Some Rules still apply

2007, the 33-30 overtime win over the Ravens. We choked a 27-14 lead after a 100-yard pick 6 near the end of the 3rd quarter. The double doink FG at the end of regulation ended up saving the game for us and we later won with a shorter FG (all hail Phil Dawson, the best kicker in expansion Browns history).

I hate this time of year because it drags on until we get to see the boys on the field in Berea during camp.

I am stoked to see them in Nashville, New Orleans and possibly Cincy.

I am also planning on attending a few games at home, but not sure which ones aside from the Steelers TNF game.

Curious where everyone else is seeing Monken and company.

Go Browns !

Or Gabriel? Are most of us in the “anyone but Deshaun” club?

I've been getting a lot of old random Browns highlights on my YouTube feed.

Most of them are depressing because they're losses.

But occasionally I'll see a fun one that we won.

I actually just watched the 2014 comeback against the Titans and it was fun.

This had me curious ....

Is there is a specific loss that you STILL cannot believe happened?

Before we start I want to rule out a few because of how obvious they are.

• The Dwayne Rudd helmet game in 2002.
• The Steelers & Chiefs playoff losses in 2003 and 2021.

^^ Please DO NOT select these games ^^

I have two games that stand out like a sore thumb:

First is in 2007 on the road in Pittsburgh. I think we were up 21-3 early in the game and found a way to completely blow it and lose 31-28. The offense just completely shit the bed in the second half and couldn't do anything. We needed that game badly too. I remember listening to it on the radio while I was working a 12-hour shift at Circuit City. We were doing store setup so it wasn't actively on any televisions anywhere.

Second is in 2021 on the road against the Chargers. Our offense was absolutely clicking on all cylinders that day and we had a 27-13 lead in the 3rd quarter and somehow ended up losing the game 47-42 because our defense was putrid. That was the game where we had over 500 yards of offense and zero turnovers and still lost. I think we were the only team to ever do that. That game was an absolute back breaker. I think we would have been 4-1 had we won.

What specific loss still makes you want to drink bleach?

PS - I know this might be a doom-and-gloom kind of post because we've been such a skid mark on the NFL's under pants since returning in 1999, but I genuinely do like the roster that AB is building right now and think we're a good QB away from entering a good window of competitive and competent football. I hope we can get said QB1 next year in the draft. Hang in there everyone. Good days are coming.

“Here’s the Browns offensive line situation heading into training camp:

Todd Monken said they have 4/5 starting linemen figured out.

🔸LT — Spencer Fano (R)
🔸LG — Zion Johnson
🔸C or RG — Elgton Jenkins
🔸RT — Tytus Howard

Here are the guys battling for that 5th spot:

🟤C — Parker Brailsford
🟤C — Luke Wypler
🟤RG — Teven Jenkins
🟤RG — KT Leveston
🟤T/G — Dawand Jones
🟤T/G — Austin Barber (R)
🟤G — Zak Zinter (just kidding)

Who do you think will lock down the 5th starting spot on opening day?”

I'd love to hear more about the head "split open" from a plastic beer bottle.

Y'all remember this?

You'd think the Refs would do their fuckin job afterwards? ...but NO

Why doesn't this happen more often?

Why can't the NFL have FULL Time Refs, and a public rating system for their performance?

I pray Sanders wins the qb battle but am I only who is worried me might see a repeat of the 2024 offseason?- the browns decline to bring Flacco as the back up (even though he played well and got them to the playoffs) to avoid there being pressure of Watson a the start of the 2024 season. If Sanders loses the qb competition would they be dumb enough to do that again? Trade away sanders so Watson doesn’t have to look over his shoulder?

Would AB be crazy enough to pick up Arnold with his horrific legal situation right now ?? He is a great young Corner... who is in a lot of trouble right now.
