If they do it I think you will regret it in 4 yrs.

I am not sure they will be up far enough to have this opportunity.

http://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/21826238/baltimore-orioles-closer-zach-britton-ruptures-achilles-least-six-months All these guys who are coming to the end of their contracts at the end of 2018 should have been traded a yr ago.

Roman should be the OC.

I think there is a reason for that. Look at who they played. Not good defenses.

They can compete with Jax?

Totally agree there is no great teams this yr. The way I see it there are 5 very good teams (NE, Pit, Jax, LAR, and Min). There are 4 good teams in Philly (they were really good before Wentz blew out his knee) Atl, Car, and NO. Then there are a ton of mediocre teams (bmore, But, Mia, Ten, KC, LAC, Oak, Dal, Was, Set, GB, Sea, and Zona). All the rest are total losers. I only see the top 5 as SB capable with maybe NO as an outside shot. The Saints have a solid D finally. They are #11 this yr. You just don't walk over them anymore. And with that running game they can be scary. Pats do run the ball. Lewis has been a solid runner for weeks. Again they D since they have so many injuries is designed to slow a team down allowing Brady to light up the other team. It is sort of like the way Indy was with Manning.

Shazier. That D has not bounced back since he went down. Would Gronk just walk down the field with him out there? When your team signal caller goes down it takes weeks to work that out if it can be worked out. Them putting up 38 I duo not see as that impressive with that caveat. Put up 38 against Cle. Just put up 30.

If a OC didn't matter then why would Bill Walsh invent the WCO. Keep running the wing t or wishbone. When Harbs hires the OC there is no success. When an OC if dumped on him the offense is successful.

True. I just don't see it as a signature win. Signature wins show what you are capable of doing against upper talent.

The Raiders have turned out to be crap. The Lions don't have any defense anymore. They will not make the PO. Against most PO teams they were beaten like drums.

I really agree with him. They do play like Ravens.

Can someone tell me where the signature win is?

Oh no I don't think he is alone. He is just the first.

But I might watch CFU to see how well they can hang with the big boys.

Like always I will just watch the PO/national championship.

Preston for many yrs has talked about how players try harder after a coaching termination bc they fear for their jobs. This is in that realm. They still really do suck. The Ravens just can't bring their D game and expect the Browns to roll over for them.

:thumbup: You just had the GM fired and the new guy said that the players suck. They can see the writing on the wall and need to play for their future.

I could easily see it.

The Browns don't have multiple receivers who can hurt them so not as dangerous. That said Harbs apparently said that helping Carr was not part of the game plan. Pop Warner coaches grasp that depending on circumstances adjustments are needed.

Carr is ok. He has really helped to stabilize the CBs. He just needs help sometimes.

Carr was more apt to be attacked with Jimmy going down. That really hurt the DBs. But I think the safeties are weak. Jefferson is really being exposed now.
