Boycott the bullshit

I'm wondering how many current Browns Board members actually attend the games.
I dropped my season tickets this year, it seemed to me I was the only one going.
I'm not into telling people how they should "fan," it's their money.
Yeah, the days of going to a tailgate are over for some, like me - Browns aren't worth it anymore. The watson trade debacle was the last straw, and haslam and steflunski don't inspire many fans, if not most of the players. I watch the games on record, when I have nothin better to do, and I often fast forward through the offense, just to watch the defense - the defense is worth watching.
I believe that it is the first time in NFL history, that a team had a punt and a kickoff returned for touchdowns in a...half? Maybe someday, browns, but....
-
In a half? Wasn't it in 3 touches?
Back to back kicks, I think 34 seconds?

I stand corrected. That's even worse.
Yep.
Incomplete pass x3, punt, TD Jets.
Boooooooooo

Hard to believe this FO tandem & all those in leadership positions responsible (including HC) hasn't heard something like this. I'm not one that wants to see people lose their jobs; but we're talking about guys making 6-7 figures that won't have trouble finding work again.
The ONLY thing that would suck about it is that Depodesta wasn't still here to hear any of it - kind of like the 2 missing frat brothers the Dean mentions in the video. He already has a new job back in MLB where using film to evaluate players isn't as necessary as it is in football - his Utopian comfort zone that detours the WHY for just the numbers... We just need so much better - but we're in this position too frequently for comfort with this owner so firing one more group doesn't mean ski-wat if you hire another equivalent group. You fire to upgrade or get someone in here that can help you do this the right way...

Using the Animal House reference of "7 years of college down the drain" in real life....it's 10 years of experimenting in a billion dollar industry down the drain?

Wow! That part you highlighted in blue scares me even more about Jimmy. I might be wrong about assigning a lot of my frustration at Depodesta especially considering he didn't exactly hire himself. And regarding Berry, how can you work under Howie Roseman's supervision in Philly and not be capable of adding 1 reliable keeper in the draft on the OL the entire time since 2020? It is possible that 6th round pick Luke Wypler could turn into one at C/OG in the neat future but come on.
The firings that will take place soon may excite many but only as long as the Owner is capable of hiring Keepers in the FO and HC this time around. God only knows what kind of hiring criteria this guy uses: "Have you stayed at a Holiday Inn recently?"

It's really hard to defend Haslam, but he was probably thinking nothing else was working and he'd give it a shot.
My opinion is he really wants stability in the organization and he stuck with DePo way too long.
He pulled the trigger way to quick on Chud, allowed Ray Farmer too much power for instance. Hired Hue,which seemed to make sense at the time ( ugh).
I know I have repeating syndrome, but I like Stefanski, but he's most likely doomed now. The only thing that saves him is wins down the stretch, or key players supporting him. 5-22 isn't really acceptable at all despite the roster inefficiencies.

From a Supply/Demand perspective, this off-season is going to be a horrible off-season to find a football coach.
NCAA Openings: LSU, Penn St, Florida, Auburn, Arkansas, VA Tech, Stanford, OK St, UCLA
NFL Openings: Titans, NYG
Hot Seats: Dolphins, Cardinals, Browns, Bengals, Falcons, NYJ
That's alot of movement. It's no guarantee a successful NFL coach can coach on Saturdays. It's no guarantee a successful College coach is ready for Sundays.
But it's the flowchart of the entire staffs. When there are so many openings, guys that aren't ready are going to get hired.
On-the-job training is so valuable, but college fan bases, administrations and athletic departments and NFL ownership and FO are the least forgiving and most demanding they've ever been. Expectations, at both levels, are to hit the ground running.

Good take.
There's no quick fix for the Browns outside of a capable offensive line and a good, big body WR IMHO.
A new coach would bring hope, maybe a shot of energy, but this offense as constructed isn't going to do much no matter who's calling the plats, etc

I think you will be able to eliminate Arkansas in the search. Bobby Patrino is the interim HC who at one time was a very successful HC for them before personal issues got him fired. Beat Texas weekend after this and he's got the job for sure. They have a capable dual headed running game to do that with too.

If it wasn't for bad luck, the Browns wouldn't have any luck at all.

Except for the Green Bay game. It must have been opposite day in the NFL that day.
Good point!

Special Teams has cost us two games. The opener when the kicker blew the game...and the Jets by giving up two ST TD's. - We have to give some measure of credit to the ST for the miracle against the Packers with the blocked FG and the last second game winning FG though.
We would be one game out of 1st in the division with just those two wins. Of course, the wins wouldn't really matter much because of our offensive weaknesses. We wouldn't be able to parlay those wins into anything...but Stef would be a little safer as HC. And that would mean simply firing the OL coach, hiring Callahan, and laser focusing on OL, WR (and probably QB) in the offseason could go a long way to righting the ship.

Believe it or not, the Special Teams Coordinator Bubba Ventrone is also the Assistant Head Coach.

This is not maybe a popular idea but I think the browns should fold the Cleveland browns name and colors and come out in their shiny new stadium with a new identity that isn't synonymous with failure.
The only thing these players know about the Cleveland browns is that they have kicked the living shit out of them for their entire lives on Madden. They only know a perpetual loser. That's how long it's been. The 80s we're almost 50 years ago.
Reinvent. Come out wearing a different color. Red maybe. There's no red in the division. They can wear the orange and brown as a throwback.

The 0-16 parade made headlines that this organization didn’t like, so let’s do something similar. As bad as this team is just stop going to the games, they are an embarrassment. Let’s parade around the stadium during the game protesting the incompetence of the front office and coaching staff
I'm wondering how many current Browns Board members actually attend the games.
I dropped my season tickets this year, it seemed to me I was the only one going.
