    2020 can officially kiss my ass. 

    Here's what I can tell you. If we win without Myles, we can accomplish anything. 

    2020 also kissed you on the lips with a 6-3 start.  You don't see a Wiley Coyote in charge of our offensive or defensive attack any more. And that's a good thing.

    The difference between 2019 and 2020 is we aren't losing Myles Garrett for the rest of the season.  We're losing him for 1-2 games against opponents we can still beat.

    Let's just take this thing 1 week at a time like we've been doing...

    I kind of thought about this yesterday and had the realization that at least it wasn't for the rest of the year. The reason it FEELS that way is because we're in the middle of a historically tight playoff race. I believe I heard there are more 6-3 teams now than ever before. That's nuts, lol. 

    I believe there are two scenarios, and really it's just a gut feeling. We either barely lose, or blow them out. We really haven't blown anyone out yet and we could be due. 

  • Browns to use several players to replace Myles Garrett

    ...great!  That must mean they're letting us play with 13 or more defenders.

    LOL !!!

    Adrian Clayborn and Porter Gustin .

    Clayborn is no slouch 7th rounder - should be intriguing to watch him play a good bit at DE. Was a star in college:

    It's said he is only a situational guy - a serious force on pass rushes. (I love the play where he blocks a punt in college)

  • should also be intriguing to watch Gustin play at DE.

    I never heard of the guy til the Browns signed him.

    Who Is Cleveland Browns DE Porter Gustin? (Where He Came From)

    Interesting - his workout plan back at USC

  • was also a star in college:

  • so, the defense will be just fine. I hope to keep track of the times Clayborn and Justin make plays.

    Losing Myles is a killer, no way around it. What we need to hope for now is for Carson Wentz to beat himself, and that could definitely happen. Wentz has been unbelievably inaccurate this year and is rated the absolute worst in accuracy from throwing in a clean pocket.

    The last time the Browns won 10 games in the regular season (2007), they did not make the playoffs.  That defense was kind of like this one in the sense that it didn't rank really high anywhere except in getting turnovers if this old man's memory is correct.  On the other hand, we made the playoffs with an 8-8 record in 1985.  Also keep in mind, there's been teams that have made the playoffs that didn't even win 8 regular season games (ie; Seattle) while something like that could happen in the NFC East this year.

    I don't know many people remember what took place in 2007; but it was the year Cleveland drafted Joe Thomas at #3 overall.  A great part of his learning curve was he had a veteran LG next to him (Eric Steinbach).  In addition, we had a very crafty veteran at Center (Hank Fraley) who could still pull and make all the OL calls.  Considering Philly had written him off as a starter 1-2 years earlier - that became a very underrated solution to the loss of LeCharles Bentley.  We ended up getting 1304 rushing yards and 9 TDs (+ 30 rec 248 rec yards and 2 TD rec)out of Jamal Lewis that year.

    I remember everything about that year. I remember losing to a bad Bengals team to secure our playoff berth and then having to root for the Colts' backup QB to beat the Titans. That didn't go well. 

    I also remember Winslow making one of the best catches I've ever seen against the Cardinals and us not getting the "push out" rule touchdown. It was nuts. ?

    Just like the Browns defense was just fine last season for the last six games without Myles? 

  • My late father was a huge Shelton Richardson fan coming into the draft of 2013.(Yep! he was pist to hear MingOh! before Shelton!).. Play one for PoP's today Shelton!

    Shelton Richardson, who turns 30 on Nov. 29, has started 111 career games, just two at end. Both of those came for the Browns in 2019 when Garrett was serving a six-game league suspension to end the season. Richardson recorded three sacks in those two games, two against the Miami Dolphins and one against the Cincinnati Bengals, while also totaling 12 tackles and a pass defensed.  (The rest of the story?) https://www.beaconjournal.com/story/sports/pro/browns/2020/11/20/cleveland-browns-lb-mack-wilson-back-practice-prepares-eagles/3768886001/   

    I smell something different coming?.. Regardless, Ogun needs a huge day.. I see Vincent Taylor & Jordan Elliott seeing increased DT reps.. Not saying Clayborn nor Gustin won't get their chances early? But they'd better show up early in the 1st half...

    Get Doug Peterson down 2 scores early? He'll panic into Wentz throwing this game away.. Eagles get up 2 scores early? Baker will panic with Eagles pass rush...  No reason to change away from the offices of Chubb & Hunt both seeing another 100 yard game..Run Chubby Run! Dink Hunt quick & Often to keep Baker clean.. 

    What we can't do today? a)Turn the ball over nor b.)not win time of possession.  Team whom Moves the chains & wear down the defense wins... If our defense gets stuck out there?... It will be a L O N G afternoon fella's

    Browns- 26 Iggys- 18... Ward/Harrison 1 pick each... Chubb scores a long run late to win this game.. Like Garrett? The football gods have odd ways of getting EVEN... 

      call it all crazy..before... we All go IN-sane... ?

    (chalk this post up? as one of those clicks that ya may want to take back) ?  don't we all have those? 

  • Browns D showed really well without Myles there. Never thought that could happen.

    Never a doubt from me! < Alright, so there's a little pink in that font, but I fully expected the next men up to do their jobs and they all did. 

    The entire defense has been fun to watch lately that's for sure.

    Browns had a waiver claim on Takk McKinley. The Bengals waived him because he failed his physical, then the 49ers did the same.  He was playing for the Falcons but did have a groin issue this season. Wonder what the issue is. I’d imagine if it was something serious the Falcons wouldn’t have been allowed to cut him.....It’s to late now to bring him in for this game, but I wonder if the Browns will bring him in and check him out for next week if Myles can’t go again.... guy has been pretty disappointing for a 1st rounder but change of scenery can help that (Carlos Dunlap style)

    Was their claim successful? Is he now on our roster?

    Sorry, this one flew under the Radar. 
     

    So they had a wavier claim in, the Bengals had one as well as the 49ers and Raiders.

    Bengals brought them in, he fail the physical so they waived him.

    same with the 49ers. 
     

    I think it falls to the Browns if they want to bring him in. It’s confusing how he failed a physical for two teams. He did have a groin issue earlier in the year but he was playing for the Falcons before they cut him.

    Sendajo is still absolute dog shit. Hope Harrison is ok.

    Let's all pray the Browns pull their claim. They need a headcase on defense like a hole in the head.

    Ya, I don’t know. Seems like a no risk situation. 
     

    After reading more about it though, I guess he was out the two previous games for the Falcons for that groin injury. I’m not sure how they were allowed to cut him if he was injuried. I didn’t think that was allowed

He would have loved today! 

    (dad) We saw a veteran DT named Shelton Richardson.. Take a mic ?. Veteran leading this defense earlier in the week. Pleading for teammates to make a name for themselves with your new opts.. I can only start with the play of O. Vernon today.. It also took this quiet veteran to shine today too.. Wow did he play hard! We'll need *that version of Vernon the rest of the way..

    (me)- "drop the mic ? now Pops"?  (Dad)- "No" I got more, let me tell you" ?

    (dad?) Ever heard of our DE from our PS we brought up yesterday? Cameron Malveaux.. Well Joe Woods must have known what he was receiving from San Fran.. Go Have a Day for yourself young  Mal'! ?..  2 tackles & the forced fumble in the red-zone to keep Philly from the early lead..      Big Shelton would like to see you in his office ?  Welcome Cameron!

    (me) ? "Got More?"... (Dad) ? "well damn son, I'm just getting started" ?  

    Next Up?  (dad?) We hit Carson Wentz 10 times.. Denzel Ward caused the floater that Taki Housed. Housed? They're all Great Plays. ?      Vernon sacked Wentz 3 times.. My daddy Shelton Richardson smacked Wentz twice more & had 4 tackles, but was scary good all day today. Run plays or scaring Wentz off his spots all day, Richardson was.. ? 

    Oh Yeah, That other guy that made a name? ?

    (me) ? yes Pops, bring it, post ending.. (Dad) ? your damn skippy I will ? 

    Adrian Clayborn..step right up & welcome to The Land ya damn old hippy ?. 3 tackles. 1.5 sacks (.5 to Ogun) 2 QB hits & another huge forced fumble to Clayborn's credit...

    the Dad mic Drop ?

    Dad would have turned 85 years young today ?....  He would have been no prouder than what "his man" Shelton Richardson brought all game week.. Special thanks to Shelton & our Cleveland Browns for making this a real special day for this kid

    (me)? Love ya, Dad... we got our victory phone call in on your day.. You did so well? Happy Birthday!

    In closing.. Get Well Myles Garrett!!  This defense had your back today!
