Browns add Harrison Bryant, Andrew Sendejo and Karl Joseph to the COVID-19 reserve list for a total of 9 players

The strategy has not changed since Week 1. Our best defense is not Joe Woods, Ward or even Myles Garrett. It is Run the ball keep the Steelers offense off the field.

That's easier said than done. If the Steelers commit to stopping the run, then they will stop the run. In which case we will have to be able to pass. We've known for almost all of this season that we're going to have to outscore our opponent......and that THAT might mean scoring every time we get the ball.

so.....
last game, squealers -
Ward is out. Sendejo and Joseph are out? Malcome Smith, Taki Taki's backup is out. Taki has an ankle injury, may not be able to play....Phillips and Goodson are out ?
Well, I think the Browns will win anyways - they got their wr's back. If Wills and Teller are back...we're still in the game winning chance.

It’s being reported that the Browns are temporarily shutting down the practice facility.
This is being done after a PS squad player & assistant coach tested positive for the coronavirus today.

Wednesday night 12-31 - We know that the Steelers are resting players -but-. teams can lose games if the covid-19 thing goes too much farther (remember the jet's last week).
I'm kinda surprised that the line opened around CLE -4 and went to -10 now about -9 ...... well maybe not we'll see Sunday at 1 pm.
And now all the lines from our friends at Vegas insider...... https://www.vegasinsider.com/nfl/odds/las-vegas/?s=856

Denzel Ward tests positive for COVID-19; will miss finale and possibly a playoff game as Jarvis Landry, 4 others return

I really like Ward, but the kid cannot be depended upon to actually be on the field when you need him.

Covid is not a physical injury- it's plain bad luck. Tell that to the Dolphins who won't have Fitzpatrick for the same problem. Or the Falcons without Mack.

As of now, Baker will have his entire compliment of WRs for the game. Stay healthy my friends, stay healthy.

True.
Now Hospital Ward doesn't even have luck on his side. We need to replace him.
He is a nice player when he plays, but that's the problem, he doesn't play.
If everybody had like minds, we would never learn. -

This game has all the makings of a gigantic cluster chicken. All our players need to stay the EFF home and not see ANYBODY. Put them in an effing hotel and just isolate the shit out of everyone.

The Browns would find a way to get them into something called Hotel California, a.k.a. Hotel Covid.??

These issues are going to be magnified 10 times when it comes to the playoffs. What is a Rodgers or Mahomes or Russel Wilson, or maybe Derrick Henry or Aaron Donald etc.....major stars contract it during the playoffs?

I wasn't even letting my mind get to that point. I mean, losing our #1 CB is freaking impactful as hell, but losing a QB totally changes the entire landscape of the game, and when you work all effing season just to get to the playoffs...I don't know...I really don't. I'm hoping the NFL is going to be flexible because I can't imagine the absolute anger I'd feel if the Browns somehow made it to their first playoff game in 17 years only to have Baker Mayfield out sick.
I'm not sure we're going to win Sunday, but I think we have a pretty good chance. My problem with the Steelers is their scheme, as much as their players. That being said, the Ravens have a somewhat similar scheme and Baker looked much better the second time against them. I hear people giving Mason Rudolph a bunch of shit, but the truth is, we're going to HAVE score points Sunday. Our defense is not going to keep people out of the end zone. It honestly would not surprise me if we got down early again and then stormed back to win.
Our running game is a bit busted right now. Now, some (or a lot) of this is due to Teller's injury, but that's not the entire story. Teams have been selling out against the run and essentially forcing us to pass. Baker will tear apart inferior defenses, but against better ones it's going to be a struggle. This is where we feel the absence of OBJ the most. We have NOBODY else that can get deep and bust a long one. That means defenses can continue to compress the field with little worry of anything going over the top.
How did Baker rip up the Ravens? Some of it has to do with Baker just making plays (Higgins TD on 4th was balls out) and some of it was the offensive scheme, but a good portion had to do with using Kareem Hunt out of the backfield. Yes, we get our WRs back (hopefully) Sunday, but Hunt is probably going to be a leader in receptions and total yards. He's a weapon and I'm betting we go to him early and often to take some pressure off Bake.

Tex will tell you a Hotel is usually a bad idea. Though 2nd hand info the NFL thinks most of these cases were picked up outside of the facility.

Har, har. What will they do if a team is minus 4 WRs (the Browns) or minus all their roster QBs (Denver)? The Ratbirds had 1\2 their starters out for a game. Its already happened. Play on?
It's a joke of a season Gipper.

I am worried with Ward out, just how many of Pittsburg's top WRs Tomlin is going to trot out there against a depleted Browns secondary Tour. It could be bad, very bad.

Obviously I worry, lol. We're in the middle of a global pandemic, our state is totally a hotbed of infection, we've lost multiple starters from our team this month, AND we've had multiple facility shutdowns...this WEEK. He can't say that I'm some sort of irrational crackpot, lol. Oh, and we're playing a team that essentially beats us like 90% of the time.
Now, I still think we have the better team with Pittsburgh resting their studs, but I'd hate to bet money on it. I think if we score, we win. And I can't wait!
