FINALLY! Let’s get this party started
That’s superb ... I’m amped
wow, i thought for sure mitchell had the starting gig on lock for the first few games.
That’s a surprise to me ... Mitchell seemed like the 2nd CB to me too
Yeah, that Greedy ahead of Money Mitch is a surprise. Also curious is that Avery is inactive today. Chad Thomas will likely be the 4th pass rusher behind Chris Smith.
The wording of that seems odd.
Titans at Browns inactives
Titans: LB Reggie Gilbert, OL Kevin Pamphile, CB Tye Smith, RB Dalyn Dawkins, LB David Long, OL Nate Davis, DL Matt Dickerson
Browns: QB Garrett Gilbert, WR Taywan Taylor, LB Sione Takitaki, LB Genard Avery, OL Austin Corbett, OL Wyatt Teller, TE Ricky Seals-Jones
Initially, I didn't read it as carefully as you. Yes, that does seem odd.
Also, I read last night that Henry does a lot of his work outside. Data says he wants to get outside the tackles for big gains. That will place a high physical demand on the DBs. Raising questions about the decision to start Williams.
We'll see what it all means shortly.
The Titans will be missing the starting RG now as well
j/c:
Greedy Williams is starting over Mitchell according to the Browns. The intern depth chart strikes again.
So fricken excitied! My friend is at the Game! She so lucky!
Same here eve ... and the scene from the stadium looks crazy
Get your popcorn ready!!
bro im bout to kill my chips and dip before the game even starts
Praying we're not let down... let's go Browns
Praying we're not let down... let's go Browns
why is Avery inactive though?
he was pretty good last season. thought for sure he'd get a decent amount of reps
Yeah, that was a surprise inactive
Damn, Freddie needs to stay out of the kitchens. He's put on some weight!
why is Avery inactive though?
he was pretty good last season. thought for sure he'd get a decent amount of reps
I heard he was limited in pre-season except for the last game.
They say he isn't quite ready yet.
Damn, Freddie needs to stay out of the kitchens. He's put on some weight!
Man I don’t know what I’ll do if we come out and look like poo. This first game is so important to set the tone
Yeah, I expect us to come out a bit slow .. I think it’s just important to win this first one and find a way to get it done
I think the team will start off slow and get better as the season progresses. We will see soon though...
Back after the game. Peace everyone
Discord usually pretty quiet during home games but hop in and say hi!
That's my expectation as well. We've got the talent, but they haven't had the time to really put it all together (on offense).
As for the defense, I am expecting domination.
Nate burleson picking us with Seahawks for Super Bowl . Nate was def inspired by his time here. Always pro Cleveland
Here we go Brownies, here we go!
You know you’re big time when you Nantz and Romo calling your game
FREE 1st week of NFL SUnday ticket on Dierectv! I get to watch!
GO BROWNS!
Sitting next to Titans fan at the bar. She's really nice. I'm gonna have to be chill.
I'm a bit "worried" about the team coming in too hyped. Been awhile since the starters have played 4 quarters at game speed.
Love the starting lineups
Big test against this defense for baker
Sitting next to Titans fan at the bar. She's really nice. I'm gonna have to be chill.
We've waited too long for this to be chill... you can offer her a shoulder to cry on after we destroy them!!!!
Defense will win this. Let’s hope the run D improved. OL just don’t get Baker killed!
Time for our new & improved Browns to kick some butt!!!
My eyes are getting so blurry I have my zoom on my chromebook at 175%.
This is projbably one of the most anticipated games in a long time... dear lord let us play well...
Vrabel needs to cut the stash
Two ugly looking coaches haha
Freddie looks like he shaved for the game.
Titans win toss and defer
No half assin in here .... if your gonna do it .. do it right ....
LETS GOOOOOOOOoooooooo
Titans win toss and defer
Time to see if the offense lives up to the hype...
Freddie looks like he shaved for the game.
Like two bowling balls stacked. Or a snowman
Nice weather for the game, about 70 and cloudy with no chance of rain.
Let's see... got up, played 18..smoked a cigar..drove with the top down on a perfect, low humidity day... have beer, chips and Browns football = perfect day
Vrabel needs to cut the stash
He's channeling his inner Jeff Fisher. Let him be. At least until after the game.
omg...couldve been a disaster
Wow... that was almost a disaster
First throw into triple coverage
Gee, Boy like the D set that one up, tip to dropped int
plsy #2, is a catch by Higgans.
wow i like that play to landry
Nice play there... csame thing as a run
to the 9
backside block, that was a 50 50 call,
Higins going to have a year with Odell and Landry on field
yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi guys!! Long time no see...
I don't want to work, I just want to bang on the drum all day!
Statement drive !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That was an awesome drive! Nice balance. Looks like we still have kicking issues though.
Here we go with the Kickers
Are we really gonna do this again
I’m so tired of bad kicking
Our O line looks great so far.
can we find someone to kick
kicking is gonna be the death of us
Final score. Browns something. Titans one point more
How freaking hard is it to kick, call that chick up from the soccer team
Missed extra point, August 26th,
September 8.
dude can't make a 37 yard FG basically? SMH
Kicking is a buzzkill to our drives
We kept the hammer because we don’t plan on punting this year
OK Missing the XP stinks, but how GREAT is it that the REFS tried to screw us already and we responded with a big play to cancel it out?????
WOOF WOOF!
kicking is gonna be the death of us
Not if we go for two every time.
Final score. Browns something. Titans one point more
lol
How dare that scrub wear number 4. Can’t even kickoff to the endzone
For sure! I teared up a little it was such a joy lol
"The Browns on that drive never even faced a 3rd down"
!!!
Yep, even with the huge penalty we did it.
Should have brought in another kicker during camp. I knew this guy was not over his "mental block" like coaches said
How dare that scrub wear number 4. Can’t even kickoff to the endzone
Kitchens said it's by design cuz the returner doesn't tend ot make it back to the 25.
Replay, Vernone pulled up
Whitehead roughed the passer with a missle shoulder hit at the very latest after the ball came out too.
3 personal fouls in 5 minutes....
NFL needs to fix their dang rules lol
wide open
and ward with P1ss poor tackling
So much for the defense being good
Our secondary is an issue
Man what happened with that one... was that wards fault?
wide open
and ward with P1ss poor tackling
I have no doubt when it comes to tackling he is playing tentative due the concussions
We gotta get a play here on D
Man, the Dolphins look BAD
speed on defense looks good, just need better decision making
.. time to get anojther touchdown
Lucky Lewis dropped that.
suprised the ref didn't throw a flag for roughing the passer on that last play
I think Ward thought he was getting help from Randall.
Wish we had picked up the Titans new kicker.
Held Tenn to a FG on their first drive. 6-3 with the Browns missed extra point,
I don't know who scored the rushing Td for the Browns because it was a pile push up the middle and about 4-5 Browns jerseys crossed the goalline.
Who started at RG ???
Hilliard with the TD
Kush at RG
Come on O ... let’s keep it balanced
Wish we had picked up the Titans new kicker.
Was just thinking that as he said has made 21 straight kicks.
Seibert is a big time liability of course
they really getting on teams with the double team block
I hate the return. I’d be ok to get rid of it
i agree a 1000%...just down the freaking ball, get it to the 25
jeez, there's a penalty on every kick return for all teams, just get rid of it if they're not gonna figure out the rules.
All day to throw so far. Awesome!
I hate kitchens play calling. Run the damn ball dude
Yeah, we gotta run it too
played the run all the way
We can’t just line up and run it. If it’s a run it has to be a gadget
baker needs to take some juice off of that
Njoku still can’t play between the 20s
Doesn't surprise me he didn't catch it.
jesus christ o line what are yall doing?
Kitchens going to get baker killed
OK..baker.. take some heat off the ball.. and way to go RT
We kept both the wrong kickers
Not sure how we look right now
Baker might not last the season
74 and 72, on the right side, double team, both got ran by on that sack.
double Right tackles, one of them recovered the ball on the one.
Our right side is quite bad, thats an issue
well atleast we got the bounce
Between kitchens infatuation with passing, our online not blocking and baker holding the ball for days. Baker will not last
Our OL is a much bigger iss than our K.
All I know is Peyton had a horrible line his whole career and killed defenses
One thing I didnt like about kitchens play calling last season is he is to pass happy
Yes, don't know why we aren't running more.
Calm down and let them play. First game, there is bound to be issues to address.
gotta work for that henry!!
Geez, Ravens are up 3 TDs on Miami.
Mia in full tank mode already
Still waiting to see some pressure on a play that is t a screen
Okay, on them ... punt time
Ok good stop, now let’s reset on offense
Great pressure by D that whole drive.
Gotta have some balance again
Njoku for 20 or soo ... good throw/catch
There was our token running play
Our OL is a much bigger iss than our K.
Bull.
If the game were only 1 qrt long, with only 2 minutes to go the titans only need a Fg to tie, because of that missed XP. if he made it , they need a TD.
ravens destroying dolphins
skins up on eagles
vikings over falcons
We don’t use middle of field nearly enough. Njoku and Landry should be eating there
Big play coming up IMO ... end of the 1st
Decent game so far, they're doing about as well as I thought.
O like is playing well, 'cept for a few plays here and there.
Do we try to run it here?
On the missed PAT, it looked like the ball was tilted back too far on the hold to me... anybody else see that?
Bad pass, woulda been a first down, probably.
Wow - nick foles ruled OUT
So we run once per series
How can we make this on the browns
Garrett getting owned all game and now he had to get his name called
The run D is looking good. Bad penalty.
We are really killing ourselves
Garrett punched Delanie Walker, thus the personal foul.
All of our energy is gone
We have no discipline, as usual.
Reading too many press clippings.
Well the REFS still hate us.
No flags, nothing past 10
I hate what football has become
Nick Foles, out with a shoulder,
Randall blew up the screen, among others
next play.
Randall knocked the ball away , and they threw a flag called it a d holding
I’m tired of getting the short end with refs
WHAT????? I'M SO SICK OF THIS CRAP,C HALLENGE!!!! GET THESE FAKE REFS OFF THE FIELDDDDD
19 YEARS OF THIS CRAP
Where’s the awesome pass rush we are supposed to have
RANDALL made an AMAZING play but instead THEY get a first down? WTF how is this even a real spot anymore?
The penalties in this game have really ruined it
Where’s the awesome pass rush we are supposed to have
They've been in the backfield all game? If not for the Refs the Titans would have zero yards.
what the hell with these flags?
So much for a disciplined team
This team is so undisciplined. Same old browns
OMG... just flags all over the place
Wow. Penalties are hurting bad.
it was a terrible call on a pass int, but they said holding so it wouldn't be reviewable, it was an over the back knock the ball away,
he didn't have time to hold.
in other news, Miami is down 4 tds at home to balt.
Roughing on Sheldon Richardson, the first was on Whitehead.
this is the 2nd of the game.
That HAD to be holding on the Titans right?
How about a flag on them?
You can tell which team played in preseason
Garrett getting handled all game
garrett needs to do something
Baseball has more contact than this

yeah, should've been PI at worst, that shows they're doing it on purpose.
WTF IS HAPPENING? HOW IS THIS ALLOWED?
This is collusion, plain and simple right in front of our eyes.
What happened to our pass rush ... titans OL is controlling us
What happened to our pass rush ... titans OL is controlling us
THEY ARE HOLDING EVERY PLAY.
Then when we DO get to the QB they call personal foul.
omg just gave them another free 1st down
I’m not liking a Freddie kitchens coached team
We are legit destroying ourselvs
OMG.. I would cuss the defense out
Give them some more game reps off Freddie. That worked
Our team is not the good. Let's get realistic.
Cleveland being outcoached.
Everything titans suck at we let them do well
Missing Greg Williams right now
98 got driven like a new lincoln
Cleveland being outcoached.
Preach
10 to 6, Tenn. with the lead.
Garrett has been a non factor so far.
I will say the call on Randall was crap.
I stand by what I said. Kitchens needs a short leash. He looks like I thought. Over his head. First game yeah but he’s the one who gave them the whole preseason off
Man, this is hard to take with the flags
Same Browns not meeting expectations when there are expectations. These penalties are stupid!
that call on randall was BS.
but other than that, we were completely undisciplined on defense.
offense has to answer
I will say the call on Randall was crap.
Drive would have been done.
Here we go with passing until we get sacked
Ok we need to answer here!
Same Browns not meeting expectations when there are expectations. These penalties are stupid!
Team is playing great.
Only mess ups so far was Njoku's drop (and he's one of my fav players, wearing his jersey right now so hard to admit), and the missed XP.
All the rest of the game has been Refs.
Put it in your pockets refs
like hilliard being the KR right now
Incomplete ... Harris hurt
Take playcalling away from fat boy
No reason not to run for a yard
WHY ARE WE NOT RUNNING THE BALL
Please bring back carthon
Why didn’t we just run it on 2nd
This game has a bad feel to it
wait, did we just pass 2 times in a row when we just needed to get 1 stinking yard???
So far Freddie coaching like a position coach who used to play qb
There's no way you don't run it on 2nd and 2.
3rd and 1 and you play in the shotgun . This is what drives me crazy about kitchens
I agree that Kitchens is getting a serious lesson.
We’re making it way too tough on oursleves
And they get ball at half
I agree. Cant stand when a rookie head coach calls the plays
Defense better show something
Lots of concern on our end IMO
Of course he just got rid of it
Play calls are fine. QB is going for the homerun everytime he drops back and either taking a sack or waisting the play. Team needs to settle down and play with discipline, that includes checking down occasionally or changing to a run play.
Feels,like the same old Browns... just fancier... come on
They always get more yards after we “tackle” them
Our dline looks like a joke
They’re WAY better coached right now
Whelp back to your regularly scheduled browns season
Titans putting on a strategy clinic.
Tackle him forward for 4 more yards
That was way too easy for them
They are doing what we should be doing....wearing down the defense with the running game
Regular season isn't the period where you get your timing down. Someone made a bad call...
glad he didnt make the catch cause he was open
Where the HECK is our pass rush
Ok now come on offense.... need to score going into half
Garrett being handled 1 on 1 by third string LT.
Yeah, Garrett is very disappointing righ tnow
Need a drive here wake up
Backup rg and LT and they shutting down our supposed pro bowl line
guys, Garrett isn't even being double teamed, and getting schooled by the backup
Wow thank goodness Mariota made a bad throw.
Reality check
It's 10-6 in the 2nd quarter
Hilliard having a great game!
Hilliard sneaks a return,
guys, Garrett isn't even being double teamed, and getting schooled by the backup
If Garrett doesn't time the snap, he's done.
Garret has problems with big LTs. He is barely getting up field.
Looks like Greg Williams knew Garrett’s weakness and tried to hide it. Not keep him back
Boy, we just get no OL play
8 penalties for 96 yards....and its 4 minutes left in the 2nd quarter
Five personal foul penalties
I’d be ok with letting kitchens go before it’s too late
Robinson is freaking gone
Wow Robinson. No excuse there, that was DUMB.
Unreal how bad this team is. Worst it’s ever been
Ejected out of game! We are in deep trouble
wow, getting thrown out the game.
and he deserved it
Kicked out. I don't blame them.
What the hell???
5 personal foul calls. and the starting LT is thrown out.
Trade for Trent and be done
Team is crumbling under expectations.
Horrible coaching. Just horrible. We just lost our starting left tackle. This is what happens when you hire a rookie head coach.
Face mask better be called
Wow... just stupid penalties... come on coach... get them together...
Robinsin kicked a helmut from his back on his back after the play.
long pause
Greg Robinson is ejected
Going to see who that back up LT is
2nd and 23, 3rd and 13, Kendall Lamm in at Lt.
All this hype and we are playing like this
what flag, he didnt even get hit in the head
Where is the helmet to helmet flag?
Glad we have a good punter
Ugh, Njoku again with the dropsies
WTH happened to the browns offense from the 1st drive? seems so long ago...
Can I change my prediction for this year? This reminds me of 2008.
Boo Birds....
The NFL is almost unwatchable these days. Flags on every play
Yea Freddy tell us about how the Browns are ready
Njoku took a helmut shot to the back of his neck, while kneeling down forward to not catch a pass short over the middle, on 3rd and 13.
Call said 5 personal foul penalties already against Cleveland.
Just Win Baby!
I don’t remember a more undisciplined team in my lifetkme
I am incredibly disappointed in our lack of discipline.
Freddie better chew some ass at halftime.
The NFL is almost unwatchable these days. Flags on every play
Amen to that. In fact, I have already lost interest.
WTH happened to the browns offense from the 1st drive? seems so long ago...
I'm more concerned with the Defense, it was supposed to be a strength.
Also, too many stupid players, so undisciplined.
Myles Garrett with a sack, though held.
gets up a lil right leg hoppy,
I am incredibly disappointed in our lack of discipline.
Freddie better chew some ass at halftime.
My fear is he doesn't know how to reel it in.
Garrett baby! He got held for the 70th time and still got the sack! woof woof!
richardson excellent play
Good D play on that stop.
Ravens are up 35-3 and just faked a punt from their own part of the field.
Lamm actually looked decent in preseason . Hope he’s a diamond in rough. Robinson shouldn’t take another snap for this team
Ravens are up 35-3 and just faked a punt from their own part of the field.
They aren't playing against a professional football team tho. Dolphins want that first pick.
Ravens are up 35-3 and just faked a punt from their own part of the field.
Easy to look good when the other side lays down.
2 minute warning , Titans set to punt after a completion on the middle screen late under pressure from 3 sides, gains back half of the previous sack yardage,
This isn't looking so good but we still have 2 minutes before the half and then the rest of the game to come back. Don't give up just yet.
WTH happened to the browns offense from the 1st drive? seems so long ago...
I'm more concerned with the Defense, it was supposed to be a strength.
They are getting worn down because our offense is to predictable,which would be , pass,pass, and pass.
What an unreal punt ... that is a play of the game
That literally gives THEM points and not us
Hubbard is straight trash
And we were going to pass
Kitchens is the worst coach we’ve had
so....i think everybody needs to re-pick our W-L prediction
This is a pile of garbage!
No that is on kitchens for calling a pass play
Kitchens is the worst coach we’ve had
Pat Shurmur was the worst.
They need to go into the locker room and take a look in the mirror. You ain't what you think you were. Figure it out.
Can anyone figure out why we're passing so much?
It’s all fun and games until someone punches you in the mouth.
we just took an ass whippin.. bad play calls,, bad play.. way to go freddy
Kitchens is the worst coach we’ve had
Pat Shurmur was the worst.
Not even close
so....i think everybody needs to re-pick our W-L prediction
You got that right.
I wonder if Baker is hurt?
I gotta get out of this thread before the wrist slitting starts. later all.
We have a lot of answering to do
OK... we can split that one
I gotta get out of this thread before the wrist slitting starts. later all.
Probably the right call.
Be well.
We are so overrated. Lucky to win 3
We’re good on social media
I mean, If the refs swing back our way we can easily win in the 2nd half.
Was just hoping for a slaughter to really reinforce the team .Oh well.
LMFAO, Clowns forgot they actually HAD TO PLAY FOOTBALL to get to the playoffs!
Who is 74, 74 gave that up.
Pass protection. Baker is sore
Best I can tell Bakers soreness is either
a Right hamstring, he held it with his and on the replay
a Right elbow upper arm, it got hit by the defenders hand while about to pass,
or a left shoulder, that's what he landed on.
12-10 bad guys after the int.
... Right side pass protection!!!!!!
Kitchens is the worst coach we’ve had
While I agree this is some bad coaching considering this is his FIRST GAME calling him the worst ever is a little much don't you think?
Can anyone figure out why we're passing so much?
That's what kitchens did last season...I'm not suprised, just ticked off that he wont learn to stop trying to pass 50 times a game
Halftime will be a test of just who and how good the leadership of this group is.
guys
the only reason this aint a blowout is because mariota is missing wide open receivers.
9 penalties already....WTF!
how was that one throw not intentional grounding?
Missed XP, penalties, safety, awful
Browns offense, has done little since the opening drive.
Offense gets the ball on their own 13,
1 minute before the half
Titans D getting confident....where's Chubb?
Problem is: we cant kick a FG
Told everyone not to be so optimistic. I said I was cautious about it. We are the Browns until we prove we are not the same Browns. We are the same old same old in the 1st half.
As bad as we've been we're one play away from taking the lead...
Let's see what kind of halftime adjustments that Freddie makes
Let's see what kind of halftime adjustments that Freddie makes
Don't forget he's in school also. There's stuff to be dealt with that he's never had to address.
Horrible offiating in this one!
we are getting scrweed as well
F these refs! Hammer them with trash!
Football is beginning to suck...
Can we possibly get ONE call?
Baker has no clue what’s he’s doing out there. Holding the ball forecer
Where's all Freddies rage now?
Guy almost had a heart attack every bad play in preseason.
Now he's sitting there like a bump on a log.
What the hell have they been doing since March
This was not worth wasting the time out
Worst officiating I've seen in awhile.
The opening drive was pretty good.
Is he still coaching the Browns...sure look like his signature...
Yep, hope the staff plays it right.
2nd half better look alot better
Way to think of the team OBJ....what a stupid play....
Worst half of football since the 51-0 beating in 99
sorry guys. officiating only blew one call and thats the randall holding.
other than that, we are playing like hot ass garbage
Opening drive feels like a different t game on a different week
We need to get a new officiating crew in the 2nd half.
one word to describe our play so far ...... DUMB.
Score at the half:
Browns: 6
The Ghost of Phil Dawson: 1
Titans: 2
Tennessee Referees: 10
Browns Discipline: -1000000
The opening drive was pretty good.
And that was pretty much it.
This is looking pretty bad now, but another 2 quarters to go. What else could possibly go wrong?
Nothing to ruin a Sunday like some browns football
The Browns need to actually PLAY SOME FOOTBALL the 2nd half!!!
Factory of sadness dusting off the cobwebs and picking up a day shift
