    That's borderline offensive that the Jets are favorites.

    Picks are secret until game time mostly cuz if it got close at the end of the season it prevents copying other picks. Like you know if I was first place in a close race I could just copy 2nd place picks to prevent them from winning.

    But it has a unique badge for getting it exactly right, and one for 1st, 2nd, 3rd place at the end of the season. Seemed like a good gamification idea to boost engagement a little

    Kinda like how it’s an advantage to pick last in the Price is Right.

    I’ll take $1 Bob.

    A beatable conference team. You have to take advantage of that. We already have a conference loss.

    If the Browns are for real, this is a game they need to win. Take care of business before heading into Ravens game. Get better, don't play down to the competition. Play like you did Thursday night!

    This one is likely to be ugly for both offenses.

    Brownies can't generate explosives & we struggle in the running game. Jets LOVE playing Cover 2

    Jets are injured on offense and struggling to do the same. Browns love playing some 2hi shells.

    This is the type of game that somebody has to dig deep and either you throw volume at the running game, or generate a few magic shots downfield. Because the screen game from last week isn't going to be as effective this week.

    Either you get the vertical game going, or it's going to be a day to play the under. This is where the offenses stall out in the red-zone, so whoever comes away with a TD or 2 end up winning the day.

    The Browns are historically famous for playing down to the level of their opponent... I still like the Browns in this game because I like Monkens energy and influence over the Browns more than I like Aaron Glenns impact or lack thereof on his team.. However.. I still expect a tough defensive effort from the Jets... Thats Glenns expertise and what he preaches... The Browns were aggressive on both sides of the ball last week and I hope that continues.. They will have to have more patience this week.. Especially on offense as you pointed out.. Boston and Bond are going to have to show up big I think while Concepcion can do the dirty work with the great blocking he's done... I love this group of kids we have...

    I expect the Browns to win but will be probably closer than people expect. Mason Graham's absence may lead to more blitz calls and Geno Smith is very good against the blitz. Our offense is still inconsistent esp the running game and will need to score over 20 points to secure victory.

    Spoken like someone that began following the Browns way back when I did Nicks. Any time the Browns are favored (or there's a very beatable opponent), they've been prone to looking like they didn't prepare for their exam/game on Sunday. As recently as last year, The Browns lost to the Jets in Jersey 27-20 giving up TWO STs returns for TDs before the NYJs finished 3-14. In the same season, the visiting Titans on their way to a 3-14 record ran the ball right down the Browns esophagus to a 31-29 victory. Classic examples of "If you fail to prepare; then prepare to fail."

    As we delve into the season, the volume of avoidable flags need to subside. There's nothing worse than watching the Browns beat themselves for the opponent. Repeatedly not knowing the snap count or where to line up on offense in PRO football are examples of guys not focused enough to WIN. Sometimes you gotta bench their ass with tough love before it gets contagious.

    Random thought: When the Browns drafted Ohio State Center Luke Wypler in the 6th round in 2023 - I thought this was going to be a steal. However, in the early going he stuggled with injuries and the Browns signed a solid veteran - Ethan Pocic to man down the spot. When healthy, we had no reason to complain about Pocic. When he wasn't, Wypler got some intermittent opportunities that received mixed reviews from our fans due to some inconsistencies mentioned. I thought he was decent with room to improve like any inexperienced starter. Right now? I think he's just as good as the more experienced starter - Elgton Jenkins (who can also play OG) but the upside favors The young "Wypler Snapper" fwiw...

    This is the first game it's open, part of the new board.

    Didn't open it for last Thursday night because of the short notice

    Mike Hall Jr is constantly injured. I just saw he's out tomorrow. DOM GUMMIT! Along the same line, a big reason the Bears didn't re-signTeven Jenkins was because of his frequency of injuries.
