I seriously have to pinch myself at times. 52 weeks ago we were planning a parade... for all the wrong reasons.

Oh, man.... I'd totally forgotten that.

That makes this season that much more unbelievable.
1-15, 0-16.
It seems like so long ago.

No question the vibe is different.

Guarded or not you have to feel positive about the change of direction.

I marvel at the overall talent upgrade and how quickly it happened. Then you add the play at quarterback.

Dorsey will be at the top of the list come award time.

What's Left to Play For?

Setting the tone in the Division. That is always the first goal. Win the Division. When the seasoned opened I sure did not see a 4-1-1 record. And a season winning record.

Don't need more incentive.

The messages all coming out of the team are great to hear - one game at a time, win or get out etc. Let's concentrate on sweeping the Bengals. Then let's ruin the Ravens' playoff chances. Love it!

There is nothing to marvel about, we had the worst coach in the history of the NFL, part of the talent was already here.

Either way, I think the best news is that we finally have someone who can spot and bring talent to the team in a consistent base.

We have an excellent QB in a rookie contract, which is always a good thing.

Maybe if you would look at the entire roster including the practice squad before and after Dorsey you would know more. The talent Dorsey added in one year is amazing.

Playoffs are now out, but a winning record is still in play.

a chance to move to .500 tomorrow is pretty remarkable considering where we were after the Pittsburgh away game


"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."

Said today, ... Mayfield with 5 wins as a rookie is now tied with Brandon Weeden for most wins by a Browns rookie Qb since 1976.

Good luck!

I'm not too worried about the playoff scenarios. Steelers or Ravens, meh who cares.

A win at Baltimore to finish the season would be a signature win and give the Browns a winning record on the season, 6-2 on the back half. Even more than that, the players and fans would love it.

I agree in principal. Though Pit has a better chance, I think a very good chance, of hoisting the Lombardi if they get into the playoffs. I don’t think the Rats can. Watching the black and yellow get another ring would make me ill.

Making a statement for one. We are winning (or tied) games we gave away last season like Halloween candy. Repeatedly. I like the message to our division rivals.

Momentum. Attractive for FA and draft interest. Also easier to evaluate motivated performance. Like triage for where you need help most.

Just win, baby! Because we can. We quite a few butt-whoopings around the league.

Why do you ask?

RESPECT. Knocking the Ravens out of the playoffs. Winning our division. With a win over the Ravens we can have the best record in our division at 4-1-1.
Continuing to build our winning mentality. Lots to play for.


I just want a winner. We need players who can be part of the solution not part of the problem.

We need to play for the first winning record since 2007. It’s gonna be huge team and the city.

I hope we crush the ravens. I love Lamar, but I hope we crush his ass on Sunday.

100 percent agree. The Rats are my most hated team in the league.

Nothing would give me more pleasure, and make me feel better at this point, than ending their season right at Week 17.

Right when their hopes are up. They're riding hight. They're excited. And Bam, they get a walloping from us

If Bake and the team want to make a case for keeping their current coaches as is I see no better way for them to drive that point home.
