I don't like it, but this is textbook roughing the passer now. Jones landed his full weight on the QB.

I agree

The ball was loose.

I think changes are going to be made to the rule.

I've stood in our stadium and watched, while other Browns fans booed Our Team.
I've never added my voice to that chorus.

I've walked out of FirstEnergy Stadium in silence, in victory, and in defeat.
But I've never booed My Team, even when they've played like a pile of Dawg crap.

Never.

I just can't do such a thing.
I'm not hard-wired to do such a thing.

I'm also not one to dictate to others how they should express their support for My team, but I'll say this:
After 50+ years of fandom, I still want to see CLE represent the same way they did when I was a kid- when Frank Ryan, Gary Collins, and Jim Brown gave us the memories that we all share.

I didn't boo them when I was a kid.... and I won't boo those Browns who play for us now.
Others may follow a different path. I won't dog them for the way they express themselves. Each unto his own.

But speaking for myself- I just can't do it.
It's not in my 'Elf DNA.'

Face it, the refs got the word to throw flags for nearly any type of his on a QB.

Give it another few years and teams will have to count to "4 alligator" before being able to rush the QB.


If everybody had like minds, we would never learn.

Little velcro patch on the QB jersey you pull off for a sack. smile

I keep trying to console myself with this fact: it doesn’t matter if we had beaten NYJ, ATL, or LAC … we ain’t beating Allen or Mahomes anyways lol. They’re good.

We need the fans to get back to throwing dog bones, batteries and bottles at the refs and opposing players.

KC fans took a page right out of our playbook with the bottle/can throwing....


How lame. They need to take some lessons from Browns fans.

In most northern countries in Europe they have cameras to identify spectators who throw things at players. I don’t know the rules in US but in my country you can be reported to the police for such things.

You just can't help yourself can you?


Intoducing for The Cleveland Browns, Quarterback Deshawn "The Predator" Watson. He will also be the one to choose your next head coach.

j/c:

Just finished watching the Chiefs/Raiders game. TE Kelce had himself quite a game. He's obviously an excellent player. Raiders RB Josh Jacobs had some really nice runs.

Not a bad game at all to watch!

I agree

I know that's the rule now, I just don't see what the heck he was supposed to do? He stripped the ball and has it in his right hand... is he supposed to drop the ball so that he can brace his fall? These game-changing calls really need to be reviewed. These "full body weight" calls need to be based on a realistic interpretation of what alternatives the player actually has, in this case, he had none. JMO
