Willing to bet the player is an olineman.
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.

Willing to bet the player is an olineman. Schefter said it’s an offensive linemen and a receiver. A bigger problem is that there is more to come in the next few days. This isn’t going to end today.

I completely agree. Also significant is that these are positive tests, not close contacts. There's no way this isn't an outbreak.

Sadly I think that's the biggest problem. I think the team can handle a good amount of adversity and overcome some of the coaching issues. Losing talent off the field is more problematic. Hell - what a victory it will be if we overcome! Next man up ... just win.
The more things change the more they stay the same.

Serious question....why can't these coaches be virtual on gameday? It shouldn't be that big of a technological hurdle for him to still be able to call plays.
SMH...Cleveland just can't have anything nice.

ummm, I'm sorry... that's not 1 significant player(and one not). That's 2 key players.

I feel so bad for Bitonio. Played on crap teams so many years, finally gets to the playoffs and can’t play.

"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."

Coach Stefanski on gameday

Anyone know why he can't just coach from the box above? Legit question. Seriously though, if we're not going to field a team its almost not worth watching the game.

So if he's above in a glass box by himself I don't see what the issue is.

LOL - The Rish will be upset with this news as well. KS just doesn't prioritize winning...

Sorry, most people know I am usually an optimistic guy, but we are screwed.
Covid has finally beaten the Browns. There's no shame in it, but they aren't going to be able to dig their way out of this, sorry.

Opens up TOO many chances for cheating. Signal stealing by the other side, bookies, ... Watching feeds of players/coaches on the other side for clues to game options, signals, etc...

Glass box, isolation, I'd be totally fine with him coming to the stadium with a mask on. I'll leave it at that.

... there goes Joe Thomas, the best there ever was in this game.

Why wouldn’t Callahan be the head coach Sunday? He has experience, and even coached in a Super Bowl.
