Are Browns Better Than Bengals?

 w/ Lamar Jackson starting next year in Balt,  I see the Ravens as the #1 problem in the future....& don't overlook the Browns...at some point, they have to get better..
Dalton should have 4-5 great years left...same w/ A.J.
so I like our future the next 4-5 years
we have to keep a solid O-line....that is a must....I hope we've learned that....DRAFT WISELY...

I don't think that's too far off. With the NASCAR driver looking Flacco at the helm, Baltimore is a decent post season team, but they underperform in the regular season. They've got a "good not great" kind of team around him. If they can add a piece or two and develop their next QB over the next two years — barring injuries — they should be in fine shape for a good 4-6 year run. 

Pitt, on the other hand, is holding things together with bailing wire and Bell. And if it's true he turned down $70 million, that's got to mean Bell has plans to hit the road. If Pitt doesn't make some significant moves this season, all the bad officiating and underhanded moves in the world aren't going to help them.
