Anything can happen. But no way is this an "at best" 8-8 season. -

My "at best" comment was my opinion as a response to it being a "tweener" season as opposed to a specific record.SportsAndLady;1492442 wrote:Anything can happen. But no way is this an "at best" 8-8 season. -

Bills will have Manuel back in week 2. No reason for them to trade for Campbell.bases_loaded;1492430 wrote:Week 4 is for guys fighting for a roster spot and being showcased for trades. How the Jets or Bills haven't called us about Campbell I don't understand. But maybe they will after tomorrow nights game. -

Well your opinion is retarded. 8-8 at best is an asinine prediction for a team with some resemblance of promise. -
Con_Alma
I have never addressed 8-8 nor any record. Why do you keep referring to that as it relates to me?SportsAndLady;1492459 wrote:Well your opinion is retarded. 8-8 at best is an asinine prediction for a team with some resemblance of promise. -
BR1986FBThere are teams that breakout every year. Last year it was the Colts & Vikings. Why not the Browns?
-

Why not indeed. I don't dispel the possibility. I do acknowledge the unlikeliness of it depending on what you think breaking out is.BR1986FB;1492463 wrote:There are teams that breakout every year. Last year it was the Colts & Vikings. Why not the Browns? -

YOu said at best 8-8 -
Commander of AwesomeMatt Williamson ‏@WilliamsonNFL 5s If EVERYthing goes right (& it won't), I see 9-7 as best case for CLEV...that aint so bad folks
-
RotinajSomeone who expects this team to go out and win 9 or 10 games please go through the schedule and list those wins. This playoff or bust mentality some have is mind boggling to me.
-
RotinajAlso, im not saying it isn't possible, just absurd to expect it.

No one expects it at least not that I see on here. Just saying it isn't impossible.
Honestly if you don't, as a fan, have a playoff t bust mentality going into the season...well that's just pathetic lol
"I'm really looking for a good 7-9 season this year." What kinda weak ass shit is that? Are we that engrained in bad football that we can't expect a playoff appearance? -

Weeden can stll have a promising year and only get 8 wins. Can't possibly predict that all losses will fall on him.BR1986FB;1492428 wrote:If they only win 7 or 8, I think we see another blowup at the QB spot. He's either going to have to play off the charts or I think they will draft their "QB to be" next April. -
BR1986FBI can remember when many, including myself, wanted Aaron Curry in the draft. That bust retired today at the age of 27.

Ummm? If using logic while creating expectations for my favorite teams makes me pathetic then so be it.SportsAndLady;1492486 wrote:No one expects it at least not that I see on here. Just saying it isn't impossible.

BR1986FBThe 2007 season came out of nowhere. Just missed the playoffs and I doubt anyone expected 10 wins after Chuckles McBallSack's (Frye's) season opener against Pittsburgh.

I disagree, the games were scheduled in advance -

If you're an Astros fan, sure. But this is the nfl. Teams come out of nowhere every year. Never will I ever go into a season and be confused why other browns fans think we could win 9 games.
Christ I'm not saying were gonna win the Super Bowl, just saying we could win 9 games. -

I was on the Aaron Curry train as well. Really did not want Crabbtree that year.BR1986FB;1492502 wrote:I can remember when many, including myself, wanted Aaron Curry in the draft. That bust retired today at the age of 27. -
RotinajI already said multiple times that 9 wins is a possibility. I just don't agree the whole season is a bust if we go out and win 7 or 8 games, show some nice growth on both sides of the ball and at least compete in every game.

Never said the season is a bust. My point was 8-8 or 4-12 were still out of the playoffs. Which, as a fan, is what I want.
There's no guarantee that if we go 8-8 this year we'll improve the following year to 10-6. -
BR1986FB
Agreed. Teams step back all of the time. I wouldn't be shocked if the Colts take a step back and don't get in this year. In fact, I expect it. They had a cakewalk for a schedule last year.SportsAndLady;1492525 wrote:Never said the season is a bust. My point was 8-8 or 4-12 were still out of the playoffs. Which, as a fan, is what I want.
