  1. We overcame bad luck, bad bounces, injuries and the refs…I’m definitely not a Stef fanboy but he deserves a lot of credit. That was a type of game where EVERY Browns team post 1999 would have lost. Having said that…PJ Walker running around throwing 8 yards short of the end zone has more risk than payoff. Sure a kick 6 would be possible…more likely see a blocked kick return- Part 2 from the Ravens…but I am not for any decision where PJ Walker handles a football for an extended period of time. Minor brain fart…I’m sure others may disagree so who knows
  2. We had our No. 4 tackle - and a guy many us didn’t know existed playing right and left tackle against one of the top defenses in the league. It wasn’t perfect - but we rushed for 178 yards and got 24 first downs. We had a backup come in a get a key INT. We had a much maligned DT - draft bust up to this year- block a FG. Stef had a good message post game about needing everyone- they certainly do. I like that he leaned on the run game when he loves to throw the ball…and essentially wore the Ravens out.
  3. I’d have to imagine Pat Shurmur is #2.
  4. I’m going to be Pro Michigan for one second…it is really hard. The biased support from UM alumni I’ve seen - I’m actually applauding your alumni for not jumping ship however irrational they appear. At the very least it is a lack of institutional control. You hired the guy he’s making 50K standing next to guys making 7 figures and giving input during a game…and he’s apparently behind some rule breaking sign stealing scheme. If no one talks the circumstantial evidence alone - makes an investigation easy- no matter what due process they seek. And Resolve what? The response to the Big Ten was straight out of 5 year old playbook…well Johnny does it why is it an issue with us. The NCAA if it wants to have a backbone like it had back in the day is going leave a size 13 shoe print on your asses. The hammer is coming. And please no Harbaugh.
  5. they have one positive going for them…expectations are low. It would be nice not to have any recollection of what this franchise once accomplished on a consistent basis. 8-9/9-8 would look good to some of these 20/30 somethings I might have my chest puffed out if i watched the Jim Brown era. I don’t even go back that far…my first Browns recollection….Browns Jets 1986 playoff game and then a period of 9 years where we had a nice run of playoff football.
  6. We didn’t play very good redzone defense last time…gotta hold them to kicks instead of TDs. After that I think you gameplan on offense in a way that doesn’t magnify the void at the tackle spots. I expect the Ravens to blitz off the edges heavily…you need to hit them in areas where the blitz is now vacating those spots. We made a lot of rookie mistakes on offense staring down WRs I don’t think we gift them the same this time out. And Yes flipside, shorter fields for our offense…maybe a Proche punt return (old team revenge)
