***WILDCARD: Browns AT Steelers Gameday Thread***
-
January 10th, 2021.
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
Weather forecast expects 35ºF (2ºC, 275ºK, 465ºR, some people have weird fetichisms here). A very cloudy sky, but with a 0% chance of precipitation and calm winds.
Perfect weather, if you ask me, considering this is January Football.
And January Football forges a question inside the heart of many players, coaches and fans all around the US - and the World, if you see this humble's writer location. A question that every single American Football fan has made at least once in a lifetime. A question that by the time this game starts, only 8 teams will be able to make themselves.
A question that I make you, fellow Browns fans:
Why not us?
Is it because we have a Front Office that has seen GMs come and go, each one adding a regretful name to an endless list of QB players on a Browns jersey? Is it because Cleveland is one of the two teams that has gone winless an entire season? Is it because the only player that the Browns have had in the Pro Bowl for years was Joe Thomas? Is it because we can only cherish about past times, where Paul Brown would coach this team to victory, Otto Graham lead legendary cast, and Jim Brown run through his rivals?
I tell you. Paul Brown and Otto Graham are dead, and Jim Brown is on a wheelchair.But the question remains the same:
Why not us?
We have a promising Front Office, a thoughtful staff that coaches this team to its strengths, a QB that tear his body if it means leading this team to victory. We can't replicate Jim Brown, but we have the best pair of running backs in the NFL with Nick 'Silent Killer' Chubb and hometown Kareem Hunt. Myles Garrett and Joel Bitonio proving they are the solid Pro Bowlers once Joe Thomas once was. Hometown Denzel Ward is making sure we know his name.
In front of us, the team which has crushed our hopes time and time again the last 20 years. A team we could scarcely win after resting some key players in the season finale.
But make no mistakes. History will not take the field this Sunday Night. Even last week's game is in the past, and any given Sunday, History can be written. And History is best written in January.So I ask you, one last time, dear Browns fans:
WHY NOT US?
GO BROWNS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m listening.
Where is this brick wall we run through tonight?

^ Masked singer?
I loved the Browns fans promo NBC ran a couple times during last nite's game...
The last shot of the woman in the decorated hat with the "Steelers Suck" button on the back was the perfect punctuation mark to it.

LET US CAST AWAY THE DARK MAGIC THAT HAS BEEN BROUGHT UPON THIS ORGANIZATION FOR DECADES. GO BROWINES!

Warm up music going - I'm one of those intense but strangely calm type of minds.
Moment of silence for all the Browns faithful we lost along the way between playoff runs. Can only hope they're enjoying this somewhere great.

This is it boys. We have been waiting 20 years for this moment. Cheers.

Inactives are up...

I’m replicating that D game plan. Bengals were all over the short stuff and they were physical after catches.

Just tuned in pregame on Peacock... looks good and in place of commercials there's a "We'll be right back" screen.
