Well its official...

My feeling is that, early on, the Browns may in fact look like the worst team ever.....but at about the quarter pole, they are going to start congealing....and while they won't win a lot of games, toward the end of the year they will be a tough out for anyone.
Yes.
An upcoming offseason full of hope and a plethora of draft picks for guys who can actually draft.
Merry Christmas, Browns fans.

Potentially very high draft picks too. We know where the Browns are this year and the Eagles could easily be a below average to bad team. The Titans are on this rise but they could also be a top 10 type of draft team this year too. That means we'd have four picks within the top 40 or so including almost certainly a top 5 and top 10 pick.
It's almost like they have a concrete plan and we should have seen it coming! Enjoy the ride people, that's all you can do. At least being in South Florida this year I can get rowdy with a few other Browns fans at bottomless brunch!

For this season, sure it would be great to go 16-0 but it's very unlikely. As long as there is an upward trend instead of a downward trend by the end of the season I'll be somewhat pleased, I don't want to see the Browns give up halfway through the season and tank the last 8 games to get higher draft picks.
The preseason games: offense looked OK sometimes, Kessler does not look like he's ready for the speed of NFL games yet. The RG3 to Pryor connection looks great, hopefully they can keep it up during regular season. Stupid drive-killing penalties galore. Mistakes like that will hopefully clear up as the season progresses, this is a super-young team with a lot to learn.
I think the offense will be able to keep us in games, but the bigger problem (as many have been saying for a while now) is the defense. With Hue clearing out the overpaid underperformers, the defense has nowhere to go but up. Nassib, Orchard, Meder, Schobert all had some flashes here and there, looking forward to seeing what they can do. Yesterday's game Tuggle had some great plays, albeit against the Bears' scrubs. Let's see how it plays out. Maybe the Browns were just saving the good stuff for regular season

That's the hope.

That is true there's nowhere to go but up for sure. hopefully we do show some signs of life towards the end of the year. There are sparks on this team but no fire. I have no faith in rg3 and look for him to get either benched or hurt in the first 8 weeks. Mccown is crazy inconsistent and he's injury prone and kessler looked HORRIBLE out there after showing some promising signs in the first 3 games. cody may even be cut and put on the practice squad. That being said we have more playmakers on offense than we have had in the past 3 years. Defense is SUPER hard to judge because of the shitty 3-4 zone biltz mess that horton runs. our DL is promising as are our linebackers but our DB's are playing so soft you cant evaluate fairly them same with our LB when they go into coverage. I guess it's just so frustrating because the browns are WAY better than they played in the preseason. best case scenario we move on from horton at the end of the year and install a 4-3 coordinator and hire an actual offensive coordinator. I'm really nervous about us taking deshaun watson in the draft i keep hearing mixed reports on him. I think it would be really cool if we took a qb that is qb size for once in the last 4 years lol.

Anybody that calls for or even just predicts another browns coach firing after this season should be permaban. Havent we had enough of tjat fgtry to last a lifetime?

I'm not about to get on the fire Hue train. The guy hasn't even coached a regular season game for the Browns. Plus, he doesn't have the horses yet.

I disagree I think we start out strong cause as I said hue will have a plan in place for rg3 but after a few games other teams will be on to us and make ajustments
as far as the author of this thread you are mentally challenged if you think hue will be gone after a year

I'm already salivating at the idea of us getting a top 3 pick (via Eagles) and drafting Myles Garrett or Leonard Fournette. Two once-in-a-generation players in one draft. Then we'll likely have a top 10 pick and pick up some secondary help with a player like Jalen Tabor or Jabrill Peppers.
Truthfully, while it may not show on paper, I'm liking the team's direction. It took us no longer than a hiccup to trade Gilbert for a sixth rounder, and a 34 year old punter for a fifth. With all of our salary cap space clearing, and great mid round picks like Nassib, Higgins, and Ogbah, I'm optimistic with the process. I won't read too much into our W/L column because we have a veeeery tough schedule.
Go Browns!

I have to agree with you on Horton, his D was terrible the first time around. Too many blitzes and large chunks of yardage. Hopefully Ogbah and Nassib are the answer to not getting pressure.
