Cleveland Browns & The NFL

by **Rat_Tail** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 8:23 pm

Browns must go harder than Baltimore.

by **Squints** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 9:23 pm

I am a Time Warner Customer who just got the NFLN. Just saw a promo for "Cleveland '95" to air next Wednesday. Fuck that.

Little couldn't catch a cold.

by **justmebd** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 9:40 pm

I think all the Browns need is some of Butters Creamy Goo. It's good enough for Tom Brady!!

by **fairvis** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 9:54 pm

Shit.

by **StewieG** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 9:54 pm

Wow, Cribbs was out before he hit the ground...hope he's OK.

by **bookelly** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 9:54 pm

Jesus..

by **Noodle** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 9:55 pm

Holy crap!

God I hope Cribbs is OK. That was brutal.

by **Commodore Perry** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 9:56 pm

I'm physically ill after watching that hit on Cribbs. Horrible. Brutal.

by **bookelly** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 9:57 pm

Good challenge SHUR...ya fucking idiot.

by **fairvis** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 9:57 pm

It wasn't just the hit. He was out cold, and got spiked in the face as well.

by **StewieG** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 9:58 pm

Is that a SHUR challenge? If so, fucking moron. That was clear as day.

by **fairvis** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 10:00 pm

Can't challenge a change of possession anymore. Those are automatically reviewed by the booth.

by **Noodle** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 10:03 pm

What? We interrcepted the ball?

by **Fire Marshall Bill 2.0** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 10:03 pm

There was no challenge

by **Squints** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 10:08 pm

WR equivalent of Bill Buckner on that "catch."

by **Fire Marshall Bill 2.0** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 10:08 pm

3rd & 17 let's run a 0 yard pattern

pass behind the LOS. unbelievable. I mean honestly, what the actual fuck are you trying to accomplish on that play?

by **bookelly** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 10:11 pm

Little couldn't catch the flu in a Children's Hospital.

by **fairvis** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 10:11 pm

I don't think Shurmur knows how to convert a 1st and 20. Not sure if I've seen him do it yet.

by **bac5665** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 10:12 pm

The play calling was so bad on that series that I don't believe it. In all seriousness, how can someone be that bad at their job and make it to this level? SHUR didn't get stupid overnight. It boggles the mind.

by **fairvis** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 10:12 pm

It's to the point where if this team gives up a hold or sack, I know that they'll punt. Sickening.

Shurmur = Acta.

It's the same guy. Hopefully, Patty follows in Manny's footsteps out the door.

by **Noodle** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 10:16 pm

Our secondary is crap without Haden.

by **bac5665** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 10:21 pm

Ever second down play has been a 33 up the gut. Absolutely inexcusable. Complete horseshit.

by **fairvis** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 10:24 pm

Great. Kick catch interference because the real refs didn't see the push in the back.

by **Mr. X** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 10:24 pm

Nice out route to a 3rd string RB. It's genius because Baltimore would never expect it.

Huh? When the fuck did Acta show less ability than a 12 year old who plays Madden? Acta seemed at least to understand what the problem was; he all but called out the front office. Shurmer is actively hurting the team.

Its amazing that Holmgren hired him. I don't see how you can fire SHUR and not the guy that hired him too.

The Browns run of head coaches has been unbelievably bad.

by **Commodore Perry** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 10:33 pm

The Browns are much more enjoyable to watch when broadcasted with professional announcers that know how to complete both thoughts and sentences. Throw in a competent production crew as well, and I barely even notice the Browns sucking. I'm just dazzled by the magic of it all.

by **Squints** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 10:35 pm

What's the NFL record for the number of punts in a year?

I really don't understand how all three Cleveland teams (and the Blue Jackets) can have such unbelievably bad front offices. 3 of those 4 teams are the worst in their league right now and are likely to stay there for the next few years. The 4th, the Cavs have literally thrown away 2 top 4 picks and completely wasted Kyrie's Cleveland tenure.

I mean, has any other city in sports history had such a run of horrible team management? Cause certainly no other city is anywhere near as bad right now.

by **bac5665** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 10:41 pm

Weeden is staring down his receivers before the play even starts. My Gods.

Oh look, Little caught his one catch for the game. Looks good.
:cheers:

Browns on national TV makes me just wish they'd leave us the freak alone.

Hey... Red zone. Dawson, get ready! (channeling Earl Little)

At the 1. Belichick w/ the Browns would have taken his headset off and do a punching motion.

Sweep? ok it worked

by **Erie Warrior** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 10:45 pm

Atta' boy T-rich

by **drum** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 10:45 pm

A competent drive. That was a welcome sight.

by **Noodle** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 10:46 pm

Wow...that looked good.

Where the hell has that been?

I think Acta is a good mgr.

Now strip the damn ball.

by **bac5665** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 10:47 pm

Well, that was fun. Let's get the stop and see what the 2 minute offense can do.

by **bookelly** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 10:48 pm

Gotta hold'em here...

by **bookelly** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 10:49 pm

Gotta love NFL Network rubbing salt into the wound with that "Browns would've won SB" commercial.

I hope Haslem changes the "it's ok to shit on us" mentality that permeates not only this team, but the NFL.

Edit: spelling

Isn't it pretty much a matter of Weeden and Little to stop clenching their sphincters so tight that it gets picked up by the field level mics?

by **googleeph2** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 10:53 pm

Need to hit a pass now. After a completion, TR is money on the next play.

SHET never mind, kill the clock and get outa the rain

by **Noodle** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 10:56 pm

Slobberknocker?

by **municipalmutt** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 11:13 pm

Two quick things:
1. Every time we send a guy in motion, can that NOT be the guy that gets the throw his way? The defense has figured that out and are jumping the route every fucking time. It's gonna lead to a pick six there Shur. Poorly designed play and too predictable.

2. We need a new punter.

by **Noodle** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 11:20 pm

We have Buster Skrine on Anquon Bolden?

Shit.

by **municipalmutt** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 11:27 pm

Too bad Fujita was not suspended...
for the season.

by **bookelly** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 11:45 pm

We got a punchers chance on this one...

Give it to Trich and ride him to the W.
