  • I have to admit if they would have won it would be one for the ages. We'd be telling our grandkids about it.

  • And there would be assclowns on here complaining that by winning it was hurting the draft position. It would've been an epic game to win with a rookie 3rd string QB and it looked pretty dismal down 11 early in the 4th but this team doesn't quit and despite it not being all that talented at this point, it somehow manages to stay in the game and it was a game they should've won if they had a guy who can kick.

  • What is amazing is that they tend to look better each game in spite of loosing key players each week. Kudos to the Players never say die attitudes & also to Hue & his Staff who seem to thrive on dealing with adversity. I'm proud of the effort....Now let's bring on Robbie Gould.

    Nah- game we had won. Parkey should be parked. What does Hue & Co. have against Coons? So he gets kicks blocked, 100% inside the 40.

    I'm seeing improvement. Still too many penalties. πŸ™

    well..most of the penalties were on one person so if we can get rid of that guy...the penalty count will improve.

    Soo many penalties on Pasztor.

  • That's another thing people dismiss. Injuries to 2 quarterbacks, Coleman, Nassib, Haden, and Lord knows. But managed to get 430 yards of offense with Pryor responsible for 200 of those yards. Incredible. We are the youngest team in the NFL and damn lucky to have a guy like Hue. After watching Terrelle Pryor's press conference I have new respect for him and the whole team. I had no idea Pryor was so passionate about the Browns. I've been ragging on him since TattooGate but always wished him success.

    He's talented and could easily have been sitting on his couch instead of Passing, Running, Catching and playing safety for Hue today.

    This team will grow and learn to win. I just hope there are more games like today that end in a "W" I was appreciative that CBS showed it here in Tampa. I won't see another game until they play on a Thursday.

    My prediction; We get a win against Washington

    I like it...

  • I like the fight in the undersized dog!! Too bad we don't have the FO helping them with paying the $$$ for a contract with Gould. 34 is still relatively young for a kicker to give you another 5-6 years. A 3-4 year contract would have been a no brainer for these clowns up there sacrificing a great team effort for $$$. Especially considering that with this O we will be kicking a lot of FGs this year.

  • I think a win would have been huge for the young guys and Kessler. Too bad we didn't get it.

  • And there would be assclowns on here complaining that by winning it was hurting the draft position.

    yeah i agree... I think its a 2-3 yr deal here still...the browns culture to me is still the same...at this point...they get blown out game 1...blow a 20 point lead game 2...come back in nice fashion only to lose because we have a shitty kicker...and the worse is the penalties...this is the same old stuff....again, at this point...i like jackson and i think we need to stick with kessler regardless how he plays but we could have made a statement here if we had beat miami, and we did not...instead it was the same old browns. Maybe, just maybe we can make a cultural change this weekend vs the skins...skins will have the momentum and they beat a team that was playing pretty good d...We shall see....

  • You've got to look at this game as a positive. With an average NFL

    kicker this is a win. Kessler can be an average QB and hold the fort

    til McCown gets back and until we get a franchise QB.

    I was somewhat impressed with the defense and their ability to stop

    the run. Granted Miami is still a lower rung NFL team but all in all a

    good job stopping the run compared to previous Browns teams.

    Browns COULD be 2-1 with a decent kicker and throwing out that

    bullshit call against Pryor in the Ravens game.

    For the love of god get someone who can play right offensive tackle!!!!!!!!

    This is the sad story every year. Could be, should be - but we're 0-3.

    There's a lot of positives to take away from this game IMO, which is pleasantly surprising since I thought we were going to get killed.

    Cody Parkey needs to get cut asap, but otherwise the team showed promise in a lot of ways.

    I think people are just happy with how we have improved each week. Players are not quitting, other guys stepping up. We see a team that is improving.

    There is alot of cynicism out there and it will take a while to overcome it.

  • Can't understand how anyone can be a sunshine pumper for this team.. year in.. year out.. it's the same...

    i do agree with that, however we have seen this before many times. We still don't know how to win. we have shown improvements from time to time with each coach we have had only to show complete failure. I know this is only 3 games in but i still see the same old shit...blown leads...penalties...missed opportunities like the missed fg yesterday. to me for improvement i need to see the w's start to accumulate. You are right about the players not quitting also, but seen that before. Unless it translates to wins, its all for nothing.

    He does need to be cut. And pastztor needs to be at least benched.

    what kind of message is it to cut Lee for not making the special teams tackle, (which didn't end up being a bad decision), but not cut the kicker that sucked and lost up the game.

    If the browns have the playoffs on the line, do we want this guy kicking?

    phil dawson would've nailed it.

    aside from that i'm happy with the direction hue and kessler have us heading.

  • It really sucks losing a game because your kicker misses 3 field goals inside the 50. Including a dead center potential game winner. Hard to really fault the players or coaches for yesterday - especially missing Coleman, Haden, McCown, etc.

    Our talent sucks balls that's the bottom line, nobody expected us to win a lot of games this year. They're exceeding expectations so far despite being 0-3 - people have reason for early cautious optimism with the direction they're going.

    I don't think our talent sucks balls. In fact, on offense I think the Browns could prove to have one of the most talented skill players in the league:

    Crow/Duke/Barnidge/TP/Coleman/Gordon when he gets back...and a couple of decent backups in our rookies and Hawkins.

    We have Pro Bowlers on the Left side of our line....a steady veteran now at center....

    But yes, on offense we have a few spots of concern. QB as always. RT...maybe RG 8 out of 11 solid, talented players on offense.

    Defense may be a bit more concerting. We need a better pass rush, and better coverage. Injuries don't help.
