    That's one of the hopes I'm already clinging to. Need to keep that offense in the bench. 

  • It's been a long time coming! 

    Been following the browns from afar (uk) for a while but started watching them at the beginning of the kizer season. Unrecognisable from that shit show to last night. I couldn't watch it live last night, got a 3 yr old who has not been sleeping great, and work at 6am this morning. I woke at 4.24am and looked at my phone.....a smile as wide as the atlantic!

    I liked the lack of celebration from the players after the game, as if to say....'we got the job done, who's next' 

    Browns is the browns ?

    Don't be a stranger. 

  • all, been a weird crazy month for me (all good, turns out having a baby turning one a week before christmas makes that time of year hectic haha). 

    As a typical frequent poster I just want to say I love you crazy bastards. The raw emotion of our fans (me included) today is incredible. If Ohio State manages to win tonight it legit might be the best two days of sports life. I'm just in shock of yesterday, would have never guessed that in a million years. 

    Oh, and seeing Big Rapist crying like Forrest Gump on the bench while browns players were barking "same old browns" is giving me life for weeks.

    Let's not make the same mistake that doomed the Titans. They tried to win the game with Henry running into a stacked 8 in the box Ratbird defense selling out to stop the run.

    If it's not working, try something else.

  • Well ladies and gents, this one might be over. I don't know how the steelers recover. It's the first time in my life I've been inclined to turn the game off and do something else. Good luck in the next round. 2020.5

    I went downstairs and packed a bowl full of some of the Devils lettuce and plowed through it on the back porch.

    Juju winked when he said that but the media ran with it. He certainly didn't struggle yesterday. Enjoy your win today but the steelers aren't going anywhere and juju wasn't being serious.

    So much for a 28 point lead... Do you think they should have challenged that 4th down spot?

    Booth review under 2 mins????

    @sdbacker80 said:

    Yup...

    Tavern talk was about doing what McDermott did in BUF earlier Sunday... calling a TO to give booth more time to review the play.

  • I don't think some of you realize just how much yesterday was about certain things coming to fruition and not the Browns being "superior"

     Pouncey hasn't been "good" for a while and villanueva has always been overrated. The teams decision to start feiler over dotson was also ill-advised as dotson is better.  Shit happens, the Browns played well but this wasn't a "oh my God, we got owned" as much as it was the end of the line for some in the black and gold. Go back to that first snap. Again not trying to rain on parades. Enjoy your win.

    I have the penguins. I don't get too down about the steelers because of how the organization is run. My offseason will be just fine.  Try not to get your ass pegged by the chiefs. ?

    As was commented in the post game I watched (I think it was Jeff Saturday on ESPN's Rewind) your OL does now look old, but that was not the case for 10 games, so what happened?

    Also interested in your take on Ben.

    Mine is that his tear was the crush of disappointment, but not simply for the loss itself, but that it ended his run to a SB-bookend to his career. I think that he wanted (and even expected) to go out the way he came in... on top with a ring.

    Last nite he realized that to fulfill that dream he has to come back for another "one more year", but that he's to longer sure he's on a team that can build him that bookend.

    There's no doubt in my mind he can still play at a high level... not close to his peak, but still plenty high enough... but I've plenty of doubt about whether he played this season for the right reasons or will do so in the future.

    There's real sadness.. and more than a little age... in that left eye.

    The steelers have a really bad loyalty problem. Feiler should have never started over dotson who has been a fucking monster all season when he plays. He's going to be terrific. Pouncey and villanueva need to go so once they are gone and replaced with likely a first round rookie and bumping Feiler out the line should be just fine. I like chuks even tho he hasn't been as good as dotson and decastro is smart and will be fine too despite imo not being healthy when he returned the last stretch. We also get banner back. 

    I'm also not worried about Ben unless randy sticks around. Randy is a fucking anchor and a terrible coordinator. I expect Ben for one more but I hope it's with a different oc, I just doubt it will be. He still makes ridiculous throws, the arm is still there but he was definitely sailing stuff AND we had a major drops problem that can't fall on Ben.

    Other than the obvious I think he's emotional because I believe pouncey is retiring and for me despite his high level play for a long time, good fucking riddance. He's a giant trumpanzee and he's been downright bad for a while. He made pro bowls lately on popularity and our giant fan base. 

    Villanueva also thinks he's bigger than the team with his anthem antics and he's been bad too. I won't miss either. Ben will miss pouncey tho and I think that's why he's crying other than losing and Approaching the end of the road. We will see how badly he wants to win with how he approaches this season and seasons moving forward if that's even on the table.
