    Jesus Christ....when are you people going to get it through your head that Mack left on his own. He WAS NEVER SIGNING WITH THE BROWNS!!! He was offered the same money to stay here and he turned it down and signed in Atlanta. Get it through your fucking head there was no chance he was staying here. He wanted out 2 seasons ago. Christ.....its not that difficult of a concept to understand.

      Coleman was very good, Pryor was ok and the team played hard. Other than that pretty much the same 0-2 but at least we should have a winnable game next week.

      Oh, I disagree with that. Our linebacker play is far improved and the run defense is far superior to last year.

        Sorry guys pissed off and drunk after our loss didn't expect to get jumped on like that.

        I tailgated, was jacked up after scoring 3 TDs in a row - then we blew it in spectacular fashion

          Yep, a good, tough entertaining game where the team looked improved from the week before. Still not good enough, but it's about what I expected this year as the young kids learn on the fly.

          Definitely looked better than last week...which is an improvement.....excepting Coleman, the vets made most of the plays tho....rookies were fairly weak this week...

          Right.....watching the first quarter, it was almost all plays by McCown, Crow, Barny, Hawkins $ Duke moving that team down field....and big plays on D by Davis and Haden and Kirksey that were setting the tone......which is why I wish we had just signed a couple/few more competent vets to throw into the mix.....still wouldve been plenty of opps for the rookies and, with a decent line, we could actually win a few....

          Run D did look a lil better this week.....far superior?....no way......

          Linebackers are a smidge better, simply because Kruger is gone and Kirksey has stepped it up another notch.....Schubert and Ogbah are not lighting it up tho, so to me, the OLB's are not superior to what the other guys (Orchard, Kruger, Mingo) brought...at least not yet...

            Flacco could throw it at will on us today if it wasn't for dropped passes this game wouldn't have been close.

            Philly was 4.6 ypc against us and today was Terrance West and Justin Forsett.

              Right....Pitta ate our LB's and safetys alive....

              Kindred might be a good tackler, but that old broken man(Pitta) took him to school today on coverage.....

                  But they're still out there, under game day pressure, learning under fire and that can only forge them quicker, or reveal that they can't handle too. Either way, players get better playing in games, not watching from the sidelines.

                                    Someone needs to realize that maybe it isn't the kicker!

                                    I mean the guy game in on the left side untouched.

                                    Well...Cam Erving must have had a big game!!!....cause I kept hearing his name...over and over....which is uber rare for a center......

                                    He was taken out of the locker room on a stretcher after the game. Apparently something with his ribs/back that he missed up early in the game.

                                      I'm surprised by the comments on defending the run and our linebackers. Short term memory? Do you not remember our inability to set the edge and those 150+ rushing yards against us last year? But I'm not a football guru so can someone look up the ave. and rank vs. last year.

                                        The pass rush has to improve, hell Flacco had all day to throw with a 3 or 4 man rush.

                                        He had all day with a 5 or 6 or 7 man rush as well

                                        I can't believe the ratbirds oline didn't get at least 9 flagrant oling holding calls.

                                        that apparently isn't a flag this year. At least not for the better teams in the nfl.

                                        I mean, look at the helmet to helmet hits on Cam Newton vs Denver.

                                        No ejections.

                                          To be fair, he missed a 52 yard field goal. If anything sucks its our field goal protection.

                                          only problem with coon was his long range attempts

                                          don't remember him having a problem with pat's
