I don't think anyone here is saying the Browns have done a better job over the last 12 years than the Bengals. In fact, I've never seen a single person say that.
I don't want to speak for anyone else, but I'm pretty sure most people are speaking about either current, or recent moves, to come to the conclusion that they would rather have the Browns front office than the Bengals. So when you take that into account, it's an entirely different argument.
And you know the Browns front office has undergone a bunches of changes, right? Not every team has the same front office in place forever.
The Browns current GM is Andrew Berry, who has produced a 7-3 team. The previous GM was John Dorsey. That front office went 13-18-1.
So maybe think about that next time. Maybe when someone says they wish we made moves like the Browns front office, they're speaking to moves made by Berry and Dorsey, and not the regime of 10 years ago. Or I guess you could just assume the worst, or outright change the argument, so can you paint others as crybabies. It's up to you.
The sad reality is...over the past 3 seasons, the damn Browns have won twice as many games as the Bengals.
