Their corners aren’t very good, half of their starting OL is out, Tyrell is gone for the year and their locker room is turning on each other.
Suuuuurrre, we have our own problems - just a couple or 10 - but they are very beatable.
What you say, DTers?

I say that the Dolphins, Jets, Raiders, Titans and the final Bengals games are the Browns most five most winnable games this year. If they can't win this one they're really in trouble. Even more trouble than some of us may have thought.
Intoducing for The Cleveland Browns, Quarterback Deshawn "The Predator" Watson. He will also be the one to choose your next head coach.

I'm usually not on the "fire everyone" wagon... but if we have another really poor showing by the offense things could get ugly.
I expect/hope DG starts trending upward. We are exiting the brutal part of our schedule and should match up better vs the defenses we're facing.
More importantly, our run game should have some more breathing room to operate. If we can move the ball primarily via Judkins, that makes life easier on everyone (DG, Stefanski, the defense, etc).
Our defense needs to continue to do most of the heavy lifting... generating more turnovers to their list of attributes would go a long way in helping the offense help them. We can't fall behind by more than 10 points. The state of our offense makes that an insurmountable lead.
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.

Seems apparent to me:
Trap game. This is the Tank Bowl. Lots to play for.

I don't think we'll beat the Raiders. We don't play well when we travel out west no matter whom we play.

I hear you! Ooober, I really think that the attribute we most need to add, and that we lack badly. is a scoring defense. KS cannot produce scoring NFL wins require. If our D could generate some points or game changers, then we might be competitive. But this roster with this play calling cannot perform and has proven it. There is nothing that makes me want to see another inept offense that we see weekly. Being generous, two seasons of "We have to get better" is enough. It is time; we need something different to stop the bleeding now. Low point of the season, DT's: I have been reduced to rooting for the refs. Catchers don't, tacklers won't, tackles whiff, and the offense is a three-and- out factory.Our passing tree is a sapling.
Why is this allowed to go on? Some folks should not be allowed to do this IMO.

The Dolphins have scored 20+ points in five straight games.
The Browns have not reached 20 points in 11 straight games.
The Dolphins are having internal strife after Tua's comments in the postgame. It's the perfect storm for the team to band together for just one week.
Outlook: Grim.
Potential equalizer:

Appreciate the long-term weather forecast, but I don’t know if the weather would impact one team more than the other. On the other hand, I get you, Milk: their O is better than ours so maybe they’ll keep getting blown over by strong winds off the lake.  Our D and special teams needs to win another game for us. We can’t count on our O to resemble something much better than a barrel of hog-poop.

This is the forecast on game day
Sunday.. Showers, with thunderstorms also possible after 8 am. High near 70. Breezy. The chance of precipitation is 90%. New rainfall amounts between a half and three quarters of an inch possible.
The Browns will have to establish and stick to the run game and hope that it is successful.
Both the Browns and Dolphins rank 27th and 28th in the run game.
The Browns' run game has accumulated 544 rushing yards on 141 attempts, averaging 90.7 yards per game, ranked 28th in the league.
Total Rushing Yards: 544
Total Rushing Attempts: 141
Rushing Yards Per Game: 90.7
League Rank, Yards per game: 28th
The Dolphin's run game
Total Rushing Yards (total): 548
Total Rushing Yards per game: 91.3
Total Rushing Attempts : 118
League Rank, Yards per game :27th
With the run stats of each team it looks like the QB's arm may be depended more on the rainy windy conditions.
Feels like a Coach vs Coach , who's the better coach to win the game.
