    Interesting stat.....They haven't even had the lead in a game yet......not once.....at this time last year, that 1-15 team had already lead 5 times....

    Ugh ... didn't realize that ... speechless.

    The NFL isn't THAT great. No one is THAT dominate. No Division is not THAT dominate. Our Division is not THAT dominate. Our Schedule is not THAT dominate.

    Agree....this division is not that good.  I mean, clearly....when we have 2 0-3 teams in it.  Plus....a 44-7 loss to the Jags?  And a loss to the Bears?  Someone will win it....maybe the winner of the game Sunday Rats vs. Squibs.......but that won't mean much in the long hall..  Do not see more than one team coming out of the AFCN.

  • The "Back In My Day" game is strong today.

    You know what the #1 reason the Browns have been miserable since '99? It isn't a lack of heart, determination, effort, or pride.

    It's a lack of talent.

    And wasting draft picks continuously on major, major busts....which, of course is one of the sources of your point as to why this team has had no talent.

    And to supplement...I DO think we have had some very poor coaching of the talent we had.  Bad talent+ bad coaching +  suckage.

    In a nutshell, this is my feelings as well.

    Penalties+underwhelming run game+dropped passes=3 and long and a stagnant offense. I don't know the numbers, but I'd be willing to bet that the Browns average yards to gain on 3rd down is worst in the league. Add in the fact that the Browns haven't held a lead all season.... teams that are always playing from behind and can't stay on schedule offensively rarely run the ball. 

    At at this point we can only hope that the youngest team in the league can grow up a bit as the season wears on. 

    Edit: https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/third-down-conversion-pct

    Cleveland is 31st in 3rd down conversion % at 27% a figure that is almost 10 percentage points lower than last years team. this team will struggle until they find a way to limit the self-inflicted wounds. 

    And yet, to me, still....the reason the Browns lost that game was because of their poor defensive coverage of T.Y. Hilton.
