silverbackattack Posted November 13, 2010 Report Share Posted November 13, 2010 ... in how many of those years have the Browns been a better team than the Steelers? 3? 4? That's pretty crazy to think about. How can it be that one-sided over such a long stretch? But kudos on your current run. I am actually kind of happy for Cleveland, and I'm a Steelers fan! Doesn't make much sense, but I guess I am happy to see long-suffering fans get a patch of sunlight on their sidewalk after all these years. But trust me: I won't feel happy for you for very long, if the Browns do indeed remain competitive. You fans will make sure of it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gips Posted November 13, 2010 Report Share Posted November 13, 2010 Yeah you stooly fans like it right now, but give it a couple years when we are far superior to the stoolers and then watch the moaning and groaning begin, whats being built now is not an art modell, carmin policy, butch davis or phil sewage piece of crap team, its for real and being built for the long haul, the stoolers arent use to competing for divisional championships against what this team is going to bring!

silverbackattack Posted November 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2010 Seriously, I don't care what happened in the NFL in eras that are not even considered "modern football," which is what you are doing if you go back before the 1970s. It wasn't even the same game - period - if you go back to the 60's and earlier. Who cares, seriously. And as far as the 80s and 90s go, yea, that why I said the Browns were the better team 3-4 years in that span; I was including the 80s and 90s. Other than a couple of years in the late 80s, Pgh was _still_ the better team in the vast majority of years since 1970's until the present. 1970s - Let's not even kid ourselves. That was arguable the greatest team in the history of modern NFL. All Pgh 1980s - Pgh's down decade, but even though, there were years in there where Pgh was still better. It was the Browns heyday, with Bernie, Mac, Minnifield, etc. But no hardware to show for it, not even an AFC title. 1990s - Cowher era. Better than Browns every single season in that span. 2000s - Not even close. Pgh added two more Super Bowl wins, and Browns were usually 3-13. Yes, maybe the Browns will get better. But Pgh won't be going any where. They are still the class of the entire NFL. Pgh is in the hunt almost every season. Do you know what that is like? What other team can say that?

Pumpkin Eater Posted November 14, 2010 Report Share Posted November 14, 2010 i don't care about football any year that the squeelers won or played in the superbowl. in fact those years do not matter because they don't count. So neither the Browns nor Squeelers have won a superbowl. See how easy it is to cherry-pick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your comment is cute and utterly stupid as well. Everyone knows modern football started this morning Nov 14, nothing matters before today. Now real professional football started when the NFL was formed in the 1920's and the game has not changed much except for QB's wearing skirts and no more shots below the knees and no more head slaps. And as soon as they make face masks illegal helmet to helmet hits will disappear as well. My suggestion to you is to stay dumb it makes life easier.

Umm they all have won Super Bowls since then. I don't get your point. But I never heard a Redksins fan brag about their 1942 league title. Same with a Rams fans and their 1945 and 1951 championship. My point was teams that have had success since the merger don't hold on to pre-merger success like gold. You listed a bunch of teams whose fans brag about Super Bowl wins but not success from the 50's. Basically who helped prove my point. I guess it is appropraite for me to thanj you for your help.

KaaaaPOWWWIWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW. You brought up everything I was thinking. These people seem to not understand the concept of logic. I have never heard any fans of the teams they mentioned EVER brag about titles won pre-1970s. Ever. Fans of Rams, Packers, Redskins et al. bring up successes post the 1960s. In the last 40 years, how many seasons can Brown fan point to and say the Browns were better than the Steelers? Like 3? Wow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But trust me: I won't feel happy for you for very long, if the Browns do indeed remain competitive. You fans will make sure of it! I thought that I would figure this out for you (by the way I am a Ravens fan): 1970 (1) Browns 7-7 Steelers 5-9 1971 (2) Browns 9-5 Steelers 6-8 1980 (3) Browns 11-5 Steelers 9-7 1985 (4) Browns 8-8 Steelers 7-9 1986 (5) Browns 12-4 Steelers 6-10 1987 (6) Browns 10-5 Steelers 8-7 1988 (7) Browns 10-6 Steelers 5-11 1989 (8) Browns 9-6-1 Steelers 9-7 1999 Ravens 8-8 (OK, I know that isn't the Browns) Steelers 6-10 2000 Ravens 12-4 (You know you trolls say the Ravens are the Browns, but intelligent people from Cleveland and Baltimore know the truth) Steelers 9-7 2003 Ravens 10-6 Steelers 6-10 2006 Ravens 13-3 Steelers 8-8 2007 (tie) Steelers 10-6 (they did go to the playoffs, but they were no better than the Browns who didn't) Browns 10-6 2009 Ravens 9-7 (but they went to the playoffs while the devil went down to Georgia) Steelers 9-7 That is 8.5 times the Browns had a better record than the Steelers and the Browns do already have 8 professional football Championships. Before you use that lame excuse about there not being as many teams back then, wouldn't that mean that each of the teams would have better talent on it making it more difficult to win championships? Before you use the lame defensive and offensive schemes are more difficult today than they were back then, as all of you say about the Steelers steroid era SB Championships, but all of the teams were using the same rules and the D could do things legally withing the rules that are outlawed now. Wouldn't that also make it more difficult to win Championships back then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't that also make it more difficult to win Championships back then? You had to use two different teams to try to prove the Steelers aren't almost always better than the Browns. And in 07 we swept the Browns and went to the playoffs. How are you saying we weren't clearly better than them? If you wouldn't have said you are a Ravens fan I would have thought you are a Browns fan. This is by the far stupidest thing that has ever been posted on this board.
