Tale of the Tape - Browns @ Patriots

Definitely tough but it is what it is. Pretty obvious the Browns path probably lies in the division games...with 4 of those left they need 3 Ws there for sure. Laying an egg against Pitt really stunk 2 weeks ago. The Cincy game last week shocked me, I didn't see that coming at all.

The AFC is so tight. I'm looking forward to this NE game, although the last 2 Browns trips up there weird stuff happened.

The promising thing is that while 6-2 vs the remaining schedule sounds daunting, I feel pretty good about the Browns winning the next two.

4-2 in the last six sounds way easier.

I don't know if we can even afford 2 more losses. Losing at home to the Steelers really hurt. I think that our chances of playoffs are slim with games against the Ravens remaining. But we certainly cannot afford a loss this week to the Patriots.

If the Browns lose this Sunday vs the Patriots, their path to the playoffs gets treacherous.

I mean, three remaining games vs the Steelers and Ravens and a road game on Christmas Day in Green Bay ain't no joke.

before Friday's Practice...

Bill must want to win on this too.. Good to see Greedy working it out.. Need ya DPJ & #95 !

I get that Chubb is OUT (opps! not official).. Does D. Felton or John Kelly have any chance of activating from Covid list? New RB Brian Hill is sitting on PS

stay tuned

Let's Be nice...Ashley is a new writer (& free)... Pats RB's aren't healthy either.. Patriots defense is my bother...

If Chubb and Felton can't play....

I wonder how much we will see Janovich..........

he isn't just a blocking fullback.

I expect some cool surprises by the Browns....

and a win.

Because I bet a huge Patriot fan (still, after "pretty" Tom Brady left for the Bucs) in North Carolina that the Browns would win.

A best friend's daughter - she lives there...... she laughed and made the bet.

so, it's ON. But I can afford to pay up a dollar if the refs throw the game. LOL

I know we don’t seem to scheme up anything well against Lamar…but the Ravens are very vulnerable this year…to the point where I can see a Steeleresque kind of slide.

Friday Game Status..

Browns will be without RBs Nick Chubb, Demetric Felton and John Kelly on Sunday. Patriots are listing RBs Damien Harris (OUT/Saturday) and Rhamondre Stevenson *questionable. Neither practiced at all this week because of concussions.
