7 Reasons We Lose Ugly in Cleveland

[Coogiguy03]

These are legit concerns

People that think this is some easy game have no clue

The 49ers lost at Cle last season - with PJ Walker starting for the browns

They think every game we play is going to be easy like we're this super dominant team!! We're a team with a lot of good names, we love to kick field goals and not score touchdowns, defense plays good at times, other times you can't tell they're on the field

A big majority of this board wants the Cowboys to win. Pointing out the challenges doesn’t equate “wanting the Cowboys to lose.”

Nah. People like OP want to be right.

 

[Risen Star]

Playing a tough game with a loss is no embarrassment.

Living in Philly and playing silly games from mom's basement most certainly is. Get lost, little fella.

We will get exposed and dominated.

Bathe in it.

 

[Risen Star]

I applaud that attitude...as well as the crafted articulation.

"****** nonsense"..."beating up tomato cans"...damn. I'll have to find some reason to beat up on your posts later, but I sure can't at the moment.

Nobody cares what you applaud. You're irrelevant.

This thread is ugly

I almost participated in the ugly! PHEW!

 

[Coogiguy03]

The how is how we do it.

We beat the Browns, Saints, Ravens. Then lay a tire against the Giants, Steelers, Lions and 49ers

exactly, but some of these teams are expected like the 49ers maybe the lions, i'm really talking about the Arizona type teams that aren't doing well and we get beat by them lol

I'm sure Coop isn't happy about this ......in fact, he too wants a new deal

 

[ElGatoGrande]

I'm just happy we start off against some legitimate competition. No more ****** nonsense, beating up on tomato cans. This game should show us who we are, for better or worse.

This is exactly the physical matchup we need to gauge this team. If they can hold their own here they might be on the right track.

we love to kick field goals and not score touchdowns

14 rushing plus 36 passing equals 57 touchdowns last year.

Aubrey kicked 36 FG's last year.

57 TD's > 36 FG's

 

[big dog cowboy]

The Browns offered a 2nd and a 3rd and Cooper for Aiyuk???

Jeebus.

How many touchdowns could we have added to that 57??? I'm just saying let's finish drives with 7 points, YES FG's win you games too. Let's fix the red zone struggles

He got one. Not years, but a lot of cash.

Browns will come out jacked. Home opener against Americas team. They will play like its their Super Bowl. Shame on us if we don't already expect that kind of yeoman's effort. If we can withstand the early haymakers and settle into the game flow, we have a chance. Otherwise, we get blown out by half. Cleveland will try to hit us deep on the first play via playaction. We got a rookie back there in the secondary and he will get tested.

Sorry boys, but I'm not feeling it for Sunday.

1. Dallas was 2-4 last year when facing winning teams...before Packers in playoffs
2. Cleveland had 2nd best defense last year (DVOA rating)
3. The dog pound is loud and emotional & Browns were 8-1 at home last year
4. Guyton facing Myles Garrett in his very first game is too much
5. Dallas has lost 8 of it's last 11 games on grass
6. Cleveland has one of the most complete rosters in NFL
7. First game of season = sloppy. Cleveland can be damp and windy.

And the problem is that with McCarthy as a lame duck HC, this thing could get out of hand quickly if they lose and lose bad to Cleveland.

Zimmer is gonna earn his salary in this first game.......... Cleveland is gonna jam it right down our throats and we don't have much talent at DT so Zimmer is going to have to scheme/play call his way to a solid defensive performance.

Yeah....seems like too much IMO.

We'll know in the first 5-10 minutes where this game is heading.

If Cleveland can just grind us on the ground and get an early score and Dak and the offense so out there and look inept in the first drive or two, you'll know where this game is heading. Rarely does this team start off really slow against a good team and figure it out as the game goes on.

 

[The Natural]

it means they are a top team in a very tough competitive division that we are playing at their house which means there should be concern to it being a very tough game to win - what is so hard about that to comprehend? It was a pretty straightforward statement.

I never called them the big bad browns but they are the home team, have a stout defense and a very good running game, in sloppy weather facing our team that is historically challenged on grass. You can keep drinking the koolaid all you want dude but this is a tough matchup and cause for concern

You sound like a little you know what right now

 

[ChronicCowboy]

I agree that a loss is likely. Only chance we have is early mistakes by Cleveland.

People don't realize this!!!
