  • LeRoy Kelly returning a punt is what made me a fan... From our 20 to the other 20.. He was stumbling and bouncing the ball in the air and running very low to the ground but somehow secured the ball to give us great field position.. I haven't seen anything like it since...

    It was on par with that but even more amazing

    I still maintain the Browns will be 7-10 due to lack of leadership.. And a failed washed up QB.. I hope I'm wrong...

    Gonna be a difficult start to the season for sure. Could either blow this team apart or make 'em a contender.

    You absolutely do not wish you are wrong.

    No one on this board enjoys being miserable like you do.

  • I’m watching these Instagram highlights of Watson zinging the ball around…he looks good.  I like hearing that he’s got his face in the playbook all the time.

    I think we could be sneaky good.  I felt good before 2021- but I felt like the expectations were much higher a few years ago the national spotlight is nowhere near us.

    key injuries of course could derail things but I think we have rebound year coming.

    On paper, there's a lot of things the Browns did this offseason that point to a turnaround from last season's disappointing finish. 

    But man, if I had a gun to my head I'd probably still have them at 7-10 or 8-9, even though an improvement in all three phases looks very likely. Such is the life of being a jaded Browns fan, I guess. I just do not see Stefanski being the head coach come this time next year.

    It's obviously real real easy to be skeptical with the Browns.

    While some of their offseason moves didn't "wow" the critics (see article above), I think the Schwartz hiring and the addition of Elijah Moore will be great for them. There's a little bit of the "unexpected" which CAN work in the Browns' favor especially in the early part of the season....they could surprise teams with a different defensive look/schemes, and if thyese analytical nerds put their heads together, the offense could be explosive.

    Yeah, I'm more optimistic than pessimistic. When they finally win an opener vs Cincy, well then this board and the entire fan base will be all giddy?

    The Browns have the roster to win NOW. Some of our stars are starting to age so if not now, WHEN? If winning and being a part of winning a championship for the best player to ever take the field isn't modivation enough, this team is truely fucked. If they come out and lay a goose egg this season, this team will never be a winner and the cultrure hasn't changed.

  • Like I said elsewhere.  This team needs to come out blowing snot.

    A slow start could end it early.  I don't want guys getting hurt in camp, but I would rather that over setting out to game one dilly farting around.  We have to win home games, especially home division games.

    We need a 7-2 home record to have a chance, with a home sweep of the division rivals.  Otherwise we will get screwed by the tie breakers.

    For once we agree on something... I was never a proponent of Stefanski from the start.. While I think he's an admirable person and I respect his commitment to God... I just don't think he is the Alpha leader Depodesta envisions him to be.. I say this having been raised by my Father and a Stepfather who were both Alpha personalities.. Strong willed , etc... I think Kevvy is a "nice" guy.. But I agree w/Ghoolie when he says Shitmypantsky is not calling the shots.. Or better to say he's only calling shots on a limited basis.. If that makes any sense... I thought he managed Mayfield poorly and I'm not excusing Mayfield either... Mayfield should've kept his trap shut..... While that ship has sailed.. There are other instances I saw that he mishandled and that was the locker room in general... My gut feeling is Jim Schwartz might become the next HC... I just think he's a more sturdy guide and doesn't put up with BS... Almost Belichic like.. But in his own business like style.

    Are saying the name of the new stadium should be Charlie Brown Stadium rather than Jim Brown Stadium??

    They have all the talent and they have a reason to go deep into the postseason.  If they have a losing season this year, you might as well make Charlie Brown the mascot with peppermint Patty pulling the ball away.

    Stefanski is squarely on the hot seat.  If it doesn’t go well or goes same as usual- he’s gone and then you have 2024 where Berry and Watson will be on that spot.

    We had a ton of brain fart type games…Jets, Falcons, Chargers, Saints…we had no business losing those games…give us two there and we are 9-8…three and we are a 10 win team.

    Jets & Saints games were squarely on the players IMHO. 

  • Jimmy Haslam still own the team?

    Dee still involved in the decision-making process?

    Kevin Stefanski is the last scapegoat they've got.

    Jim Brown needs to smile upon the team from Heaven.
