If they're playing Delhomme simply because they don't want to admit their $7mm mistake, shame on them. Who cares if he's playing his former team.I thought Lafell's catch was called correctly. It's about time we get a break- seems like kickers always knock those through against us. And it's nice to beat a team (even if it is the Panthers) when we're not at our best.

amnesiac 888 Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 Who would you guys rather have starting this Sunday: Jake Delhomme or Derek Anderson? i'll take my chances with Delhomme over DA.also, while i thought Wallace did an OK job when he was in, i think defenses still have to respect Delhomme more, so it opens more things up for the run game.i don't think Delhomme gets benched for one INT. if (when?) he throws two, there is a strong possibility he gets benched. depends how bad they look.

Glass Joe 522 Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 I see them winning two of the remaining four. 7-9 should keep Mangini's job. I hope so, this is an actual team, with improvement that goes beyond the record. I'd like to have seen them win a couple of those they lost, but they're learning how to win.

guest 1553 0 Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 Here are my Larry King style thoughts: I see 7-8 wins as well. Buffalo lost 2 OL starters yesterday. As long as Wright stays on the bench, they can deal with Fitzpatrick. I suspect we'll see alot of amoeba defense next week since Buffalo isn't a strong running team. They should beat Cincy, and I think they will win one of the Pit/Balt games. As for the offense, Daboll is still an 'effing idiot, and needs to go the day after the season ends, if not sooner. Maybe RRyan will eat him on the bus ride to Buffalo. One thing I would love to see, that I don't think they've run at all, is some 22 personnel groupings with Hillis, Vickers, Watson, and Moore on the field at the same time. 3rd and 5 or less, and it gives them a ton of run/play-action options. I know Moore got dinged yesterday, but even before that we barely saw him on the field, and he has better hands than any of our WR's. Dude needs more minutes. I'm so tired of seeing routes that are turned 2 yards short of the sticks. Delhomme looked way worse than his stat line would indicate, but at least he didn't turn the ball over (Thank you Miami CB!) If not for Hillis, Hodges would be the team MVP. Glad they re-upped him for two more years. Haden was phenomenal. Granted, he was burned badly on the play that he ultimately intercepted, but the guy was everywhere. I freely admit that I was wrong about him at draft time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'd still be on board with a Chucky move probably...even though I don't dislike Mangini. The QB situation sorta blurs everything for me though. Something isn't right trotting Delhomme out there. Maybe my gap is too narrow in the Delhomme vs Wallace passing debate and who helps the running game more....I'm not sure. But I'd like to know what the real reasons are because Delhomme almost did it AGAIN late yesterday. Actually, he did, the CB just dropped it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cav's Indians Monsters Only topic worth discussing is Mangini, and the talkers are pushing it.IMO, the man came into a situation where there was little talent and crappy attitude on the team. Both have improved, but we're still lacking. (Who is our top wr & where would he rank in the NFLs top 50?) Who has more talent, Browns or Bengals? Why couldn't Ryan stop the Cinci running game? Honestly, who has more talent, Browns or Bills?Mangini has the team heading in the right direction. We still need a game-changing WR, help on the DL, another cb, and another OL. Let's see what sort of results he could get with good talent against an average schedule! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

In those two games, he completed 35 of 70 passes for 358 yards for one touchdown and had six interceptions. His passer rating was 34.1 against the two playoff rivals.

Fensalk 2 Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 (edited) The last mock I saw had Auburn QB Cam Newton going at #6 to the 49ers. The 49ers won today bumping them down, and the Browns now own that pick. This is a good spot for the Browns. Now they can evaluate Colt McCoy and determine if he can make all the throws. If they decide he can't, they could select a QB with a strong arm at #6. If they really believe McCoy is a franchise QB, then the Browns could trade down in the first round with someone who really wants Newton and stockpile draft picks. The #6 pick will be valuable because of Newton. Holmgren is the QB guru, and there might not be a better guy to have making the call on this. The Browns only invested a 3rd round pick in McCoy.

Although I like Colt ALOT and was pleasantly surprised at how well he did considering being a rookie, If Cam is there you HAVE to go get him. The guy is special, has great size and big arm which Colt does not. Colt could be a very good QB in the NFL but I highly doubt his ceiling is anywhere near Cams. As for Green WR's are scary to draft in the 1st. Id rather invest 1st round money into a "stud QB" like Cam then a WR. We need to sign a solid vet there. If we do not draft DE Clayborn here then I say the pick has to be Cam. Screw needs.. you go get the best football player available period. **If CLE signs Gruden as HC then its probably safe to bet Colt is here to stay as Gruden is rumored to be the main driving force to Holmgren drafting him..(per Sig B tweet today). Im not a Gruden to CLE fan fwiw.. Give me Fisher!! Edited January 3, 2011 by abe froman Quote Link to post Share on other sites
