The Browns 2009

Before the season began, I looked at our team and decided that a REALISTIC prediction would be 4 wins. 5 seemed too many, but I thought that 3 seemed a bit pessimistic.

Now having seen what our team is (in)capable of, I have to revise my picks. We won't win a single game this year. If we do, the other team will probably be demoted to the CFL for having lost to such a bad team.

Two years ago, I was optimistic about our talent level and thought we were close. Now I can clearly see that a total rebuild is needed and the only way we can be competitive again would be to do EVERYTHING right for the next 4 years in the draft and free agency and hope to compete again in 2013. Nothing will happen before then of note.

It doesn't help when most of our players are about as useful as spa filters in the Sahara and any talent we once had has either disappeared or been traded.
