There's a case to be made that the Browns could have and probably should have won the AFC North. They will be a problem next year and I was thinking this before the Hunt signing. That back field is an OL's dream.

You mean so I have less incentive to visit than I already do?
Not so sure about that. Not a fan of Freddie Kitchens as a head coach

This Kareem Hunt signing by the Browns scares the crap out of me. Between Hunt, Mixon, etc. we better sign Pierce to a long term deal now and hope that Henry comes back better than ever. We need to beef up our D-line even more and we absolutely need to sign Mosley to a long term deal. Otherwise we'll get carved up by our division opponents and the Browns are looking downright dangerous.
AMEN!!
It’s a one year prove it deal and may not be there following 2019, which won’t even be a full season due to the looming suspension. Currently he’s on Goodell’s exempt list.
Even if he never plays in nfl again, browns are looking really good. Soon as they drafted baker they instantly became a better football team. Many here didnt even wanna give them credit at first
They certainly have talent and Kitcher was a good OC for them the second half of the season. What is yet to be seen is if he can be a good head coach and I have my doubts.
I knew that had their guy in baker due to all the film I watched of him. He and Rosen were my top two. Btw, LJ was number 3

Shidddd not me. I said before the draft that I hope like hell they take darnold over Baker because baker would be the biggest possible thorn in our side for the next decade.
I genuinely think the ravens/browns of the early 2020s could end up just a notch below the ravens/Steelers rivalry of the late 2000s/early teens
Ravens Steelers goes a long way back. It’s going to take a long time to get close to it.
if it really does go the way we hope then it'd be a crazy compelling matchup twice a year - 2 guys drafted in the 1st round of the same draft jousting year after year at least twice a year - the steelers ravens rivalry is and always will be something special but it never had that kind of juice at qb...
there was always a little something in the falcons ravens games despite literally no animosity between the fanbases mostly because of flacco vs ryan being drafted together
baker and lamar going 1 and 32 of the same draft and being in the same division is crazy cool storyline material if they both pan out long term
what's even crazier is that the same draft might also give us another division rivalry at qb - the jets and bills with darnold and allen at 3 and 7 get to go head to head twice a year as well

I always wanted a little more for us to beat the falcons because of that... I actually wanted the falcons to beat the niners in that nfc championship, because I thought flacco vs Ryan was a way better matchup/story/decider than the harbowl

... and I’ll believe the Steelers will be out of the mix when I see it. They have a knack of staying relevant.
