Cleveland Browns (2012 season)

Yes, yes, I know all about drinking the Kool-Aid. I also know on paper, the Browns should not win a game next year. The Browns sucked last year and still won 5 games, and lost 8 more by 10 points or less. Even if you hated the draft, the Browns will be a vastly improved team by the end of next year.

Or they will have quit on their coach, they will have found out their QB is actually a 36 year old Dominican named Humberto Rodriguez and Trent Richardson will hold out until week 10....

The Browns only won four games last season. They didn't snap the ball well enough to win five.

They also started 0-10 not that long ago. Teams don't get blown out as much anymore, but that still doesn't change the W-L record at the end of the year. I think they will be better, but does that translate into being competitive? Big difference there...time will tell.

You may be right but here's where i got the info:

In the box on the right it says 4-12.

I think you may be referring to this passage:

The team had hoped to improve on its 2010 season, where it finished with a record of 5?11 and placed third in the AFC North

...where they are referring to trying to improve on their 2010 season in 2011.

Holmgren will not be around much longer...his own choice. Some close to the franchise are surprised he made it past Friday.

I'm not going to go back through the thread, but it has been previously assumed (by some posters) that Holmgren would bolt if, in fact, Lerner had made the call on Brandon Weeden. So I wouldn't be suprised.

According to many, Phil Taylor may have torn his left pectoral today.

I knew we should have drafted a DT.

Oh, wait...

This franchise is just incredible how shit happens...

 

[Bucklion]

In other news, I guess this means Hughes will get plenty of chances to prove he wasn't the worst draft pick ever in the third...time to step right up.

It could be worse. He could have torn them both.

This franchise is just incredible how [Mark May] happens...

I'm sorry, it's not funny. But, I cannot imagine anything worse than being a Browns fan. All you can do is laugh. Maybe the Cubs, but at least they have the occasional successful season. For us, it's a never-ending stream of [Mark May].
