Browns Are For Real

I would first like to thank Jeremy Hill for his inspirational message to the Cleveland Browns.  The gist of what he said was that the Browns weren't that good.

Hill was understandably frustrated, and his comments were almost certainly aimed at his own quarterback.  When he said "They just sat in coverage all day", he meant that Dalton either didn't throw the ball, or missed his target.

But Hill can't say that.  But he had to say something, so he tried to use code-talk. 

 Unfortunately for Hill, when his team plays the Browns again, it will be in Cleveland, and they'll probably have Josh Gordon, Jordan Cameron, and Hawk.

Hill is a rookie, and apparently not the sharpest knife in the drawer.  All recievers think they're open on every play, and they tend to expect exactly perfect passes.  In reality, Skrine and Gilbert ate his lunch.

AJ Green has the brains to admit when Joe Haden beats him.

As I said, the Bengals have a Superbowl roster, with no holes in it.  It might look to Hill as if the Browns were outgunned talent-wise.

Well, you can't compare the Browns' wide recievers to their opposite numbers on the Bengals.

But the reality is that the Browns' backfield is better.  The tight ends (without Gordon) are a wash.  The Browns' offensive line is as good or better, even without AMack.  I'm sure that Jeremy on truth serum would admit that Hoyer is better than Dalton, especially when it counts the most.

Commentators and analysts are already talking about the Bengals offense looking listless, but the fact is that it was the Browns' defense finally, at long last, putting it together and playing up to it's talent.

Gilbert, Kirksey, Robert Nelson and others are rookies.  Mike Pettine brought a new defensive system with him.  Hell, look at the depth chart and you'll see that it's described as a 4-3!

They're still getting better!  They'll be better when Jeremy Hill plays them again!  And he just insulted them!

Even if this delusional kid thinks his offense will score more points, the Browns' offense including Hoyer are likewise improving game-by-game, and next time they'll have Josh Gordon and Jordan Cameron to deal with.

What about the run?  The Bengals couldn't stop it!  Nick McDonald is settling in at center.  I saw eight or or more in the box, but this time it didn't work!  Our guys overpowered their guys.

The offensive line especially will be better next time, as McDonald and the other guys become used to eachother.  

When the Bengals come to Cleveland, Jeremy, they'll be facing a team with more talent than yours has, including at wide reciever.

AJ Green wants to be like Josh Gordon when he grows up, you hear that?  Cameron is as good as any tight end in the NFL.  All three of the Browns' running backs are better than your starter.

Thanks, kid.  You have guaranteed that they'll be ready.  You might get your wish, too: Dalton will be lucky if he can stay on the field.

I hope Jeremy Hill grows up soon, and can't hold his emotional comments against him.

But the Browns will.

Late note: Oh yeah!  Hill is a running back!  Oops
