Re: There's still hope but the reality is

This has NOTING to do with Bad luck it has to do with setting a winning culture in the preseason.

I know a lot of fools like to think Pre-season means nothing but that is where you build your team and the culture of winning. We also can't go into season thinking we just need role players and not worry about the Oline and Dline. The teams that are getting better are the teams that have been working on building the lines. Even Manning wasn't the reason the Bronco's won the SB.

Re: There's still hope but the reality is

think about all the players we missed on defensively, could've had Anthony & Eric Kendrick but drafted Kikaha Marcus Peters, Alec Ogletree Jonathan Cassias excuse my typos Jamie Collins Matt Judon The Honeybadger even Josh Norman we could've drafted we have bad draft choices on the defensive side of the ball

Re: There's still hope but the reality is

Our defense is really so much better. We only allowed 70 yard rushing and last week would've held the Raiders to 92 without the 75 yard run. Its our pass defense and I place that solely on injuries. We need some experience in the secondary now

We held the giants to 16 points is Brees supposed to win games scoring just one TD?

Re: There's still hope but the reality is

I hate to do this but regarding last week. Carolina allowed SF to score 27 points within the same frame we allowed Oakland but what happened. Carolina kept going. They didn't stop at 34 points. They scored 12 more points. Basically 39 offensive points. We tend to believe we don't have to keep going and hope the defense wins for us. Defense isn't supposed to win for you late in the fourth, running out the clock is supposed to win for you.

Re: There's still hope but the reality is

So.....
This is obviously the glass half-full thread.
Gotcha.
Not arguing.
I would just like to point out that a turnaround has to start somewhere and at some time.
It appears to me that we are heading in the right direction.
The past is the past and 31 other franchises would love to have the consistency of New England.
I understand some of the frustration, but flogging yourself seems to odd to me.
If SP and ML suck and are unable to change?
Why make yourself miserable?
Come back when they are gone.

Re: There's still hope but the reality is

I have decided the team should just stop and listen to me.

You want my CV
Well here are my skills as GM of the Browns
Took over a year ago,worst team in the team. Traded my way through the season and dealt players away for younger talent. On the eve of season two and the Browns roster looks as follows


QB Grayson(Rookie)
RB E .Elliot/C.Michael
WR 1 J.Jones/P.Dorsett
WR 2 C.Coleman/B.Miller
WR 3 K.White
TE H.Henry

LT L.Joeckel
LG L.Tunsil
OC W.Richburg
RG J.Bitonio
RT S.Volmer

LE S.Richardson
DT L.Williams/D.Shelton
DT G.Atkins/D.Easley
RE D.Buckner
LOLB M.Kendrycks
MLB R.Shazier
ROLB M.Jack

SS D.Buchanan
FS T.Mathieu
CB K.Johnson
CB J.Hadden




Now that is a championship roster if ever i have seen one.
Next step Loomis out,Lee in
Easy this GM lark




















I may not be serious,or am I?

"Two receivers to the left, Garcon to the right. Manning in the shotgun, puts Collie in motion. Looks in his direction...it's picked off! It's picked off! It's Tracy Porter again! He's runnin' free! He's gonna go all the way!
