0 turnovers on offense. 5 turnovers on defense. 3 sacks by the d-line. Beckham looked, dare I say, good today. Chubb took care of business per usual. Coach didn’t abandon the gameplan of running after getting down (and having two 3 and outs).

^Many statements I haven’t been able to say about a Browns team in a long time.

I wonder how good Phil Dawsons rookie season was...

8/12 with one missed XP. Not to mention he had a two below 80% FG pct years after that in random years.

I think they gave up on both Gonzalez and Seibert too quickly. Kicking in the NFL is a completely different animal to kicking in college.

Zane Gonzalez also went 31-35 last year with only one missed XP. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/G/GonzZa00.htm

Kickers are about as fickle as relievers in baseball. 

Would renaming the Cleveland Indians to the Cleveland Tribe be an option? They are already called the Tribe as a nickname quite often.

Not entirely sure if this would be considered less offensive. At a minimum, it sounds better than Indians. 

Yeah the A’s notorious for this. They can’t afford to be locked down to underperforming contracts because they are a small market team.

Like this for the Browns. Gives them the opportunity to not overreach for need in the draft and take BPA. Also, they can possibly strike gold on a player or two. It seems this off-season they have been taking underperforming former high round picks. 

Guessing the Browns FO doesn’t want Landry lining up fielding punts this coming season.
