Browns Struggling To Score A Touchdown

Were the Browns better with Mr. Crennel at the helm?


They’re 0-3 in 2009.  They’ve lost 9 straight regular season games dating back to last season.  They’ve scored no important offensive touchdowns in those 9 games.

And now, they’re juggling quarterbacks – as if we believe that either of them will make a difference.  I guess they forgot that there was a reason that they benched Derek Anderson in favor of Brady Quinn in the first place.

On top of that, now that the Detroit Lions have won a football game, the Cleveland Browns have inherited the title of the “laughing stock of the NFL”…the new Los Angeles Clippers of football, if you will.

Joshua Cribbs is one of the few bright spots for the Browns.

Is it me…or do the Browns truly look much worse to start this year than they did at the beginning of last year?  Eric Mangini does not seem as if he’s able to motivate these guys at all.  Late last year, Browns fans would have found it hard to imagine that they’d be wishing Romeo Crennel was still around…but that couldn’t be any farther from the truth.

Their defense give up big plays – including this ultra-embarrasing one right here.  They yield 31.7 points per game (last in the NFL).  Those points are due to the 413 (30th) yards per game their defense is giving up, which includes 184 yards on the ground (also 30th).

And their offense is downright offensive to watch.  They are averaging 9.7 points a game (31st in the NFL) and 218 ypg (last).

So, Cleveland’s opponents are outscoring them by 22 points per game and outgaining them by a whopping 195 yards per game.

The statistics don’t lie.  Right now, the Browns are undoubtedly the worst team in the NFL.  Now we’ll be able to see if they can challenge the Lions record for futility, matching their 0-16 season from a year ago.

And on their way to futility, maybe they’ll score a touchdown or two.

Sorry, there are no polls available at the moment.
