Week 8 (10/30/11): Browns (3-3) @ 49ers (5-1)

What do you expect to happen in the first 15 minutes after kick off

Ginn returning it for a TD.

 

[The Oi]

Niners are pretty unlikely to blow them out given that the Browns d has been pretty damn good thus far.

The problem is going to be- that like every year since the return- the offense will be so inefficient, that the defense will spend 40 minutes of the game on the field and tire themselves out enough to give up points late.

It'll only take 15 minutes to get our reality check. That was my point, mate.

Doesn't take longer than 15 minutes to allow a special teams TD, conduct a horrendous foreshadowing 3 and out, or an uncountable amount of other terrible things to happen to us.

Mo Mass ruled out, Hillis is questionable.

 

[hugerobot]

Cribbs to start in place of Mo Mass.

Play them even in special teams and turnovers, and we'll win. Thats a big if.

We don't really turn the ball over much, and in order to beat them, we have to win the battle of turnovers. Not just play even, but I agree on Special Teams because we have been abysmal in that aspect this year.

Seriously though, we could be 4-2, 5-1 right now if we wouldn't have had all these mental breakdowns happening.

9ers thrive on short fields. Dont give them any and we'll win.

We could also very easily only have 1 win. Colt put together the drive of his life against Miami to win the game, and a blown call cost the Seahawks a touchdown, which basically would have ended that game..

 

[Surge]

Brown win 14- 13.

Greg Little scores, and Cribbs returns a punt/kick late to win it...

 

[tmackin07]

49ers have the last ranked passing offense in the NFL right now and are going up against (statistically) the best passing defense in the league right now. Gore will be forced to pound it up the middle and I like our D-Line and Dqwell to keep it reasonable. Gore may get well over 100 yards today but this game will not be a blowout. If only we could score...

 

[Chris]

Our team is trash as it is, when we have to sit guys like Mohammed Massaquoi and Peyton Hillis it just makes them even worse. How can anyone expect to win? Seriously.

OT (Since there was no game thread)- Your boy in your avatar looked CONFIDENT last night... I think things could be dangerous for the BIG if he keeps it up...

That's pretty much Brown's football in a nutshell.

Have a feeling browns will pull a upset 23-20
