It's hard for me to believe that we ain't begun to speculate about the schedule yet.. CBS speculates Ravens Steelers Turkey day.. And no we don't play in Europe this year..

I get it. I want it out as soon as you do.

As for guessing, I don't know. We tend to go with division games later in the season. I say we finish in Cincy, last game of the season. A Sunday night flex game.

I like the bye week. We will probably get screwed with a early or late bye. I still don't understand why they can't get all of the byes done in a 3-4 week window.

It wouldn't be hard to shut down an entire conference minus 2 teams each week to allow the network to get their game of the week during the shutdown. If being fair is a goal, you don't need to spread byes over 10-12 weeks. Just get them all done in weeks 8-10 or 11. It isn't that friggen hard.

And I will say you are a high ranking NFL officer.

LOl...if so, forgive me if I wait a few more days before making holel reservations since i like to do that early. Especially if it is a night game and Iwant to stay downtown. Those rooms book fast. I try to beat the rush once hotels know they can start jacking up rates because demand says they can.

You only have a day or two before that happens.

I always think about guys like you who need to start planning and booking rooms. The NFL pushing the schedule release back each year isn’t easy I’m sure.

I hope we get a primetime home game or two. I’d expect one home and one away. 2-3 total primetime games.

I also expect us to have a few 4:25 starts due to our schedule

This. But honestly they raise prices quicker than one two days.
I see same band every year in a few different cities. I we book refundable rooms on rumors all the time. Save hundreds of dollars literally.
I do the same days leading to schedule release on every tweet rumor. TBD dates I do the same. Those get leaked sooner. We only stay for night or 4 o'clock games. I've seen em go up at least 50 once schedule is out. I had 9 different res for games last year on leaks and rumors. Cancelled 6 cause they were wrong or didn't need 2 rooms that game etc

If the NFL cared about the fans and the hoops er have to jump through at times, they wouldn’t even have flex games.

It was close to being a problem before I retired. I was filling my schedule around 4 months out. Not so much anymore.

As for 4PM starts, we will have a boatload of those playing, I guess it is the NFC west. Time change adjustments are harder going from west to east, so most of those games played here in the east get a 4pm start as well. We might have 5 of them.

You are probably right. We'll see. I checked my usual hotel, a Marriott Courtyard in Berea. It was still holding at $110 per night. I have been checking because they are under a remodel..I figure once that is finished the rate will jump $40-50 per night. I guess I'll find out for sure Friday morning. I would consider booking weeks now, but there are just too many potential dates to book, then go back and cancel. Too much room for screw up on my end. I could see that turning in to a real mess.

Houston is a 3 hr drive from here. I haven't been to a game years. I will try to get to this one.

I check the NRA site for room discounts when I travel to Ohio to see the family. The have decent discounts. I also check my discounts through USAA as well.

I rarely look anymore...have AARP, AAA. I book Mariott about 99% of the time. My senior status and Platimum level always beats those. On the times where I end up booking with another outfit, usually because of availability, I tag one of the others with the booking to save a few bucks.

I have found that you need to end up sticking with one hotel chain to end up getting the best discounts and perks. I went with Marriott because they have a dozen different brands across all price points except the super cheapy hotel, you can find them all over the world, and Marriott holds the franchise owners to some standards, so you are shocked if you don't get a nice room.

I was wondering when the NFL would loosen the NFC/AFC games tied to one network.

Heck, this could open up what i want: All Byes done in a 2-3 week period mid season. Just shut the NFC down 1 week, the AFC the next. Everybody gets their bye at mid season. This stretching it out from week 4 until week 15 or whatever it is, is moronic.

One rumbling: NY Jets at Cleveland on Christmas Day (4:30 PM)


"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."

I don't think home fans like that day. At least the fans who actually go to games. The fans who haven't been to a game in 20 years, it makes no difference to them. They are going to be sitting in Aurora like they always do wanting to see a game for free.

Whats the best Marriott brand hotel within walking distance of the stadium? Used to stay at the Holiday Inn that was close. I also use the Marriott rewards.

Love the night games, staying the night, being lazy getting home

I can't say I disagree with you. The people who spend the most money out of pocket are those who seem to be considered the least. Of course I would be sitting in Nashville.

I think the fact that the most money generated is by the TV contracts makes the NFL cater far more to the TV audience for ratings than to the loyalist of fans who pay for season tickets and actually attend the games. And if I were in their position I certainly wouldn't he happy about that.


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

OK...Christmas Eve...same thing IMO. The point is many fans go somwhere for Christmas..Grandma's, and having a game at home that day makes it difficult for many home fans to attend. Most would prefer their team be away that day, or Christmas Day....or EVE. It's a time to be home with family.

looked at opp, earlier ,
Browns don't play the bills patriots and dolphins
they don't play the chiefs, the raiders or chargers, this year.

therefore, the tight presumed race in the AFC for the top positions will likely , by rule, come down to tie breakers again,
and div. games

No games hold more weight than your div games to tie breaks but, maybe they do, it'...complicated,
there are two green ribbon games

Home to the Jets, b/c a win there gives you a leg up on the half of the afc east you don't play

and At the Broncos b/c a win there gives you a leg up on the half of the afc west teams that you don't play,

Blue ribbon, if you win them, it really really helps

yellow ribbon if you lose them, it really really hurts your chances of getting in if you have a same win loss record at the end,
might as well tie the yellow ribbon around the oak tree b/c your chances to get in the playoffs will need rescued.

yellow and blue make green, so a green ribbon game.

the Browns finished in 4th place in their div. last year so the jets and the broncos should be the least tuff option by schedule makers
but
then aaron Rodgers

Home against the jets and at the broncos

You better be prepared to pull out all the stops to win those, there will be no make up days

all the stops


Can Deshaun Watson play better for the Browns, than Baker Mayfield would have? ... Now the Games count.

And I will say you are a high ranking NFL officer.

LOl...if so, forgive me if I wait a few more days before making holel reservations since i like to do that early. Especially if it is a night game and Iwant to stay downtown. Those rooms book fast. I try to beat the rush once hotels know they can start jacking up rates because demand says they can.

You only have a day or two before that happens.

Houston is a 3 hr drive from here. I haven't been to a game years. I will try to get to this one.

You should! I love when Cleveland comes to Houston because I get a chance to see them up close!

Looks like Cincy at KC week 1 to open the year


"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."

It will be interesting to see how they do that. I don't like the idea, but it is going to happen. It will be interesting to see how they pull it off.


If everybody had like minds, we would never learn.

The London Jaguars, IMO, is just a matter of time. How many games have they played over there? It's been at least one game every year, right?

We are slowly working our way to a full Europe slate one way or another. Sooner than later we’ll have either a division overseas or every team will take a turn each year
