    I'm old enough to remember how those "why they won't win it." were written in the past. What a change.

    Good to let them thaw out. Then send them back to cool off after their loss.

    Keeping Flacco and Amari contained.

    1. Sustaining offensive drives. Solution - Offense

    2. Pressure by the front 4. Solution - Anderson and Greenard play and play well.

    3. Better tackling by Contain DBs. - Personel availability. Scheme flexibility.

    4. Special Teams must maximize Field position.

    Flacco plays like a 37 year old QB.

    I'm tired of everyone predicting scores like bookies instead of fans. Texans win by 3 scores.

    We're still pushing the limits up the hill. It's no time to let them roll back down the hill.

    And they're the worst I ever dealt with as a season ticket holder; granted that was way back in 2002 - 2006. Just a bunch of ignorant, drunken a$$holes. Nothing even remotely pleasant about them. The Browns, as an organization, should be embarrassed by them.

    I'm getting a luckier 2015 vibe.

    All teams have both good and bad fans. But some seem dominated by the bad while others are dominated by the good.

    We're winning this game. I think we hit Flacco enough to force errant throws, and I think we move the ball enough score enough to win. A little bit like the Colts formula.

    Me too, very 2015 Astros. We knew going into the season they were on an upward trajectory, but just like in 2015 we did not expect them to make the playoffs this quickly. They are ahead of the projections, and good enough to win it all so long as some breaks go their way, but still young enough to lose a game with some mistakes. Hoping for the former.

    Browns defense at home: 3.69 yards per Down
    Browns defense on the road: 5.54 yards per Down
    Browns road rank stretched to a full season: 28th in the league

    Browns home scoring defense: 13.9 ppg
    Browns away scoring defense: 29 ppg
    Browns road rank stretched to a full season: 29th in the league

    We need to stop pretending that the 85 Bears/ 2000 Ravens are coming to NRG to face CJ Stroud.

    While there are players on IR, this appears to be the healthiest the Texans have been going into a dame.
