Season opener should be very interesting.....

BuckeyeDan · 08-11-2006, 07:43 PM

Yeah, that's right........ I am a Browns fan !!

Opening day in Cleveland vs the Saints should be a pretty good test for both teams IMO, since most folks in the media don't expect much from either team. But those who follow them closely (oh, and me, of course) know that both Cleveland and New Orleans are better than they were last season and will probably win more games than the so-called experts (idiots.....all) predict !!

I don't think it will be a particularly high scoring affair, and since I am a little biased, I see the Browns winning on a late Phil Dawson FG

Browns - 16
Saints - 14

See you in the smack forum................. 8)

Browns center Hallen retires
NFL.com wire reports
CLEVELAND (Aug. 11, 2006) -- Veteran offensive lineman Bob Hallen, who was being counted on by the Cleveland Browns to replace the injured LeCharles Bentley at center, informed the club that he has retired.

That doesn't look good, man. I hope that it's an interesting game but It looks like the Browns are in for a loooong season.

Yeah, our Center situation just gets more depressing, but Ephraim didn't look too bad last night vs the Iggles.

We may have gotten your Pro Bowl Center, but we're gonna have to wait until next season to enjoy him !!

I would like to take this opportunity to wish an especially fine season (except for wk one) to Drew Brees and Donte Stallworth, both of whom are on FF teams I have !!

NoBandwagonrs · 08-11-2006, 10:28 PM

let me look into my crystal ball *BRIGHT FLASH*

GAME 1 VS BROWNS

Saints Win 30-21

Brees - 18-24, 176yds, 1 TD 0 INTS
Mcallister- 19 rushes, 83 yds. 1 TD, long: 23 yds, 4.3 ypc
Bush- 9 rushes, 49 yds, 1 TD, 4 catches for 32 yds
Stallworth- 7 catches for 68 yds
Horn- 4 catches for 41 yds and a TD
Hass- 1 catch for 13 yds
Hilton- 2 catches for 22 yds
Carney- 3/3, 19 yds, 36 yds, and 37 yds

^^my prediction

AllSaints · 08-11-2006, 11:27 PM

ha.... browns wont win.......... LOL if you think they are

Rob Smith and baxters injuries do not help matters. but hey you guys got Romeo. He will come up with something. Man knows football. It should be fun.
Your LB worry me. McGinest is one thing but he will free up Davis for even more tackles. I see him again over 100 this yearalong with Stewart. Especially with big Ted Washinton at the nose. Matt stewart better be back because alot of teams will be running at him.

Your stats dont add up^^^ Brees yardage are too less for all the yds the recievers and backs have...Here's mine

Saints 31 Browns 23
Brees 19-25 2
Deuce 17 car, 91 yds, 1 TD, long:33
Bush 10 car, 43 yds, 1 TD, 3 rec, 37 yds
Stall 6 rec, 89 yds, 1 TD
DH 4 rec, 74 yds
Horn 3 rec, 27 yds
Hilton 2 rec, 21 yds
Hass 1 rec, 10 yds, 1 TD
Hughes 1/1 from 46 yds, 4/4 xp

More realistic, please dont predict how bad our D will look for awhile in that game

D24pick · 08-12-2006, 02:12 PM

Excuse me Brees stats were 268 yds from 19-25 passing, and 2 TD's with no picks

thib82 · 08-12-2006, 03:34 PM

So you guys think that Stallworth will get more Receptions than Horn? I think Horn will have 7-10 catches, and Donte will get 5-6 grabs. I think Joe will be Drews main target in the passing game.

NoBandwagonrs · 08-12-2006, 04:10 PM

deuce didnt have to catches and i just re added them wit a calculator and they added up :P...that last yardage thing for deuce was his longest run...but our scores were pretty close to the same
