Peterman Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 OK so that was a tough game for ya'll, but I am here to say that I think you can turn it around. Maybe not this year (that's probably not what you want to hear), but there are a few moves the Browns can make to come back strong for next year. You have the makings of a decent line, with Thomas as the anchor. They did a decent job of picking up the Ravens blitzes. I would expect a veteran signing this offseason coupled with drafting an interior lineman. Get rid of Jamal or use him as a 3rd down back depending on salary cap and the CBA. He is obviously not the answer. Trade Braylon Edwards this season for a draft pick (1st or 2nd, preferably 1st). Keep Mangina till the end of the season, and make a big move for Shanahan, Holmgren, or Cowher, with Cowher being the ideal choice. I personally don't think Mangina is the answer for this team. They need someone with some fire (see: Singletary in SF). A defensive-minded coach would be ideal for facing off against AFC north rivals. At this point, I would also consider using Ratliff. Why not see what he has? Ravens fans do not take your team as a joke, and neither do the Ravens. Up until today, the Browns have always played us tough. They are missing some of that tenacity. This team is 4-5 players away from being a lot better. Fill up the line with some nasty players (build around Thomas and Rogers), and you will have a team that can compete in this division.

BradyQuinnisBeast Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 If we had a new coach, we would be much better. And then also think about the fact that none of our draft picks are doing anything. At least all the teams that are beating us are undefeated.

RPrepublic Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 Mack had a good day. Exactly. People are bitching because of a few bad snaps but from what ive seen hes doing great for a rook. We can't expect every rookie to come in like Thomas and go to the pro bowl. Like Jason J said in a post a week ago the rookies should start filtering in the games more and more as the season goes on. They just have to wrap their head around a lot of new plays, different speeds, etc. It was bullshit that Mangini pulled Quinn though. Im not a Quinn lover but that had to have shattered any confidence the guy has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
