Maybe. I kind of enjoy the aspect where nobody cared about Cleveland the entire offseason, despite the fact that they easily have a top 3-4 roster in the league in terms of talent.

Now they are 8-5, great chance to make the playoffs, with a ton of injuries. Including going 4-4 without their starting QB... something I would bet obscene amounts of $ the Ravens couldn't do, nor could most teams in the league.
i think all afc north fans knew clev was a good team. Honestly, i think everyone would some football knowledge knew browns were good team. They would be a SB team if watson played like he did with Hou. We probably wouldnt go 4-4 with huntley but def could with flacco
 
We could easily drop 2 of those games.

Fins aren't sweet and if Hill is healthy he could blow the game open.

49ers are tough

Steelers always play us tough as we struggle against them

Jags, you don't know what the fuck is showing up on sunday
Easily drop which 2?
Look at everyone else’s schedule, that’s why. Although Miami is probably harder
I did.
Seeing as we're also on their schedule. I guess we are chopped liver lol. I dont buy into that schedule crap. Game by game.
That's my point! They all have to play the 10-3 Ravens.
it is any given sunday, without a doubt, but the 'talking heads' are going by the schedule and every one of those teams is a playoff team...outside of the Steelers (even though they are currently a WC if the season ended today).
I get that the Jaguars, Dolphins, 49ers, and the Wild Card Steelers are playoff squads but the Jaguars, Dolphins, and Steelers just came off of losses that need to be taken into consideration.
I think they're just going by record. All of those opponents have winning records, all are playoff teams if the season ended today and 3 are outright division leaders.
True.

The issue with Cleveland is yes if not a ravens fan it’d be sick to see them win the Super Bowl. Hell I’d smile if flacco held the trophy again as long as it’s not Pitt or cincy. But the browns won’t win the Super Bowl, they will just knock off one elite team then flail lol
 
Wonder if the Chargers will have a firesale in the offseason and start a new. Projected to be $42M over the cap next year... so who's going to be a Raven next year coming from the Chargers?
 
There is a #2 coming out with denzel in it

I can't stand the fact that Ridley Scott wants to make a sequel to this. Gladiator is an all-time great movie and the story should just be left alone. I'm happy for Denzel if he's going to have a major role in the sequel, but I'm not sure if even Denzel will be able to save the movie. Sequels to classic movies almost never work out and are usually just a cash grab

I agree! They shouldve left this alone. They better off doing a prequel that would get the young kids attention. The time period where those movies gave you that all time great feeling are long gone. Although, it would be nice for them to finally make a movie where we watch because of the actors and directors. Love avengers type movies but i dnt watch cause the roles, always the actually movie it self
 
Do they ever have odds for a coach getting fired on sportsbooks? Everyone and their mama knew he was gonna get fired weeks ago lol

You sure its an actual sequel or just something that can stand alone and is a sequel in name?

This is probably a dumb question considering they're making another Beverly Hills Cop. Vultures

The biggest reason I find, and this is often true of video games as well, is that the writers are often too afraid to tell an actual story and instead want to pay “respect” to the original.
