  • Anyone all pumped up for the next meaningless apology from the NFL?

    This team is 3-1 but the NFL wants us 1-2-1 so that's what we are.

    Yep, the Raiders and Gruden at 0-4 is bad for business. Just like WWE.... just a scripted "sport". The current NFL is unwatchable

  • Also, I wasn't checking on the tavern at that moment, but the Carr fumble 'he's-not-a-runner-but-let's-call-it-forward-progress'' is stupid AF.

    But isn't an up and coming underdog Browns team led by a charismatic young QB good?

  • This league is an epic waste of time...

  • NFL has been ruined.

    that was definitely sketchy and looked like textbook refs vegas odds fixing.

  • If a person can watch that game and honestly say the nfl is not actually trying to stifle the Browns your crazy.  Things are only going to change when the browns get a fare shake

  • Was I seeing things, or was there 1:40 left on the clock after Hyde's first down run, then 1:41 after his second down run.

  • Agree. Let's revisit the Overtime session...

    • 1st down: blow to the head on baker, no call
    • 2nd down: roughing flag on Oakland, picked up and no call after "discussion"
    • 3rd down: pass interference on Oak, no call AGAIN

    I swear there's a memo out there in the league office stating

    Dear Head of Officiating- 

    The fans of Cleveland got their team, name and colors back. That is plenty. There are to be no official calls or replay reviews that benefit that franchise moving forward.

    Sincerely,

  • The refs did everything humanely possible to ensure a raiders victory and succeedded...

  • My question is what is haslam going to do about it.  Someone’s head at the nfl offices has to roll this is beyond acceptable.  Haslam needs to take this as far as he can and get the loss vacated 

  • Agreed.  That was a first down.  That fking referee Shmucked us.

    don't know bout you,,,,,but i didn't see any replay with an elbow down before the first down marker.....however there is usually more than one angle on replays...maybe we did not get that shot and the refs did...but what i saw was a Shmucking first down....even blandino the ref guru was calling it a first down.....we also got Shmucked on a defensive td.....what the Shmuck was that...no way was carr in the grasp....football is getting so Shmucked up and it's the refs that are causing it....they should not get paid one Shmucking cent for the way some of these calls are being made...not just this game but other games to...

    Haslam is lucky he is still an owner after the legal problems, he cant do Sheet

  • Kinda strange the Oakland covers the spread and are moving to Las Vegas

    And let's not be forgetting about the totally completely obvious two fistfuls of Schoberts jersey grabbed by the RT on Lynch's first down run. No flag.  I have truly never seen anything like this.  It's just total Shmucking outer limits.

  • I thought if anything the replay showed even more clearly that Hyde had made the first down. I couldn't believe that got overturned in the booth. The game should have been over and never gone into OT. 

  • If this was any other team is there anyone that can sit here and tell me that would have been over turned
