    So my Browns are back in action.

    How do you think they will do this year?

    I'm thinking we should have gotten our QB in the draft when we had the chance.


    The Browns are so bad that, never mind this year, they have already been eliminated from the 2017 playoffs too.

    I am a life long Browns fan. I was happy with the draft. I don't think either QB was worth a 1st or 2nd draft pick. See what RGIII can do this year, if doesnt work out, see what is available next year. I think they will surprise a few teams this year.

    So excited my Boys "Da Boys" first preseason game tonight!

    I see 5-11 in their future. Maybe worse when Romo goes down after week 3.

    Is that week 3 of preseason or regular season?

    I'm an Eagles fan so less excited going into this season than usual, but still excited. Penn State, Oklahoma and Clemson for college football.

    So glad to be back to football season!!!!

    Browns fan - I know, I know; heard every crack there is to make. One day it will pay off then I get my turn to be intolerable :) I expect 3 wins this year and we'll find out we finally have WR's but no running game. Defense will not be good. RG3 will be a placeholder but maybe we'll get lucky and he'll hold that place for a couple years.

    Ohio State fan - Lifelong Buckeye being from Ohio and started my college education there. Helps balance out the emotions from being a Browns fan. If the youth can mature quickly and beat Oklahoma week 3, I expect an undefeated regular season and a playoff berth. If they can't get it together, might see 3 losses. But after this year, a dynasty will be in the works with the recruiting classes that have been put together.

    I play fantasy but this year I've only gotten in 1 family league that's pretty tame. Rest of my leagues fell apart for various reasons.

    Good luck to everyone's teams... unless you're playing one of the above, then you can go to hell >:)

    Sounds like we are in the same boat. I was born and raised in Columbus, I did my undergrad degree at Ohio State. So while it has been a long 47 years (started following when I was 8 years old) being a Browns fan, it's been pretty good being a Buckeye. Though it was a long wait between 1969 and 2002 for a national championship.

    Absolutely!!! Football season needs to be extended. Baseball drags on forever and football seems to end before it starts!

    Agreed!

    Longhorns and Texans fan here.

    I'm as pumped as anyone about seeing Kevin White this year but I don't see anything better than 7-9.

    I'm expecting a good season and I think Dak is going to be a great back up when and if Tony goes down.
    I hate if he does but hard to imagine that shoulder staying healthy all year?

    I'll probably be the only Illinois fan on here. Mainly for basketball but I have to admit I'm pretty excited that we just hired Lovie Smith!

    I'm finding the lack of preseason games on tv disturbing. I could've sworn they used to televise more of them. I need my football fix.

    Why would I expect a Buckeye fan to be able to figure that out from my profile pic? Silly me :D;)

    Why would he mention that team up north.

    That's funny! Just yesterday I was thinking it felt like there were more televised than usual this preseason..there were 4 games going last night. Not that I'm complaining..just saying!

    I'm a Bills fan. I think our season is already over (too many injuries/suspensions to the defense already).

    Notre Dame, however, has a sick squad. Should be in the BCS title hunt this season!

    And I hate the entire SEC!

    Oh, I saw the hat. Just figured you'd lost some schitty bet to put something like that on :)

    But no, I hope your team loses every game :p

    Browns/Buckeyes Columbusite here. The best thing about football Saturdays is errands get run so quickly. :) I still watch when I can, but I can't call myself a "fan". I do really enjoy it though.

    I have to say, as much as I love pro, I appreciate college football so much more.
