★ From the RedZone today ......

The BROWNS  27 points today is the most  points scored by a winning team without  scoring  an offensive touchdown since 1999.  

That 1999 just caught me like it probably caught most BROWNS fans as the year of the return to the NFL.   And it also  shows how hard what we saw today in Houston is to accomplish. 

SO if you want to   W-I-N   in this league you better learn how to  score TDs.     :o

Looks very good…No original everything? 

We generally get two pizzas one for today and two for leftovers and/or mix them.  Wedgewood is so simple, pizzas, salad, wings and nothing much else except cold beer, wine, pop, bagged munchies 

1. Our usual a 12" House Special with added mushrooms and extra cheese  (my favorite).

2. Sometimes a 12" Philly Steak Pizza, this time a 12" Plain with Mozzarella cheese and added mushrooms and roasted red peppers.   Great to mix and match or a late night snack.   Pretty simple but always delicious.

Not piling on Watson's HoF performance today, but I have an honest question.

I have only seen 3 or 4 of Watson's games before, so maybe it's just his face, but he looked disinterested / lackadaisical to me during the entire game today.... Just a lack of perceived fire and he couldn't care less I suppose.

Just me and it's how he's always played?

His last full season (IIRC)  was 4832 / 33 / 7 great numbers.  And pretty good numbers leading up to that year.  I guess, not being a close follower of DW, that the breaking point way when he wanted to get out of HOU.

You might think that with Cleveland's established OL and RBs he would be able to fit in here nicely.  Now I think that his contract was EXCESSIVE to say the least..... that's what I know about the deal. NOW the legal crap, OMG.

I am assuming his play will get better with more live fire reps, but it's his body language and facial expressions that have me concerned.

Again, maybe it's just who he is and how he has always looked on the field, but my memory says that he had fire and a body language that showed it.... Hopefully I'm just reading way too much into it.

His video while leaving the field showed some emotion, albeit woefully tone deaf.

PUT IN DOBBS

Sadly, toooo late....  We have a varied fanbase at our games.... Dobbs is as good as gone after being released... Per our LIONS fan today he interviewed with Detroit, with both their backups injured, expect him to get that gig there....

Whatever the Texans do today, they will help and hurt their first round draft position at the same time. 

they can't get much worse... Easily in the pole position for the #1 overall pick... Right now the pick they got from the Browns is in the #15 range....

Glad to see you back BW....

YES.  After 121 games a PR TD and better yet my guess is well close.    7-5.

Do we need to go back to the days of Josh Cribbs for one?

Second half plans   Wedgwood Pizza on its way here !   Ummmmmm. 

Oh the game will our BROWNS ever wake up ?  How about a few quick TDs here ?

It might be a chain, but Jets sicilian is pretty decent....

I was there once. It was damn hot. We didn’t even finish 18 holes. We quit after 9. Damn hot

Hot??  My pal got married in Saint Louis many years ago in July... Guys golf outing and it was around 95 degrees... We see a golf cart coming up the 16th fairway, and the guy says..  "Are you guys interested in buying a beer?  Like how many you have there?

If I had a $230 million dollar guaranteed contract, I wouldn’t give a shit if my team won or lost.

I think that’s the issue with a guaranteed contract, if offers no motivation.

Bingo!... I didn't expect Joe Montana out there today... But he looked mighty pedestrian.. Lot of passes went into the dirt... There better be marked improvement next week... Cincy ain't no joke... They're not the texans

Hold on.... are you implying that the Cincinnati Bengals - the defending AFC Champions - are on a higher level than the Houston Texans - a team in full tank mode?

That same thing was said the last time we played him...while he was the Texans QB.  I'm guessing, that's his natural look???

We had a QB duel today.  Watson QB rating 53.4.  Allen's 53.5.   - If I were QB coach I'd tell Watson that he's gotta throw it so it doesn't bounce it's way to the receiver.  And then I teach him how to slide and not take on defenders.  He's the QB.  He has special rules designed to protect him.  Slide!  Do not take hits!

And in another interesting tidbit of   ▪︎ Lucky Week 13  ▪︎  all 4 AFCN teams won.  A big mulligan or maybe do over going into  Week 14.   This season is moving right along.

Every game naturally is very important for us.

This goes in the books as a Browns win.  But actually it was more like a Texans loss.  They did almost everything they could to lose the game...and ultimately they did lose.  But our offense was awful.  If it wasn't for Houston constantly losing the game to us, we would've lost.

I just rolled in from a ride and elected not to watch the game, but it's good to see Watson put up more points than Jacoby has been, helping to justify the record contract and silence the haters.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Too soon? 

Huh?  Didn't the offense put up 3 points?

We expected rust but I saw a guy who looked older and slower with less fluidity, slower reactions, and he looked less athletic.

Absolutely  .... in his first game back under REAL live fire even though it was the ONE win Houston Texans. 

BUT to make a decent observation wait until week TWO when he should  (or better be) much improved now that the loads of rust should be gone.  The next 3 of 5 are CIN BAL PIT although all   "could "  be winnable games IF CLE has anything left in the 2022 tank.   

Then we will see what the football genius Haslam got for mortgaging the BROWNS  future on this once and better  still continued to be a franchise quarterback.   Remember too his last full year he was 4823 / 33 / 7 we'll all see for ourselves how much of that is left with the current 2022 BROWNS RECEIVING CORP.

We all will be watching there Dick Mellon  ..... BTW why do you come drifting over here ?  All 4 AFCN teams won do you go over there also ?  Just curious.    :D

Spent game day here with 15 filthy animals ...  images.jpg.431dabeb28ab80bd0ab521f837f55420.jpg

 Drink of the Day? took 3 to digest the 1st Half.. 

  1. Rusty Nail.🥃

  2. Add the scotch and Drambuie into a mixing glass with ice and stir until well-chilled.

  3. Strain into a rocks glass over one large ice cube.

 Knew I was drunk when DPJ hit the end zone on a punt return TD & this defense finally created some scoring turnovers..

 

1.) Called in sick to work today..

2.) Going back to bed 🤯 with exploding head

 

F'k it... Back2Back Browns Victory Mondays is worth it !

The new forum says I'm a newbie, but I have been here for 11 years.  This is the only board that I have belonged to since Cold Hard Football Facts imploded, like 10 years ago.  I really like it here.  This is a great group with a lot of history.
