Let's see who gets this, something tells me DynamiteRave will. Based on your "Pics for Sharing" posts, it looks like we frequent the same websites.

I forgot that the Browns had drafted RT Mitchell Schwartz, he played on the O-line at Cal with Alex Mack and is having a pro bowl type season. That is a nice young OL that makes me very jealous, Mack, Schwartz and Thomas. Owen Marecic the FB is one tough mofo, he played FB/LB at Stanford, a dual role player. My favorite defensive player is Frostee Rucker, who doesn't love that name.

Browns are as hot as Redskins and perhaps more surprising - The Washington Post

Like the article said we're in similar places right now. Browns have beat some underwhelming teams the last few weeks. We beat the Iggles in the midst of their downward spiral and the Giants in what was supposedly their sloppiest game in 2 or 3 years, although I think Haslett's defensive scheming gets partial credit for those penalties. The wins over the Cowboys and Ravens though can't be poo-pooed.

I think we have a more talented roster overall than the Browns though. Should be a win.

Heres a prediction.

RG3 plays. First play of the game Josh Morgan comes in motion, RG3 flicks it to him, continues to run and Morgan throws a pass (again) to RG3. RG3 gets killed on the play and is out for the year.

I think the biggest factor in this game is not measurable by stats. It all depends if CLE wants to play on Sunday. Have they packed it in for the year? Or are they loving the spoiler role?

If they come to play it is going to be a hard fought game that the Skins could easily lose.

For me the common opponent # and wins against the possible playoff contenders are important numbers, and we have better percentages in both. The fact that their one win out of 5 games was against a Pitt team that turned it over 8 times, also seems to say that some of their hot streak is less then real. We should win, and I expect that the Redskins will come to play, knowing they have a chance at playoffs and still at the division.

Same here.
