NBA OFF TOPIC THREAD

Speaking of paper tigers, how 'bout them Chargers...?

But hey, they always look good on paper...

Can’t believe they haven’t fired that idiot coach.

Can’t believe they haven’t fired that idiot coach.

It’s coming, gotta be, maybe not mid-season but definitely after seasons end unless they have something miraculous happen

Football is a team sport and one player isn't the difference between good and bad teams if it's not someone like Mahomes

Just sit down my guy. The impact of no Andrews is felt on the play of the most important position in sports.

Record has little to do with being a contender. It’s about how a team matches up with the best teams. The Browns have a plus defense but they don’t have the offense to make them a true contender. This is why you’re delusional.

RBs have little value in the NFL. They’ve gotten similar product in out of his replacements. You are making way too much of this injury because it’s a ready made excuse and that’s the corner stone of your argument, playing shoulda coulda woulda. It’s the NFL. My team won with a back up QB when the starter was on a pace to win MVP of the league. All you have is excuses to fuel your delusion.

All you’ve established here is that instead of God awful the Browns are average and mediocre.

A Pro Tip: when trying to argue that your team is a contender don’t cite the mediocrity of 31-27.

We are talking with Watson and Chubb and since we keep winning for now without them stands to reason might be better with.

7-3 with the tougher part of the schedule done is average and mediocre?

A pro tip - the 6-3 and now 7-3 is what matters as far as being a current contender.

Keep being wrong, makes no difference to me

it hurts yes, but I’m not mailing it in. What we are going to see is if Jackson can actually learn to throw to wide receivers. Let’s give it a couple weeks.

 

[dtgold88]

And you can have the last word. The Browns are the epitome of irrelevant. College football, NFL football, etc… is too big this time of year for this thread to get mucked up with talk about an irrelevant team.

you lack self control so I suspect you will reply to this yet again. The team with arguably the largest fan base is irrelevant?

we can talk CFB if you want, too.....maybe you can tell me more about some fake wins your irrelevant team has had.

 

[dtgold88]

SEC!! SEC!!

My favorite part of this is the Niners fan saying it’s a team game and one guy doesn’t make a difference after the whole Niners roster cried like bitches making excuses because Purdy got hurt in the NFC Championship game.

Do what you want but Lamar already has struggled in the playoffs throughout his career. I don’t see him changing that narrative without his security blanket. His passing metrics plummet when Andrews isn’t available.

Part of what you do when you are chastised for being wrong is to deflect to irrelevancies. What does the Niners roster whining have to do with the argument?

 

[dtgold88]

Ya gotta love sports fans.....in the Browns forums I'm still a ton who are not happy unless ripping the coach. Even after another W.

7-3 with a backup QB in half the games in the toughest division (and having played the tougher part of the schedule). Oh...and also 4 GW drives in which he's the playcaller. 3 with the backup QB.

But, sure, he cannot call plays and should go.

 

[dtgold88]

someon give me a reason why Myles Garrett should not be a legit MVP candidate.

Browns are 7-3 in the leagues hardest division starting a PJ Walker for multiple games, DTR multiple games, and Watson who was healthy for like 2 games and beat up in the rest.

The defense of the Browns is amazing.

and 3 GW drives with backup QBs. Browns are winning close games? Go figure.

Are you ok? Your game has been weak lately.

I didn’t want to give the guy a contract for that very reason. Losing one guy is not a deal breaker though. We will see if he can use receivers properly, just something he needs to learn.

You're already going to this? Surrender accepted.

3-4

Certainly possible.....but guessing if each of those games was coming up next as the teams sit right now the Browns would be favored in 4-5 minimum.

 

[fightinfunbags]

Andrews dictates coverages for him and makes it easier for him to diagnose the defense. Without him on the field, there’s no one that the defense has to double regularly. It’s now become much easier to disguise looks in coverage.

 

[dtgold88]

Regardless of that…Garrett isn’t winning NFL MVP. Defensive players don’t win that award. Defensive player of the year? He’s got a great argument and may even be the favorite. Not good enough for Wiggy though. Typical of him.

Because no QB has stood out as a clear cut winner I could at least see a non QB winning it this year....agree would be shocked if it's Myles.

 

[fightinfunbags]

Surrender accepted.

Yep. You went to Old Faithful super early. It’s ok. There are a lot of people who don’t understand the game of football. Whenever you have questions just let me know. That’s how my wife learned the game.
