  • Goodnight

  • Fuck you Tirico!

  • Turn out the lights. . .

  • Horrendous play calling and worst throws. This game was so eerily similar to the playoff loss to KC last year it's sickening. Great, hell elite, defensive effort with a chance to win the game. I'm not talking at the very end, but the series before.

    It's games like this where you just have to shake your head and wonder if Baker "Jared Goff" Mayfield is anything more than a dude who loses games like they did today. I mean, how many have to go this way before you feel that? The defense has to be fuming mad, literally did everything right to be given that turd.

  • Under 50% completion percentage yet again. Granted we don't have many receivers that can win one on one matchups but I don't give baker a pass when he continues to do shit like simply fumble away what was almost assuredly a td (20 yard gain minimum) on a screen to hunt

  • Don't have a coach or qb...

  • Just wrap Baker in bubble wrap and sit him until he's healthy. It's been obvious for two weeks. The guy is duct taped together. 

    Hard to te what's on the WRs when the QB play is this poor. 

  • If Baltimore beats Pittsburgh next week, we'll go into the rematch two weeks from now 6-6, they will be 9-3.

    Yeah, can't see it happening this season. That Cincinnati 41 point outburst looks more and more like a fluke, or for whatever reason that's the team Baker owns. 

  • Adios game thread...... Whew.

  • We have an offense that is built on running the ball, play action passing and throwing to the TE

    But yet our “genius” play caller throws WAY more then he runs. Allows our hurt QB to play hero ball, and lets our 2 best offensive players barely contribute

    If your going to play this type of offense. THEN RUN THAT TYPE OF OFFENSE 

  • Lots of things to be positive about. We got hit with the injury bug hard this year. JOK is a beast and was all over the field tonight. And our defense overall had an outstanding night.

    What is clear is we need a #1 receiver in the draft. Even though Baker is my guy, I say you gotta take a look at QB in the draft as well. Would not be a bad thing to have a possible future QB to groom or just to have as a good backup. 

    I am not one of those that have given up on Baker,  but you just don't know how his body will hold out. 

  • So the NFL's #1 rushing team has 37 pass attempts with its questionable QB and 15 rushing attempts with its 2 best offensive players in a game that was never more than 2 possessions, and in fact was just one for the vast majority of a low scoring game? And they lost??  

  • The running game didn't work because they stacked the box with 8 to stop Chubb and Hunt. It worked to perfection for the Ravens. The Ravens essentially said: "Try to beat us Baker". Baker couldn't. It's as simple as that.

    15 total rushes does not make a concerted effort to establish your identity and toughness in a 1 score game. Less than 4 runs per quarter is just bad play calling. 

    ^ You privately ask every Browns offensive lineman and both RBs and all 7 will agree.

    Did you watch the game? And I'm not being sarcastic. We averaged 2.4 yards per carry. There were defenders in the backfield as Chubb/Hunt were getting the ball almost the entire night - it was that bad. With 8 in the box the whole night the Ravens just dared us to throw and we had no answer.

  • What is ir going to take for Kev to bench Baker?

    I suspect a broken leg would do it.... 

    @unsympathetic said:

    Bullshit.  This is just as true as your promise to leave the thread or the forum today.

    You have never been positive about anything about the Browns - ever.  You're not "a fan" - because that would mean feeling something good.

    FWIW, my browns "fandom" goes back to the late 50s.  Maybe you missed it- I didn't... Baker "the crip" was gimping again and Stef decided to ride him just like the Titanic to another non playoff year. It's over Grover, sunshine pumpers.

    4 picks

    And if you can't beat the Ravens when super Lamar tosses FOUR picks.. You don't deserve to win. And in 12 games this season the Browns stellar offense hasn't scraped up 20 points or more seven times.  Don't blame the defense. For the good of the team- and the Browns- Baker needs to be shut down. For all practical intents, losing to the Ravens ended their playoff hopes.

    Duh!!!  Ya think?   Mayfield is just a shadow of his healthy self....

    15 total rushes in a one score game. Stef never gave his guys a chance to get into a rhythm. I guess you like the whopping 10 points that Stef's 37 (38 with his cute WR pass) passes put on the board?

    The Ravens had 8 in the box and there were literally 2-3 Ravens players in the backfield as Chubb and Hunt were getting the ball. There is no rhythm to establish unless you want 0 points instead of 10. 

  • Defense hands you 4 turnovers and you score 10 measly, stinking pts. What’s holding the qb and offense bck now since what was holding them bck has been removed. ANYONE, dare to guess- Shannon Sharpe

    So early in the season when the Browns were up late and went into their 4 minute offense to seal the game and the opposition loaded the box because the entire stadium knew they were going to run, and yet they still did it anyway.... well, I guess no one told the Browns that they couldn't run with 8 in the box? 

    Again, if it were a 2 or 3 possession game I get it, but not in a one score game. We asked our injured, lacking in confidence and generally poor playing QB to win the game rather than our 7 best players (yes, the Conklin injury was big).

    We'll never know what the score might have been if Stef tried to establish the run game, but what we do know is what the score was with him not trying to establish it.... so I guess you win??
