Steiny played bad, but don't evne let Joe Thomas off the hook because he was a 1st round pick & pro bowler. He got split by the DE Pryce TWICE with Steiny when they doubled him on a 3 man rush. This happened on two consecutive series. No OLinemen is going to contain their man 100% of the game, no one has and no one ever will. Its the QB's job to make a play when the OLine starts to come apart during a play. Not even Manning & Brady have perfect OLine's but when the pressure is coming they MAKE A PLAY

@clevelandfanforlife said:i think that winning three off of ne, ind, pit, bal, dal, phi, nyg and sdx2 is a reach. i am not trying to be a dick and appreciate you coming onto another team's board and giving insight (and actually NOT trying to be a dick) but i think that you guys have no shot at that. you barely beat the bengals, beat the crap out of us (not impressive at all) and beat the lowly raiders. i'm sorry man but i don't see 5 more wins. however i did predict the browns to win 6-8 this year so i've clearly been wrong before. You could still be right, but at this point I would bet a beer on it which is more than I would have risked week 1. I think we split with SD (who look suspect) so there is one, NE an Dal both look like they may be regressing, could be one there, Pit and Philly have injury issues at key positions, there's a possible, we COULD pull of a two team division sweep of KC and Oak, theres another. Really I am just letting optimism run wild here, I tend to think you are right, and we are still a 5-8 win team but I wouldn't put the book it on the end just yet. Edited addition: I know the quality of opponents thus far is suspect, but we are top 5 in EVERY defensive category statistically. Yes, that will change Vs teams like Indianapolis, Baltimore, etc. but that is a LONG way from the 25th or below in every gategory from last year. A competent D makes many games possible.

There is a rumor Crennel met with the owners of the Bungles to discuss a possible job oppurtunity with them. Crennel is simply in the process of earning his last credentials to fit the qualifications of being a Bungal. But really, this guy is going to get caught red handed with his hand in the bucket of chicken any day now. Police are staking out all the buffets.

As I said in previous threads..hailing this guy as the replacement for Jamal.. Preseason means dick!.. There are ton's of guys who look good in preseason.. He looked like a rookie. Jamal looked like what he is.. a pro. Can't use the car crash as an excuse..If he's healthy enough to be on the field.. Produce. He will improve..it's his first game. I am just glad Jamal is not washed up like all the naysayers have been howling about.

Maybe one day we will get some real good players. Not bench players from Seattle that LeBron turns into servicable (Delonte West.) Not small but talented shooters that only flourish in low pressure situations like the regular season and in Milwaukee (Mo Williams.) Not small shooters who can do absolutely nothing else effective on the floor and are a dime-a-dozen at the local YMCA (Daniel Gibson.) Not retreads who are years removed from their prime (Wally Szczerbiak and Ben Wallace.) Not centers who are so scared of contact and putrid at defense that the other team runs their whole gameplan around attacking (Zydrunas Ilgauskus.) Luckily the Cavs have a Mike Brown's great defense and LeBron James so they could win 66 regular season games.

Why is "Big" Ben Wallace letting Howard push him around when he is on him? Put that farkin beetch on the floor. You will draw the foul, but you have to slow the guy down inside. Where is the "Detroit Bad Boy" I thought we traded for?
