Still having a really hard time swallowing that loss knowing this team is about to face Tennessee, Oakland, Jacksonville and Tampa Bay all within the span of five weeks.
Team could easily be 5-3 after week 9. We will really be able to measure Pettine and this team come then. If they're truly improved and a team close to contention, they'll have a winning record after a very winnable stretch.
Fuck that game.
So if they are not, is it time to consider Pettine on the hot seat? You say it should be easy, so no reason then why the Browns are not 5-3 by that time, right?

Because a coach should be able to lead his team to wins in easy stretches of games. Otherwise, they would not be easy games. I am just giving the logical extension of the thought these games are going to be easy- thus, they should be won, and if they are not won, then the team fails to win easy games- and is that a well-coached team? The simply conclusoin of the discussion.Huh? Fans talk about "easy stretches" of games all the time, in every sport, how exactly does that mean the coach should be on the hot seat?

Jeremy Fowler is going to cover the Browns exclusively. Dude was a pretty good college writer - not great, but it's nice to see some national coverage being imbedded with the team. Or it's a matter of CBS spreading themselves to assign a reporter to each team - no idea. Could do a lot worse than Fowler though.

Give him a follow, he's a pretty good journalist and there aren't many of them on the Cleveland beat.
I thought Pat MacManamon was doing a great job for ESPN. He was also supportive of Hoyer and not afraid to be very critical of Manziel. ESPN might have wanted someone to write from a stronger company line, just guessing...
In the meantime, the Browns defense is ranked 31st in the league despite being the focus of several first day drafts and most of the salary cap...
Sucks that Crowell is going to fall off once Tate comes back presumably in week 5. I feel he will still get some 3rd & 1's and goal line work, but I love what we have been seeing from those 2.
I guess I can't complain, we have 3 RB's on our team we are actually happy about.
