● "Official" ? ▪︎ WEEK 18 ▪︎ BROWNS 14 ● Bengals 31 ? Jan. 7th, a 14-31 second team "Loss"
-
I didn’t watch but what do you expect from Driskel signed on Monday playing with a bunch of backups.
-
Yes the coaching staff really screwed that up good. The team did not deserve that loss today.
Third and goal from the 1 and the Jags didn't try to run it in on 3rd down. Poor coaching.
And Lawrence was not accurate today. My 8 year old grandson is a Jaguars fan. I wanted us playing each other next week!
Man, our game was a complete waste of time. On defense we had several players who couldn't shed blocks and couldn't tackle. On a TD run, Mixon made Jordan Kunaszyk #51 look like a backup to a backup. And on offense, we signed some QB during the week and trotted him out there like a crash test dummy. And who'd have thunk that the maligned David Bell would catch 2 TD's? The first one was like he was fielding a punt in the end zone.

Fun game to attend. We were fortunate to land seats just behind the drunkest guy in our section, who l did not photograph because then he would’ve talked and talked and talked to me. Fuck all that.
The handful of times l’ve gotten super shitfaced at a Browns/Bengals game l ended up in some circle of Bengals fans talking about how much we hate the Steelers. Again, fuck all that.
Not much to cheer for this game. That first first down in the 2nd quarter was far more exciting than it should’ve been. How about David Bell? Shares a name with the Reds’ manager. Coincidence? Probably.

I watched most of that game, the Titans just wanted it more, agree Lawrence was really inaccurate, the play calling was terrible and the Jags were just outcoached overall. They didn't deserve to be in the playoffs although I would have preferred them. Anyway to be the best you have to beat the best so I'm up to beating everyone including Baltimore on the way to our first Super Bowl.

McDonalds Coffee?
¿Como se llama?
We hit Crown Republic for brunch pre-game. 5 stars, would recommend. Pricey joint, but top notch service and excellent food and bloody mary’s.
Bloody mary’s are over the top weird these days. There’s like a cornucopia of pickled and fried items involved. Bacon and olives and pepperoncinis, oh my.
Have any of you ever tried to spell pepperoncini before? It was like 20 minutes of my life trying to figure out how to spell that, and l’m still not sure if l got it. I would totally throw that word out at a spelling bee and watch some 6th grader piss their pants.
Anyways, no. There was no McDonald’s coffee involved.

Hot chocolate! They have vendors patrolling the stands selling it.
Which reminds me, it was super cool seeing vendors hocking beer and hot cocoa in the stands there. That’s something that has disappeared at Great American Ballpark for you baseball fans who venture to Cincy.
Has that disappeared at the Jake too? (or whatever corporate name it goes by now). Or anyone privy to the goings on at any other MLB ballparks these days regarding vendors patrolling the stands?
I seriously miss it and consider it an integral part of the ballpark experience. Not to hijack the thread or anything, but l’m totally trying to hijack the thread.

Anybody been to a Jacksonville game?
Searching any hotels within walking to stadium?
Easy flight from NC for wildcard game, but got to move on it quickly this afternoon
Get this Win ! going to Browns-backer party in Greenville,NC to chat this win up ? Go Browns !

Never been to Jacksonville for a game, but I have been down Houston way a couple of times... As I told our England Browns fan, if you're planning on going down (or over in your case) contact the Space City Browns Backers....
Please tell me that's not where most of our usual crowd is at.
Tampa? nope, I got so disgusted after it hit (predictably) 21-0 not wanting to watch garbage football, I prevailed onto the TV control meister to pretty much switch over to the Jags- Titans game.... Only to watch them pathetically play themselves out of the playoffs. Lawrence was obviously playing hurt and his accuracy was way off. I had our game recorded, but I deleted it, not going to waste my time watching it...
I even walked out to TV room #2 for a good stretch to catch the Lions game where real football was being played.

Playoffs? Did you say PLAYOFFS? Praise the Lord, both the Browns and my alternate team the Lions both avoided the bullshit Peacock exclusive game Saturday night.
Pure money grabbing crap by the NFL. How many alternate streaming services do the a-holes in the NFL think fans are going to sign up for? MNF ESPN... TNF Amazon (that one isn't too bad, as most folks already have Prime) then Sunday Ticket on YouTube (looks like from my POV they made a huge mistake shelling out billions for the exclusive) ... Now Peacock thinks that's the ticket to increased signups for their streaming service. Sorry Charlie. That's the harbinger of pay per view in the NFL... Had the Browns gotten shafted with a Peacock exclusive, I have a funny feeling tens of thousands Browns fans would have paid NBC the $7 buck one month subscription, and dropped them as soon as the game was over.
Maybe I should start a survey from you guys how many streaming services you subscribe to? I'm at two- Paramount+ (Star Trek) and the wife has Netflix... This is getting ridiculous...

The former. Bell is underrated by both the coaching staff and here on the board!
Prior to today Bell and Flacco had some chemistry. We can't really hold it against Bell when Cooper and Flacco had something unstoppable going in other outings. I think Bell is going to turn out just fine. The 1st part of this year couldn't have been easy for the 2nd year WR to get any chemistry going when they went from Watson to DTR to PJ Walker back to Watson back to DTR. All that wasn't easy for Cooper either. If I had to guess, our coaching staff is keenly aware of this and they've limited his reps because of it. Key word in that sentence is guess.

You can't compare Bell to Coop. Certainly not yet.
You can however compare him to DPJ, which a good portion of the board still pines for. DPJ got lucky, because he played for the Browns at a time when we had a shit WR corps (yes, that includes you Odell). The lack of other options meant he got the ball more.
David didn't get targeted so often. Heck, he only got to play about half the snaps in his rookie season. In those snaps, he did show IMO two of the best qualities a WR can have: he is very good at creating separation, and he holds onto the ball.
Bell showed just how he makes up for his lack of straight-line speed with an average target separation of 2.5 yards and an average cushion of 4.75 yards (for context, Amari Cooper — who's touted as an elite route runner — had a 1.72-yard target separation and a 4.51-yard average cushion). Combine Bell's ability to create separation with his low drop rate (just 2 drops on 35 targets) and the Browns might just have a very reliable under-the-radar receiver in their midst.

Yesterday, against the Bengals starters who most definitely wanted to win, he showed what he can do if he gets the ball more often. I hope the FO do not renew Goodwin. Maybe draft another WR who can mature behind Bell and Tillman.

It's Progressive Field. It's been Progressive Field for longer than it was Jacobs Field.
There still is vendors at Progressive, but it definitely feels like they are less prevalent than they used to be. Now that I think of it - at least in the section I sat in at the Browns stadium for two games this year - they were practically nonexistent.

Yup. It's ridicules.
I don't view it if I have to pay for another streaming service. Just getting Direct TV, cell phones and internet is ridiculous enough already.

Cool, thank you. I guess l should say they still exist at the GAB but they hang back behind or below the stands, so they’re no longer walking stairs and we no longer hear their colorful sales pitches like “cooooold beeeer heeeyer!”
I really miss it. It was kind of a quintessential part of the whole ballpark experience that has gone away down here.

As to the above for sure Tex... Most of us are already spending more on that stuff than we're paying on our gas and electric bills. ?
Regarding Peacock getting the exclusive to the Chiefs- Dolphins Saturday night game... A lot of fans are pretty outraged over it. If you live in the KC or Miami area, it will be broadcast OTA. However, this one is pure greed on the part of the NFL, which accepted a $110 million bribe from NBC to have exclusive rights to the game. I hope their viewership rating for the game sucks, and the NFL discovers that they shouldn't try this stunt again in the future
Of course, I'm not going to pay (I did a little research) NBC $5.99 to watch the game, and then immediately cancel afterwards. Unfortunately, us Browns fans are going to get stuck paying that sometime next year when we're forced having to do that. ? Hopefully, the game will be on delay on NFLN....
Doing more research, Peacock's channel lineup is a big yawn. For those who have already ditched DirecTV and gone to Hulu or Fubo, it's a duplication of viewing. I guess the 28 million Peacock subscribers who are NFL fans will luck out and not have to pay extra to see the game.
If you have unlimited $$$ I could easily see someone paying $500 bucks a month just on TV streaming services.
