I don't think 7 wins gets in unfortunately.I definitely noticed the issues with Stefanski after game 1. And of course was blasted and laughed at on the forum when I said the Browns looked like a team that wasn’t top tier. Well who’s laughing now?
We have a mediocre QB. Our HC is good until the situations become tight and high leverage. Our defense is wildly inconsistent. The secondary still is not good. Our punter sucks ass. Pass rush disappears when it is needed most.
This team is lucky to make the playoffs in the AFC. As I said after week 1, it may take 11 wins to get in. I have us around 10-7, first round exit this year if we get in. Good that they are competitive but please stop with your SB dreams. Not with this team.
I’m sorry, but the QB is not the BIGGEST problem. It’s not. Could it be *a* problem? Sure.Between secondary communication, running backs being hurt and Baker just not being good enough, I think we are doomed to be the Atlanta Hawks of the NFL for a few years.
The biggest problem is I don't see how you fix the QB problem. There is no QB that's a meaningful upgrade for me. (Save your Watson talk, I don't want to cheer for a serial sexual abuser.)

But it’s not the biggest problem, and Baker IS a QB you can win with.
The biggest problem is easily the defense. There is not a single QB in the league that could have won today with what our defense ended up doing and the numerous injuries on offense.
