Browns get C- grade and Weeden on the hot seat already: National Perspective
http://www.cleveland.com/browns/inde...nd_brando.html

ESPN.com's John Clayton sees a big difference between Brandon Weeden and Miami QB Ryan Tannehill.

"Tannehill over Weeden: Winning in the NFL comes down to the quarterback. Although Brandon Weeden still has a chance to become a decent NFL starter, Ryan Tannehill is better. That became pretty clear Sunday. The Tannehill-led Dolphins traveled to the Dog Pound and beat the Browns, 23-10. Or you can say the Browns beat themselves. Weeden threw three interceptions and had a fumble".
You can say the Browns beat themselves if you didn't watch the game. Weeden is not a good NFL QB, but that Dolphins D looked elite. This was not a case of the Browns giving a game away, the Dolphins D took that game.

I knew this trade would come back to bite them. Even if Boldin didn't always put up the numbers, he was always clutch in key situations.

On the bright side the Ravens are tied for first in the AFC North at 0-1. I would be more worried if I was a Pittsburgh fan right now.

I could not see the game in this market. The Browns did have more yards and first downs than the Dolphins. Three interceptions look bad.

Interestingly (to me) the Browns held the Dolphins to 0.9 yards per rush. That is impressive. Maybe two pretty good defences there.

Still can't believe they committed to Brandon Weedon in the draft last year.

Honestly I am not even sure he is an improvement on Colt McCoy, and they used a first rounder on him.

I think he is better than McCoy, and he looked great in August. Yesterday is disappoint.

I'm not so good at the maths, so don't ask me to to break it down any further.

Yes, Sunday Ticket is worth it.
I like the deal I get here with Rogers, Super Sports Pack gives you the big 4 major sport leagues packages for 29.99 a month.

Think they are better then a last place team though, no chance they get Bridgewater.

The issue I had was the pick was Weeden's age. Already 29 years old and they used a first rounder on him.

Jacksonville has to be the worst team in the league by far. At one point yesterday they had 58 total yards on 43 plays. When your offence is that awful...it leads to you playing a practice squad defence by year end because guys have literally dropped dead.

The Browns will have to trade up if they want the top pick in this draft. I heard Clowney has only been somewhat average so far in his first two games, he was hyped big time for this draft.

Likely a 14 point swing there. Ouch.
