We have the right staff, if we were healthy this year we'd have a shot at the title. I lost count of how many guys we have had down with one thing or another... Stay the course. Grind out the rest of the season, get healthy, hopefully, add some more talent to the roster... Try to make it happen next year. We should have been destroyed tonight. Laughed off the field. But the guys held tough. That is good coaching.

Woulda coulda shoulda. Losers lose. We are losers.

There was some good effort but not enough playmaking. We’re toast now this season.

Season over. No playoffs.

Valiant effort by the team tonight, but nothing else really matters.

On to next season.

Meh, it is what it is. We still have a chance to win the division, but we need a little help.

Not sure about the staff.. Wouldnt miss Woods a bit.. Why are our DBs ALWAYS 5 yards away from the action and wait to tackle after the catch, while our receivers always have DB's hanging on their backs..

Joe Woods needs to go ASAP. They need a FG and you play them soft and give them plenty of cushion. Should never have lost that game. Not the first time Woods has cost us a game.

Playoff teams that need 3 yards to seal the game most always find a way. Ward making a business decision at the end that let the TE run another 8 yards at end of game was inexcusable as well

Still can win division. Need to get healthy. I would punt the game this Saturday. Play 3rd stringers - may have to anyway.

Browns: 7-7 --> 9-8
- @Packers (L)
- @Steelers (W)
- Bengals (W)

Ravens: 8-6 --> 9-8
- @Bengals (L)
- Rams (L)
- Steelers (W)

Bengals: 8-6 --> 9-8
- Ravens (W)
- Chiefs (L)
- @Browns (L)

Steelers: 7-6-1 --> 7-9-1
- @Chiefs (L)
- Browns (L)
- @Ravens (L)

Easy peasy...

After the INT they give the ball right back to Carr. Should've went for it on 4th and 3 and say the hell with it.

Again, F that kicker. Fire him. I don't ever wanna see him again.

18 players who may never play in the NFL gave it their all tonight. I appreciate the effort. sucks we fell 1 kick short. we are not out of the playoffs yet. just down to almost no margin of error.

They should have gotten more creative on 3rd and 3. It was a typical "we'll put it in our defense's hands" play.

The old adage of prevent defense prevents you from winning still holds true. Same goes for conservative offense when the game is on the line.

Use a high draft pick to get a freaking good field goal kicker.

We all knew this would happen. Playoff Hope's are dead and honestly that the fault of the coaches all year not just this one game. Main focus should now be getting through packers game healthy and beating Steelers and bengals. Especially steelers. We cant let that filth rapist even have a chance at superbowl

He missed a kick. He didn't drop balls, he didn't have any penalties, he didn't call the plays, he didn't miss tackles - all of those things are why we lost, not just a single kick.

I agree 100%. But since it came to that, go for the gusto. Don't give the ball back to them!!

This team is too painful to watch. Then again, there are no meaningful games now. No way this team sees the post season.

I know on social media there will be a lot who will put yet another loss on the defense. Gave up 16 points and had two takeaways. Yes, let's replace Woods.

We are not making the playoffs because of the offense.

Three reasons behind this loss to Las Vegas:

1. The missed FG
2. The shanked punt at the 2:00 warning in the 4th
3. This team's fascination with throwing a 2-yard pass on 3rd and 6


How does a league celebrating its 100th season only recognize the 53 most recent championships?

He has one job. You make that kick and we aren't in that end game situation. Of course everyone has their hand in the loss. He had an opportunity to put points on the board and he blew it. He has missed many other times too.

I don't believe we have the right staff.

Both Kevin Stefanski and Joe Woods are too conservative in their philosophies and don't play to their players strengths. Until this mindset is overcome we're not going to win anything.

The play to Moreau where we had THREE guys not tackle him with 22 seconds left was INEXCUSABLE

I was waiting for them to show the replay, but then I figured it was probably better for myself that they didn't.

Punter has one job too - blame him for the shank. He makes the kick and we're not in that end game situation. He had an opportunity to pin them deeper and blew it. He did the same earlier in the game and last week too.

See how easy that is?
