Eh, I "know" what a crappy game, but there are some things that could make it interesting: -Steelers are 6-6 and Wildcard competition -Matt Roth on the Browns -Brady Quinn v Ted Ginn -Quinn took out Terrell Suggs, who knows what he will do in this one?
its also below freezing and almost as windy as a tropical storm this will be ugly. alot of 9/10 man front defenses to stop the run
Windy, cold, dreary, perfect Cleveland weather. Brownies look okay so far, haven't seen Roth but then again, didn't turn on the game until 11 minutes to go in the first qtr.. Lord Help Brady Quinn though...he has Randy StClair at RT...cripes they should have picked up a street FA over St.Claire..
While Patrick Willis does not, Brady Quinn makes me feel a lot better about Ted Ginn. This guy sucks.
"Was" the worst starter Qb, he set some sort of 7 td's no int's for 3 games Brownies record, the Brownies have been around a looong time, so that is fairly significant.
Brownies have sacked Big Ben three times so far. They are scrappy tonight, roth may have made them a different sort of defense, he is even playing DE on passing downs.
What an exercise in futility the Browns are. Cribbs gets them great field position on that punt return - 10 yard line. And they come away with a FG? Of course the Steelers aren't looking any better. My only real interest here is Jeff Reed is the kicker on my FF team.
It would be, but when the franchise "came back" to Cleveland their franchise records stayed behind with the Ravens. EDIT: NM, I looked it up and Padre is actually correct. The Browns have access to their old stats.
Even though I can't watch the game, I'll be rooting for the mercedes benz of NFL Busts (Quinn), and our ol' boy Roth. Even though I am starting Big Ben in the first round of fantasy football playoffs.
For the first time in my life, I am gonna say it.... I am rooting strongly for the BROWN-STRIPES!!!!!
Josh Cribbs! I can't believe it, the Browns D is making the Steelers offense look like...the normal Browns offense! Go Brownies. They could pull this off. Now maybe the Lions can win this weekend....that may be pushing it though. Phins better just keep winning
Chris Jennings...ex CFLer...nice. Now don't do anything stupid Brownies, the cold is screwing up the passing game, the D is standing tall...play to kick the FG for pete's sake.
I hope the "you have to pass the ball to win in the NFL" cheerleaders are watching this game, in December, in 0 degree temps, throwing the ball is not what it is when it is Sunny and 60... Have to run the ball, even the Brownies have 6 sacks on Big Ben.
