I don't know, man. Hillis was INCREDIBLY suspect the second half of the season. I would expect that to continue based on his style of running.

As for Turner, that guy might be the most inconsistent RB in the NFL right now. I want to love him, but he's as predictable as Ohio weather.

Eh, hes had 2 good years and 1 bad year (in terms of yardage) and 3 straight years as a feature back with 10+ Tds. Id say hes somewhat predictable

Hillis' running style is not suited for the long term. He takes too much punishment. They need the second guy for that 1-2 punch so Hillis doesn't end up with a short shelf life.

For a season, yes. On a game-to-game basis, not at all.

He's one of those guys who will even out for you in the end, but from game to game, he'll be Dr. Jekyl and then Mr. Hyde.

That would be Montario Hardesty. Hopefully he can stay away from the injury bug and I think they'd be a great 1-2 combo.

They would but that's a big "if."

Browns have been rock bottom for so long that a "curse" likely wouldn't take them any lower.

I think I finally figured out why you always post the extra "aaaaa" in the haha. Every time you see one of my posts you get SO excited. Didn't your sister-momma tell you that would make you go blind or put hair on your palms?

The curse will be Modell changing allegiances and declaring himself a Browns fan.

It'd be an even bigger fail if Vick won.

How ironic though that the two guys who promoted it on Sportsnation are in the finals.

At least Vick is a somebody (even before the Dog fighting thing) Michael Vick IS madden pretty much. Peyton Hillis has never played on a winning team in the NFL, never been in a pro bowl and half of the nation doesnt even know who he is lol.


And I do kinda find it funny that both of them who promoted it are in teh finals.

Leads me to believe that this could be rigged.
