bonedawg Posted September 16, 2013 Report Share Posted September 16, 2013 If it weren't for the hapless disaster happening down in Jacksonville this year, the Browns would be straight up at the bottom of the barrel in the NFL. We might be able to beat the Jets, but if they score a touchdown, fucking forget about it. Once again, we're playing for field goals except now we don't even have Phil Automatic Dawson. We've got Billy butt-fucking Cundiff. We can change owners, coaches and players, but it's like groundhog day on offense every season. Getting a first down is like winning the goddamn super bowl for us. Our WRs can't catch, our OL can't block, and our QB is out there with this dumbfounded look on his face like he is staring at a calculus textbook upside down. Don't even talk about a QB controversy, Campbell sealed that competition with his little pussy underhanded throw today. We're stuck with Weeden until he retires 4 years from now. Oh, I forgot, when Gordon comes back next week we're going to turn into an offensive juggernaut right? Trent Richardson is looking absolutely average. Might not want to take the measurements for his HOF jacket just yet. I don't want to hear shit about the OL not opening up holes for him. Good running backs find holes, and when there aren't any, and they can make something out of nothing. I'm not saying that he should break of 20 yard runs every play, but shit, he runs like he has concrete in his cleats. When Ongyabunga gets a carry, it's like my DVR is on fast forward. The real kick in the ass about this year is that our defense is legit good. I'm used to the defense keeping us in games while our offense sputters like a 1987 Yugo, but this D is different. Our front seven are top 3 in the league. We made Ray Rice look like a punk bitch today. Sure, Buster Skrine is running around in the secondary with his head stuck in his ass, but holding the defending super bowl champs to 14 points is more than enough to be able to win that game. Oh that's right, our offense can only score two fucking field goals in 60 minutes of football. All of this comes when the Steelers and Ravens are in the decline. Seriously, we are chasing the fucking Bengals this year and we can't score a touchdown to save our lives. Our defense is going to have to hold teams to 3 points or under to give us a punchers chance to win a game. Horton is gone next year to a head coaching gig (probably Jacksonville), so we have 14 more games to work whatever magic we have before pressing the reset button. All in all, same fucking Browns. See you next Sunday. Edit: I'm drunk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoorta Posted September 16, 2013 Report Share Posted September 16, 2013 I feel your pain. Had to wait until 2AM to post back, much wine will do that to you. Problem is, the Browns are going to be just good enough- again- to lose out on the #1 overall pick. Speaking of the Jags- it's a race to the bottom for yet another high pick. Lotsa luck there with Lombardi calling the shots. Only consolation- we'll be battling the injury decimated Steelers for the AFC North basement. Tune into ESPN tonight to watch the Queen City Kitties lay a royal ass whuppin' on the Squealers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USFBrown Posted September 16, 2013 Report Share Posted September 16, 2013 If we can get a WR or two who can catch and make an effort to fight for the ball, I believe we can compete. Sure our rb and o line suck. But we have no WR that defenses respect so it makes our problems even worse. Weeden at least improved by moving around in the pocket. You don't get many opportunities in the NFL, the dropped passes are killing any type of momentum and drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Ghollie Posted September 16, 2013 Report Share Posted September 16, 2013 Billy Cundiff hasnt missed a field goal or an extra point so until he does let's be happy we at least have a kicker that has done his job so far.

You don't get many opportunities in the NFL, the dropped passes are killing any type of momentum and drive. Yeah WTF is wrong with our WRs in not being able to get separation, and then when they do they can't hang on to the ball? I watched Denver vs NY Giants yesterday, and when a guy dropped the ball Manning had a look of disgust and you know for a fact he is in that WRs ass in the huddle! Weeden shows no backbone, and no command out there! Even Brian Brennan commented on the radio how if he or a WR would drop a ball Bernie would tell the WR to go take a seat, or threaten not to throw to him anymore! We need a QB with more leadership, command, and who demands accountability from the players around that! I see none of that with Weeden! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonedawg Posted September 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2013 Now that I think about it, Jacksonville has a supposedly "elite" RB, underachieving QB, and a bunch of no-name WRs. Sounds strangely familiar... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gftChris Posted September 16, 2013 Report Share Posted September 16, 2013 Lol Jacksonville fans are having a rally today to try and convince the team to sign Tebow. Yeah, that'll go well! I actually feel confident saying that Brandon Weeden is a *better* QB than Tebow. Not many fall in that category, though. Maybe Sanchez? FWIW, the jags chairman's yet another that's bought an EPL team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though I'm wondering if it's some bad Karma from something that happened in this city's past. There are a lot of good things going on in this city right now, but we've had a fair share of shady leaders in this town that have done some bad things. Then of course regarding the Browns there was Modell purchasing the team and firing Paul Brown shortly after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoorta Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 Honestly, it could have happened in any other rust belt city. And the Cuyahoga River has been cleaned up substantially since that incident. Yes, you can thank the EPA for that- but also a lot of the heavy industry that was causing the pollution is no more. I used to work down in the Flats in that time period- and I saw small rivulets of creosote oil (the stuff that's used to treat telephone poles) running towards the river. One of the steel mills coke plants (coal purification) would regularly send up a cloud of acid rain that could take the paint finish off your car- or their BOF (basic oxygen furnace) would occasionally send a mushroom cloud of rust a couple hundred feet in the air when they fired it up. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
