I'm guessing that has something to do with the Browns' draft track history at QB. 3 wins in year 3 after back to back 1 win seasons (God I can only hope we win a game this year) might technically be considered progress, but I'll liken that 'progress' to adding sugar to my bowl of fresh, steaming poop..... simply can't hide the fact it's poop. One... it's not like they have agreed with a Dbone-Tour consensus ever before is it? I say we give it a shot. Two... at least the turd would be three times bigger. 9 hours ago, stillmotion said: Needless to say, if we go into next season with Kessler, Hogan, and Kizer next year again only, please hand me a shotgun so I can blow my head off....

flyingfooldoug Posted November 21, 2017 Report Share Posted November 21, 2017 It is funnier than hell tho that our Cleveland Browns are way better in Texas and the UK than they are here on NE Ohio. If you held a poll at any mall, strip mall, bar, concert or strip joint in Ohio, 99.9% thumbs down. But what the hell do we know about our home team? They're great and we just don't know it......LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyingfooldoug Posted November 21, 2017 Report Share Posted November 21, 2017 When Hue Jackson was ask how the process or blueprint of the plan is going, he replied "which plan"? I mean it seems like a given that he knows he's a goner and all the media is firing up the obits for this front office. The smartest thing Jimmah has done is go to the players. After all, even the youngest one has been around the game more than the owner. And lest we forget, Peyton Manning pretty much screwed us out a playoff spot a while back. Like he cares about the Browns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unsympathetic Posted November 22, 2017 Report Share Posted November 22, 2017 1) Rosen and Jackson are both above Darnold. 2) You want to talk about bad FO's? Denver with a D good enough to win the SB today.. started a QB who got cut by the Browns. Seattle won 1 SB with the most expensive OL in the league, let them all go, and hasn't won since. Buffalo.. enough said. Miami has been treading water between mediocrity and WC losses for years with no end in sight. Ravens offense is an oxymoron, and has been for a couple years. Tampa drafted Winston and everyone will lose their job once the label of "bust" is unavoidably stuck to him. I'm glad they're at least trying something different -- because the "proven ways" have proven to top out at 4 wins each season. Better to constantly have a young core and augment with careful FA's like Taylor.. rather than constantly overspend on flashy uselessness blowing out the cap for years.

You do have Bruce Drennan on your side. He's against firing everyone and starting over. Now tho, he's for staying the course just for the sake of staying. If we fire em all, we're back as a joke in the national media. I think he's wrong tho. We've been an ongoing joke anyway and why stick with proven losers? The fact that Jimmy had his money handed to him because of political concerns. The fact that he sold pilot to Buffett without it being known til it happened. Are causes for concern. It's kinda hard when you see a guy running the team that has represented my home town so proudly and for so long, turn it into a stinking pile of fecal matter. Especially when everyone he hired to run his gas stations seem to be pretty crooked. It takes superior ownership and coaching to win consistently in the pros. We seem to have neither.

Tour2ma Posted November 22, 2017 Report Share Posted November 22, 2017 Drennan must be a smart man... What it comes down to for me about changing horses now is to have endured this much pain and, by my eyes, be so close to seeing our fortunes turn is just unfathomable. If any aspiring GM in any organization is not licking their lips to come into this situation and "rescue" our beloved franchise, then they are truly unworthy of rising to that position. Almost literally anyone with a pulse can sit in Sashi's chair and be a hero in 2018... even if they take Mayfield. And by the time they wreck things again, their name will be made. I know many here don't/can't see what I see. And it's not a necessarily a matter of football knowledge... or business experience (although that is what I lean heavily upon)... as we discussed the other day, it's at least as much a matter of distance from NE Ohio media. But I see us being so damn close to the success... it's not a matter of changing mid-stream, we're 2/3rds of the way across. 13 hours ago, D Bone said: More warm and fuzziness resulting from The Process: http://www.cleveland.com/browns/index.ssf/2017/11/nfl_draft_2018_what_could_the.html I honestly don't see how an article documenting 6 years of futility reflects on The Process.

Westside Steve Posted November 22, 2017 Report Share Posted November 22, 2017 I think he might be confusing two sides of the discussion. I think it would be horrible to blow everything up and start over. Even if some of these second-rate players that Sashi brown or his unnamed staff picked have some usable Talent a new regime for undoubtedly one to wipe the Slate clean and favor of their own guy. And if they have 24 months probably not going to be much to get excited over. But it's still Fair to be critical of the Monumental level of failure. I've personally never thought this baseball system is going to kick butt in football even though yes, everybody does it to some extent. I think you sunshine boys are being a little bit silly when you get mad every time somebody points out the excellent players we passed on or the serviceable players we dumped.

I honestly don't see how an article documenting 6 years of futility reflects on The Process. The media? I do recall when the media was very instrumental in keeping the colors and franchise here when model pulled his crap. Aside from a couple of seasons, there hasn't been much good to report on from Berea. I think there will be changes made. Wholesale? I doubt it. But then again, the mood around here, you could guillotine the FO at halftime and it would fill the stadium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
