If I am that's a you problem....hard for me to rip anyone when I didn't think we'd win either.
JOK in this new scheme has gone from mediocre to unbelievable.

honestly- all those broken coverages last year and stuff were a joke. Schwartz is awesome.

Cant believe they pulled that out missing Chubb, Watson, and 2 great offensive lineman. Just unreal.

Browns fans from the bottom of my heart, I apologize. I especially want to say @dtgold88 was right and I was wrong. Thanks for giving them an L and with McCaffrey and Deebo exacting a toll that will linger for weeks. Well done.
I mean I'd like to take the credit but no way I saw a W today. Only area I really thought you went full nut was saying we had no chance even if Watson played.

Now it's on your team to hold home field.

It's hard to watch every game and I doubt the Browns are on your must watch list. What I saw from them the first 3 games (regardless of opponent) was an exceptional defense.

Yea they lost the Pitt game but even an average game from Watson would've been a Browns W
and holy hell was I thinking another Steeler game after the INT.

let's just not revisit this

fair?

My last point is dude was wearing a damn gaiter on the sideline like it was 15 degrees out. I truly think he wants no part of being hurt and in cold weather.
I don't even recall seeing him tbh. But I can appreciate if I didn't like him like you anything he did might bother me (and I'm being serious).

My kid went and at least brought enough clothes in case it was cold, windy and rainy. Ended up ditching some.

I wore sandals today and it's 59 here. Some people are built for cold. Some aren't. And to me 59 isn't cold.

Even without Watson I think we may have rolled them with Chubb. The running game was OK but noticed a few plays Ford got no gain that was a hole big enough for Chubb.

This team can be really good if watson can be back soon I think.

59 is not cold if that's what it was.......but the guy can wear a parka or snow suit if he wants in the Summer for all I care.

I will say last game I was critical of Stefanski. Even this game early but overall he called a pretty good game. No complaints other than possibly that pass play on 2nd down.

I still stand behind my opinion he probably goes if under .500 but that’s football

the O is trash

D is ridiculous

you weren't completely wrong
I mean, they did put up 5 scoring drives against arguably the top D in the league with a 3rd string QB. Including what turned out to be a GW scoring drive. I'd say hats off to them.....but, sure the D mattered more.

The defense is ELITE.

Seemed like at times the offense tried to lose. On that 2nd down near the GL
I can agree with that. some headscratching calls for sure and as you both mentioned the near pick when he should have run and kept the clock moving.

But they should be getting a little credit for 5 scoring drives including a game winner....with the 3rd string QB. against an undefeated team with a top D.

That INT, though....ugh.

I think that's fair. I would say for sure he called a good game for the most part. Hell, in addition to what they did score had a TD called back on a penalty that didn't even help on the play (not that it was a bad call).

Did some things I don't like that he often does.....no urgency when needed (mostly drive before our last drive). I get have to throw a little and was terrible so on Walker. But maybe a run of safer pass instead of the pick? Wa so thinking this will be the Steeler loss again.

will say a guy I've been very critical of in Jerome Ford looked very good today. His best game as a Brown

didn't hear the play by play I was out for game. The refs were ridiculous but I can't be mad at the even calls on both sides on defensive holding. Too many flags altogether for my taste
Oh, my. when we had a 4th and 1 at around our own 40 with the lead Olson said we should go for it.....then when it was 4th and 4 at their 40 trailing he said why would we go on that but not the 4th and 1. and there were many more.

ST was a joke for both teams (and they were worse) with flags.

He was OK, but man we'd have rolled if we had Chubb (I get not fair to want him to be Chubb). Was a time I was thinking just use Hunt but he picked it up.

I saw they finally benched DPJ on returns after he caught a line drive punt at the 5

dude has been atrocious in making those calls.

Walker said he was supposed to run on that play in postgame.
