Go with the latter, at least your browns fan friends will have something to cheer about.Heretic;1002807 wrote:Damn. I don't get NFL Network. I have friends who do, but they're Browns fans, which means I could find myself getting gutted like a fish when I start getting obnoxious.
This is a conundrum.
When the head coach quits on you the players soon follow. There will be no more wins this year.Non;1002886 wrote:Browns could really use a win over the Steelers, in one of these games.
Stating the obvious here but they're having a terrible season.
Not generating any buzz. No life in the stadium when I turn on the games. At least last year they had that mini spurt about midseason. This has been a nothing of a season for the Browns. Surprising, I thought they'd be a lot better.
You sir, have a PM.Non;1002907 wrote:In hindsight, I think they should've stuck with Mangini. That was a pretty good year last year.
It ended bad getting thumped by the Steelers but overall they were making some strides.
Holmgren also gave himself an extra year by keeping Mangini. Holmgren has pretty much been a given a free pass up to this point, but if things do not at least start to go in a positive direction, he has to be given some of the blame.BR1986FB;1002917 wrote:Mangini is essentially the equivalent of Hitler wearing a headset. He had to go. Holmgren screwed up in giving him that extra year to be "fair" when everyone knew he was a lame duck.
As I said on the Browns thread, at least John Fox adapts his offense to fit the players (Tebow) in it. This team is equipped to RUN the ball yet Shurmur wants to forcefeed his "pass first" WCO.
Holmgren's pay check stealing ass has been getting plenty of blame with me. He hired Shurmur.Al Bundy;1003074 wrote:Holmgren also gave himself an extra year by keeping Mangini.

This won't be close. I know Pittsburgh has "played to the level of their competition" but they would have to play rock bottom in this game for it to be even close.GoPens;1003336 wrote:I'll go Steelers 24-17 with the game in doubt in the 4th.

Checkdown Charlie (McCoy) and his band of craptastic WR's can't...THE4RINGZ;1005584 wrote:You can beat the Steelers through the air.
I really don't understand why he abandons the run all the damn time. It cost him the cincy game.BR1986FB;1005572 wrote:If the Browns want to try to keep this respectable, they can't give up on the run. But knowing Shurmur, they will abandon it early and Pittsburgh's rush will pin their ears back.
