    IDK exact postions or numbers, but as many teams they have/had a host of injuries. I agree next man up is true, but that man has to be developed and coached well, the coaches and OC/DC need to make necessary adjustments to compensate for weaknesses that replacement may have. Stats do not tell the whole story, Browns are 8th in PPG in the league at 23.9, the last 3 games were 31 ppg...that's with an old guy off a couch, no Omari Cooper for one or more of those games, a 5th round 3rd string RB who averaged 5 ypc last game alone. Next man up, they have had to go deeper than than and still win. Lest this sound like a Brown's orgasm post i still hate the franchise, but damn I give credit when due, that HC has dome an amazing job.

    have no idea if this streak will continue, but as you said he has had some of these streaks that have lead to good things for his team, he also has had bad moments, injury or just lapse, but right now he has the hot hand for sure.

    correct - joe has blown chunks for years.

    he is in a great fit right now with the #1 D in the league. Check it down to his TE / RB's, find a WR here and there, and hand the ball off. He has alot of INT's, that will doom him in post season. Protect the football, DEFENSE travels for the playoffs. Would not want to see them in JAN!!!!

    Score 17-20 each week and they can win

    I am not so sure I'd say they did anything based on what somebody thought months ago, either way. These know it all's are wrong as much as they are right. Aren't these genius's the ones who favored us over both 2 win teams we lost to? JMO>

    Honestly I felt (and posted) this team could be a 6 win or 11 or 12 wins. there is something about ugly wins you can't calculate, sometimes fate gets you in the win column and by that total the team seems better than they are, we saw this a couple of years ago when we went 11-0 then the wheels fell off. A couple of years before we won somewhere around 8-10 games 3 pts or less, but went out in the first round. Close games are not unusual, but the teams well rounded and solid seem to win AND be competitive in all phases...we are and were not, thus we are where we are.

    It's good to see the AFC North teams that were built to beat the Steelers succeeding.

    "Green Font" I think.

    we actually wanted the browns to lose and the raven to win in week 17 so balt would be more likely to rest its starters against us in week 18

    It was not your point from the start...And again it was from 11 years and 9 years ago since the last time Flacco make the playoffs as starter,so like I said,his success with the Browns are really unexpected since the last good year of Flacco was in 2014,9 years ago

    I don't give a dang when He did it. Going 4-0 in the playoffs with 11 tds, and 0 ints, and then Winning the SB after that with 3tds, and 0 ints is freaking impressive. That's 14 tds, and no turnovers in 5 of the most important games of a season. If You don't think Baltimore fans are worried about seeing them ....Your crazy. They are sweating it.

    Again I know he was great in 2012 and yes maybe the ravens are worried now but before the browns sign Flacco,no way it was expected...This is my point.Otherwise the steelers should sign Terry Bradshaw now because of what he did in 1978 and other years!

    For people paying attention. The Jets looked at their best on offense when He was playing. He had 14 tds, and 6 ints with the Jets on a limited amount of games. That wasn't 12 years ago...This is what happens when You spend draft capital on Qbs, and must play them.... it's not just here.

    That's a bizarre happening in the Standings, but own the tie breaker to keep out of last place.
    Gives me a headache.
