I just read Scott Ramage's blog...and I agree with him.
The Browns have their backs against the wall, so why can't they come out fighting? Peyton Manning rarely looks past opponents, but maybe the rest of the team will.
Needless to say, Browns fans are in a tough position. Are you hoping that the Browns play competitively? ...especially since you're a fan...paying to go to games, paying for the Directv's NFL ticket, buying Browns merchandise, and cheering for them every year. Or, do you hope that they lose the last 5 games? Many fans believe that they could lose 4 out of the last 5 games, which are against the Colts, Titans, Monday night at the Eagles, Bengals, and at the Steelers. Are some of you hoping for a top 10 draft pick? Well, it just might happen. And if it does, what do you fix first? CBs, LBs, or take the best available pass rusher? I would leave the offense alone because we have talent on that side. Then again, depending on your POV, maybe you want to fix the offense first. ...maybe you want to fix the coaching first. Then again, what would be your opinion if the Browns won the rest of their games with DA at QB? What a mess this could create.
Speaking of the coaching staff, I just read a rumor. Could Marty come back? Will Cowher be interested? I'm not sure if either of these guys would be interested. Besides, do you want Marty back? Once again, it depends on your perspective of things. Many people knock Marty because he has not won the big game, but I'm not complaining. We haven't even made the playoffs under the RC era. Lerner said that he would address the issue after the season.
Well, it's time to set the FF lineup. Good luck Brownies!

Wow, someone agreed with me?
Personally I want them to win out. I don't care about the draft until the draft rolls around and, besides, history has shown that high draft picks don't always pan out, just like... well, every other pick in every other round of the draft.
And I'm a bit too young to remember all of what Marty did as a coach, but my thoughts are thus: If you don't let him keep playing the big gam, he's never going to win it.
