DawgTalkers.net Forums The Archives 2015 NFL Season Looking Back: Browns 13 Seahawks 30 Pedictions

We're playing the team Farmer wanted us to be when he was hired

Seattle 31
Cleveland 13

Last week was the first time the team played with pride the whole season, but that was the 49ers. This week in Seattle is a team that is much more superior talent wise and it's just a terrible match-up. I think Manziel will really struggle against their defense.

Browns - 17
Hawks - 35

42-6.

For some reason, I'm thinking the Seahawks don't cover the spread.

^That^ sounds about right. It's probably gonna be a bloodbath.

Seattle is just hitting their stride on offense and defense. If what we did this past week is not an anomaly, then we lose respectably. If it is the anomaly, it is going to be very ugly.

I think the team plays inspired, and it's closer than people think.

Win or lose, I think Manziel will get some additional respect coming out of this game.

I expect to read quotes of Seattle players comparing him to Wilson.

Other than the travel, I think this is a good spot for the Browns. I think they surprise and make it close. If I were betting the game, I'd take the points.

Hawks - 31
Browns - 24

Only thing I'm concerned about is Manziel's progress.

Dwayne Bowe starts and goes for 80+ yards and a TD.

Wouldn't that be a great piece to add to this storybook season!

More and more I think about it. Browns play above like we never seen this year. Making this off season drama a masterpiece theater!!

Imagine how loud it would be in the 4th quarter on a Browns drive if this were the score. Hopefully Johnny can deal with that.

I can't even predict this game.

I think we have some life because of Johnny and the team hasn't quit under Pet, but man, Seattle is peaking at the exact right time. And they have way more talent than us.

and yet you keep saying haden quit.....

Think again!!!

I hope the team isn't thinking like most people are or they're done already.

But that's ALWAYS the Browns: more drama in offseason than necessary, less drama on the field where it's required. Berea can't help it- it's ALWAYS a soap opera from Dec through May. And it's constantly holding us back.

Part of me hopes that JH grabs all these knuckleheads and bangs their skulls together "3 Stooges Style"... and tells them to "freakkin' find a way to work together, because you are stuck with each other for the duration of your contracts."

Try a little longevity. Give them a chance to iron out their wrinkles and continue the plan that's only 1/3 in place.

Sorry... these thoughts are for a different thread.

SEA: 24
CLE: 17

No no Clem, It's a perfect thread for your thoughts.. Your predicting someones going to get their skulls banged together.. I hope your predictions are correct..

Which makes the prediction thread perfect

For some reason I am thinking we will play this game like we did against Denver. It will be tough but, close. Maybe because Seattle will think they will have their way with us and are looking ahead at more "meaningful" games. Or, the Browns are excited after their win and are willing to "cut it loose". Maybe a bit of both. A disrespected team with nothing to lose can sometimes be a dangerous team to those playing for everything.

My head wants me to accept that Seattle are that much better and we lose but, my heart is saying it won't be the bloodbath many are imagining. Hell, maybe even an upset in the PNW?

This will be ugly.

I agree, it will be bad. With our secondary situation this won't be pretty. Like 42-13 kind of bad. Who is Seattle's backup QB? Still Jackson? We might see him before it's over.

hmmmm....

Russell Wilson to IR 3 minutes into the 1st quarter....
why that's so crazy it just might work!

Seattle doesn't have washed up Peyton Manning to throw us the ball a bunch of times.

We're getting stomped.

Maybe it's me being high and too instinctive, but they're just such a good team. Yeah, we did great the other day. But we were playing the 9ers. There's a solid chance they'll be picking in front of us. Maybe I'm just being too sudden, but eh.

I'm just glad it's a later game, the early games are too early for me to start drinking and drinking will be a requisite for watching this one.

[quote=Versatile Dog]I can't even predict this game./quote]

Agreed. Usually I have at least a "feel" for a game (whether I'm right or wrong), but this game I simply don't know what to expect. I do believe, however, that we'll play hard and make Seattle earn their win if the result is in their favor. You just never know though, they might have an off-game and JM plays inspired ball...

The long awaited awakening of Cleveland's Defense shuts Seattle down and finishes with a Brilliant goal line stand as the Browns defeat the Seahawks 7-0 in a thriller of a game that will enter the books as one of the greatest ever played.

Is Haden the team? The guy simply doesn't handle adversity or big moments well.

My head says they beat us soundly.
My heart says we pull off an upset.
We are 3-10, so eff it....

Browns win 27-24

Browns 3-2.

For about 4 minutes.

Reality boomerangs.

Seahags 35
Browns 17

I suspect a sound beating.

SeaHawks 38
Browns 10

As long as we lose and we get more info on Johnny going into next year, I'm good. As far as a score...

Seattle 34
Browns 13

we upset them at home, 35-28.

Luckily for us, we dont do anything very well..

Makes it harder to game plan against..

Seattle 31
Browns 21

So you want there to be a riot at the Clink? Whatever you do on offense, keep the plays away from Chancellor if you're smart.

If the Browns can come out and play confidant early and make some plays they have a chance to keep this close. If they fall behind early the Seahawks will smell blood and it could get ugly.

Browns offense and special teams can't make mistakes that lead to easy Seattle points.

Optimistically, I think the Browns will start strong and keep it close but in the end, the Seahawks are just too good and have too much to play for..

Seahawks 30
Browns 20

I think it will be really bad because Seattle really got their offense together, and we can't string good games together.

I just want Manziel to play well, everything considered.

My prediction...

There will not be a victory Monday this upcoming week lol.

I predict my great joy and sadness all at once.

I have Russell Wilson, Tyler Lockett, Bryce Brown and Seattle's Defense in my fantasy playoff game.

I win and lose either way.

But I'll be drinking a few adult beverages along the way. So I'll win.

So its official, the Browns are going to lose 31-28 after Doug Baldwin has 3 Rushing TDs and Returns a Punt for a TD.

Johnny will get his, but it won't be enough. Seattle 38-24.
