Sad part about that team is that they have a few good players. Josh Cribbs, is by far the best player on that team, and the sad part is that it's wasting talent. I do find it kind of funny when your best player is the qb,rb,wr,pr,kr....
Well watching the Lions all these years has broken my heart more times than I can say.

They can play crappier than the worst team and they can play pretty decent on occasion. Things is with the Lions nothing really matters expect the fourth quarter. Pretty consistently they blow it in the last two minutes.

Last year was a complete joke and I was very very happy when they fired Millen. But nobody expects a quick turn around. Much like the city itself, Detroit needs more help than people are willing to admit.

Hell when we played Pittsburgh there were more Steelers fans in the stadium than our own.

Just read the post above between me and Scatter. It came down to the last two minutes of the game and I bet I'd win the point spread with another interception. Damn if it didn't happen exactly that way. Our QB threw five that day.

I always bet against the lions... and more often than not I'm right

My team has been in the dumps before. Only a matter of time before it improves. This is the first time my team has been 8-1 since 1998. That year they went 15-1 and blew it in the nfc championship game.

Hey Saints guys, They need to pick up their game and stop making mistakes. They played the first 5 really good and the next 4 with alot of turn overs. That will cost them against a better team. I look for Brees and Colston to play well this week against the Bucs. I am worried about our depleted defense! Any thoughts on this??

I went and pulled the records. Average since 2000 (not including current year) Browns = .361 Detroit = .278

The last time we won 15 games = never


I have no hope

I would'nt compare that, there are entirely too many band wagon Steeler fans since they've been winning. Been a Browns fan for YEARS and there were never as many Steeler fans a few years ago as now. On another note, the Pittsburgh program has alot of class in that they have had only 4, possibly 5 coaches total since the team began. The Rooney family are class all the way and allow the organization to run with good people in place.

The Browns Offensive Coordinator should have been dumped weeks ago. They are by far the most boring team to watch. I have no idea why Daboli thinks the short routes will get any gains. As far as talent, Cribbs is by far the stand out guy and again the OC seems to have little idea how to use his talent best, so he just tries everything. Funny thing is Cribbs responds to all.

DA is done, I hope. His days are over, he's proven too many times he is a bust. Quinn needs reps. Was he worth the draft pick spot ... hard to say, leaning much more toward NO, but he doesn't have ANY aurrounding cast to help out. Last night he spent more time watching his back than the rest of the field because the Offensive line is cheese.

Detroit can at least get you into a 2 minute game watch situation. Cleveland games these days are after the 2nd quarter on a good day. Waiting for better days. At least I have my Camaro to make me forget it's football season.

That's pretty sad lol. My Vikings went through a stretch where they had like 3 or 4 really bad years within the last 8 years...and then we had like a 8-8,9-7,10-6 and now 8-1 record.

Who'd have thought Favre would be who is this year ??
Good chance taken by the Vikes, but you have to admit, every Viking fan was nervous when Favre was chosen.

What would punting the ball have accomplished..... making Manning have to drive an additional 40 yds??? big deal, did you guys see the two previous drives??? the d was worn out, the Colts had plenty of time & time outs, 40 more yds would not have made the difference, it was the right call, a bad spot and oh well!! End of story!!
