Crunch time. If we cant beat the Browns then this will be a loonnnnnnnnngggg season.

After Sunday I think Culpepper should start in place of Josh.....he just couldn't get it done last week.

The one bright spark was Jordans 150+ yards on 25 carries. In fact he has 40 carries for 229 yards at 6.7 ypc average. We need more of that.

Shame thats Fargas can't run through a paper bag at the moment - looking forward to when Rhodes is available.

Yeah, hope Jordan can continue that form - multiply up to 16 games and that's a 1700 yard season Grin

Need Dc to start on Sunday, and the D to find some of the play they gave us last year - pass rush seems to be non-existent this year.

maybe the defence isn't as good as we thought. Last year teams got a lead on the Raiders and then ran the ball. Wouldn't need to pass on us....

given up an average 272 yards so far thos season  Angry c'mon boys get a grip. Cant let Anderson repeat what he did against the Bengals.

We need to get a W in that win - loss coloumn and pronto.

WIN WIN WIN  Grin

still it was only the Browns, but they had demolished the Bengals the week before who had beaten the Ravens before that. Does that mean we're better than Baltimore? Grin

Josh is a liability and it wouldn't surprise me if Dante starts against Miami and leads the boys to victory.

Jordan was brilliant again today, and Curry was the go to guy. Porter has just 4 catches through the first 4 games.

I think we're heading in the right direction. Running game seems to work so I guess we'll be pounding the rock a bit more - good.

a win's a win!

Lamont Jordan second leading rusher in the league - that's how we want to play, run it up the gut. He looks like he's running harder this year to me, more faith in the O line perhaps?

maybe the threat of losing his starting job to Rhodes has created an all new mind set for him.

For me he has been the best player through the first 3 games. Defence did better against the Browns.

Based on what I have seen and listened to we can go between 6 - 10 and 8- 8 this year.
