  Browns by 3.

  Shit, forgot the poll... I'll have to get that added

  OK, all better. A little minor league moderation and we got it under control.
  
  Also, this.

  Browns win.
• Writerbuckeye

  

  Dolphins have a weird record. They are something like 1-5 at home, with much better success on the road.
  
  In any event, I just don't have a feel for this one yet.
  
  I do believe the Browns will be at least 3 point underdogs in this, if not more (haven't looked at any listings yet).
  
  If Hillis is able to walk by Sunday (let alone run...he was pretty banged up by game's end) and they can have some success running the ball, then the Browns have a decent chance. If the Dolphins bottle him up like the Jags were able to do, it could be a long day. You just know Delhomme is good for at least one pick 6.

  If they start Delhomme and Henne it may be interception fest 2010. Last team to throw a pick 6 loses.
  
  The BIG key for us will be our rush defense, it seriously did NOT show up on Sunday. They have 2 good backs in Brown and Williams....shutting them down and forcing them to pass is the KEY to stopping the Dolphins. Their red zone offense is awful also. They kick more field goals than they score touchdowns (Trust me, Carpenter is my starting kicker in BOTH my fantasy leagues, he has scored 15 for me MULTIPLE times).
  
  Another team with another winning record...lets see what we can do! Go Browns!

  if we line up any of the other 52 members on the team not named jake delhomme under center, i think we have a good chance in this one. if we line up the aforementioned captain sucky pants, it'll probably be a loss
• bigdaddy2003

  

  Williams and Brown aren't have great seasons though. I don't know if it's because they aren't being used that much or what. I guess they are still dangerous though.

  I am going Dolphins. FAILhome is just going to blow it, I feel it coming.

  Is it guaranteed that McCoy is out??
• Commander of Awesome

  

  Yes, McCoy is out this week.
• zach24oz

  All depends on Daboll's play calling...If he has Delhomme throwing 35 times again(if he doesn't have to) I don't see the Browns winning because he will probably throw at least 2 or 3 picks. Hillis should have a pretty good game if they can get the running game going. The OL and DL both need to get better pushes running the ball or against the run...the last few weeks the D has given up way too many rushing yards and had way too many missed tackles.

  I have read up on anything this week....has Delhomme been awarded the qb position for good while he is healthy? I hate that we are starting our 3rd best qb...maybe 5th best(Cribbs and Hillis)
• Commander of Awesome

  

  Mangini came out yesterday and said he wasn't committing to FAILhomme. Didn't know who he would start. I think its bs, my bet is FAILhomme gets the start again.
• Y-Town Steelhound

  

  Pretty simple. If Delhomme doesn't play the Browns will win...if he does, it's a tossup.
• Art Modell

  

  I can easily see the Clowns dropping their last 5 games. Their qb sucks, Cribbs dont seem half the player he was last season, and they're basically relying on one player (Hillis) for the offense and he'll be lucky to last the season.

  ^^^ does anybody care what this square has to say? i didn't think so. GTFO.
  
  i really hope seneca starts. jake is just dead awful. i hope colt can be back by next week, but im not holding my breath. we need to pound the rock and keep marshall, williams, and brown off the field. if that happens we have a good shot. the way our run defense played last week was horrid, i really hope they come to play this week. i wonder if it will be sheldon brown on marshall or joe haden on him? i would imagine haden, then hopefully the will keep adams in the nickel then eric wright in the dime.
  
  browns 27
  dolphins 20

  Is Wallace even healthy yet? I know he was dressed in full pads on Sunday, but it didn't look at all like he was in the game when they showed him a few times.
• wes_mantooth

  

  I look for the team that scores the most points to come out victorious.

  Perfect game for an afternoon nap before the Steelers-Ravens showdown

  I know you don't think we are doing anything about garbage posts like his COA, but trust me...there is something very fun in the works. I think most people will appreciate it. And to be fair, this is not just a Browns thing...it will happen when our overzealous posters threadshit on Steeler threads too.

  Good to hear! and I agree, its an issue in more than even pro sports forum, though highlighted most here.

  I'm not so sure I agree with this.
