I agree. You can see the nerves in his face.


My Dad and I were talking about this today on what each other would do if we scored a TD on the last drive. We both said go for 2. Even if we failed, I would have felt better knowing we went for it than not.

BetOnline opened Browns -7.5, and it's currently -7 next week vs. PIT.

That is just ridiculous! I think Cleveland should be favored here. They have so much more to play for.

Scottish Hammer can kick it. He’s got the leg from 65, we need Phil back for the shorter ones.

I don't like our chances, us trying to beat a team that has OWNED us the last 20 years? On the other hand, since it it virtually a playoff game next week, if we can't get fired up for a division rival at home and whoop them, then we deserve to sit at home this winter

An interesting note. It looks like if the Browns win next week... and Buffalo wins... the Browns will be 6th Steelers 4th and play again the next week. If the Dolphins beat the Bills then... Steelers would be 2nd and the Browns 7th.. and would play again next week.

Playing a team 3 times is always tough.. let alone in back to back games. Obviously win is always the plan but I wonder how much matchups even enter into the equation.

I agree. All of a sudden all those receivers are going to test positive ooo

Probably because Vegas already knows that the nfl is going to "find" a bunch more "close" contacts

From a steelers fans view. I'd you could put a number on it, what would the percentage be that the Steelers play thier starters?

Cleveland is favored according to the spread. Browns are -7.

Honestly I don't know. On the one hand it would be nice to sit some guys and get a weeks rest. But you can only sit so many people. Which means a lot of starters will still be playing... and if you are playing guys, you don't want them getting hurt in a game you decided was not important enough to play everyone... plus you really don't want to back in especially against a team you may have to play again in a week

But on the other hand. You try to build momentum, right the ship, knock a rival out of the playoffs and not have to face them again.

Ideally.. you start everyone.. hope to build a lead and sit guys second half.

If it's me..I play the starters. I want nothing to do with the Browns on back to back weeks.

If we make the playoffs, all Browns fans that wanted Indianapolis to win today, need to sit in the corner for the playoffs.

It was reckless for you to want a different result.

I agree w/you. If I was Tomlin and the staff, I’d play everyone. I’d want the momentum and to continue my dominance over Cleveland. Winning this game can still be meaningful

Muni, I certainly feel it but just can't bring myself to say it or type it. wink


Intoducing for The Cleveland Browns, Quarterback Deshawn "The Predator" Watson. He will also be the one to choose your next head coach.
