***Official Browns Vs. N.Y. Jets Game Day Thread***
-
Hi, Browns fans!
With the City Of Cleveland winning three potential professional championships innless than five months, the Browns are back in Cleveland after two road games to host the New York Jets, still seeking their first win overall in 2016, after being winless in the preseason, and 0-7 heading into Week 8 of their NFL season. The Lake Erie, now Cleveland Monsters, won the Calder Cup Trophy back on June 11, and one week later the Cavaliers, with LeBron James won the city's first NBA Championship over the Golden State Warriors at Oakland, CA on June 19. At this time, the Indians just defeated the Chicago Cubs in Game 4 of the 2016 World Series 7-2 at Wrigley Field, and are in position to win their first World Series Title for Cleveland since 1948, and third title since 1902.
Sunday can make it complete, if at all in one game, if the Browns finally win their first game of the season.
Though this year's Browns are winless, the team do show more grit each week, and may have an advantage when they play the New York Jets this afternoon at FirstEnergy Stadium. The Jets finished 2015 at 10-6, but were both out of the playoffs as the only team with a winning record, and the Steelers won the tiebreaker.
Josh McCown also returns as the starting QB for Cleveland, since he suffered a combined shoulder/ collarbone injury in the Baltimore game back on September 25, and only his second start in the 2016 regular season
Cleveland are on a current three-game regular season losing streak over the N.Y. Jets, being outscored 81-43, including an overtime loss in 2010, but the Browns still leads the all-time season series with 13 wins and 10 losses.
Cleveland is also seeking their first regular season win over the New York Jets in ten years. Browns last defeated the Jets 20-13 at Cleveland Browns Stadium back on October 29, 2006.
The 1986 Browns team will be honored and today is also the last Sunday the Browns will voluntarily dress in pink to help support the NFL's 'A Crucial Catch' Campaign, to support Breast Cancer Awareness Month, during today's game.
Light rain and cloudy skies at 55 degrees, feels like 52 degrees, is the game forecast for the 1:05PM Eastern Standard Time kickoff at FirstEnergy Stadium, along with 65% precipitation, 85% humidity, and northern winds at 11 miles per hour.
NO injuries to both the Browns and N.Y. Jets, as the Browns continue to Believeland, and Here We Go Brownies, Here We Go! Woof! Woof!

Are we playing Saturday?

Ohh, missed the last couple of weekends while traveling. I've been hearing some cautious optimism about today's game. A win at last?
-
This appears to be a better chance for a Browns win.
Jets 31 Browns 27

Jets defense very good against the run McCown needs to make sure he doesn't turn the ball over, Fitzpatrick almost certainly will
-
the road to 9-7 starts here
-
Nice
-
damn son, is the Browns' offense really that much better with McCown or does the Jets' defense really suck?
-
Three man routes......so refreshing

I haven't enjoyed watching a football game this much in a while.

Both. McCown knows most of the offense and can run a fuller playbook. Plus at his age he can read a defense much better than anyone on the team. Also the Jets have a god aweful pass defense.

Haden fucking stinks.

Ogbah's doing great today

Ogbah's doing great today
Especially considering he is getting held so much.

Ogbah, Shelton, Nassib...could be the beginning of a stout defense. Secondary still needs some help but maybe, just mabye, this FO is building something here.

Browns are leading the J-E-T-S at halftime 20-7.
-
Ok....that "win" we've all been waiting for is now sitting on a giant silver platter....13 pt lead and one half of football to play...
Can the Browns pull it out?.....or will they find a way to screw the goose?......
Im telling ya.....they better pull it out......NEED to pull it out......
