Ouch... Tough one to swallow last night... Covering w 30 secs left i run to my car to look at some papers for work, come back up and 14 points were scored... The only games of lost recently have been bad beats like that so I feel like I'm seeing things well .... . So i seen a fellow well respected capper on a game and started typing about why I disagree w him, next thing I know I have a small book and could keep going..so instead of clogging his thread up I just copied it here.... Definitely interested in discussing if anyone is up for it
Rex.. As a diehard Cleveland sports fan just want to give you my opinion about the Browns ... Absolutely you make valid points about Tennessee Week 1... You talk about the gimmicky shit.: but that's what Mariota does ... And does it very well ... Somewhere over the last year or so there's been a misconception about the Browns defense ... And their defense is not good .. As hard as it is for me,This team is a absolute train wreck and I have serious doubts they win a single game this year ... If you're calling for a Browns win then you must think they're only going to whole Tennessee to 14 points tops ... We just let the Jets get off on us ... Will bowe play this week? Will he not ?? Even if he does he has zero on the field reps with the first team .. The running game is a serious mystery... The guy that they are saying is the future has very limited on field experience ... I would just really trend lightly here ..:I will at the game and personally I'm on Tennessee fairly large ... Don't expect the Browns the score more than 13 ... 31-13 is how I see it playing out... I cannot stress to you how bad this team really is... And that's not even talking about the coaching aspect... This guy is a turd, and regardless what jimmy H said preseason,locally there's rumors staring to fly about him being on the hot seat..they are saying he has lost the locker room....he makes the most obvious mistakes week in and week out...team commits so many dumb holds and penalties it can drive you crazy and that's all discipline starting w petite Besides DBs, And OL tenn has the advantage in every other aspect of the game...and OL means nothing when don't have a capable QB, I would def feel better about our chances(for THIS game) if josh was starting, and I'm as big of Johnny backer as there is,(I feel like sitting him last year put this team 3 years behind)b...now granted it is home opener but even that feels different this year(been to just about every one since return). The most common asked question about our team around here is about a QB who is 3 hours south and plays on Saturdays... Everyone is waiting for that... Before season started (I have hefty wager on UnDEr 6 games) I said I see 4 tops(and that's if Johnny shows up) but more likely 2-3 and have much better chance at zero then we do 6... I did say one of those 3 wins would be either ten/oak, ( other would be a SF, Rams, Kc, cards or someone like that and possibly split a division game)... However after week one I honestly believe they are worse then even I thought..its not even a matter of being less talented then other teams... It's a matter of we can't even get our less talented players on the field to find out how bad we really are lmao...Have serious question marks at QB,RB,WR, defense,coaching...something weird is going on w Haden..hasn't been himself since he got paid.... We sign bowe and he hasn't seen the field, Pryor was supposed to be this break thru WR to give us life and and didn't even give him a fair shake, Even if and when Duke is healthy I don't think he's very good, too small ..so gonna have to wait till his health is better just to find out he can't cut it..2 nights before the game last week we have our top 10 DB who we completely blew a draft pick on getting busted for road rage incidents... I mean it's going to take all the stars to align to pull a win out... Say what you want about Tennessee , but if they run that offense and no way that will make Mariota comfortable , I really really like their Wr core and think Beckham is gonna show his freakish talent...to me, the ONLY valid arguement for backing Cleveland here is more so of a fade of mariotta, on the road for the first time against a team on its season opener... This one is different because I believe Mariotta played on the biggest stages, and he has the talent and head for it...and I'll take the talent and head on the shoulders everytime.... But if you wanna use that angle I understand...but when you bring up talent and coaching .. Tenny is on another level imo...I think Mariotta is the real deal and has a chip on his shoulder cause shoulda been first pick IMO..
