    Browns Injury Report: Yet another offensive tackle is hurt

    That's not good.  It's the same knee that kept him out last year, correct?   Hopefully Conklin & Wiils can play this week...but they'll probably be some rust.  

  • Where can you watch on the local tvs?

    Looks like most of Ohio is good, except for my forsaken homies in Van Wert county. You border areas in PA, WV and KY are good too.

    Most of NY is good as well, except for you Buffalopian tubes. Let’s hear it for CT and VT. Vermont is the setting for half of all Christmas movies on the Hallmark channel, so we’ll consider this an early Christmas gift for you. 

    And somehow the shitty parts and the good parts of New Jersey get the Browns. That would be Newark and Red Bank, respectively. 

    Eddie Wilson lives!

    last week they didn't say shit,next thing he was back in the line up

  • All Ddub has to do is be a game manager and the Browns should win this without too much struggle... But we have also watched this team play to the lowest level possible at times... But I like our chances

    Browns 21

    No, no, no.  WE were the change of scenery that he supposedly needed.  Now he needs a change of scenery from the change of scenery?  

    Back when me, Moses and Keith Richards were watching Jim Brown the Patriots were in some other league.  Most people's favorite NFL team in New England was the Giants.  They were the 'local' NFL team so they were on TV a lot...along with the Eagles, Colts, Redskins and Browns.

    --  This is one of my Must Win games.  You've GOT to beat the teams that you're supposed to beat......if your goal is to qualify for the playoffs.

    Was on my list too. On the "NFL's Hardest Schedule" this looked liked one of the few gimmes.

    Next 3, Giants, Raiders, and Washington are all must wins for the Browns, if the playoffs are in their future. Gotta have the ones you should win.

    Where is it rated the "NFL's Hardest Schedule"? Someone here??

  • I'll be interested how Amari Cooper plays Sunday.

    I wouldn't be shocked if Berry trades him by the trade deadline, especially if he can get a WR in another trade. (Or for Cooper).

    So you're thinking Jeudy, Moore & Tillman.  And then hoping that Thrash can bring the preseason into the regular season.   I'm assuming...

    I remember hearing or reading that he felt appreciated Joe Flacco's style over Watsons.

    ***Spoiler: Most probably do***

    I say get as much as possible for him and fill in some gaps where needed. At this point, he's gone after this season anyways.

    If Jeudy keeps looking good and plays well with Watson, and Tillman keeps progressing, yes.

    Or if Berry can find someone looking to dump a WR with salary, like how he got Cooper in the first place, then definitely yes.

    He might be in a funk, but it is obvious he's gone after this season at the most, unless he'd be ok with signing another one year deal with the Browns.

    I think you and I and everyone else knows that will not be the case. 

    And if Berry can find someone that was like Cooper a couple of years ago - a guy with a big contract who a team is looking to dump - I could see the Browns pulling the trigger on that guy and dumping Cooper this season. 

  • Cooper was a non factor against the Jags (unless you're counting the long wide open ball that he dropped...that was a negative factor)...but Watson targeted him 8 times.  Watson obviously has faith in him.  He set a Browns single game receiving record last year.  I have to assume that he hasn't turned into a bum in one offseason.  

    It's a cold hard business sometimes....but I have a warm soft spot for good players who want to remain a Cleveland Brown.  Perhaps that qualifies me as a fool...but it can just be added to my list of qualifications.  🙂

    No one with any football knowledge at all cares about last year. TOTALLY different teams, different rosters, different injuries occured, and several different coaching staffs. A preseason strength of schedule based on last seasons wins and losses is 100% meaningless.

    A 17 game sample size gives a more accurate data point than a 2 game sample size.

    The original post was in parenthesis, adding relativity to what was being emphasized.

    By week 6-7 it will change.

    I don't care about records after 2 games this season either. I certainly don't care about last seasons wins and losses.

    You posted something 100% based off last seasons wins and losses. It's 100% meaningless, sorry.

    Didn't know a Giants & Browns game thread for week 3 of the 2024 season, is about NFL teams 2023 wins and losses.

    My bad.
