D Bone Posted October 24, 2017 Report Posted October 24, 2017 I hung in there until about picture #4, then I got the hell out of there. Some of our fellow fans are still in there however..... my prayers go out to their families.

wargograw Posted October 25, 2017 Report Posted October 25, 2017 Let’s get the one about most of our fans where things are looking up—hot wife, promotion at work, healthy kid, etc.—and the guy wants to ditch the family and move to Vegas because they’re not millionaires yet.

That's a hilariously false analogy. The Browns today would be a guy with a wife who can't leave the house because she weighs 500lbs, a third shift job at the local convenience store, and a kid who has graduated from meth to heroin.
hx214 Posted October 25, 2017 Report Posted October 25, 2017 Hard to figure out how Hue is suppose to act. Listen to Dustin Fox yell about how he is sick of listening to Hue say the same things every week after a game. What is he suppose to say? We suck? I hate being here. I'm gonna get fired. Sashi screwed me. I wanted Watson. Jimmy is a clown. Reminds me of the guys at work that bitch about their shitty life choices. That'll make it better. Bitch and moan about it, bring everybody else down. Truth is, this is all Jimmy's work. Dude hires Chud, fires him after one season. Hires Mike. Makes them draft a drunk. Fires Banner after two seasons, Hires Farmer. Fires Pet after his QB goes to rehab... this team hasn't been stripped to the studs it was bulldozed and people are surprised at the talent void? (Also listening to Dustin Fox bitch about how he has to go to work every Sunday and watch them lose and how awful it is. Fu ck you dude. Life is so hard for you. Work sports talk radio all day taking calls and giving your damn opinion that never has to be correct, hanging out with Bernie And watching film, standing on the sidelines watching NFL football games. Feel real bad for ya. Come work with me and my crew for a week at a real job, see how the rest of us live on a daily basis)

LogicIsForSquares Posted October 25, 2017 Report Posted October 25, 2017 I personally like that there is no evidence of improvement on offense. But it is all in the process of trying to lose as many games as possible with the worst, possibly historically bad, red zone offense.

Our fans-our fans Things are looking up-the team is getting better hot wife, promotion at work, healthy kid, etc.-evidence of things getting better the guy-our fans ditch the family and move to Vegas-get rid of the regime millionaires-winning a bunch of games Yours is pretty poor, on the other hand.

But I think the OL's made strides such that once we have better WR and QB play, things should fire up pretty quickly. And that's what the next draft is for, if the whiners such as yourself can wait that long.

So why should anyone feel confident that the current front office can pick the right talent? They basically used the shotgun method and still didn't find an average WR by accident. This has been my issue this year and it will likely be a problem next year unless Sashi and Co. bring someone in who can evaluate talent. They may do a great job at bringing in lots of swings at the ball but they need to actually get some regular hits.

jiggins7919 Posted October 26, 2017 Report Posted October 26, 2017 Did anyone talk about Hue's decision to decline that penalty on 3rd down, when it made it 4th and 1 for the Titans in our territory? If you take the penalty, you give the offense a chance to pick up the first, but you also move them back 15 yards. That would've made the FG MUCH longer, right? And who knows, if you get a sack on 3rd down, they might be out of FG range all together. The decision didn't ultimately hurt us too badly, as we still held them to 3 points, but I didn't get the decision, and I don't understand the logic there.

Just another Hue brain fart that contributes to the 1-22.
domcucch1994 Posted October 26, 2017 Report Posted October 26, 2017 Hue Jackson should have pleaded for Mr. Moneyball to take Carson Wentz.. End of discussion..

Think man. In one draft. 4 picks flushed. DeValve and Kindred aren’t setting the world on fire either. The jury is still out on the 2017 draft. I like the approach of putting together picks but they need to get someone in the FO who can ID the talent.

What exactly are the Browns trying to leave? Last year 0-7. This year 0-7. Statistically better probably. Not showing up in the win column though. Worst in the NFL in +\- turnover ratio, second in the league in penalties. Until that gets fixed, we're not going to win many games.

The jury is still out on the 2017 draft. I like the approach of putting together picks but they need to get someone in the FO who can ID the talent. Are you really this upset about a bunch of 4th+ rounders? You say "4 picks flushed." But we wouldn't have all those picks if not for the smarts of this FO. People want to have their cake and eat it too. Devalve is producing more than his draft spot would indicate. Kindred's out of position but I'd say is pretty solid, especially, again, for a 4th rounder. We've gotten solid production out of 5 of our first 6 picks from 2016. Kindred and Devalve are solid too. Drango hasn't played enough yet to make a proper evaluation, but we're about to find out. Then you factor in the Taylor and Collins trades. Bringing in Boddy-Calhoun. At a minimum, we got solid depth out of that draft, we just need another really high level player or two to emerge (in addition to Shon Coleman). In 2017 Myles looks great. Njoku looks like what we drafted him to be. Ogunjobi's killing it, and the rest we have yet to really see.

I do not like that they basically took 4 picks, even if they are middle round picks, and did nothing with them. Like I said earlier, jury is still out on 2017. If Myles can stay on the field, great. He is very talented. If he is constantly injured, that could end up being a wasted pick. We shall see.
TexasAg1969 Posted October 27, 2017 Report Posted October 27, 2017 Myles would have wanted to go with the team to London even if still on protocol. https://www.theguardian.com/science/2016/oct/05/palaeontology-museums-uk
