Browns News. ... Comes up, Chiefs, SI.com, moves to arrowheadpride.com headline. Browns linebacker claims he "will be ready" for Travis Kelcey.
Turned out it is JOK basically saying he's watched tape and the team will be ready and he will be ready for the game, so I'm not certain if it's not a reference to the wound that required stitches in his head 17 days before kickoff. Any news on the condition of Jeremiah Owusu Koramoahs' forehead cut?
Can Deshaun Watson play better for the Browns, than Baker Mayfield would have? ... Now the Games count.

He's been a full participant in practices for like a week. He's fine. The stitches are a non-issue.

Still no official word on Mathieu. "We'll see... we'll see... we'll see" tells me that we WILL see -- Mathieu.

Any updates on our kicker? I read they have until 4pm today to make a determination.
I think the importance of a reliable kicker is so underrated by so many people. Missed easy FG's and especially missed XP's are huge momentum killers. I would love to see the records for games where one team missed an XP or FG under 40 yards when the other team didn't.

I just looked at the box score for the Cowboys/Bucs game. The Bucs kicker was 1-1 on FG and 4-4 on XP. The Cowboys K was 3-5 on FG and 2-3 on XP.

They have until 4pm today to decide on Mathieu. They may well opt to put him on the gameday roster just-in-case. I don't think it matters to us, though. We're going to prepare the same no matter who that Safety is back there; our chances of success when going deep just go up if it isn't Mathieu.
It appears that his backup actually grades out almost the same as him, according to PFF, so it probably *really* doesn't matter.
Their FS, Daniel Sorensen, however, grades out akin to Sendejo. We should be going after him.

Matheiu is activated … rumors of OBJ being inactive. Tough blows

I dont think the offense relaying on OBJ is as big as or revamped D showing up. We will easily get by without OBJ. We need the new D to look like a new D

Odell Beckham Jr. looked good at practice this week but didn’t take full reps, and hasn’t had any contact all summer - which is why Browns want to see how he feels pre-game today before making any decisions on his status vs. the Chiefs, per source. It will be about how OBJ feels. https://twitter.com/AdamSchefter/status/1436992413663436800

I don't want to sound conspiratorial, it's just it always caught my attention that KS always choose his words really carefully and shut down the discussion during follow up questioning, all the while obj hasn't seen contact or even many full drills, all off season.
I don't think it's a huge deal. While obj is someone that needs to be accounted for, it's our run game that makes the offense tick, and Mayfield is best when he's distributing.
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.

I'm not sure our opponents view it that way. OBJ has been injury plagued. But when one looks at a healthy OBJ, I believe our opponents feel they have to game plan for him. Yes, our running game is great. And if you can keep KC's scoring in check that's wonderful. But if KC starts lighting up the scoreboard or even if you think they will start lighting up the scoreboard, you're not going to score 38 points running the ball. If one wants to get a glimpse at how stefanski plans for KC we can take a glimpse of last season. Last year when we faced KC Baker threw 37 times. Baker rushed three times. Not by design mind you. Our RB's? They rushed for a total of 19 times. Chubb with 13 and Hunt with 6. We are a team who game plans according to our opponents. Sometime it's the pass and sometimes it's the run. While I wouldn't go as far as calling it a conspiracy I would call it a mind game. A good HC will keep the opposition guessing. They will never tip their hand when they have that option. It's much like developing a strategy in a chess game. Stefanski does it well. He's kept everyone guessing about OBJ by design. And it's rare to see a HC with the ability to frustrate the press so gracefully!

I am 100 percent sure that the plan was to keep OBJ under wraps until the season started.
As they would say….. Release the Kraken…
There will be no playoffs. Can’t play with who we have out there and compounding it with garbage playcalling and worse execution. We don’t have good skill players on offense period. Browns 20 - Bears 17.

Since Odell's a scratch, how does this work? Did we bring a PS player along, or are we a receiver short in the line-up?

If he was this involved week1, I imagine that we'll be seeing quite a bit from him (even despite an OBJ return) throughout the year. It'll be fun to watch him progress throughout the year because he clearly adds another element to this O, as others have pointed out. He was just running by DBs, and probably would've had a TD if he hadn't turned around on that one overthrow.
Sadly, this might make Higgins' days numbered. There are only so many reps to go around, and OBJ wasn't even out there yesterday.

Let's not be ridiculous! OBJ is the VIP of the offense! And he'll be back as soon as his diva muscle relaxes enough to let him play.
