Big C Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 Holy crap you are right. CBS: All 8 pick the Browns straight up and 6 out of 8 with the 4.5 spread. ESPN 11 to 1 Browns Geesh, no love indeed! I'm kind of shocked about this. I get that no one picks us to beat the Pats or Ravens, but the Browns? I mean, slight advantage maybe, and I suppose they could expect a close match, but still. That's crazy to me.
Wazzu Bill Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 I'm kind of shocked about this. I get that no one picks us to beat the Pats or Ravens, but the Browns? I mean, slight advantage maybe, and I suppose they could expect a close match, but still. That's crazy to me. I think people are looking at just how poorly Manuel handled his first road game against the Jets, and are thinking that the Browns home advantage is enough to clinch the game. And honestly until Manuel proves otherwise the lines are probably right. That being said, Bills had a huge upset vs the Ravens and that's enough to make me an optimist about this game!
Wattdogg35 Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 The biggest key is reducing penalties. I can't tell you how many big plays we've had called back. It's to the point where I don't celebrate a big play until 5 seconds after it happens. Yea it's pretty pathetic...I don't celebrate a TD until after the extra point. but like always many of calls are very questionable, but hoping we get a few "breaks" tonight, and by "breaks" I mean the correct call. BTW, 100% conclusive evidence to overturn a call, unlike the 4 last week, would be nice.
rockpile Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 I have to work the help desk until midnight, but they will have the game on flat screen wall mount tv's all around the call center! No sound but at least the occasional glance. *-)
5 Wide Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 Wingo is still on the practice squad, has not been elevated to the roster. Likely a sign CJ is going to play tonight. Byrd and McKelvin working out for trainers before the game http://instagram.com/p/fBNP-sw2Ma/#
bisonbrigade Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 Browns getting all the love so far... Browns get the love so far..., Bills get the love after the game.

Sounds like CJ is a go: @buffalobills Doug Marrone on @CJSPILLER: "I think we feel good, think he'll be out there." (h/t @StaceyDales @nflnetwork) pic.twitter.com/UzyrqNEl3N
Wazzu Bill Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 PER BLEACHER REPORT: CJ Spiller will play vs. Browns I would provide a link but the update is on my phone and this is not now if only we could get McKelvin out there we will be rolling
sodbuster Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 Holy crap you are right. CBS: All 8 pick the Browns straight up and 6 out of 8 with the 4.5 spread. ESPN 11 to 1 Browns Geesh, no love indeed! Good. I don't want people to pick Buffalo.
stevestojan Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 Am I the only one not believing this bull **** hype that the browns are very good? The line on the raven game was 3.5. This one is 4.5. Given that home field gives you 3 points, that means on neutral ground, we would have been a 6.5 point dog to the ravens and a 1.5 point to the effing BROWNS? I'm sure I'll regret this flash of optimism, but WTF. By the way, to my Pats fan co worker who schedule a meeting for 7am tomorrow with our boss, I will get you back for this. As God as my witness.
YoloinOhio Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 (edited) As some of you know, I live in Ohio (Cbus). I had to drive to and from Dayton today for work. I listened to a combination of national and local sports radio throughout the day. Here is what I learned: 1. We are playing the 1985 Bears defense tonight. Possibly better. 2. They are QBd by a younger version of Tom Brady. 3. No one knows any player on the Bills except for EJ 4. The Browns worked out EJ two days before the draft and this game will show them how he compares to their savior, Brian Hoyer. 5. The Browns now have a great chance to win the division (just 2 weeks ago they were waving the white towel on 2013, although they had the 1985 Bears D at that time as well) 6. Josh Gordon is a turd who put on his Instagram that he is hosting a rager tonight after the game in Cleveland. i just hope Willis approves of the location, and women invited. 7. Ray Horton is such a good D coordinator, he will most certainly be a head coach next year somewhere. 8. Not one word about the Bills as a team or any of their games or players, or coaches. Only that their secondary and running backs and banged up, which means the Browns will definitely win. Because they have the 1985 Bears defense. I am so FREAKING tired of hearing about Brian Hoyer! And all the Browns fans who are picking their team to win! Without hesitation! I don't think I have ever, in all my years as a Bills fan, picked them to win without hesitation. I know they can win or lose to anyone. I would be sad but not shocked if they lost tonight. But the last time I can remember anyone picking the Bills to win was at the Jets. So, I am glad they don't today. Chris Brown @ChrisBrownBills 1m Spiller, McKelvin active for tonight. Byrd inactive. Edited October 3, 2013 by YoloInTheBlo
Big Turk Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 When do teammates start "anonymously" calling him out on the carpet, especially with Fred Jackson playing with an MCL sprain
K D Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 Any news on McKelvin? And I heard that out of respect the Browns have already thrown an interception to Kiko before the game has even started
Big Turk Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 Any news on McKelvin? And I heard that out of respect the Browns have already thrown an interception to Kiko before the game has even started Mckelvin active, said was showing good explosion in drills
