Really I am not worried. If the Niners win tomorrow. Winning the division is very real. That is the goal.

We are within reach of the best record in the AFC.

If the Broncos lose, they are pretty much done and the Texans are still like a 2% chance over Denver

All I know is I want to be reading posts from bonefish during post season.

That means the Browns are still winning ! smile

You are a great fan and a good poster.

"follow the blind" is not worth your effort.

We have a team that is giving our fans real thrills. No matter what happens the camaraderie and heart this team plays with is special.

It is so visible watching how these players play for each other.

A win by the 49ers contributes toward us winning our division.
A win by the Cowboys and the Raiders contributes toward us being the #1 seed.

I say this to all the reasonable adults on this forum…
1. Expand your ignore list. There are children running amok. And oh, such fragile children they are. But they’re ghosts to me. I only see them in y’all’s reactions to them. You know who they are. I suggest you remove them from your purview

2. Don’t spend a lot of time in the gameday thread. If you’re like me and a sizable percentage of the inhabitants are in ignore it’s pretty quiet and a little weird anyway. But there’s just no point

Great games by Cooper and Flacco.

This is not the team that started the season. They are fun to watch and getting better as Flacco gets more time with the team. A big strong armed QB can make a difference. Nice quality throws by Joe.

The D normally has saved the O.

Not today.

Two very winnable games coming up.

I just wish that Chubb could be part of the success.


There will be no playoffs. Can’t play with who we have out there and compounding it with garbage playcalling and worse execution. We don’t have good skill players on offense period. Browns 20 - Bears 17.

I just like telling it like it is

I can ignore them or just tell them to support the team or go root for another team

Flacco in the playoffs is a different dude, He's done things only Tom brady can say he's done, the biggest thing is his ability win playoff games on the road, he's won as many as Brady with less opportunities. He also took Manning and Brady out in the same playoff run

3&out:

1. Flacco/Coop is the future for this season. As goes 15/2, so go the Browns. No prettier-looking long ball in the league. Having a deep threat gives this team a chance in every game they play between now and February.

2. Zero kicking crew at the end of this game is a real concern. I hope that both guys are merely dinged, and not forcing Andrew Berry to find new Browns just before the tournament. But, what else should we expect after a year like this? Elves ain't making excuses, so why should we?

3. I am an enthusiastic member of The Bonefish Browns Fan Faithful. I haven't had this much fun watching a Browns team since the Kardiac Kid days. Every week, a new calamity befalls these people... And every week, they find a new way to keep on keeping on. IMHO, this is what it's supposed to feel like to be a fan of a legitimate NFL team. Like
BoneI, I'm reveling in the fact that December is almost over... and the Browns are still in the thick of it.

4th, and go for it:

Regardless of how this drama plays out for 2023, I see the nucleus of a team that can be a perennial contender in the AFCN, going forward. Berry and Stef need contract extensions, 76 Berea needs to remain stable, and Browns fans should be able to look forward to a good number of years of entertaining football. A winning culture is now being established. Players have bought in, and the table is set. Continue upon this course, and IMHO, Dawgs are set to feast after a long, long fast.

.02,
WOOF!

IIRC, Stefanski has an unbelievable record against the AFC South (and NFC South for that matter)

Same. Thought they would change the feed over to Sunday Ticket since the local feed stopped and I don’t think they ever did. Definite gap in Sunday Ticket coverage.

Positives -

Unbelievable feeling to root for a team that you feel has a chance to win every week, then goes out and wins.

I thought if we got into the playoffs, we’d be one and done. With the way Flacco is playing, with this defense, and with no real dominant teams in the NFL, the Browns have a legit shot to go all the way.

We have to resign Cooper right?

Alex Wright is starting to flash. Great use of hands today.

What a ride this season has been.

Negatives -

Moore was not worth a second round pick. Classic case of liking a prospect coming out, missing on said prospect, having a chance to land prospect for premium compensation…all while ignoring all the evidence that suggests it was a bad idea…just because you liked the guy coming out.

After an embarrassing week of pressers designed to build up Garrett’s confidence and lobby the media for him to be DPOY, he now has five straight games without a sack. I get he had two tfls, but no one tapers off at the end of a season like Garrett….whether it be due to injury, suspension, asthma, car accidents. 13 sacks is an embarrassingly low number of sacks for a guy who is supposed to be the best defensive player in the nfl. 5 games without a sack…meanwhile Watt is about to lead the league in sacks for a third time. No one plays the bridesmaid better than Garrett.

- Another week, another win. This game was over from the get go.

- Browns will win out and Stefanski will collect another COY award.

- Stefanski, Flacco and Cooper we're having a blast dunking all over the Texans today. Great scene w/ Cooper and his arm around Stefanski and both in smiling spirits.

- The easy win allowed the Browns to only play Ward on obvious passing downs.

- Shelby Harris bats down passes.

- Get well Hopkins and Bojorquez.

- I absolutely wanted to see D'Anthony Bell attempt an XP.

- Nice game from Zadarius Smith.

- JOK has grown as a player and leader as the season has gone on.

Game Ball: Amari Cooper (congrats on being the 1st Browns receiver to have multiple 1000 yd receiving seasons and a career best in receiving yards).

THANKS!!!
I thought I was the only one who lost the feed!
Don't know if the Dayton feed was killed too!
I had taped it and it was too late to switch.

Man what a feeling waking up this morning. I mean it is Christmas Day and I got the best present.

The 2023 Cleveland Browns are 10-5. We are as real as a sunrise. We are not going to just make the playoffs. We are a real playoff team.

We have found an offense through Iceman Flacco. Add a dominant defense and we ready to go with a boatload of momentum.

We have already taken down the Ravens and Niners. We have beaten seven teams with a winning record.

We are no longer hoping for a quarterback to be "OK" while the defense roars. Trying to win games 14 to 3.

We have Flacco going Yard to Amari. We have Njoku ploughing guys and catching TD's.

Talk about feeling it today. Man this is living large.
