We signed an extremely fast WR off waivers 2 or 3 weeks ago. I am certain he is who people will be referring to.

Browns are still 7 point favorites with the Vegas ... the line moved 2.5 points with this news.

I still believe we will win.

I should've been more clear that it was a sincere X's and O's question and not a sky-is-falling rhetorical.

I'm oddly calm with the recent developments. I think we still win. If anything, just the trap game aspect goes away.


I say that as someone who was kinda doom-and-glooming about the Pitt game.


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.

Colts have moved from being 1.5 point favorites to being 2 point underdogs .... I think that's going to be a hell of a game.

Agree, Coach S must pull some more magic from his gift bag. The team has overcome much, hopefully they can overcome this. I predict bootleg pass on first play to one of our TEs for a good gain.......GO Browns!!!!

Has there ever been a better timed matchup than us against the Jets this week? If this were most other teams we’d be sunk.

Chubb and hunt need a combined 35 carries.

We need to get Johnson some touches as well.

But for whatever reason, I have a feeling baker is gonna torch the jets using our TEs.

Hunt as a WR and Chubb and Johnson splitting the carries ? Johnson has shown plenty of ability when he has been given the opportunity. Burst and power. Going to be interesting. Baker's attitude is also going to be interesting: has he bought into KS sufficiently that he is going to simple go to work and execute? Or is he going to feel like he has to be something special and start forcing things? I feel like last year Baker would have forced things from the first play of the game ... this year I am hoping that there is more calm and trust that we will win if he and others just do their job.

Hooper Day? This is a day to be relentless more than engineering huge plays. Run hard, hit open passes, contain the Darnold. Some productive possession drives would help. Play to win, start hot. fingerscrossed brownie

Start at the very back of the playbook, cutting out the Landry pass plays. Bring a sand pit to draw up new ones.

It’s incremental things like this that are the difference between success and failure. If one of the WRs hangs onto a pass on a 3rd and long which proves to turn momentum our way, think of this.

going to need all 3 out there with Baker in warm ups getting their timing down.

Especially Hall on the deep ball.

Bradley has been in a game this year which also means he has at least some practice rep with Baker. Willies is a size guy, not a speed guy, so timing will not be as important (you just throw it if he's open, really).

Run Hall deep the entire warm up session smile

Hooper, Njoku and Willies are 6'4" guys, Bryant is 6'5". Just keep it high, Bake.

Exactly who I would have picked.

Richardson has to play with his hair on fire. Our LBer's are going to have to cheat back to cover up their inability to...err...cover...

Heck, play a 5-1-5 defense if you have to.

there is no curse. LeBron removed it and that is why we have started to suck less.

Because he has covid apparently after all. I would expect he will be re-added after game

Schefter just said the Browns were out in the hotel parking lot this morning putting the TEs through scheming walk throughs.
