how did we get here ... is this the low point of our franchise?
Do we go down in the record books? Is it possible we win?
"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."

If we were asked 10 years ago whether the low point of this franchise is in the future....how many of us would have said "yes"?

There is noway we win ... not even if the Steelers rest starters in this game.
No QB means no win against a good team.

Yea, it’s happening.
Get the KY ready. Just let it happen bro.

jfan above: If we were asked 10 years ago whether the low point of this franchise is in the future....how many of us would have said "yes"? DawgTalkers has recently finished it's 11th year as the premier Browns Fan Forum. In those 11 years the Browns have had 1 winning season. Only 2 seasons of more than 5 wins. And no play-off games. Not one in 11 years. And 2016 & 2017 are the worst seasons in franchise history. They're among the worst seasons in sports history. When I feel like lashing out at other posters, I have to try to remind myself that we are all under an incredible funk. We are not rooting for a "normal" team.

OK! The gameday vs Chicago forum, is headlining a post that probably reads, "Did they play hard for Hue?"
If the players somehow just give up, noticeably don't play hard for this last game. 1. It's not gonna happen.
But if it did, nobody who's just posted this game is a foregone loss conclusion, in the posts above; should complain.

I'm expecting Kizer's worst performance of the year as I don't think Hue will put him in the best position to succeed. He's got too much at stake securing Kizer as his scapegoat.
While indo expect some great effort on the part of some players, the direction of the game plan will be listless and without direction.

It's gonna be cold and few will be interested in playing. Go out, get it over with and get warm. I wouldn't attend this turd if I got free tickets, a limo ride, heated seating and a $1,000 bucks. Crap fest coming up.

Well, I wouldn't attend it if I got free sky-box seats (with the Haslams), got two limo rides and $2,000.

I can say I didn't' see this coming from the Browns this year..

Hey, who will be the first poster to post "The Browns showed some real progress this year."
And then proceed to list every routine play the Browns made during the year as proof.

Actually once over I would like to forget this whole year. Too late to do anything about it. 0-15 not 16 (yet)
But a low point in Brown's fandom. I wonder if this is pay back for all those seasons that we sucked but got 3,4,5 wins and we got fans/posters pissing and moaning that we are winning games as we could have been losing all so we can get the #1 pick. ???
Defense wins championships. Watson play your butt off! Go Browns! CHRIST HAS RISEN! GM Strong! & Stay safe everyone!

I am in the habit of saying "Wait until next year!" at this point. This as low as she goes after Sunday. Hope we can get some real help and that includes a few vets. But, hey! Nothing like a bracing plunge in the Erie Pond,, followed by a parade and some snappy interviews, I always say starting Sunday.
I gag when I hear Kizer explaining what he feels, what he knows he has to do, how he speaks as the face of the franchise, how much he feels for his team, etc. Bears no resemblance to his play on the green. This won't be close. I expect to see a carbon copy of the other losses.

I have a friend who's from near Pittsburgh ... he knows I'm a Browns fan and has three tickets for the game Sunday. He can't make it for whatever reason, so he texted me ... He was like "Twenty bucks a ticket and they're yours" ... I responded: "Fifty bucks a ticket and I'll think about it"

The last two seasons combined will go down as the worst stretch in any sports history EVER. At least we have that I guess.

Bury that little "squeely" bastard DuDu Schuster. I don't thing anyone can say 0-16 was a reality. I was more on the lines of 2/14. FYI, JuJu is by accounts a great fun loving kid. Just because he took out your disgusting POS burfict, there's no need to hate him.

You mean our disgusting LB who if we released him there would be mad rush by 31 other teams to sign? He'd instantly be the best LB if not the best player on your team. Ehh..If that's the way you feel, go with it.

This won't be close. I expect to see a carbon copy of the other losses. It'll be worse. I'm thinking we score zero to three points.

There is no level of sucking we haven't seen; in fact, I'm pretty sure we hold the patents on a few levels of sucking NOBODY had seen until the past few years.

Thankfully 0-16 is on the horizon. Jimmy Haslam, more than anyone who has ever graced the offices in Berea, deserves this (fill in the blank) sandwich. Hope it tastes just super Jimmy! If you can choke it down with some of that diesel fuel you ripped a bunch of people off with that would be even better. I detest this lying scumbag thief. The sooner he gets out of town, the better.
After 55 years, I'm walking away from this dumpster fire. Good luck to everyone who continues to hang on. You'll need it.
