  • Lewis!! Cameron looked good on that cross and run, too. Fast for a big guy

  • Lewis looks like he could be an impact scat back player. Looking great so far! Let's see what the backups got now.

  • FIRST 2013 BROWNS TOUCHDOWN!!!!

    Best preseason start since pre '99. Now we get to check out the guys fighting for a roster spot.

    While preseason is not a good predictor for regular season wins, it really shows which teams are more polished. The Browns are NOT looking sloppy, very good start which is a good indicator of what chud has going on in camp.

    Welcome, and indeed, thank you for your Service πŸ™‚

  • Man that first quarter went fast

  • Weeden's not looking too bad, but I saw him staring down his Receivers . . . needs to work on that.

    Defense is not overly impressing me so far.

  • Nice return!!!!!!!!! Man this is enjoyable

  • Damn Benjamin made that look easy! I dont even think he hit full speed!

  • well i guess the tavern ISN'T open tonite.

    guess i'll catch the 15 second highlights on sports center.

  • Couldn't ask for a better start to our team's season. Agree Weeden was staring down guys a few plays, but they seemed to be on short precise routes.

  • Well the D still needs to gel I guess. But the O looks great even without TRich.

    It is ESPN so anything west of NY or Boston is fortunate to get anything more than a mention

    To be fair that was all the Rams starters against our second team defense. Not too much of a fair assumption.

    To also be fair they tore up Trevin Wade (60 yarder and the touchdown), rest of the second team didnt look too bad.

    Well to be fair I don't make excuses. They drove right down the field on the drive before that also. But luckily the Browns pulled a turnover to get the stop.

    If you expect a full team of 2nd string players to look amazing in the first pre-season game against a 1st team offense idk what to tell you.

  • Sorry Tavern is not working for most, i will tinker with it before next game and see what the hell the problem is.

    I was taking an exam tonight and just checked in, glad to see we are looking pretty good so far.

    well then educate me (no, really don't) because all that the rest of the nation saw mayor white yellin into microphones how the city of cleveland will not be held hostage by the owner of a nfl team that wants a new stadium.

    maybe i was drunk and didn't see that on espn, nbc, abc, cbs, cnn etc. etc.

    that sure as hell sounded like a threat to me.

    and BTW any team modell fielded would kick the living shit out what we have had since he left. yeah maybe he only won one title, but they won championship games, division games and they were a whole hell of a lot more entertaining that what i even seen in one game since 1999. so yeah FUCK MODELL for ulimately making the decision to leave but FUCK CLEVELAND for letting it get that far.

    here's to banner (hopefully) changing that.

    No, I am not going to educate you....unless you want to pay me for my time.

    As far as Modell doing better than what we have had since? Sure. Any idjit can see that.

    But, the fact still remains that during his 35 year tenure with the Browns, they played in exactly 2 championship game...going 1-1 back to back in 1964-1965. (In other words, none, zero, zip, nil, in his last 30 years here) Overall record during his tenure was pretty good: 278-233-6.

    But, the point you forget is that: A. Modell VOLUNTARILY opted out of the Gateway Project, and. B. He ran and controlled the stadium...and ran it into the ground. C. The ideas that the City went along with to improve the stadium situation were ALL Modell's ideas, and D. the vote to improve the stadium occurred the day after he said he was trying to leave.

    And, by the way...YES, I do believe you were drunk....because never, ever did I ever hear Mike White say that he would not have the city held hostage to an owner that owned a new stadium.

    The next time I hear that stated will be the first time I will have heard that stated.

    Find the video, or the newspaper quote where that occurred....because I never heard it ever...and I lived here in the Cleveland area where this situation was on the news all the time.

    (no doubt White had some choice words about Modell....after his announcement...but Never before. They were having day to day negotiations all along...until Modell sneaked off to Baltimore in Lerner's plane)

    Technically they played in at least five championship games. The AFC championship game is a championship game. It says so right in it's title: "AFC championship game"

  • Preseason protocol. Don't want the starters to get hurt now

    Idiot protocol. If guys are that fucking frasgile to get hurt in teh 4 game preseason, they why the fuck ever play them at all? Play the hit players until they all get hurt, and then bring the first team in around game 13. That way they won't have such a high probability of getting hurt.

    Dumbest fucking philosophy ever.

    Teams with guys like Brady, Ben, AJ Gren, James Harrison, that is to say, proven, superstars don't need to be played, but not for injury concerns, they can it back and let the young guys get seasoning.

    But our team blows Honey Boo Boo ass. Play em!

    Cinci looked great. All three offnsive units and QBs were banging on all cylinders.
