I think Mega homers like you are more comical..

More comical than declaring the season lost after 2 losses? Doubtful

Or the game over in the 1st QTR? 

0 - 3 would have lumped the stats against us... fortunately we won.. hopefully 2-2 puts us up in better contention. The first 2 losses will bite us in the end though.. I just feel it.

I agree. Somehow, we'll just have to make the Super Bowl as a 2nd seed in the AFC.

Tony's simply the gift that keeps on giving. Every board has one.

I mean, they did it as the 4th seed.. I could see then going on a run right now.. Need like 8 straight wins

When did I say that ever?

I said don't right off the Browns, have a solid backup with Watson in the wings with a great running game

The mean fan in me secretly hopes someone like Reader takes Watson's legs home with him to hang on his trophy wall on the very first snap of the game. 
Reader would be a national sensation in one play..

Part of me hopes, they're playing REALLY well with Brisset at QB so that it becomes even more noticeable when Watson plays and plays poorly due to not playing for almost 2 years. I want the Browns to really regret all that they gave up for Watson. 

I am with you Phil all the way...

The Browns are a very good roster though. The Ravens are also good. I just think that Watson is a good QB when he isn't
a weirdo cummin' on gals massaging him. Been awhile him actually playing football. Hope we demolish them this year.

But we will need DJ Reader when we play them and he might be out at least one of our games maybe.

Bring in Linval Joseph is my thought right now. The Briowns OL is good and their RB's are the best in the Division IMO.

Micth just isn't the answer, he's not taking many shots down the field which allows opposing defenses to "cheat" up into the box to pretty much stop Najee Harris from getting any big yards.

I mean, I'm glad and I really hope Pickett is very Mitch-like when he makes his Steelers debut.

Doubt Pickett is as bad as Mitch the Bitchscuit honestly...

Too bad, we will have a fight as usual with Pitt, but we will split pretty damn sure. Vengeance is due.

The Browns game just got extremely more difficult with the loss of Reader
