Jim Brown was drafted to the Browns in 1957. When he was drafted everyone knew hw was the man. They he was just the last piece of the puzzle to start winning, and they did. Not only was he the best player on the team, but he was a …show more content…
leader. Everyone looked up to him because everything came from his heart. He was a winner. He went on to do everything he said, and left records behind. not including the 15549 all pupose yards he racked up in his career.
Jim Brown retired from the Cleveland Browns in 1965, and was selected ALL NFL 8 times in his career.
He retired in the peek of his career. He had no major body or head injuries. He went on the do a lot for the communities and for the game of football. He also went on and did a little acting. He stared in a couple low budget movies. Made a couple guess appearance on a couple tv shows. At 79 he is still up and moving and still showing mad love for his favorite team the Cleveland Browns.
I would even take the team for the 80s era. When we were known as the kardiac Kids. we had a decent team back then at 10-6. We had great players then like Bernie Kosar, Earnest Byner, Webster Slaughter, and even Eric Metcalf. They were not Hall of Famers, but they played decent football together. I remember they made it to the playoffs, and was playing to make it to the championship, and Earnest Byner fumbled the ball in the end zone and we lost. Thats when the Browns statred goin down hill.
It also did not help when Art Moddell took the team to make them the Balitimore Ravens. That really left Cleveland in a bad place. That almost made a lot of fans give up on the Browns, and we are die hard fans. So when they brought them back in 1999 it was on!! We just knew that the Cleveland dynasty was back, but it seemed to be the curse of the Cleveland …show more content…
Browns.
We went through 10 quarterbacks and coaches.
We have had bad coaches and quarterbacks, but we should stick with one. The only quarterback we should have stuck with was Brian Hoyer. He was born and raised in the Cleveland area, and his dream was to play for the Cleveland Browns. Brian Hoyer was the second string quaterback behind Brandon Weeden. When Weeden sucked so bad they decided to bring in Hoyer, and he took us to a 2 game winning streak. On the 3rd game, us winning Hoyer hurt himself getting us the first down. He hurt a season ending injury to his leg. The fans were so happy we finally got a quarterback that we could not wait until next
season.
So when the 2014 season started we started off pretty good. Hoyer did what we thought he would. The first games we lost by 3 to the Steelers. Which was good for us because they did not score at all in the 2nd half. When we beat the saints by 3 we knew we were going to the playoffs, and we did not. The curse kicked in. We gave up on our quarterback, and put the 2nd string in and he sucked dick. He went 0-2 in his first 2 games. Which is not going to bring us to the playoffs.
Do not get it twisted we do have some studs like our lineman Joe Thomas, our cornerback Joe Haden, and even our wide reciever Josh Gordon brfore he started getting in trouble. Everyone thought he was going to be the next big reciever. Which the fans and everyone else thought to. I wish we would trade him, because he is doing more harm then good. He sat out 10 games last season, and when he came back he was fat and lazy. He said he going to come back and show out, but he did not. He could not run more then 10 yards before he was tired, and he kept looking to the sidelines for them to take him out because he was tired. Just like Johnny Manziel. He has not played that much, and he thinks he is the Browns future. NOT! He needs to be traded to, but no one wants him, because he is a trouble case, and no other team wants to be bothered with that.
The best decision I think the Browns ever made was getting rid of our field goal kicker Cuttliff. He sucked! He did win the game for us against the Saints, but he lost a lot of games for us to just by missing all those field goals. he had to have miss at least 60 percent of his kicks. There were a lot of games we could have won if Cuttliff Would have made at least one field goal, but he could not. I blame a alot of our loosing season on him.
We have 2 first round picks this year number 12, and 16. Lets see if we can draft some good players this time, because in the past we have not done such job on our picking. The last 2 first round pick were Trent Richardson, and Brandon Weeden, and we all know how that turned out. We need to just take our time, and pick the right players that fit our team. This draft can make, or break our season. If we make bad picks our season is over before it even starts.
