I have been through the 60/70's where we were a laughingstock.

We now have returned to the non-competitive joke of a franchise that The Browns have become...thinking about the 2021 draft and it is still September.

The talent is lacking...choosing number 26 when we had the OL that we had is an amateurish mistake......The coaching carousel continues.... the GM is lost.....just nothing to watch.
Settle down pony.....

The talent level sucks all across the field......we lose next week to S.F. likely and I promise you there will be talk about
Trevor Lawrence.
Just bad luck too

In 2018, the draft's best player was there at #2 and we took Saquon. When healthy, he can play and be explosive even. However, he hasn't stayed healthy and I do fear he is badly hurt. I haven't heard a peep from the team or commentators on his XRay results.

Judge gets a pass this year no matter what.
Agree with SG

It is just the way it goes....Barkley is a talent... he has been hurt and not had an Oline that can block ...
As an orthopedic surgeon..

x rays are not going to show anything and radiographs only show osseous structures. He didn't fracture anything, but tomorrow's MRI will likely show either an MCL or ACL strain/sprain/attenuation (at best) or rupture of one or both. IMHO.
S.F. than Rams

Which game do we win?
Because 0-4 is not an option
"as" not "and"

If you made it through the 60's and 70's you should be resilient. Reevaluate at midseason. Young team, new coach learning new schemes. They need talent to develop and then they need to keeping more good players.

Not an option?

I assure you, it is decidedly an option.

I agree. We have to give them some time even though it’s frustrating. I’m just happy I didn’t have to pay for my season tickets to watch them struggle. Hopefully the young guys develop into players by the end of the season.

You really could have just stopped at "They need talent".

You still there do we need to call someone? :)
I too went through the 70s

It took George Young five years to put together consistent and decent football team. GY took over in 79 and yes we went to the playoffs in 81, but it wasnt until 84 we became a consistent decent football team.
Almost does not qualify for me anymore

To much stuff happens in the new NFL.....Teams don't need to be bottom feeders for 6 or 7 years in a row.

There was no free agency in 1979  
arniefez : 9/20/2020 5:11 pm : link
This NFL is nothing like that NFL. Jimmy Johnson survived 1-15. Bill Parcells survived barely 3-12-1. Joe Judge can survive this but if nothing changes with the Mara family running the roster he won’t. What will it take for John Mara to hire a real football department? 14 loses? 15 loses? Or it doesn’t matter nothing will ever change?

Judge is getting a freebie this season. He could somehow lose 17 games and he'll be here next fall.

Teams weren’t allowed to draft fast guys unless the OL is a finished product. Learn something new every day around here.

My how the NFL history books would change if teams operated with that wacky mindset.

There's a ton of shit you didn't know. We don't need to work through all of it at the pace that your brain catches up.
