Don't know how I feel after this loss
-
I'm pretty bummed. It was nothing more than a playoff game, and we lost. Sure anything is possible, but the reality is our season is more than likely over in terms of making it to the big dance for a chance at a Super Bowl.

Let's be honest, any chance of that disappeared in September when Baker tore his labrum.

I’ve been a fan since 86 and this is the most disappointing seasons I can remember.
This Team actually had expectations this year.

I've been a fan since 57 or so and have seen good, great, kardiac and more recently ok, bad and the last few years of great expectations.
Unfulfilled great expectations year after year gets hard to take after a short period of time.
Not making the playoffs this year would not make anyone very happy no matter how long you've been a BROWNS fan.
Clear enough ? Even with covid going around why did it hit the BROWNS' so bad ? No playoffs would require answers.
Any other feelings or comments about this ?

nobody gave us a chance after Odel/nor 6-6.. Than this covid mess?
LT Kolton Miller gave Myles his toughest contest.. wide ass frame, that can move & we could not move him
the surprise of Bitonio playing LT.. seemed to need a half, to sync up with rest of OL.. Berry Sanders to Emmitt Smith would not have seen much daylight..
2 big hope looks in 1st half?..
a) Chubb took a inside lane & the outside looked like the right choice. his past injury? may have effected his jump cut.. left?
b) D'Ernest tried to spring a screen.. Blocked well.. but a lardass DT got him before sprung out of turn..
tale of 2 half's... a 2nd FG was made.. our's was a large huge 2nd miss

On one hand, I'm really proud of how they played this asses off.
On the other hand, I think of all the big games this season that they just couldn't win, but really should have that put them in this situation. Kansas City, LA Chargers, Pittsburgh and first Baltimore games come to mind.
A loss this coming Saturday will pretty much end any playoff talk.

This team (coaching staff) seemingly doesn't know how to put a game away. Do they still need to learn how to win or are we "over analytic'd"?

The last few games the BROWNS' played were playoff games, a test to see how they stood up to the other contenders. So how did the BROWNS 'do ? In our out ? A good team or overrated pretenders ?
At the beginning of the season they did have a good roster on paper.

I will agree that the depth on this team is pretty impressive. I know the Raiders suck but they just took a full strength NFL team to the limit with a ton of practice squad players and back ups.
Playoffs are a long shot this year, but the core looks pretty strong.

Right with you there mjp. I don't go back quite as far, but the unfulfilled expectations just keep piling up. Red Right 88 (I was there). The Drive, The Fumble. The Move. Now "The Covid". Like you I'm running out of "Next Years" fast.

This team has not won 2 games in a row since week 4. They have alternated W-L the past 9 weeks. They just can’t put it together consistently.
And what is with the 3 and 6 throws for 4 yards? They failed on EVERY one of them in the first half.Even Kurt Warner was saying it on the broadcast. 2nd half they threw past the marker and got first downs. -

You've pretty much got it all except the BROWNS' 64 ? Championship (I was 14) and Jim Brown retired (July 1966 I was 15) and devistated ! Only 9 years in the league 8 of 9 leading rusher, why, why.......ok I'm over that, maybe.
You get tough, resilient but then the one more big one before you know the final buzzer creeps in....... and then you get the 2018, 2019 teams then covid but the 11-5 and then maybe you know maybe 12-4 or 13-3 then *splat* reality strikes again. But what about next year.........

The fact they were in it to the end speaks about the depth on this team. McLaughlin missing another big kick. What's up with Wyatt Teller, another costly holding call.
Nick Mullens really impressed me with a gutty performance coming in and not really showing any nerves. Made some big throws, really impressed with his mental toughness. I really don't think having Baker would have made all that much of a difference, the line really wasn't opening many holes tonight. Don't think a banged up Baker gives us more than Mullens did tonight.
Why no D'Earnest Johnson running the ball, you would think he isn't even on the team anymore.
The Browns really put in a valiant effort tonight given the circumstances but there is no trophy for second place.

We had this guy called Nick Chubb. He's really good.
3rd and 3. We were THAT close to winning this game. I was thinking play action to Harrison Bryant for the win.
Mullins did a nice job of managing his position.
The Defense, as undermanned as they were, did a good job. Good enough to win.
We've just played two teams in a row that can make FG's. That's a competitive advantage against us.
I feel like we could'a, would'a, should'a won this one. And now we can't lose again until the Super Bowl is over.

Just woke up, got home from the game around 10pm last night.
It was kind of a weird atmosphere in the 1st quarter. The starting time, maybe lack of parking spaces subdued folks. Place was only like 30% full until halftime.
Really an unfortunate turn of events with all the players out. The NFL did us a favor and we still couldn't capitalize. It just seems Cle sports teams have this aura where the ceilings never get reached.
Obviously i didn't see a replay at the stadium, but that Defensive pass interference call looked like BS. I'm sick of underthrown balls becoming 45 yard gains by refs judgements....it's an ongoing problem league wide. I feel sorry for CBs...that lead to the Raiders only TD.
It's going to take a miracle now. Even the Browns' best effort probably won't be enough vs the Packers, then the hell hole called Heinz up next. Sure hope I'm wrong.
Like a few here who are long time fans, jeez one of these seasons a Super Bowl win will happen. Just hope I get to see it, been going down there since 1971.

I agree with what you said about Mullens and i would think his performance should end the days of kennum and his contract

we're laying big coin for Keenum.. I don't know if there's a higher-paid backup.
Keenum 2021: 7.33
Keenum 2022: 7.83
If we cut Keenum before 6/1/2022 he's only 4/3 M against 2022 cap.

Well, it's the next day and this loss still stings. I can't believe that on the Browns last possession they couldn't pull out one of their best plays to gain enough for a first down. I understand the regular coach wasn't there but c'mon!!
There has to be a play somewhere in that play book that can get you a guaranteed three yards on 3rd&3.
