Always good to win. Lack of discipline remains an issue. Playoffs? Possible, but this team scares nobody.

Hope next week is another improvement.

Well after last week's opener that featured major league prices for minor league football, I have no confidence.

So that means Browns 15 Jax 13. Blocked punt out of end zone is the difference lol

DING DING DING....I almost nailed it.

Crazy game.

I was at a good friends gathering for the game, so I didn't log in here til now.

Certainly a bunch of positives, but the pre snap penalties drove me nuts. Good road win though.

I'm going to scroll back & read these comments...woof

I kind of looked at the beginning and the end of the comments, but I can imagine the rest... ?

Sloppy, ugly win, but hey, we're Browns fans.

We are never in any position to be picky. ?

Teams will gel, but the Browns don't seem to follow this trend.

Taped the game and just finished it, much better performance than last week in all facets of the game. Offense under Watson still doesn't look as smooth as Flacco but let's see how the season progresses. Great win, Go Browns!

I liken it to my natural abilities versus the natural abilities of my younger siblings.

It seems like I have to put 150 in to get 100 out, so I put 300 in to get 200 out.

My sister can put 50 in and get 200 out, so she's content to only put 25 in to get 100 out.

My brother can put 100 in to get 150 out, so he hammers and puts 200 in to get 300 out.

It may be vague, but it just seems the Browns are so slow to make necessary changes, whether by ignorance or incompetence.

Signed, an overachiever...

Ravens L, Bengals L - those are nice.

Steeler fans will jump about being on top but we’ll see how they do against their first competent opponent next week.

Grandson's 1st ever Little League game today. Got his 1st ever hit his 2nd time up!!! Walked 1st time up. Was awarded the Game Ball after the win! And then I find out the Browns won! What a Day!

...just finished watching the condensed version:

That guy, #58 Hicks, did he wear 58 in the preseason? (I believe he didn't survive roster cuts) If he was 58, he was all over the place during the preseason games. Him and #51 Hall were two guys that were disruptive. I kinda' like him.

Wright's Safety was the deciding score as the final Hail Mary came within a whisker of winning the game....And all because our Offense, which had gotten into range of notching another FG on the board, decided to get 3 big penalties in a row (at least two holding calls in a row)...and had to punt.

WATSON UP THE MIDDLE for the TD. Maan, I hate that. Second and goal from the 1. Your Three 1st round pick, quarter billion dollar QB who just had shoulder surgery...is who you're gonna make run the ball up the middle??

IMO, it's only a matter of time before Watson is hurt. He runs and does not slide. He's stretching things out for the extra yard, two or three. (even though they were important yards) - Being without our LT hurts. Jones at RT should be able to do a half decent job but having to play guys at LT that we only just signed to the PS a few days ago is a tough way to go.

The Defense did a good job that went a long way towards today's win.

Hopkins did a good job nailing the FG's.....but stupidly crossed the 50 on a kick-off where we recovered a fumble.

Today was the first leg of a possible 4 game winning streak.
