This Win Doesn't Even Feel Good

    At that temperature with that wind, it feels like it's below freezing, and instead of snowing, the water remains a liquid which makes you colder and less responsive. The weather was a huge factor in this game. In my opinion, this was the worst weather we've had since the snow bowl against buffalo.

  • @soju Why don't you stop watching them? The defense held Rivers to two field goals. Helluva defensive effort. T-Rich ran for over 100 with a TD. Sure, there weren't tons of aerial fireworks but it was windy and rainy all game. How the hell do you think teams win in this type of weather? You run the ball. Which we did. Why don't you take this "hollow" win and blow it out your ass.

    Fuck yeah man, against a defense that was giving up 70 yards and 3.5 average a game. 120 yards 5 ypc.

    Or we can be realistic and actually talk about what happened.

    This season wasn't about the playoffs, it was about progressing as a team and we didn't see much progression out of anyone but Richardson.

    The defense was getting scorched by the run and really had no answer for it, San Diego beat themselves.

    Our team needs to be happy they won, but also they need to know that they can't win playing like this every week.

  • Yup... pure AFCN, bad-weather ugly... but there were positives which I will not waste on this thread..

    Agreed. Unfortunately, a bunch of these idiots squat in someone's basement for free so they were unable to see the weather outside. The game was a battle of who was tougher, and who do you think would be tougher between a Cleveland guy and a Cali bro? Give me a break.

    it was a sloppy win but a win is a win!! A young team learning how to win a close game.

    I am sure on some of our close losses other teams came away with the same thing.

  • A win is a win...

  • Hey asshole OP, remember this game?

    Pretty sure the Steelers went to the playoffs that year. Don't think anyone was complaining about their regression that week.

  • San Diego averaged 25 points a game coming into today and we held them to two field goals. And thats with an offense that had about 5 three in outs and punted like 10 times in a row. Billy Winn and John Hugh's play pretty much the entire game because Rubin and Taylor are out, of course there going to get tired and give up some yards. Get your head out of your ass, that was a hell of a defensive effort.

    Hell of a defensive effort? Like when Meachem dropped a wide open TD? Or when Matthews was gutting our defense in the 2nd half? Or maybe when WR's were finding holes in our zone and camping for first down after first down?

    Get real, we were flawed all around.

    I'm happy we won, I'd always rather win than lose, but we played miserable.

    Like when we gave up 6 points, if, ands and buts get the fuck outta here

  • You and soju are miserable. I was really proud of the tenacity the Browns played with. And happy with a win!

  • Man, we Browns fans should thank whomever it is we pray to for any win. 😉 Thank you Jebus!!

  • I was there and the weather was WAY WAY WAY worse then it looked on TV. We went into on of the bars at the stadium and watching the game on the TV made it look like a noce autumn day. WHUCH IT WAS NOT. The wind was howling and the rain was coming down sideways. SO to win in those conditions was AWESOME

    We were lucky to only give up 6 points, because watching the defense play was miserable.

    Sure we won, that doesn't change the fact we need to improve. If you think we can keep playing like this and win against better teams like the Steelers and Ravens then you're not gonna like it when they feed us our asses on a plate.

  • I live 100 miles inland from the north coast and it was brutal here this afternoon. Can only imagine how miserable it was in CBS.

    The Brownss hung tough and found a way to win. defense tormented cybaby Rivers all day and the oline played well against

    statistically one of the best run defenses in the league,( however they were certainly exposed today).

    The SoCal boys know how to party but they can't hang with the dogs on the north coast. Nice win Browns!!! 2-1 last three games and

    the motors are starting to rev.

    I disagree. I think this was progress. In the past they would have found a way to lose this game. Instead we were able to hold on for the win. Learning to win is very important to this team. I would imagine that even the players feel snake bit at times.

    I agree. I was thinking that SD was going to get into FG range at the end. But the defense held and we won

  • We all did, the entire game I was asking myself how we were gonna lose this one.

    We did hang on, with a little help from SD lol. That linemen who made the false start must feel terrible
