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.

The Season That was 2009

I know some have you have given me the WTF. Well get over it. With the playoffs now starting today, us Brownie faithful now turn our attention to off season departures (or lack thereof, how the hell our Off Cord kept his job I will never know), Josh Cribbs contract dispute, free agency, and of course the draft in April (where we pick 7th). Questions on offense...... Although I wanted Brady Quinn to be the starter all season, the only flash of anything positive came against the Detroit Lions where the play calling was really aggressive and lets be honest, even Lurch (DA) could have scored at will against there porous defense. Alas Brady is not the answer. And DA could only make one other QB in the league look good..... JaMarcus Russell . But do we draft another Notre Dame player in the first round again? Jeff Faine and BQ obviously have not worked out. Jamal Lewis will retire, but Jerome Harrisons stock is on the rise. (man, saying that made me feel like Mel Kiper). And lets not for...

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 ...

NFL Trade Deadline at 4pm Today.

With any of the 4 major sports, there are always rumors galour during the trade deadline. Along with an Indians team that fell well short of expectations. The Browns may also be in a selling mood. Names being mentioned have been Joshua Cribbs, Brady Quinn, Kameron Wimbley and Shaun Rodgers. Another name being mentioned as been former Buckeye Ted Ginn Jr of the Miami Dolphins. The Dolphins may now have realized that they took him way to high in the draft just a few years ago. However if the Browns want a vertical threat at the right price, Ginn could be there man. If you recall rumors circulated earlier this year that the Dolphins and Browns were talking Braylon Edwards and Ronnie Brown. Maybe we can trade Wimbley for Bill Parcells instead? At this point I am still reluctant to give up Wimbley. Yes, he has fallen short of expectations from his standout rookie season, but on the other hand, he already has matched his sack totals from a year ago (4), and is on pace to beat his tota...
