We're not.

Calm down.

Technically, yes, we are tied at 2-2 with both Ravens and Bengals....but see my "If the Playoffs started today" thread. Ravens would win tie breakers...primarily because of their win over the Browns.

But there are 12 more weeks to sort it out. If the Browns can win Thursday they will have that leg up on everyone else.

BTW, I understand that the Steelers have their bye week this week.....so they are given a sort of parole from going to 0-5.

show that they are the best team in their div. Sweep the squeelers, and

beat buttimore and the bangles-again... and I'd go with it.

That will play out. With the D playing the way it has been and getting better, can keep us in it with any team. I see a smoothness and swagger in the team that has been sorely missed and I think the new owner has a lot to do with that. Best means playoffs....it can happen

I DO believe we have the best overall Coaching staff in the division & the talent gap is closing fast.

Of the four teams, we're probably not the best. We're honestly still behind Baltimore and probably the Bengals, once they get a decent QB. However, we have by far and away the biggest up arrow in the division. Steelers equally downward pointing, bengals slightly up, ravens about the same.

There are very few positions where the Ravens are better than us. You can go QB and RB and that's it. With the receiver and TE injuries QB isnt as much a factor with them now.

I don't think the Bengals are superior at any position although they do have 2 good tightends as opposed to 1 great one. Gordon can rival AJ Green. Defense is at worst a wash.
