    ...still, he was laying out a defenseless receiver.  And we've had calls go against us at the end of games.  That's how it goes.  We Win.   ...this time... 

    I thought it was bang bang. I saw a similar hit in the Bucs game that they actually picked up the flag. But like I said, we are almost always on the losing end of these kinds of calls. Overall, the officiating has been terrible this year.

    Any call that requires subjectivity can be like predicting the weather.  They get it right a lot...but they can get it wrong.  The one that gets me is when they called Cooper OB a couple games back.  He wasn't even near OB.  Therefore impossible for the official to have seen him OB.  How do you call something that you did not see?  

    ...and hell yeah, We're always on the losing end of these types of endings.  Countless times...a ticky tack defensive penalty...then watching another FG kicker put a lousy end to our weekend.  Countless times.

    Now, going back to Stef...it's another rookie kicker, this one drafted in round 3...and he's already missed one......call time out and let the rookie think about this game winning or LOSING FG attempt for a minute.....

    As a DB? Not a fan of the call. 

    As a Browns devotee? About time we're on the positive end of some of these flags. 

    And what's up with Wills picking the 1 time to get out of his stance on time and hustle downfield like he was going to hit someone before the screen pass was thrown?  He's played how many years of football and he didn't know this rule?

    All that said, I dare say he played one of his better games.  I'm ecstatic a lot of people got to see how good Michael Dunn was yesterday.  As as improbable as it may have seemed, those 2 guys had pretty good chemistry.

    Not saying much.  But even then, it still wasn't good.  When he was on Bosa, he would have surrendered pressures if Watson was the QB driving the ball downfield.  Beyond that, a lot of screen game and chip help.     JW is still who he is at this point.

    ? I hear ya, but I still saw some effort from him even if he was inconsistent at best.  That's epic improvement from him. He hasn't exactly spoiled me as you know T from all the complaining I've done about him the last 2 years.  You are right he is who he is though....

  • And I don't feel bad about this week's either! 

  • Now I know what it feels like to be a Steelers/Chiefs/Tom Brady fan! 

  • Green Bay Christmas Day non call.

  • HELL NO!

    Did you see the strollers get that call to end the game today?   TOTAL BS

    Yeah...I saw it. They just always win and frankly I'm getting a little sick of it. People made fun of Kenny Pickett but I'd gladly take him over whoever we have back there. And that includes Watson. For the first time since the trade I find myself wondering if he's any good...at all. For example, that play he got hurt on doesn't make sense. Why take the hit? Do you guys realize how many senseless hits he take by holding onto the ball? It's like the game speed passed him by somehow. 

  • Heard some people saying the illegal contact call that negated the fumble was controversial. The guy clearly reaches out to grab Cooper. This was the right call. The call in the end zone was little closer. But do I care? Fuck no.

    Kenny Pickett is Colt McCoy. A career backup that is just that. He will never win anything

    Kenny Pickett is closer to Bubby Brister 2.0,,,,,, McCoy still has a career...

    If we can ever get this former 10th pick overall to play like more than the 1st syllable of asset - we can get off our acid reflux meds on Sundays.   I'm not asking for much here - I'll take how he played as a rookie showing promise...

    I can’t recall the scouting report on him…I know we had a major need at that spot there were four lineman deemed draftable in the first round.  Wirfs was smaller I recall for the position, I loved his wrestling Background.  Thomas was most polished I believe.  I don’t like reaching in the first because of need I especially hate reaching for offensive lineman.

    I hear ya.    HOF LT Joe Thomas spoiled us for 10 years with elite performance.  The sad thing was the Browns could never find a good enough QB during that span to make any of that matter.  The best record we had in that period was 10-6 during his rookie year; and of course it's the Browns - so 10-6 didn't make the playoffs that year.
