    I don't profess to know what the future will hold for the Browns and this front office- but I reserve the right to be skeptical until I see some progress. Savage- Holmgren- Lombardi- Farmer, need I say ,more? Regarding Shep- yeah- he never saw a quarterback he didn't like. I occasionally head over to the 'Tard, just to see what's going on. There's several posters there who know their stuff.

    Pretty much the same for me hoorta. I would describe myself as 'cautiously optimistic' and hope to see improvement week after week, even if the final score has us with a smaller number than the opponent.

    I, like several others, am just tired of the constant doom and gloom from many on this forum. It's like sitting next to Randy Quaid's character in Major League. In the end, they may all be right and the Browns will continue to suck, but I get enough shit from my friends on a daily basis, and I certainly don't want to come here and see the same stuff from other Browns fans.

    If I don't see improvement this year I'll grow more impatient and even I'll start to grumble, but as I sit here today, I'm all in on the 2016 Browns............. Why wouldn't I be? I can't control a single thing they do, and proclaiming that I know more than they do is pointless, as not only do I not, but even if I did, it doesn't change a thing.

    Put me in this camp as well.

    The season hasn't even started yet.

    True- I just wish I had seen a few more encouraging signs in the preseason. Young teams with new coaching staffs in general tend to not win a lot of games.

    There's a reason for this. The younger players buy into a system easier than players that have seen different coaching staffs. No suprise to cut out the disgruntled and you can't blame them really. But Hue has to keep everyone on the same page of music so we'll see.

    I hope we beat them too! The Eagles have a pretty decent defense though. I imagine their offense will rely on the run but the Browns will stuff it.

    Browns 21

    Eagles 10

    DAMN THE TORPEDOES! FULL SPEED AHEAD!

    Pragmatically thinking... It would be best for the Browns if Wentz lights up Hortons soft piece of shut 4-3 defense. That might be the first catalyst for Haslam to get pissed off enough to send the Billy Bean dream team back to coffee fetching in the MLB. We can hope, at least.

    Just as we can hope you disappear.

    Just as we can hope the Browns win the Super Bowl.

    Well let's see what our friends in Las Vegas think about all of this latest news and remember they really don't care who wins only that there's an even amount bet on both sides. ......and they don't like to lose big sums of money in the process. (vegasinsider.com)

    09/11 1:00 PM

    457 Cleveland

    458 Philadelphia open -7' 45 now -4 41' (and the ' = 1/2 point)

    PHI-QB-Carson Wentz-Probable | TV: CBS, DTV: 708

    So the line seems to have to settled at -4 and the BROWNS as the road team do not appear to be that far of a long shot.

    So there you go. ....... and GO BROWNS!

    GO BUCKEYES, BROWNS, INDIANS, CAVS, YSU, NAVY and yes I like ND!

    I think the Browns have a chance, as long as the run D doesn't shit the bed. I'm trying not to get too excited but it's hard, it's finally football season again! I think the offense will look good but the poor defense will make this a close game, Eagles are not the team they used to be so let's see who can not suck the least.

    "Friends" of course being the betting public. Apparently Bradford was worth only 3 points.

    It is hard to separate the two... despite all the practice we have.

    Half a point to the vikings apparently. So, do we take the sum or the mean?

    Sum... and then truncate...

    I too would have liked to see more on the part of the defense during the preseason. I am very concerned with how poorly they played at times.

    Regardless - here's hoping for a season with progress and a few fun moments. GO BROWNS!!
