Now, I understand with all the injuries, who will actually play Sunday makes this hard to predict. I'm going to make my prediction based on the idea that we will get some key starters back for this game. Of course I have no way of knowing if that will happen. With that being said, Arizona sits atop the NFC as the biggest baddest dog on the block . Well, I'm not a cocky person by nature and especially not cocky when talking about the browns. With that being said, the biggest baddest dog of the NFC is going to come to Cleveland sunday and get punched right in thier face by a even bigger and badder dog in the Cleveland browns. Murray will have his moments and make his plays no doubt, but we will confuse him and sack him and knock him down all day. Baker will build on his good performance last week and throw another two td passes. Baker haters on this board as usual will make excuses for his performance and nit pic and magnify any mistake he makes. Chub and Hunt will beat on them and finally break them in the late third or early fourth as they usually do. They cant stand toe to toe and exchange with us all day plain and simple. Just not sold on the NFC.

Browns-31
Cardinals-21

I tend to agree with you here SLICK. There is not a strong rational argument for us to be confident in a win.

1. We have shown that dominating the LOS doesn't matter against great passing teams, especially with our late-game offensive turtling.

2. We now go up against the best deep pass QB/team in the league. Our secondary is extremely banged up, has had bad communication issues, and often plays too soft.

3. They have been taking the ball away well, whereas we cannot buy a TO on defense.

Somehow, however, I get the feeling that we will get the majority of those 4-5 game-changing plays this week.

Browns 37
Cardinals 28


Browns fans are born with it...

If we can win this game it will go a long way to proving to the league that we are legit; and to ourselves!

I agree, issue is the chiefs and chargers now own the tiebreaker if it comes down to a playoff spot and I believe both of those teams will make the playoffs.

Yep, those were the two most important games on the schedule besides division match-ups (unless you think NE and LV are better clubs). Good thing is, they're both in the same division; so in essence, we're really only competing with one of them (either we win division and are competing with their division leader for seeding -or- we're chasing a wild card and may be competing with the other for a berth). But yes, lining ourselves up behind the eight-ball quite nicely with an early 1-2 conference record and both losses to playoff-bound clubs.

Fun fact: Besides JAX at 0-4, KC is tied for worst conference record at 1-3...

The defense has to pressure and contain Murray. This should be another high scoring game.

Feeling good about the day and the game. The only prediction I have is "better" ... Stefanski has shown a penchant for stumbling one week and then recovering the very next game. I expect better from every aspect of the team today.

The more things change the more they stay the same.

I said it last week and I'll say it again. I've got a bad feeling about this...

I don't think we embarrass ourselves but I also don't think we win. I'm thinking either 31-21 or 34-20 Arizona. Somewhere in there.

The fact that Baker and Stefanski have never lost two in a row is interesting so I'd like to be wrong and have them keep that streak alive.
