Yeah I'd rather our run D not look like total crap than your fantasy team to have him do well. I expect the other members of my team to make up for the failures of players playing against the Browns so I don't root for them even if they are on my team. I'll still think "well at least he is on my fantasy team" but it's just a consolation to a failure. Should I use quotes if I just think the thought? Probably not. Gonna have to start talking to myself so I can use quotes properly. I don't fear Henry at all. Maybe I'm wrong but I think 16 carries for 56 yards sounds about right. You may want to bench him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not going to worry about upgrades at the coaching positions and Freddie is a carry over and the most important piece. We've still looked better than our oppositions offensive lines. I suspect more of the same Sunday. You are mounting a challenge to @buno67 as a homer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My expectations are 10 wins. I would be a bit disappointed with 9 wins and anything less than that a major disappointment. With those expectations you will need to mask troubled areas and highlight strengths and you can do that when you have a lot of strengths like we do.

I suspect more of the same Sunday. You are mounting a challenge to @buno67 as a homer? He isnt wrong tho. People are worried thast the offense my not bein sync...so, they should still put up easily 21 points because of just the raw talent they have. Which is crazy to say because it was so hard for other teams in the past to just crack 17 pts. Also the offense could be afforded time because the defense should be ready to go. Our DL is going to be nasty! Same with Freddie. He is a carry over and had his offensive mind set already established with team. He isnt like most first year HCs who had to learn the ins and outs of an organzation and a roster. He had that under his belt. Also just the way Freddie is so personal with players. The way he goes out of his way to show them respect, that they will return that and by doing so, seems like they have bought in with Freddie and will play for him. Which too me, seems to be the biggest factor in the NFL. Do the players believe the coach and by into him. Hence why Hue sucked, the roster saw through his crap People worry about the offensive line. There is a level of concerned but I think if the DL dominates like they should and the offense and the talent comes out and puts up some points, that the Browns can start dictating what the opposing defense is going to do. Lot of the games last year when the browns lost, they got stuck trying to play the opposings teams kind of game. I think this year, the Browns will be the ones doing that.

candyman93 Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 (edited) I just worry about trying to tackle a 6’4 250 LBs runningback that runs a 4.5 forty. I am not worried about Mariota. His scrambling will be annoying, but not his arm. For some perspective, Bakers rookie year throwing is equal to Mariotas best career year throwing. Baker didn’t even play 2 games.

I was joking, I couldn’t care less about fantasy football. Besides, I have Baker Mayfield. That should take care of everything. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How does that happen? You’d think at some point well before 11 sacks someone would have made some adjustments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be a scheme problem, lack of WR separation or a QB not processing defenses. 2. Offensive line getting *** whooped. 3. Defense playing out of their minds.

That’s nearly every other pass attempt. Holy hell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reginaldm9 Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 I don't expect a lot of fireworks in the first week, but I think we control this game pretty easily. I'll say 17-9 us. Chubb has two TDs on short yardage stuff and Baker throws for 300 with an INT. Defense bends but doesn't break and gives up 3 FGs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
