That's now roughing the passer? That's it. Time to put TB12 in a dress and tell defenders not to tackle him anymore.

What an asinine call.

Sad thing is that ended the game. That would have been 4th down. Falcons was going to get the ball with a chance to win

The NFL is a joke. That shouldn’t make it so obvious that Vegas is involved

Just insane. I know some players are treated differently but that was way over the line.

You think they call roughing the passer if Brissett is sacked like that? Hell no.

Wonder if they league will have anything to say or will they keep their mouths shut so they don't make their officials look worse?

WTF did my brother and father turn me into a Browns' fan?

In the Browns' forums (and maybe here) most will blame the guy they don't like. Blame the coach guy will blame the coach.

Stefanski does deserve some blame as no idea why Hunt on last drive and no Chubb in FG range. That said, not even sure how much it mattered. Distance doesn't really matter for this kicker. Seems as likely he could miss from 40-45 as he would 54.

DC deserves some blame, too, I'm sure but one thing I don't blame a DC for is poor tackling and there was a lot of that. Did make a couple huge 4th down stops.

Hate to blame Brissett as overall he has played better than expected but WTF was that INT? Clear path for a 1st down (or TD).

another example of one thing changing entire narrative. York makes the kick (like he did week 1) and the above hardly gets a mention and Staley would be getting crushed for going for it.

I hate everyone.

Unfuckingbelievable. One of the most pathetic games if you like offense. Some truly terrible at bats but they survive somehow. Those kind of wins are huge for confidence just not sure they can ever play like that against the Yankees
So great....and good thing since we can forgive JRam swinging at 3 balls with the bases loaded, which would have been the narrative in a loss (and his great plays in field forgotten).

Whatever you say 1 nut

You are incredibly pathetic.

Just imagine if I reposted every wrong take you have made a dozen times.

Lucky for you, I have a life. So not going to waste my time doing that.
I mean, many people (likely you) do repost bad takes by him (and others). Own it and move on.

To be fair kind of reminds me when Wiggy took shit for saying Miami would not go far in the bubble playoffs when even their own fans agreed. In this case, doubt many saw the Tribe even finishing at .500. I didn't.

is CJ Stroud the best OSU QB you have ever seen?

Smith is prob. one of my favorites. Pryor was fun to watch. Fields had his moments. talent wise I think Stroud is prob. the best

he has to obviously accomplish more to be up there- but hes been incredible thus far


Troy Smith had 3 huge wins against Michigan and really established OSU's dominance over them. He is one of my favorite all time buckeyes.
I'd say for sure Stroud is the best I've seen. Sure, his receivers are often wide open and far better than the DBs.....but he also makes some nice throws into tight windows.

Holy shit, the coaching staff (mainly DC) blew this one. Brissett made one stupid decision. That last drive was so bad. Woods needs to be fired immediately.
I feel pretty confident Watson is going to lift this team to those kind of games but they should easily be 4-1. If it wasn’t for Woods they win that one easily. Ohh well competing with a backup QB and a DC that should be on his couch.

Brandon Staley got bailed out. That guy is an idiot
Woods was the DC on the big 4th down stops, right? and not the reason for the INT nor 2 missed FGs.

Tackling was pretty bad but sometimes that is the players. a number of people deserve blame for this one

Staley gave them the game. Before that Brissett forces a throw when he can walk in the endzone. The Browns DC decided this game though, gave up 200 yards to the worst rushing offense in the NFL.

If Woods doesn’t get fired, Watson doesn’t matter as much. They won’t ever be a contender
Manj...get rid of him and I wont complain (though no reall replacement to run anything other than his defense). as well as Brissett played this week we win with watson at QB....for sure we win last week with him.

D does need some fixing but, hell, was as good as the LAC and they had their starting QB.

Has this been mentioned yet? From the AP.

Yankees' Chapman ruled out for ALDS after skipping workout.

He missed a mandatory workout, that led to a fine. Article says it likely ends his time in NY.

Completely baffled by Baker.

He was never great, but he was pretty solid and even good in Cleveland.

Horrible with Carolina.
