They have gone "all in" for winning the Lombardi at home this year.
If they flame out beforehand, I will laugh so hard.
Taking on CLE #13 is a step in the wrong direction.
Oh, well. Not our problem any more.
He's now your migraine to medicate.
Good luck.

The Rams? Idiotic choice IMO. They run a similar offense/philosophy to ours .. and they already have Kupp, Woods, Johnson, and Higbee. Strange.

The Rams? Idiotic choice IMO. They run a similar offense/philosophy to ours .. and they already have Kupp, Woods, Johnson, and Higbee. Strange. Maybe not a idiotic choice. First, we don't know what choices he actually had. I doubt that every team in the league wanted him and then of those that did, how much were they willing to pay him? When factoring that, it very well might have been the best choice. Secondly, Stafford is a very good QB that people tend to downplay since he was strapped with the Lions for the last 7-8 years (or whatever). Receivers can do far worse than having Stafford throwing them the ball. If Stafford wanted him and the two find a "mojo", it might be a wonderful pairing. If not, the Rams move on and OBJ goes to second rate receiver status.

Yep - Rams were one of the teams I mentioned initially - and that was strictly based on Stafford and "Splash Play" ability. He's a very good QB, can buy time and might find OBJ on a busted play where OBJ is probably at his most dangerous.
As others mentioned - it is good that we don't have any more drama of him playing for a team we meet in the regular season. ...
The more things change the more they stay the same.

I agree... wouldn't be surprised if he does well with Stafford... he's got a big arm and has a tendency for those big bomb plays... I also wouldn't be surprised if OBJ flames out in LA.... as others have said, I think he went there partly because the money and it's a SB contender.... but I also think the glitz and lights were a huge draw

Can care less what he does for them. He's there pretty much to pick up slack if there is an injury. He will learn there playbook, of course he will pretend to be a studious unselfish player cause its just for a year. OBJ seems to become sour after time elapses then the real OBJ emerges but there is not enough time for that to happen.
MY HOPE...we end up playing the RAMS in the SB and win the chip

I agree. OBJ is not a #1 WR any more

It will be great when the Browns are going to the super bowl to play the Buccaneers and OBJ is home watching in LA. Make it happen.

With Woods’ injury they’re gonna need him! It’s still Kupp’s offense I presume, but OBJ is gonna have to be better than he was here

Unless I have direct experience with someone. I never judge them on a personal level unless their actions speak clearly.
Odell maybe is a good guy? I don't know. Many teammates speak highly of him.
As a Brown's player it never worked. Injury. Chemistry. It just did not happen.
The stunt with his father? If he requested a trade and Berry said no. Maybe it had to happen that way. No way of knowing the whole story.
Conspiracies about dropping balls to get out of town. I don't buy any of that.
Glad he is gone because the offense functions better.
What ever happens with him now means zero to me.

Too bad all this gaspy note and breathless praise isn't reciprocal. Just another guy to beat. Might learn this offense and run it better than you did here. It remains lame and pathetic (JMHO smh) that your daddy is in charge of your lousy PR and QC analysis on free media. Seems wrong on several levels that he should even be allowed to have truck with the word "Believeland." Just regret his handful of catches and headaches. Full steam ahead, mateys! Unleash the Elvish!

Well the Brown's fans welcomed him here like no other as he is not getting the same love out in LA. He joined one of the best teams going right now but injuries can change that and they are in the toughest division in the NFL - AFC North is the 2nd toughest. He is not going to be there long enough to start any major negative vibes. Our 6th round pick has shown to be more valuable to us than OBJ - We got jobbed on that trade. Peppers +

It seems at the end at least OBJ was trying to be classy. We see where that got him. He's gone but people can't seem to move on from it. Since everyone knows he wasn't adding anything to this offense, why all the hate that he is gone? Shouldn't we all be grateful he's gone? Let me guess, we're glad he's gone but not the way he went about it? Jesus Christ people.
Most of you got exactly what you wanted and yet are still b!+ching about it. It's hilarious!

OBJ is gone and Baker still played like hot garbage. It's time to find another victim to blame as an excuse when Baker plays like hot garbage. Maybe the coaching staff or another player on the Browns. I'm sure all of you will come up with something.
When Baker plays good he can be good. When he doesn't play well it looks horrendous.

Interesting you mention Wilson, because he's hot off a hand injury (don't remember if it was his throwing hand or not). His poor performance gives him an out, especially considering his body of work... which brings us back to Baker.
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.
