Browns Win.....But man was it ugly.



Separated at birth?

Lots of stuff to talk about besides the Browns winning a game (because lets face it, lets just shoot for another top 3 pick in next years draft at this point).

Fins, Browns almost swapped Brown, Edwards

Bills-Browns one-liners

Rumors keep swirling, but facts remain murky around Eric Mangini

Cleveland Browns coach Mangini will stick with Derek Anderson

Words have been able to describe ones love for another, hatred toward an abusive parent, the feelings that one gets on a when looking out on a majestic landscape, but no words am I able to conjure, when thinking of the Cleveland Browns win on Sunday.

It's kinda like, "sweet we won our first game, MY GOD WE STILL ARE AWFUL!!"
But not as awful as the Buffalo Bills.

Lurch was 2 for 17 passing. Why did we bench Brady Quinn again?

Lurch was able to amass 23 yards passing. Here are some other numbers for you.
Kellen Winslow had 9 catches for 102 yds and 2 TD's.
Dennis Northcutt (yes he is still in the NFL) had 5 catches for 70 yds and 1 TD.
As I write this, Braylon Edwards has 4 catches for 61 yards and 1 TD.

Words that come to mind would be WTF!!!!!!

Recent Tweets I received this evening:
From PTI:
What a catch by Braylon Edwards. If you press mute and listen carefully, you can hear the sound of Cleveland vomiting.

From Pro Football Talk:
The best move the Jets ever made was firing Mangini -- he sent them Sanchez and Edwards once he got to Cleveland.

I ask you, A win is a win or is it?

The game ball should go to our punter Dave Zastudil, 2 times he placed the ball on the one yard line.

This kept out defense on a one track mind and having to only play the pass late into the forth quarter. If anyone else in the league could have failed at driving there team down field (besides Lurch) it would be Trent Edwards.

Jamal Lewis came out of semi retirement and ran with authority. His first 100yd game in 21 months. I guess two weeks off does wonders for a 30 year old RB.

With Lurch going only 2-17, and getting the nod again for the next game, what do we go from here. We dont have the running game were we can put up 100 yds each week. Hell, we don't even share carries with other RB's (this is not a dig on Josh Cribbs, I totally have a mancrush on you).

We don't seem to connect with any WR's, and when we do they just drop the ball. We all understand what Braylon Edwards did was wrong....right? Catching ball good, dropping ball bad.

Robert Roy-al " with cheese", you will be the first name in my 2010 death pool if you drop another ball this season. Mark my word.......

Lurch, why must you stare down your receivers? Maybe you should consider wearing a visor so the defense can't read your "dear in the headlights, i'm hungover, someone just ran over my dog" gaze. Your passes into the secondary (especially in the redzone) make even CB's from Michigan look good.

So unless Pittsburgh continues to underachieve and Big Ben falls off his tricycle again, the next game may be another 43-0 blowout like that of '99.

May God have mercy on our souls.

Shaun Rodgers and Some Insight on the Draft

A customer of mine told me once one of the greatest words to live by some years ago. “Never let your meat loaf.” Back when I heard this I only thought of it in a sexual context.   But after hearing of the release of DT Shaun Rodgers this past week I was able to apply this great piece of advice from a half senile old man in a different way. The 10 year veteran had played only sparingly over the past two seasons.   He ended the 2009 season on the I.R. (as so many others did as well).   This past season sometime during training camp, Rodgers became gimpy and turned into the Lance Armstrong of stationary bikes.   During the regular season Mr. Rodgers was lucky to play 20 snaps a game. 2009 stats: 11 games played, 11 game starts, 36 tackles (9 assisted) 2 sacks. 2010 stats: 15 games played, 1 game start, 17 tackles (3 assisted) 2 sacks. Shaun's salary in 2010 was $6.9 million, his base for 2011 was 5.5 million.  Really didn't take a rocket scientist to figure this out. With

The Pooh Has Hit The Fan

Its been about a week since my last post. But its been very difficult to write about something that isn't worth writing about. So what I am going to do is simply post everything interesting I have been able to come across during the past few days. Oh, in case you didn't hear, the Browns let the door hit the ass of general manager George Kokinis on his way out. AFC North Stock Watch Adam Schefter talks about Cleveland getting rid of GM George Kokinis and what this means for Eric Mangini ( video ) The BROWN OUT Eric Barton going on I.R.? Mantarded's Master Plan ? The Browns should lose there Monday Night Football spot. Tedy Bruschi Defends Eric Mantarded. Browns Fans Say Owner Has Dogged Determination. Browns Owner " sick " about state of Browns, but won't fire Mantarded.

Josh Gordon: Not that difficult of a decision.

Josh Gordon is making steps to set himself up for reinstatement by the NFL. But do we want to see him in a Browns uniform again? He is still just 25 years old. He may be in shape, but is he in football shape? Does he actually realize that this is his last chance? Do we even care because the Browns will be lucky to even win two games this year? My thoughts (for what little they are worth), just move on. We are beyond rebirth again at this point. To me he is just taking up a roster spot from someone who hasn't screwed up 10 times and/or from someone who actually loves to play the game and wants to show up to practice and become a household name on Sundays.  Hugh Jackson and his coaching staff need to realize this and work with the loaded WR roster we currently have. Mold these youngsters into what you want and need and roll with it. Why: Because, Josh  has not played an NFL game since December 21, 2014 and has been suspended for 27 of his last 32!  Next time, I will start
