Part of what makes this morning sting less. It’s not even that. We are heading into the offseason with a franchise GM-Berry franchise HC-Stef franchise QB-Baker Seems like every offseason we had at least an issues about who will be the GM, who will be the HC, or who will be our starting QB for the next season. this literally will be our most boring offseason since who knows. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it means boring at all. I think it will be damned exciting. Our expectations are MUCH different than they've been in most of the last 20 years. Typically, we've been hoping that the team reaches respectability, which we seldome did. The team has earned respectability now, and it is time to take the next step. This isn't a step from pathetic to being mediocre. I thnk it is going to be exciting to see what pieces we put into place to take that next step.

We have a lot of work to do, though. Some of these AFC teams look like they're built to last. KC, Balt, Buff just to name a few. A few other teams aren't far behind.

Thomas5737 Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 It's nice to know that if we take a nap during the offseason, the Browns that is, we won't be any worse than we were this year. Our offense is set if need be, same cast. Our defense if we choose not to upgrade would be as good as this year's version. Everything we do is gravy. We don't have to do much adding and subtracting, just adding. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dorsey stripped a lot away which set us back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone always tries to get better, it certainly isn't a sure thing. Many teams will have free agent losses that they will have to make up for, we really don't. Our schedule is tougher next year, on paper anyway, so it would be good to improve as we barely made the playoffs this year. However, the point is our offense will still be our offense. Our defense was bad already, it can't get much worse especially when facing 3rd/4th downs. We'll have a top 5 offense in the AFC if we do nothing. We'll also have a top 16 defense in the AFC if we do nothing or if we do something. Tougher times are ahead for keeping the team intact and replacing players we lose, this is pretty much a worry free offseason and we should be competitive no matter what next season.

It is a weird feeling. We can't argue about QBs. We trust (I know I do) Andrew Berry to make good decisions. What do other fans talk about during the offseason? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greedy would help out at corners and Billings would improve the run defense and IDL. Now will the browns be satisfied with that? I sure as help hope not. Just the guys we can get back for next year and what we do in FA and Draft could make a huge, huge differnce for the defense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

candyman93 Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 I liked some of the design runs for Baker. The most famous example is the conversion to send us to the playoffs. Just do it once a game to keep a defense kinda honest. Don’t run a speed option with him though please. That type of stuff will get your QB freaking killed. Just ask Mahommes.
