It literally says right in the article that the order is based off of season o/u totals.

Panic is in overdrive that is for sure. 2 browns fans backed out of the opening day tickets in Pittsburgh. Free. 50 yard line. Front row of the club section. And they backed out!

Considering the piss poor attendance record at Heinz field the last two seasons (can we say bandwagon/fair weather fans?), those two seats likely won't be the only empty seats in the house.

Success spoils many a fan that is for sure, and those seats wont go empty! I have to admit, when they are struggling like the last two years I dont make the 600 mile round trip as often, 1-2 times a season instead of 3-4 and home playoff games.

Yes, those are the exact symptoms of fair weather and bandwagon fans.

Pettine showing today that he has no sack...at all. Whatever the media wants he placates. Manziel wasn't much, but his numbers were a LOT better than Hoyer's. Competition? That was a joke. On the Fan, animal house, today they had an NFL films fuck talking smack about how horrible Manziel was. Do you actually watch the film you produce? The only one that was totally clueless...was Hoyer. Manziel completed 52% of his passes and moved the sticks a few times with his legs? Hoyer? 40% completion.Johnny Football is going to be a great quarterback in this league. It's too bad Pettine is too stupid to realize it. There is one positive light to it all. A little dose of humble pie is what Manziel needs to eat.As for you Dorkie, you are the favorite in winning our wager right now. But don't count your chickens just yet. An 0-3 start will find your lover boy picking splinters out of his ass and JMFF will ride in on his white stallion.

Did you hear what Boomer Esaison had to say? Jaws? And the list is endless. The traditionalist type people want nothing to do with Johnny football.

I've explained countless times why I think he's gonna be a great quarterback in the NFL. Don't feel like going through it again. But...just a couple of things to consider. As a teenager, he won the Heisman trophy and led his team into Tuscaloosa and beat the eventual national champions, 29-24. You can't do that unless you have a special talent. Oh by the way, that national championship team from Alabama had 8 of their defensive players drafted into the NFL over the past 2 years, 3 of which were number 1 picks. So spare me the crap that he can't do it at this level. Need more? 68.5% completion percentage at A&M...not bad for a "clueless scrambler", eh? Andrew Luck was at 71%. Brian Hoyer? 55% completion in college.There will always be haters...cuz haters gonna hate.It's just ridiculous...I mean utterly ridiculous that the self proclaimed know-it-all pundits clamor that Johnny is clueless...yet Hoyer has the shit together. Apparently Boomer Esaison forgets what a piece of shit quarterback he was coming out of Maryland.

There's a big difference between what you think will happen and what may happen. No one knows for sure this kid is gonna be successful, there are a ton of red flags.

Bill Polian's words on josh Gordon really annoyed me for some reason.

Some people act like Gordon is shooting heroin whenever he's not playing football, and has this HUGE problem that the NFL doesn't want in their league. Said he thinks the NFL is making a huge mistake if they shorten the suspension from a year. Fuck off Bill you're old.

Wrong. Most of the season, including the Alabama game happened when he was a teenager. He was born in December. If you're gonna call somebody out on something...then you need to do your own homework.

The Manziel "fanboys" are hilarious. They aren't about the "Cleveland Browns", they are about the "Johnny Manziel's." In their eyes, he can do no wrong and is the clear choice to be the starter even though he looked like complete horseshit in the preseason, so far. He's skittish and is NOT ready for prime time. Just fucking relax and take a DEEP breath, fanboys, his time will come and he'll probably be pretty damn good....just not yet. It's looks pretty clear that Hoyer isn't a long term solution. I don't care who is back there as long as they win.

Manziel was born on December 6, 1992. He won the Heisman on December 8, 2012. I know that you are mathematically challenged, but that would make him 20 years old.
