Browns 17
9ers 27

SF 21
Cle 14

It's the JFF affect.lol

Niners - 17
Browns - 14

JF scrambles for 2 TD's, drives the team into the red zone late in the 4th. We can't get our FG unit onto the field due to Pettine telling the ref not to call timeout until the playclock was down to 1. The problem was that time expired when the playclock was at 3. Cam Erving signs a huge endorsement deal with Shout, who backs out at the last minute because despite their claims, they weren't able to get all of the grass stains off of Cam's arse.

close game, browns prevail to lose

SF 16
CLE 13

JF scrambles and gets sacked, hard. The offensive line stands here with their hands on their hips thinking, "hey dude, I thought you were scrambling". By the end of the 3rd JM's concussed and Davis is back in with Pryor as our next man up. Except Pettine didn't make him active and Lee has mop up duty while trying to kick an out-route to Hartline.

Is it bad that I'd rather have Tomsula than Pettine?

There is zero chance the Browns win any remaining games, even if Manziel plays really well. The players know this is a sinking ship. The ship is also rudderless and devoid of leadership. They know the schemes they are being asked to run don't make any sense. They know there will be huge, sweeping changes next year. There is literally nothing to play for.

The Browns aren't winning another game this year.

I'll go with that prediction for the remaining four games.

I think they win this one.

The Ravens game probably sapped any remaining dignity from this team. With the exception of JF, I think they'll just go through the motions to finish the season.

I predict they will win. Because it is the worst thing that could happen to the franchise. They just announced Johnny Rehab is starting. Woo hoo we're SAVED! *snicker*

They will win and end up with the 4th or 5th pick in the draft. While a lot of people say no stud QB is coming out anyway... I'll just bet one guy taken before us becomes something. That is just our luck. Happens all the time.

Heaven forbid a win convinces Haslam to stay the course with Farmer and Pettine. Yikes.... I've got to stop I'm giving myself the willies....

Pettine spikes Johnny's Gatorade with JD and it's Browns 27 Niner's 24
Johnny pukes twice in the huddle.... lmao

I do too. It's the worst possible thing that could happen. So of COURSE they win one now....

Opposing team's QBs average a QB rating of 100.5 against us.

We are about to make Blaine Gabbert look like Aaron Rodgers (career passer rating of 105).

The guy taken before our pick becomes something. And 30 guys after our pick becomes something as well. But we never pick them. We pick the in-betweeners, the almost good, the close but no cigar kind of guys.

We've failed on so many high draft picks, what makes anybody think that we'd pick any better if we had the first pick?

Regression to the mean.

Math quote, I am impressed. You've done others, no? There was one someone had a while ago that really cracked me up. Forget who or what it was now.

Our defense is still our defense.

JFF throws for well over 300 yards but we only score one TD.

SF - 34
Cle - 13

That's assuming the mean was good to begin with. If the Browns were to regress back to their average, that's still not good.

WR never in the top 10?

because Carr doesn't like Cooper whatsoever.

Another lackluster game while sitting in my recliner.

As for WR, don't we get the dope smoker back next year, if he's learned his lesson? It's not that I'm counting on him or anything, I just think JFF needs a caretaker.

I guess we have to agree to disagree on this This game is is likely to determine whether or not the Steelers get in the playoffs.

exactly why i wouldn't count on Gordon. if he actually makes it through camp and to the regular season, great.

but people on this board say over and over again how QB play wasn't the problem this year.

if manziel shows anything worthy of a starter, i go into the draft finding the best weapon i can get this kid.

if there's an amari cooper, megatron, AJ green type, no hesistation, i grab him with our first pick.

if gordon does come back, then we have two big targets on the outside, with hawk and grabriel running slot where they belong.

it's time we get actual playmakers on this team for once.

Nobody mean here for the Browns. We need a "Hacksaw" type or three. We digress from the mean . . . .

I feel confident that the opposing team's fans will not take over our stadium this week. As for the game, my crystal ball - although cloudy - tells me Niners 22 Browns 10. 5 Phil Dawson FGs win it for San Fran.

While that might be relevant in areas in which exclude the decisions made by a human bean, the bean Farmer is using to make his decisions are unpredictable other than that the vast majority of his drafts picks thus far have been bad.

Do you have a mathematical equivalent to what an incompetent thinking GM might do?


Really, I have no idea what you mean by that phrase. Apparently others do so it may have merit. But I don't think so. I appears to me that as soon as you involve the a human's decision making it becomes unpredictable other than that it will trend to be the same thing it has been.

Happy birthday Bard Dawg!

My prediction (sure to be wrong)

9ers 20
Browns 17

Next year we have a healthy, mentally stable Gordon on one side and Pryor on the other. The smurfs will fill in at positions better suited to them.

Was listening to Jessie Palmer on the RBS this morning and he was talking about Lynch. The way he was talking about him really made me want him. Big and athletic, runs pro concepts. Had me hoping for an 0-4 finish.

Tough to predict who will suck less. I'll take the home team although SF may be riding that overtime victory high into this game.

Browns win a game they shouldn't, miss out on Jared Goff, I become a Panthers fan.

Browns 6
San Francisco 14

The Browns D has given up 30+ points in 5 straight, it's not stopping anytime soon.

The march to the #1 overall pick remains successful.

SF - 38

Browns - 12

Might as well buy some Panthers gear. I bet they don't draft him even if he's there for them to get.

Agreed.

But, so much depends on what manziel does the next 4 games. And truthfully, that's putting him in a very possibly "bad" spot. Fair or not. No running game, receivers out, etc.

This is true. I was talking about a regression to the NFL mean, not ours.

A regression to the mean our picks (since 1999) would just get us a bunch of crappy players.

With 2 horrible defenses on the field, I think this might be a fun shootout kinda game.

9ers win it 34-33.

These guys won't even know what to do with the first pick. They're never prepared, what makes anybody think they'll be prepared for that. The clock will run out, and they'll still be trying to decide.

Is Bowe going to play? If so, predictions on whether he can haul in his second pass of the year? I know that's asking a lot.

Oops sorry I guess he had three against Cincy. My bad. Can he make it 4?

Browns defense is still horrible
SF 33
Cleveland 27
