Yeah, that game was pathetic. Baker complaining about the play calling being too conservative. His fans saying we needed to open things up. Well, Stefanski did open things up where Baker was supposed to make reads like a top qb makes each week. He couldn't do it and then threw yet another temper tantrum and took his ball and went home.

Yeah...if only Baker would have taken the effort to block Watt rather than leaving a former DT at LT on an island with an All-Pro ED.

You once again brought up Baker on a thread NOT AT ALL dedicated to Baker. Shocking.

j/c…

That was awesome! Thanks.

I love that Nick Chubb hired a film crew. That is hilarious.

That was pretty damn cool.

I hope that behind the scenes this team is pumped and ready to go. The most non vocal athlete in Cleveland sports history is releasing Instagram montages.

I hope it means something and we'll see it on the field on Sunday.

I think all the negativity from the Watson and Baker drama has galvanized the team. Even Chubb was talking the other day about "it's us against the world." I think this team is ready to prove the world wrong and shut some people up.

He should have said, "Haslam put us in the position that it's us against the world."

That’s a cool video from Chubb

Ty, That's my RB!

Go Browns!!!

This is a pretty large spread with a backup QB. I get it is a home game and the Jets, but still.....

Joe Flacco.

I follow the Jets pretty closely. It's become a little bit of a hobby of mine since we took Mayfield over Darnold and Stefanski over Saleh. I also have a couple of close buddies who are Jets fans.

Let me just say I wouldn't have been surprised if the spread was bigger. The GM has done a decent job of transforming the roster but made the one error you can't make at QB with Wilson. And it looks like Saleh wasn't ready and the staff he built is pretty bad. They are a pretty bad team and organization right now. I don't know that Douglas and Saleh will survive the year.

We should win this game easily.

Elijah Moore is a playmaker. And they have good receiving RBs … I dont know much about their defense thouhg

Jinxed it.

1-1 heading into a Thursday night game.

And injured OTs (Becton and Brown)

Myles will probably/hopefully take the team sack record.

Good point. I forgot they also lost Brown.

Any news on other injuries/concerns with the Jets?

Backup factor canceled out?

Can he return punts?

It would be nice. I know nothing about this dude.

Herb drew the short straw.

No punt returning news in the reports I just found. Felton scares the crap out of me back there.

Herb at least saved us a turnover yesterday. I really do hope we can find a DB or RB or something that can return a punt

I have to say I've not been a big Herb Miller fan but he got mad points yesterday for saving that fumble.

It's sickening to me that somebody on the coaching staff thinks that guy is a punt returner. Felton is a notch above Schwartz as for a guy who shouldn't even be on the team. He brings nothing.

He has not done a lot he he’s still young. I agree with those who opined that he can’t track a punt. It sure doesn’t look like he can, but he can make a couple moves if he gets a chance.

He should pay a guy to kick punts to him in his spare time.

I bet miller ends up back on the PS

More like Nike hired a production crew.

That was not Nike level production.

No? The Swoosh logo was prominent in that. I could be wrong, though, maybe Chubb really did hire a crew.

He has probably done that. I am a baseball player. I have thought about hitting the guy fly balls. Tracking a baseball is harder. In football you can usually settle to a depth that the punter can kick the ball. In baseball you more or less have to settle somewhere in between. You also usually have to move laterally a greater distance to catch a baseball. In football, the mark on the hash and a punters preference in which direction he likes to kick the ball comes in to play to some degree Also, in football the ball travels at a slower pace. With a baseball it moves faster giving the player less time to make the mental calculation to decide on what point they need to get to in order to make the catch.

Whatever the problem is, we don't need a trainee back there looking like a deer in the headlights, circling around trying to field the ball. Like I said, if the ball is kicked right at him he does fine, but once he has to move on his feet and start calculating latitude and longitude the guy is in trouble.

Maybe it is the way he moves to the ball. He seems to be a choppy runner. If his head is bouncing around while trying to track a punt, the ball is going to look like it is bouncing around in the sky. It's hard to catch if the ball looks like it is bouncing up and back, side to side while you are trying to get to the catch point.

The best 50-yard logo in the NFL.....easily.
