    The nay-sayers may not sound good, but they seem to be on the mark so far from what I've seen.

    I'm not inclined to give credit to those who give up on the team before the team gives up on a game...

    We've beat the Saints, who look to be bad this year, and the Titans.

    Our D looks worse now than it did earlier this year.

    On the plus side, Hoyer's doing what I expected - we need to keep him.

    Our WR's, who'd have guessed?

    Gabriel is ballin' for a UDFA.

    Our Run game is far better than I expected or even hoped for.

    Bitonio has been amazing for a Rookie.

    I'm not going to give our D a pass, too much talent to be playing as awful as they have.

    No Run D, and horrid Pass Rush.

    I'm not buying their shit anymore that we're going to have this all amazing Defense - been hearing it for years now.

    Sorry Tour2ma, not going off on you, just sick of the BS.

  • some truth about playing to the level of our competition. certainly the case first half...but second half featured a potent offense and a regrouped D that dominated

    what the fuck is not to like?

    Im still here, and this coaching staff sucks Shanny is the only one getting his monies worth

    Bullshit. We won.

    Beer goggles, yeah we won but our D ranking is now worse than when the game started

  • hold on...i was in the tavern earlier and everyone was crying and whining about how bad the browns were going to lose....i got a list here of all the bitches i said i would come back from the bar and scream at when the browns would win.....

    walterwhite: go fuck yourself

    everybody else...you know who you are.

    Give a fuck about our D ranking as long as we win.

    No problem, J... we'll always have our boy Hoyer... πŸ˜‰

    Add to your post that we also lost to a bad Steeler team and a "???" Ravens team. But we were in those games as well.

    I'm not singing our D's praises by a long shot, but today they were good enough for a half. And so was our Offense...

    Also notice that no one is saying shit about Cundiff or ST's in general... even though we won due to a blocked punt Safety...

  • Okay I don't want to make a new thread but serious question: do you think the Kirksey hit on Locker was dirty? It looked bad live, but I watched the gif about 10 times now.

    http://cdn2.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/2325926/lockerhead.0.gif

    If it was a true slide into the endzone, I'd say dirty hit 100%. Kirksey is seemingly in his hit motion though as Jake's body gets lined up by the grab of Gipson. Do I think he was going for a huge hit? Yes, but I don't think he should be fined for it. I'm sure he will though.

  • It looked to me like he purposely put his forearm under his neck.

  • Pay the Man!!!

    Ya, Hoyer is a good dude. He plays his heart out every game. JFF will just have to sit for awhile and learn. Best of both worlds.

  • I told you in the tavern...ill be back in the THIRD for THE COMEBACK!! Just have to have a little faith. There is NO QUIT in this team!!!!

  • I texted to local friends that these are Kardiac Kids II. What is troublesome is a pattern of the D starting poorly, then turning it around at halftime. Is it poor initial game planning, poor D play calling, Team too "high" initially, lack of focus/fundamentals?

    What you CANNOT take away from this Team is that they NEVER quit! EVER!

    Mike

    ps: I'm damn near 68...no heart attacks YET, but after today I'm getting closer! LOL

  • dirty or not it wasn't our QB so nice fucking hit!!!!

    Have to admit though, I was a bit nervous when the PAT Team came in 😁

    But, yeah, ST on the Block was nice and definitely came at the right time.

  • It would be nice if this team could be a little more consistent. Thank god we can get by without JG though

  • 1. The Browns used to lose a yard or two most of the time

    they tried to run the ball.

    Now, they kick ass in the runnng game.

    They used to not be able to pass protect at all, at least on the whole right side.

    Now, they kick ass in the pass protection dept most of the time.

    2. (edit) I forgot #2 is about Kirksey. When the qb is running, he's fair game to

    clobber to stop him, and Kirksey's elbow went to Locker's upper chest, and slide

    into his facemask. At first glance, I thought it was just at the goal line.

    If he'd meant to hit him in the helmet, he sure the heyl could have done just

    that, blatantly.

    3. The defense... like Bob Golic said, isn't playing aggressive in the first half.

    Fix that.

    4. I used to be able to "know" what the Browns offense was going to run. Now, I haven't a clue, ever....

    maybe they run too much on first down, and defenses are seeing it.... but hell, this offense

    can play with anybody.

    5. This team never gives up, and they are going to get better every week.

    6. The new rules are screwing up cb's all over the league. wr's pushing off - good for more points scored ...

    now, the cb's are getting screwed over on that deal.

    7. I wish somebody would duct tape that Chuck guy's mouth after stuffing it with rotten hay. I want to

    hear Kosar, Golic and Dixon talk about football, not this diarrea mouth idiot on the far right, on

    the Browns shows... please, let's start a "shut Chuck up" petition. I will walk a mile to sign it.

    Hell, I'll walk two miles to sign it....

    8. The Browns won after ,again, playing like they aren't ready for primetime in the regular season yet.

    What's up with that?

    9. Tennessee has a ton of really solid talent. All the bitching about them being a pushover blah blah...

    give the rest of us a freakin break. The Browns have issues, but being unable to move the ball on offense

    is NOT one of them, FINALLY. And, the defense can kick ass, but they don't until the second half...... see #8.

    10. I'm freakin PROUD of this football team. They are a different team, a far better team, they just don't

    have it all together yet. You just wait til they get rolling in the first halves of games...which , hopefully,

    is the next game....

  • I texted to local friends that these are Kardiac Kids II. What is troublesome is a pattern of the D starting poorly, then turning it around at halftime. Is it poor initial game planning, poor D play calling, Team too "high" initially, lack of focus/fundamentals?

    What you CANNOT take away from this Team is that they NEVER quit! EVER!

    Mike

    ps: I'm damn near 68...no heart attacks YET, but after today I'm getting closer! LOL

    The D came out looking totally unprepared to play - I just don't understand what's going on there.

    We gave up 410yds and 4 TD's in a row . . .

    I've been looking at the stats for this game, and I still don't know how we won this game.

  • Our glaring defensive problems are limited to one aspect of the game. It's not that we take the first half off as it seems, but that we don't play situational defense. Our problems are specific to third down. If we keep playing defense on third down like it's late in the fourth quarter and we're up by twenty points we're gonna fail nine out of ten times. We need to blitz and play bump and run. You can't touch a receiver beyond five yards so we need to take advantage of the rules and start sticking receivers at the line of scrimmage and get the qb out of rhythm with the receivers. We play too soft on third down in the secondary worrying about the ticky tack penalties. Start hitting people in the mouth when it's legal (inside of five yards)and our defensive woes will fix themselves. Then maybe,just maybe we can get into the fourth quarter with a decent lead.

  • 98% of you dudes were caving in on your faith for the browns in the tavern.

    y'all owe me drinks.
