Frenchie Posted January 16, 2021 Report Share Posted January 16, 2021 I’m running out of adjectives to describe my feelings about the Browns this season. I would have considered 8-8 a successful year for Steph and Berry. In this COVID year. 10 wins was a joyful and pleasant surprise. But 11 wins and making the playoffs was absolutely delightful. I was ready to proudly say goodbye last week, but another victory against Pitt and now we’re into the second round, Shocking! I will be cheering hard tomorrow and I think the Browns will play extremely well. So fingers crossed that by the time the Chief’s rust comes off, the Browns have punched 35 first-half points again - on their way to the sweetest of victories. But win or lose, this team has earned my respect and has me grinning ear-to-ear. GO BROWNS! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasAg1969 Posted January 16, 2021 Report Share Posted January 16, 2021 Truthfully I was just hoping we improved enough for this new HC to get at least 4 seasons to get us to this already attained level. Never in a million years did I see this coming this soon. Really-did anyone here see this coming? Amending for the blind squirrel. Did anyone besides the blind squirrel see this coming?🤣 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I rarely predict the Browns to win the Super Bowl (but always in the playoffs) ... but my picks were pretty good this year, outside of the Cokeboys (If someone got the NFC East right ... I applaud them). Zombo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm back in Cowgirl country Flugs. Lost 8 pounds since being away from my overeating relatives in Colorado, but then I've had my bicycle to ride again instead of just hikes which I am still doing-just not as icey or cold with the exception of the 4 inches of snow we got last Sunday (most I have ever seen in Texas). Also not as tempting as having Peanut M&Ms in a bowl in the kitchen all the time like my sister in law was doing. Haven't had a one since our return in Dec. I'll send you my home phone # in a PM. I never know where my wife hides the cellphone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah... remember him more for the opening scene of Amadeus... Just another in a long line of bit player, character actors whose faces you know, but whose names you rarely do...

After that it gets "iffy", meaning you do need some things beyond your control to fall in to place. This is a good, new starting point.

Frenchie Posted January 18, 2021 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2021 Why do we care about Johnny M? Some things are best left in the rearview mirror. Look, the KC game was there for us to win. I thought the play calling supported a questionable game plan (or was not aligned to the right game plan). The pulling -guard smash-mouth running plays were effective and necessary for clock management. Don’t know why we abandoned the run like we did. It was disappointing. Nonetheless, the KC defense came up big when they needed to and I’m still proud of the team and the way they played this season. There is big fight in our dawgs.
