I'm a Jet fan. The Jets' reputation is based more on their penchant for tabloid stories than their on-field performance. They really haven't been consistently bad. But they just have a tendency to get wrapped up in the most ridiculous stories: the butt fumble, Rex Ryan's whole schtick, constantly getting embarrassed by the Patriots, getting Brett Favre for a single season in which he awful, having a contract dispute with a career backup QB...plus being in the New York media market and always being second to the Giants. It makes them look a lot worse than they are and have been. Since 2000, they have had nine winning seasons, five losing seasons (soon to be six), and finished 8-8 twice. They've won playoff games in four of those seasons, and made it to the AFC Championship twice. So not great, but not too bad either.
Haha... my dad used to be a diehard Browns fan. Then my sister went to Florida State at the height of Bobby Bowden's career when they were the best team in the NCAA, and dad started watching college football instead of NFL. I think he was happy to make the switch.
I heard a fun fact on the radio today - there have been more Star Wars movies released in the past 366 days (2) then there have been Cleveland Browns wins (0).
Updated! There have now been the same number of Star Wars movies released in the last year as Browns wins (1). I'm excited to see how long SW can stay tied or ahead.
I"m sure if it started in like 2005 or so, they'd be here. There were a couple playoff years in the Grossman/Orton era, including a Super Bowl appearance.
Jaguars and Bills made the playoffs this past year. Raiders and Lions are both 18-14 in the past two seasons and made the playoffs in 2016. Browns . . . are still the Browns.
