... poorly coached.

It's the same reason that Sean Payton watched the SB from his couch last year instead of playing in it..... that "no call" never happens if Sean ran the ball like he should have. How these coaches have NFL jobs is beyond me.

As a coach you either have the game flow feel or you don't........ Freddie doesn't.

Sick and fucking tired of watching bad coaching decisions.... milk the clock all the way down and run it a second time. Our coaches are playing checkers when they should be playing chess....... awful.

Anyone else get a little excited watching NE's defense? Maybe it's just me, but that is how you play the phuckin game of football.

It wasn't that many years ago that EVERY team took the opening kickoff when they won the toss - then Bill the genius changed all of that. Taking the ball first was not the reason the Browns lost......... they lost because the 9ers are a much better team.

About the same time your mom texted me U up............ it was worth it, trust me.

It means the Browns shouldn't look a second past Monday night's kickoff.

I loved the opening scene in Hard Knocks with Chubb at the airport..........

.................... Imagine if Freddie would've handed the ball to Chubb - all 4 times if needed, against the Rams on that final 1st and goal series.

I didn't see the game yesterday - and won't see many unless it's a nationally televised game as I have recently moved and finally dumped DirecTV. Simply looking at the stats and seeing the highlights, it looks like Freddie and company came in with a solid game plan all the way around, and more importantly, the players played really well. As for the original question? I'm guessing it's a matter of both with more weighting on the Browns being 'fixed'..... a rookie HC, a 2nd year QB ( who when compared to Tom or Aaron is barely holding his own head up, much less crawling, walking or eating solid food) and a roster full of young dudes that just don't know how to expect to win...... yet. So far they are right where I expected them to be..... some good, some bad, some great and some awful, all equaling a competitive team that finds ways to hurt itself a little more than it does to help itself. Baring injuries or suspensions, the Browns should at the very least be in the talk of the playoff hunt well into late December.

Take away all of the ridiculous, absurd and ludicrous off season hype and expectations, and I would think that every single person here would be absolutely stoked with a chance to get to 2-2 with a share of the division lead all while beating the ratturds in less than 24hrs. Some of you need to stop reading, listening to and watching "sports talk" shit shows and remember that this team is still measured in months when talking about how long they are removed from being a 1-31 team. If they put together 4 good quarters of football tomorrow, then I look forward to clicking on the several "Browns are going to the SB" threads.............

I'll have to go back and watch, but I don't recall seeing Freddie change Baker's launch point in the second half...... just pass play after pass play watching Baker drop straight back while the bulls chased him right up the middle. Freddie's play calling is simply awful. Those last 4 offensive play calls were straight out of an 8yr old playing Madden.

Just got done watching the game. 1st and goal from inside the 5, 43 seconds left with all 3 time outs and Freddie calls 4 straight passes.............not 1 mother fucking run. Absolute trash. Pathetic. Any high school coach in the country would have called a better 4 play series. Same old shit.

I was busy moving into a new home and getting my previous home of 29yrs ready to rent. Monday's game was the first snap I've seen of Browns football this year........ but I eventually found a way into the Tavern. Now to see if I can do it again.

Got it.. thanks!

Good drive, but run the damn ball down there Freddie.

Tried to sign up for the new Tavern........... makes me wish we had the old shitty one instead. Guess I'll artificially up my post count on this thread so I really look like I know what I'm talking about.

So glad I missed this game. My 1st look will be Monday night and it they get thumped, I'll stomp on the damn button.

This was only the second Browns opening day game that I have missed......... the other was the the 51-0 rectal rape of the Stoolerz in '89. Glad I missed today's embarrassment.

I honestly thought the dude was out of the league.... but then again I always get him and Kamerion Wimbley mixed up.

Last mother's day I was stopped at a red light in my truck and was rear ended by an uninsured, texting driver doing 38mph at impact. Had I have been on a bike, I wouldn't have even known what hit me. After I got out of my truck and he his car, I grabbed him by the throat and was milliseconds away from going to jail when I heard his 18 month old son crying in the rear seat and I instantly came down to earth again...... luckily the kid was in a car seat and was OK. I can't believe how fucking stupid the human species is..... all ages. I live in an area where there are 100s of miles of 2 lane 60mph roads with only a painted line separating the lanes and if I pass 10 cars, at least 3 of them were looking down to the right as we passed at 120mph and a whopping 8ft apart........... God I hate people.

..... the worst of all dicks.

Not everybody. But it currently is. That's for freaking sure.
