Week 19: CLE @ KC.... they play some crazy little football there and we're gonna get us some...

Unlike Tour and his Xmas tree
The tree is still out and in same state as it was Sunday nite..
Hopefully will be thru Feb. 7th...
Do you think I need to glue leaves back on the two Poinsettias?

Cleveland, runs the ball. you are a running team....and why shouldn't you be, you have 2 very good RB. Stefanski has made you viable by turning Baker Mayfield into the next Alex Smith....just manage the game, hand off...don't throw picks. Win the TO battle. That's a winning formula in the regular season. ....and if you come up agasint a team that is going to turn it over 4 times in the 1st Q and spot you a 28-0 lead....that should work.
It's worth reminding you, KC was down 24-0 after 1 Q VS Houston last year. We led 28-24 at halftime. We lost the TO battle. Pat Mahomes renders alot of conventional wisdom and stats meaningless.

Now see... that ^ was a reasonable post. Not that it will help you with many here... you've already pissed a lil too much in that punchbowl... but it was better.
On HOU... My first reaction was "so your O does get rusty?" My second that we lost to HOU in a wind tunnel coming out of our Bye even with our ground game. Same was true two weeks prior in our loss to LV.
As to game manger Baker... again true, but only at the above point in the season. And since then only when the game flow assigns him that role. But when a shootout is in the offing, then Stef cuts Baker loose. Witness his mid-300 ypg outings vs. TN (a 41-35 win) and BLT (a 42-47 loss) in back to back weeks. Check out the "Must Read..." thread for a breakdown of Stef's "Project Baker".

Yea, we know. But....FYI....the Browns WILL show up. You WILL have to play them. You have not been given another bye.
Look at how many times the Browns have scored 35 or more points 6 times this year. ...and another game with 34 pts. So don't think that the Browns can't score points either.
-
Regardless of how it turns out, the Browns will leave it all out on the field - they do NOT quit. Of course, the Chiefs have a star studded offense. Mahomes is amazing. So is Baker. The Chiefs have arguably the best TE in football, Kelce, and one of the fastest wrs in Hill.
and...Watkins is dangerous. He was a 4th overall draft pick by the Bills about 7 yrs ago. If the Browns win - a world of credit will go to the defense I think - the Chiefs offense is seriously talented. but so are the Browns.
Defensively - we'll see whose defense wins the day.
Browns advantage - Chubb and Hunt. Their defense won't stop them.
I believe this game will be another blockbuster - people will remember it for a long time.
Interesting - Joe Thomas is really excited about the Browns chances:

whata ya wanna do?
Hey, pat macock, why not head back to that kansas city forum and circle jerk over there?

The only way the Browns can fail to win by a landslide is if the game was rigged...
If the Browns lose on Sunday we should all storm the NFL Headquarters ...... demanding a rematch, who is with me ?

You were plus 16 in turnover margin in your games over 30. KC lost the turnover margin only twice all year...the won both games anyhow.

LOL @ joe Thomas. .....I love the narrtive that KC has played all these one score games as if they ALMOST lost them....up by two scores very late in all of them...and the other team gets a late garbage time score to pull within a score and onside kick etc.... KC beat the Saints, on the road, the Bucs, on the Road, the Ravens, on the Road, and the Bills....on the road....all playoff teams...all still playing..and all road wins.
Congratulations to you guys for making the playoffs and winning against the Steelers on the road....I don't want to diminish that...but that's as good as it's going to get this year.

LOL at Joe Thomas? I thought your post was fair enough AFTER you said that. I think Joe Thomas knows a LOT about what he's saying. The Browns are really fortunate to get Ward and Johnson back into the secondary, along with Harrison at safety.
Whatever the final score is, this will be a GREAT game that people will talk about for years. Watching Mahomes and Baker inspire the rest of the offense around them will be priceless.

Hmmmm.
The Farce feels strong in this one. Fortunately it's easy enough to check... Starting Week 9, with Week 10 their Bye, let us see...
Week 9: CAR... sort of... if you consider14:23 left in the 4th to be "very late." --------------- Week 11: @LV? Nope.... KC came from behind... NO SOUP FOR YOU!
Week 12: vs. TB... Up 3 scores thru the 3rd and 2 most of the 4th... so that's one. - Week 13: Ummmm... pretty sure Denver was not the one doing the comeback thing here.
Week 14: @ MIA... is it just me or is "late" coming earlier and earlier? -------------------- Week 15: vs. Saints... hmmmm... came from behind in 3rd, did go up 2 scores briefly in 4th...
Week 16: vs. ATL... lol.... think I'll leave this one full size.
I'm feeling generous... you were right in 2 and kinda right in one other.... so 2.5/7 is your score.
Oh well.... you had one reasonable post.
Did you go to Faber?

Same same across the board except there's one more on the boards... Carlson and his groin.
For KC Edwards-Helaire backslides along with Yelder while Fenton upgrades. That's a tradeoff we can live with...

As for the injury reports...
Not much news for us... Njoku resting up and seeing a lot of the trainers.
Ditto for KC... basically just confirming their Practice report.

Carlson and his Groin would be a great band name. For you aspiring musicians, you heard it here second.

As of now, the weather prediction for Kansas City Sunday afternoon is a high of 39, with little chance of precipitation.
Perhaps poor weather would actually help the Browns, though.
