    I'm not football smart enough to make that call.  🙂

    Of course, people would say,  If it worked then he's a genius.  

    That call on 4th and 9 only could be made with Micharl Vick in his prime or Lamar Jackson as QBs. And even then many of us would argue against it.

    ...with almost any of the coaches that we've had this century.  We've seen a ton.  Bubble screen on 1st and goal from the 1 in OT against the Steelers.  (we lose the game)

    A 63 yard FG att with Devin Hester returning it...TWICE, because there was an 'ice the kicker' time out just before the first woefully short attempt. (honestly, THAT one really got to me.  I mean, here we see the first attempted FG and Hester catches it in the middle of the end zone.  I was like, WHEW, lucky the coach got to see that, now we can punt.  BUT NO, Pettine lets him do it again and Hester ALMOST returned it for a TD.  - remember, all of our guys are 'blocking' at the LOS when the ball is kicked.  The returner catches it with LOTS of space.)

    And who can forget Pat Shurmur, after a big play, lining the guys up quickly and calling a running play with no RB on the field.  The TE Alex Smith jumped into the RB position and promptly fumbled the hand-off because, get this, He never took a hand-off before (he said after the game - and it SURE looked it).

    And last, but not least, with my son & I in the stands, the dumb-ass On Side kick defense.  It was the Josh Gordon game against the Patriots.  Josh kicked their ass.  The Patriots came down the field with the game almost over and scored a TD.  They had to get the onside kick or it was all over.  I'm watching the Patriots special team stroll onto the field, they're taking their time, lining up....and I'm like, Not for nuthin' but where's OUR guys?  I immediately notice that we've got two little huddles going on each side of the field...It's a Trick Onside line-up by the DEFENSE.  ?!?  I said out loud, "WHAT?  He's gonna kick it right up the middle and get it himself."  And sure enough, he kicked it right up the middle and the Patriots recovered and beat us.  - Woody Allen couldn't write this stuff.

    Yup. We've seen some of the dumbest of dumb-ass play calls by our 'brain-trust' this century.  Let's now see how the Polack does it.

    Anyone remember Mo Carthon calling the FB option pass, I believe with Lawrence Vickers attempting to pass? That was classic new-school Browns there.

    Man I feel bad for your kid! I have two younger brothers that don't watch any football and I solely blame that on Browns. Factory of sadness 20 plus years and running.

    I moved here the year while in early elementary school before the team was stolen. I didn't really get into football till a few year after STR . If I had to pinpoint a time probably the 07' team finally got me hooked so no I'm no really familiar with Dante Hall aside from a few Youtube videos. All I've ever known is the factory of sadness besides that one year. My younger brothers they don't even watch football because the Browns have sucked dick for soooo long and are huge Cavs fans. Two generations of fans lost. I'm an anomaly I can't stress that enough

    Fair enough. Thank you for the history, seriously. Could this be the year you experience something other than another year of "factory of sadness?"

    Good thing he added Bucs as a team he supports, because Pats are doomed this season.
