Yeah, the ship is WAY beyond FK’s grasp now

Our team last year - Come get some

Our team this year - Come get me

Enough said about Freddie and his failures. Get rid of him.

OBJ Says He's Committed To The Browns: "I'm Not Going Anywhere"

Micah 6:8; He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God.

John 14:19 Jesus said: Because I live, you also will live.

As someone that didn't want him, I still like hearing this comment. It could be for show, but if it's the truth, that means he hasn't given up on this team and city. Did he give up on the coach? That's a different discussion.

I'd like to think the guys are just feeling the pressure of coming up short. IMO, best case scenario, we were a 9 win team coming into the season. We're not too far off from that. The Broncos and Cardinals loses hurt, but every team loses to a bottom feeder during the season.

If you told me we'd be 3-1 in the division and going into week 16 with a chance to win more than 7 games, I would have taken it. Of course, it's not all good memories from this season. The schedule did us no favors early on and our entire secondary was out for a while. And I truly believe the Garrett incident hurt this team to their core. Just when they thought the team turned the corner and made a statement to the league, that happened and it split the locker room and brought all the wrong type of attention to the team, again.

I don't know the coaching answer and I don't know what to do with Baker, it's not uncommon for a head coach to stumble his rookie year and Drew Brees himself had a worse sophmore season (technically his 3rd but he only played one game as a rookie). Double down on the plan, draft some O-line, get some free agents, extend Schobert, get a hungry and humbled Garrett back and get to working on what went wrong, there's enough tape to learn from it all.

We did beat Buffalo, Pittsburgh & Baltimore and we were damn close to beating the Rams and Seahawks (and Pittsburgh the 2nd time and the Broncos too). Add in the three wins against the Jets, Phins and Bengals, that could have been a very good season had the ball bounced a different way or we didn't lose focus in certain moments.

Sure this season sucked, but I hope we can battle the Ravens and Bengals to finish strong. It's all we have to root for at this moment.

Like I read on Reddit.... Come Get Me sounds more like smack talk than anything.

As in:

"Oh hey [cuss word of choice], you think you can defend me? Come get me."

THATS what you say on the field.

They arent out there like on Gilligans Island: "Please rescue me"

Um, no. Anyone can watch the mic'd up and know thats not it.

Also, it would be really nice if Cleveland sports media could stop trolling our own teams. It just makes the whole city look bad.

Sports 101: You dont troll your own teams. You troll the enemy. MKC and her ilk are scum, or hit with the stupid stick.

So, Cleveland people, please start holding the media responsible for their stupidity, instead of blasting the players.

Media is the reflection of the Fans... remember the NBA finals and the Cavs....

Browns fans, IMO... while way too emotional and ridiculous, are generally fairly knowledgeable and passionate. And loyal... I'd argue to a fault.

Cleveland sports media folks are (with only 1 or 2 exceptions, IMO) lazy, not so much passionate as they are just permanently angry, and far too often are pretty uninformed.

So I would argue that while (local) media should normally be a reflection of the fans, Cleveland is a weird exception.


There is no level of sucking we haven't seen; in fact, I'm pretty sure we hold the patents on a few levels of sucking NOBODY had seen until the past few years.

If you understand the relationship of Jarvis and Odell, this was a non issue to begin with.

We are fortunate to have highly competitive wide receivers, this is a good thing.

A dream for them
