Well earned! I got real happy then nervous towards the very end.
It sure feels good to win!

It was awesome for the Browns fans that were at the game to have a victory walk
It was great for all of us other fans to enjoy a win
Graham is on a roll
Green hair had a great game
Watson showed he truly wants to win behind a new OL
Jeudy had no targets, yet again Watson had defenders in his face a lot
Good team effort
I hope this win keeps more coming

Monkens offensive system sucks. Baker struggled in it in 2019. Im starting to think our lack of running game has more to do with the system than it does the o line .
Defense played much better than i expected especially without Campbell.
Mason graham looks so undersized to me but he still plays much bigger. 2 more sacks for him .

Bengals losing to the Steelers put us in FIRST PLACE. Graham big game. Glad to see some "best" RB carries for more than 4 yards. Watson was innacurate at times throwing, but mad some big plays with his legs.
I don't care how we win. I am getting too old. Just win Thursday night.
In such a good mood I may head to he casino.

We won I’m very happy but there’s no excuse for not picking up the first down to end the game right there. That’s what good teams do. Carolina should never have gotten another chance.

Our offense still has no identity other than penalties. It is boring as hell. Not kicking a field goal and not getting 1 yard to end the game was dumb. I am all about being aggressive but our Offense stunk all game. Kick the field goal, ho up by 6, force them to get a TD to win and let your Defense win the game. If we would have lost, that decision would have haunted Moken for the rest of the year.
If it's not Chaos, it's not Cleveland.

Pretty amazing turn around from week 1.
And Mason Graham has arrived.... 7 tackles today and 2 sacks, 4 sacks on the season.

What a win. Team proved it has the resolve to come back. Besides the third quarter, he did what was needed to win. I thought he was going to fold, but he did what he needed to win, I like it. Mason Graham is a beast, for his size, he is powerful. On Carolina's TD drive, I watched Verse Stand straight up and watch the RB go right past him, no effort at all. He does get good push though. The ref staring at a blatant facemask, should be fined. How can you stare right at it happening, and not call it?
Special teams is encouraging, good job. Seems like Watson and KC don't have good chemistry, but he and Fannin sure do.
2-1, We don't see this much early in the season, hope the momentum builds. Team looks a lot better than the critics thought. Beat pittsburgh on Thursday, and that will be a statement.
RIP, Jim

In the first half the Browns were the more physical team.
We were consistently winning up front on both sides of the LOS.
The penalties have to stop. Outrageous. Although the roughing call that cost three points was total BS.
DW was nothing special but he didn't make that critical mistake.
There are plenty of things that need correction on offense but I expected that.
At the end of the day the defense made the plays that needed to be made and we are 2-1.
We face the Steelers Thursday and they are a team who can be beaten.

- Defense played great. Tons of pressure all game long and had two major stops at the end.
- Watson wasn't great but delivered when it mattered most. I like that he is keeping his head up when pressured and leaving the pocket. Don't think that was the case a couple of years ago. Still needs to be more accurate. Had a few bad throws out there.
- Raheem Sanders has been great since Sampson went down.
- Monken's 4th & 1 calls are disturbing, to put it mildly. Get Watson under center and sneak it. End of story.
- Penalties by the OL need to be cleaned up.
- We stopped (and won) against a top offense through the first two weeks. That's a big deal.
Onward to beat the Stoolers on Thursday night!
At DT, context and meaning are a scarecrow kicking at moving goalposts.

- Another nice win. - Mason Graham playing like peak Aaron Donald through three weeks. - Szmyt 20 straight FGs! - J-Dubs itching to give Watson a contract extension! ![[Linked Image from media1.tenor.com]](https://media1.tenor.com/m/aYCWml7FpA0AAAAd/deshaun-watson-deshaun.gif)

Onward to beat the Stoolers on Thursday night! I forgot to add.....there is some streak about the Browns not giving up 300 passing yards from a QB in quite a while......they mentioned on the post game show. It was double-digit games if I recall correctly.

The Shedufus fan was mad his guy was on the bench. I notice a lot of them cheering when he came in to then hand off the ball then moaning when quickly summoned back to the bench.
It was a funny moment.

Two weeks in a row the guys found a way to win against shorter odds IMO
This offense has to continue to run through Boston and Fannin - they are reliable playmakers
Run game is really poor ... the penalties on the OL are the biggest area to improve IMO
Defense was good especially the front 4 down the stretch .. Graham keeps getting better
I would have kicked the FG to make it a 6 point game and force them to get a TD, but that was an odd situation
"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Boston is far to the left as KC settles into the slot. Fannin is flanked out wide to the right. Judkins and Sampson are split in the backfield as the ball is hiked ... Here we go."

We ran for 132 yards today and a 4.4 average. That’s not bad.
