Which games would you say the Browns will probably win? (1 Viewer)

[Despyzer]

Only select the games that you think the Browns are likely to win. In other words, if you were laying down five bucks a game and bragging rights were at stake, would you actually pick this team to win?

The poll doesn't work if no votes are tallied for a question, so I included the last options for each one. Please only select it if you feel it truly applies.

Feel free to post your win total and/or what games you've selected for them.

7-9

 

[Peak]

I went 10-6...but I'm an optimistic homer

 

[Andy Dufresne]

6-10

 

[Jon_Moore]

7-9.

8-8 if they can beat the Bengals both time

I've got them losing both games to Pitt, but if they steal one, 9-7...

Only the homer is going to pick a winning record for the Browns?

How have the Browns gotten worse since winning 10 a year ago? Was it adding Stallworth and Rucker on offense or adding Rogers and Williams on defense that brought them down?

 

[bicycle_seat_sniffer]

wow that is a tough schedule. No real gimmes outside of Baltimore

Let's see they added a guy at WR that is now playing for his fourth team in four years and was not starting late in the season with the New England Patriots. The guy that he was supposed to replace is still having knee trouble and might require microfracture.They added a career underachiever and a notoriously unmotivated player in Rogers.They traded away one of their starting CBs in Leigh Bodden and lost another potential starter in Daven Holly to an ACL injury.Add in the late season swoon by Anderson and the recipe is definitely there for a backslide.

Has everything to do with the schedule. Went from a very easy one to a very difficult one. I also don't see Anderson or Lewis duplicating their performances last year for a number of reasons.

Why do a sloppy fan poll when you got Vegas Baby?

6-10

I think the division comes down to the Steelers and Cincy in the 9-7/8-8 range.

 

[Chunky Soup]

Whatever it is, they'd win more if Quinn was in.

 

[Brownsfan07]

i sound crazy for this, but possibly 13-3?

i voted week's 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 16 as wins.

week 1 vs cowboys - 31-24 cowboys

week 2 vs steelers - 24-14 browns

week 3 at ravens - 31-10 browns

week 4 at bengals - 31-30 browns

week 5 - bye week

week 6 vs giants - 21-17 browns

week 7 at redskins - 23-20 browns

week 8 at jaguars - 20-14 jaguars

week 9 vs ravens - 21-0 browns

week 10 vs broncos - 17-6 browns

week 11 at bills - 27-17 browns

week 12 vs texans - 31-20 browns

week 13 vs colts - i maybe laughed at but 41-31 browns

week 14 at titans - 17-0 browns

week 15 at eagles - 21-18 browns

week 16 vs bengals - 31-21 browns

week 1 at steelers - 31-17 steelers

13-3 afc north champions! that's the best case. worst possible is 7-9. maybe 6-10. but they should have a deep run in postseason, but lose to patriots 31-13.

Because the Browns only won 10 games last year since they were lucky. They didn't score that many more points than they allowed, and they had a bottom five schedule. They projected like an 8-8 teams since before adding Stallworth/Rucker/Rogers/Williams.

first off, 6-10? nope!and the bungles as champs? hell no they win they win! it'll either be the steelers or the browns guaranteed!afc north standings1. browns 13-32. steelers 11-53. bengals 6-104. ravens 3-13 best!

do you have proof that the damn browns are declining?i admit, they allowed a #### load of points, but that defense sucked balls anyway!we have a new coordinator, better line, and another year under the young en's belts!lucky? that's like saying a crack head is a happy person!i hate people who say the browns were lucky to win 10 games, especially when we had a top-five offense in the nfl!we are a good team! you may be a hater, but respect the damn browns for peat's sake already!i even respect the steelers, even though i adore the browns. just keep quiet until the season begins!

 

[Lash]

that is a TUFF schedule

what you must realize is they may pack it in after starting 1-4 and go to quinn and then who knows ... could be looking at 5-11 easy

 

[Tanner9919]

3-13..

after a 1-4 start, they'll pack it in..

relying on Derrick Anderson to repeat his 2007 performance is wishful thinking..

A regression from 10-6 I can see. Going to 8-8, 7-9 is completely understandable with this schedule. But to say 3-13 is ludicrous IMO. I have them splitting with Pitt and Cincy, but let's say they lose both to Pitt and split with cincy. I think they'll beat Balt twice, not to mention Houston, Buffalo, and Tenn. Add those together and that's 6 wins there. I would think they could win a two of the toss ups between Den, Wash, and Philly. That would bring the total to 8 wins. No way they would go 3-13.

You're right -- you sound crazy. No team in this division will have 12 wins, let alone 13.I think the Browns are an up & coming team but they only beat one team with a winning record last season and that was an overtime win at home against a west coast team. The schedule gets considerably tougher this season.I think the winner of the division will probably have 9 wins, 10 tops.
