DTR, DTR, DTR

Carson Wentz, Tom Terrific, Tim Couch, Mike Pagel

I hope the team isn't hanging their heads like the fans are. Elite defense and one of the easiest remaining schedules. Playoffs are still within reach.

The most important thing for this year now is the playoffs. Just get in.

And unleash DTR! No Walker.

I agree ... Walker isn't the answer. This isn't a 1 week thing now .. it's a 1/2 season thing. Gotta play the guy with the higher ceiling

Ain't that the truth. The Browns have no legitimate contingency plan in place at all. Unless they actually felt that Walker or DTR WAS a legitimate contingency plan. And if so, shame on them.

Year 2 of the 230 million dollar man gone. 2 down and three to go.

Somehow through all of the hope of this season I think those of us who have been around long enough felt that some way, somehow, the other shoe would drop. It never seems to fail.

At 6-3 you give up and play the person with "the highest ceiling"? That seems to be the roll over and play dead approach.

and now the SERIOUS questions begin about Watson's future. He's going to be on the wrong side of 30, having missed MULTIPLE seasons, and having MULTIPLE serious injuries

Great news. 😠

This is a friggin' nightmare.

Start DTR. I don't think they will though.

That’s my point as well. How much more football can you miss in your first 6 years and still be considered a viable option?

on another note, how LUCKY do the Steelers always get?

From their perspective, they are 6-3 and now get to play another 6-3 team with a crap QB

Berry isn't gonna say much of course

We just have to hope we can sign someone

Worst trade in sports history. Fire these idiots. Unreal. Absolutely unreal what they’ve done to the great team that John Dorsey constructed. Fire all of them.

They won’t play DTR until PJ gets hurt.

I mean, Haslam is the one who wanted the deal, so I'm not sure why we should fire AB or KS

The Steelers starter is basically a Walker clone. He's terrible. So two teams, one with an elite defense, and two bad qbs will play this weekend. Browns should still be favored.

Browns are not out of this. Everyone take a deep breath.

Dorsey made his own bed when he brought that moron up as head coach. No GM survives that decision.

On top of everything, someone has hijacked Rishuz account.

Could this morning get any WORSE!?!?

Nick Foles, please.

Literally the Steelers have been winning with a really poor backup QB all year. Nothing saying the Browns can't do the same.

Playing for a pick (if it's ours). Preventing injury to your key guys becomes priority.

Look, I know it's not going to happen but we've already seen what this offense looks like w/o Chubb and a starting-caliber QB. This year is now lost (which really sucks for the D), but there's no reason to affect next season by losing a Garrett or a JOK to a late-season catastrophic injury.

Start churning the bottom of the roster and get depth guys more playing time.

True. But Dorsey didn’t commit 230 million and 3 first round picks for what has amounted to nothing. Worst trade in sports history. Worse than when the Red Sox sold Babe Ruth to my beloved Yankees. Someone needs to be held accountable.

This is a terrible take. Everything is still in front of the Browns.

Get DTR in there and call and get him comfortable. Run heavy offense, play elite d. Browns have an easy schedule to finish the season. In no way, shape, or form should they throw in the towel.

WKNR just read a tweet from Tom Pellissaro (sp)-Deshaun wanted to be shot up and play through the injury.
The doctors told him not to, so he went to multiple other doctors for opinions.

They told him with the injury-if he plays through it and took another hit-"his shoulder could fall apart"

Lolz.

Calling Tom Brady.......

Watson did what he could in the second half against the Ravens, hats off for him, but questions has to be directed against Andrew Berry and his FO.

1. What’s the back up plan? Our current QB’s aren’t good enough if we judge by previous results so what’s the plan?

2. Nobody sign a guaranteed $230m contract without a plan B? Absolutely nobody with common sense. This’s gross incompetence on the highest level. In any other professional organization there would be consequences. How is it possible that the Cleveland Browns are in the middle of a clown show again?

3. Who sanctioned Watson to play if it was a risk he could have a season ended injury? Didn’t we learn anything from the Baker Mayfield fiasco? Again! This question needs an answer.

4. What’s next for DSW? Another wasted season. Another fiasco for the Browns FO. We can’t all the time blame bad luck, unexpected circumstances or other excuses when things go wrong. There’s a GM and a FO behind most decisions, or it should be in a professional organization. Otherwise who’s responsible?

Berry has made an unbelievable good job with our D. 10/10. Everything from JS to all our new players. I just want to praise him but as a GM he’s responsible for everything, good and bad decisions. Right now we’re in a mess and he’s our highest ranking chief. The bucks stop with him.

😆. There’s a difference between naivety and positivity. If you’d like to see this team win 10 games and get into the playoffs, you might have something good in front of you. If you’d like to see this team get into the superbowl, I’m sorry man, but it isn’t happening in our lifetime.

Ken Dorsey is available....

And he will side step and continue to make excuses to justify the Dobbs trade. This guy is a clown.

The problem is that the Browns are still owned by an incompetent person. It's not like anything can be learned from this. Further proof that money is no replacement for brains. It's a continuing CF. SMH

Dobbs got beat out by DTR. We'll never know for sure, but the fact that he's on his 4th (?) team in the last calendar year probably tells us that he's not the savior you think he is.

That said, this right here is the reason why you spend a little money on a capable backup if you consider yourself in contention. I felt like we sat on our hands at the trade deadline by not forcing anything with Brissett.

Nick Foles

Man, the meltdown in here is crazy.

Is it a blow? Yes.

Is the season over? No.

Berry is competent. Stefanski is competent. I have my critiques, but this season is changing my mind.

They will both be here next year and the Browns will be good again.

For the rest of this season, Stefanski just has to manage DTR/Walker (hopefully DTR), limit turnovers, and play great D. These are all doable things. Everything the Browns want is right in front of them.

The woe is me is depressing.

The Browns will still make the playoffs. The bummer is that the chances of them making any noise now is slim to none. Watson gave legitimate hope of reaching a Super Bowl.

Over? Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?
