Week 1: Browns vs. Titans

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
How can the first game be a trap game?

You’d be hard pressed to find anyone who didn’t think the Browns were winning this game leading up to this afternoon. An entire off season of media hype is how this was a trap game.

Then we’re in deep shit.
 
Called it. Browns should just refuse to play week 1s

Well I mean, it’s not like that hype is going to come back any time soon... :chuckle:

I’m sure this was a wake up call on some level. Now whether that’ll actually change anything going forward is TBD.

Penalties can be cleaned up, but I have legitimate concerns about the offensive line. I haven’t seen the line that overmatched since Tim Couch was getting taken off the field with a broken leg.
 
Bizarre game. On offense I think our problems begin and end with the line. Giving Baker more time and Chubb more holes would have a ripple effect for everything else - longer drives, more opportunities for big plays, more points.

But sadly the defense looked lackluster and that was really unexpected. We generated way less pass rush than the Vernon acquisition was ostensibly going to give us making the Zeitler trade sting even more. I don’t know what to say about that, to be honest.

All in all, the season feels salvageable but we looked bad. Very, very bad.
 
I’m not impressed with Freddie’s answers postgame. He said they’re not going to change anything as coaches regarding the penalties, downplaying everything saying it’s just one game, and shifting responsibility saying the blame belongs to everybody.
 
The biggest bummer is that this loss just gives assholes around the country license to mock Cleveland in general yet again. We don’t fucking deserve this shit, man.

He needs his ego checked. You're not Belichick, bruh. You've not done shit in this league.

To act like he isn't accountable, is not shit I want to hear right now. He literally pooped the bed out there.
 
If the Steelers come out, and man handle the Pats. I might not be able to watch another down this season. Half kidding, but I need a little pick me up. After our performance, and the Ravens looking like the 2007 Pats on offense today.

At least destroy those fuckers.

We gotta take our medicine. Browns deserve every bit of mocking that comes their way for the next week. They didn’t look ready to play a game today.

I also don’t believe in the “good will come from this” nonsense that I’ve seen on Twitter. Is there a single positive that can be taken away from this? That’s a 7-8 win team that we played today and they shit all over us. We can have all the playmakers in the world, but if we continue to commit penalties and trot out a high school offensive line this team will take a step backwards.

The fans don't deserve it. LOL. We are the most loyal fanbase in the country, when it comes to this team. We support them through literally the worst. When many would just give up.

We don't deserve to have this happen to us. All our hopes just literally smashed to shit, like this.
