Continue the discussion of the game here. Go Browns......
Come on Browns play hard and make it interesting !!!
Meanwhile Cam doing Cam things in NE
baker seemed off with his accuracy first half. lets hope he cleans it up.
and can OBJ please catch the ball? like good lord, imma start calling him greg little.
Good teams with continuity and great coaching can overcome pre-seasons like we have had. Mediocre and bad teams go forth and 41
Siebert can’t even get it to the endzone
I hate our kicker, please cut him now.
Lamar is scary good, and that drive that turned into 4th and 41 was brutal.
Siebert can’t even get it to the endzone
nearly fell attempting to do so lol
Oh look the idiocy continues. Kick the damn ball out and you don’t have this
15 yd penalty on kick off. Picking up white where we left off
facemask to open the 2nd half.
ST really playing special right now.
Garrett and Vernon need to switch. Neither getting pressure
looked like pressure there...
I don't like Beckham ,
unmotivated
Bench him
and not for Hodge.
looked like pressure there...
didn’t come from either, came from a cb
come on Baker get it together
Need to get back to running
Need to get back to running
Hard to run when you are down 18
Need to get back to running
Hard to run when you are down 18
Still plenty of time.
Did anybody sign Earl Thomas? We could use him...
OBJ just not worth the dinero...
Rather see Higgins at this point
Odell Beckham,
I saw Brian Brenan make that catch 60 times, the low one in the gut.
Is it just me or is this the same “force it to OBJ” as last year?
Beckham draws a def holding penalty on an overthrown 70 yd pass,
automatic first down.
Bekham draws a pass interference penalty against the d
automatic first down on a sideline pass
Humphries lives in obj head rent free. Since last years choke out. No love between them
OBJ drawing fouls at least
Is it just me or is this the same “force it to OBJ” as last year?
Stafanski saw how well it worked and decided to implement it into his offense.
Bakers reads are becoming a problem
A shame we can’t capitalize on all these
Someone ended up on the ground during their route.
Ok Baker time to take advantage of these PI's
Incomplete to Hunt.
3rd and 9 at their own 40
after much running for his life,
Baker forces an uncatchabale to the sideline penalty flag out
before the pass, holding defense, 5 yards automatic first down
refs bailing us out this drive
Stop forcing the damn ball to obj
last play to Beckham for the flag
This play , again scramble running for life
complete to Beckham 1 yard short of the first
refs say, Beckham had previously stepped out of bounds not reestablished, = incomplete pass
2nd and 10
It looked good, until it didn’t.
Couldn’t do anything with all those free first downs
ST's ... where was the coverage???
block in the back on Thomas looked pretty clear to me.
Mayfield is NOT the guy, never will be.
This is what happens when you don’t tackle in camp
I suppose the refs missed that block in the back by the rats.
Baker is not a franchise qb. Cant wait to see how his fan.club defends him.now
ST's ... 2 15 yard Facemasks on coverage ????
block in the back on Thomas looked pretty clear to me.
I saw that too.
i know its hard to really tell, but it looks like baker is only reading one side of the field.
Again Baker running for life, beckham out this play
thrown to the sidelines 3rd and 10
Oh, 3rd and 10 outside pass rush
Hard throwover the middle to Beckham, knocked down by the defender. excited reaction by the defender.
penalty flag on the punt return, Facemask by 23 of the Browns Sendejeo
15 more to the run so 30-45 yd line.
I hope the media asks Stefanski why he deserves to be the coach more than Freddie Kitchens.
Way to inspire the troops Kev.
Baker is not a franchise qb. Cant wait to see how his fan.club defends him.now
If the franchise was a Subway, he might work out.
i know its hard to really tell, but it looks like baker is only reading one side of the field.
Or he has no idea what exactly OBJ is going to do on any given play still.
Neither one is good.
All these throws that drive went to Beckham. Trying to appease him. When guys like landry make all those catches and are the better receiver
Sendejo not having a good day...
That was an allll Odell Beckham Drive, and at the end the defense was fired up with momentum.
So their LT is out and we still have vernon over there
i know its hard to really tell, but it looks like baker is only reading one side of the field.
He doesn't process fast enough after the snap.
It was very obvious in training camp when comparing him and Keenum.
He was much better as a rookie. He has really regressed.
We could cut sendejo tonight and wouldn’t miss him. He’s really bad. Get thomas
When Beckham is a focus of the play calling this offense just gets stuck in the mud...sometimes there just isn't chemistry...I think the Odell experiment needs to end sooner than later...trade him for some help on the defense...maybe a CB who isn't made of glass...we have too many of those...

If we trade him we’ll end up with a bum and he’ll become an All Pro.
somebody who won't be on the team soon.
Opening day is like a remake of the movie Terminator,
where he puts on the jacket and says I'll be back, and they make a sequel and the same thing, he puts on the jacket and says i'll be back,
and they make another and he puts on the jacket and says i'll be back,
for 20 straight opening days.
Show me something new, I've already seen this one.
Garrett also needs to be called out.

I hate to say it but I agree
Why the hell isn’t Garrett going against their rookie LT. So stupid.
Berry didn’t do a good job fixing defense at all
Greedy and MJ Stewart need to get better fast.
He beat Taviere Thomas, on that TD Catch,
THE Taviere Thomas? Headslap
31-6 bad guys.
Start gathering names of coaching candidates for next year
Garret was the safe pick remember? Gee, who might we have drafted #1 that year and ended this QB quagmire....
Same as it ever was... Never ready for prime time Browns. So glad I only turned this on to see the score. Turned it right off and came upstairs to see what you guys are saying. It is like a skipping record.
Did anyone tell them that this is a division opponent?
Anywhoos looks like another reeeeeeaaaalllly long year.
I am out. Between watching crap football and having WOKE media shoved in my face. There is no entertainment value in any of this for me. I will try again next season....maybe.
Berry didn’t do a good job fixing defense at all
I can't wait to talk to ALL those people who praised Andrew Berry.
easy for them hard for us
this dude went from a "running" QB to making throws in the pocket like he's Tom Brady.
Lamar continues to get better while baker continues to get worse.
Baker peaked in his last year at OU/rookie year browns.
it's been 16 years since we won an opening day game... Butch Davis was the coach... we're about to be 1-20-1 in opening day games since 'returning' in '99... man that's just awful.
Berry didn’t do a good job fixing defense at all
3 potential (likely) starters in the secondary and a LB are out with injuries.
Start gathering names of coaching candidates for next year
Quite honestly this is the same result we'd get with kitchens.
Another first time head coach learning on the job.
Garret was the safe pick remember? Gee, who might we have drafted #1 that year and ended this QB quagmire....
He’s playing out of position right now, that’s on woods. No idea what he’s trying to do
Start gathering names of coaching candidates for next year
Quite honestly this is the same result we'd get with kitchens.
Another first time head coach learning on the job.
Which is why most would have been ok with McCarthy
Garrett getting handled today. All 3 phases are horrible.
Baker peaked in his last year at OU/rookie year browns.
This will be the narrative this week for sure.
Some of You guys are hilarious it is a football game it isn't life and death
I remember all.the praise John Dorsey got as GM.
Hows that drafting working out now?
I love how the game plan everyone else said would work was Run Run Run. So of course we pass pass pass instead
Start gathering names of coaching candidates for next year
Quite honestly this is the same result we'd get with kitchens.
Another first time head coach learning on the job.
plus with Covid we had limited practice time and no pre-season games... it's no surprise we're losing... just was hoping we wouldn't look this bad.
It could be better, The Ravens are good, but you need to make the Ravens work for this
It could be better,
They could be making their field goal tries,
and
Not going for a fake punt on your own end of the field in the first half of opening day only down 4 points, maybe 7, still a one score game.
The Offensive line is doing good on running plays.
I hope the media destroys Stefanski in the post game.
All that time and baker still sucks
what is that... the fourth time Baker has chucked it out of bounds?
either they are doing a great job covering or we're not making decisions fast enough
Mayfield looks like the Mayfield of last year.
Baltimore made some real defensive adjustments at halftime,
the Browns are not running up and down the field like the first half.
A big pass to Landry, 20 yards,
first down.
Landry should always be option 1
Landry with a catch... didn't realize he was on the field... haven't seen much from him
Baker is late on almost everything
There’s the rook making a name
yep, I've seen this movie before, it's called groundhog day. Same ol' Browns, same results. BIG L. Again, I know there's injuries, but still, if they're supposedly improved, they should play like it, they have not. I expected the defense to not be so good, but the offense should have shown improvement, it hasn't. Baker targets OBJ way too much. OBJ has had several drops and one really bad penalty, not a good game for him, how often is that said? I see nothing good coming out of this. I hope they prove me wrong, but I doubt it. This team does not look good nor improved.
Holding against the Browns, the players are cussing
on an incomplete attempt to Landry
Does Mayfield ever throw a tight spiral?
Baker is late on almost everything
Never drops, sets, fires.
What were you guys expecting?
I don’t think we have it in us to play that physical
What were you guys expecting?
Being competitive?
That was one of Baker's best plays of the game
What were you guys expecting?
Being competitive?
This week?
Hooper? Calling Austin Hooper.
First and 20, studend body left, Hunt carries,
PUNISHING blow by the defense, the defense is celebrating like a hostile bunch
2nd and 18, Beckham with a catch short,
3rd and 13
3 wide, one back, long pause before the snap
a very hard throw, middle complete, first, Njoku
Checkdown to Hunt, Browns across the midfield, not yet in the red zone.
What were you guys expecting?
as others have said... i was hoping we'd look competitive... we've had flashes today but we've been so outmatched it's unbelievable... in every aspect of the game.
What were you guys expecting?

every week.
What were you guys expecting?

like that play... WR wide open and Baker just completely misses him... it's just disappointing.
What were you guys expecting?
Being competitive?
This week?
I was expecting what we are seeing, unfortunately.
Can we see the backup QB? Mayfield is garbage, time to move on.
The offense is much better in scheme but no points.
So you have a glorified Qb's coach / O coord. as your head coach, and
a 6-31 deficit in the opener, in scoring position,
3 minutes remain in the 3rd, really not in doubt.
Oh look a high throw from baker. Where we see that before. And if baker makes another read had obj open
Mayfield didn't even notice that Humphrey wasn't on Beckham?
Doesn't even look at him.
Is Hooper injured? I thought he would be more involved?
What were you guys expecting?
Being competitive?
This week?
every week.
This.
Yeah I’ve seen all I need of mayfield. Time to Keenum
This is the first game in 5 years,
I've seen the Browns cause so many defensive automatic first down penalties on another team,
wait, it's 4th down, oh well, sack anyway.
What were you guys expecting?
Being competitive?
This week?
I was expecting what we are seeing, unfortunately.
When you average starting garbage time in the 3rd quarter, it’s to be expected.
What were you guys expecting?
Being competitive?
This week?
I was expecting what we are seeing, unfortunately.
We are playing a 14-2 team that returned its entire coaching staff and improved its talent. This was always going to be it.
Is Hooper injured? I thought he would be more involved?
TEs are staying in to help block on most plays. (and we're still giving up pressure)
Yeah I’ve seen all I need of mayfield. Time to Keenum
Yep the most popular player on the team the Backup QB lol
Can we see the backup QB? Mayfield is garbage, time to move on.
This is hilarious.
he would be better at certain things...oline would kill him also
Yeah I’ve seen all I need of mayfield. Time to Keenum
It's time.
Yeah I’ve seen all I need of mayfield. Time to Keenum
Yep the most popular player on the team the Backup QB lol
On this team, it can be the backup kicker too.
Yeah I’ve seen all I need of mayfield. Time to Keenum
Yep the most popular player on the team the Backup QB lol
atleast keenum has a year going 11-5 and making the NFC title game. im not calling for dude to play....this week. but if Baker looks like ass against the bengals thursday....
Baltimore avg starting position is almost the 50

If that happens Thursday yes I agree with you ...

Case Keenum is very bad. Don’t want Case Keenum.
Ravens receivers are catching high low left and right throws...why can't ours?
how the hell do you not intercept that!?!?
I still don’t get why vernon and Garrett are out of position
how the hell do you not intercept that!?!?
Cause the guy in front of you wants a pass defended on his stat line.
What were you guys expecting?
Being competitive?
This week?
every week.
This.
the movie is "Trading Places" 1981, The scene is a bar, where eddie murphy is flashing cash and paying off a debt,
" Hey Billy Ray" " I've got your measly 20 dollars, w/ Interest,
" Any of you ladies want to step out to my limosine right out front"
" that your limosine, parked right out front"
Yeah! Do you want to be competitive "every week"?
Yeah!
Why do we keep doing this as fans?
This is a tough game to watch. Wreck.
J/C At this point this appears to be a 1st Pre -season game that happens to count. We look un-prepared on all 3 phases of the game. K Stefanski's Debut as a play cALLER/ H/C not good. I feel play calling has sucked and been predictable the whole game with the exception of the Freddie-Esc fake punt which was MORONIC. It is very apparent as to why we placed a Kicker on the practice squad as he will probably be the Guy moving forward, Seibert is a choke artist. Not angry or emotional about this post, kinda felt it was coming. Hard game and circumstances to open the season.
Well... it's a process.
Why do we keep doing this as fans?
We have a sickness. I think this every year and yet here I am. I don’t even actually care that we are losing. I’m just numb.
I think if we knew covid would shut everything down we would have hired an experienced HC that has run a camp before. We don’t look like we practiced too much physicality and it’s showing up
Welcome to Cleveland, Stefanski
I hope this is not a preview for Thursday night against the Bengals
i used to listen to radio show everyday..year ago, im waiting till we are decent. I cant listen to how good we are or how we are so close.
LJ Fort, was a Brown, and they didn't let him start,
He has good plays against the Browns every year for the Ravens.
In Chubbs defense, he didn't let go of the ball till his knee was down,
problem is, his knee was down on the back of a Browns player.
Welcome to Cleveland, Stepanski
Sorry your career just ran into a freight train.
I hope this is not a preview for Thursday night against the Bengals
their qb will look like payton manning
What were you guys expectiIng?
I expected to see a competitive offense, a decent run game, WR's catching passes, instead, I got none of that and only the same ol' Browns. I expected the defense to not be good, I even expected us to lose, no surprise there but I was hoping to see improvement and I have seen nothing, except maybe the OL, they have actually done pretty good at blocking.
Welcome to Cleveland, Stefanski
Stefanski deserves to be ruthlessly mocked for this performance.
No excuse for allowing that run
good news...there is 14 minutes left..
bad news...there is 14 minutes left
Well... it's a process. So was going to the moon.
Why are there security guards in the stands?
Garrett out of position and gets walked by
...Sendejo blasted Ward on that scramble.
This is eerily like last season opener
Why are there security guards in the stands?
In case any Browns players try to escape.
The score is 38-6 after JK dobbins 2nd td on the day,
Mark Ingram, haven't seen him.
Why are there security guards in the stands?
Making sure Browns players don't try to escape.
Whats bad is it could get worse today ...
When is gambling on sports going to be legal in ohio? I could get rich off betting against the browns alone
good news...there is 14 minutes left..
bad news...there is 14 minutes left
Classic!
Why.do.the Browns hire 1st time head coaches?
Explain.
Stefanski looks like another card board cut out coach so far. No emotion
The Post game thread needs to be titled
same thing every year
I repeat
The Post game thread needs to be titled, or mention somehow
Same thing every year
well... if this score holds it'll be the biggest deficit on opening day since '99.... so, there's that...
Baker still good for another couple picks trying to hero ball. They should just concede and use these last minutes as preseason and get some people rotated out and see
When is gambling on sports going to be legal in ohio? I could get rich off betting against the browns alone
You would never find any odds that could get you rich betting against the Browns.

Hue Jackson?
Stefanski looks like another card board cut out coach so far. No emotion
Browns bingo!
Stefanski looks like another card board cut out coach so far. No emotion
He's organized!
Sorry can't help myself.
Good thought Its only 1 game and we always lose our opener
Beyond the front 4 where exactly is the defense? Why no focus on the run early? And why is OBJ still on this roster? Who is kicking next week? No expectation of winning the opener (are they EVER ready?) but didn't expect to be blown out. +$200 on the day thanks to the Ravens (I'm not stupid). On to the Bengals.
On the positive side, our running backs are beasts!
Not surprised wills hurt. Cleveland curse and all
On the positive side, our running backs are beasts!
Yes... and Njoku looked pretty good today too...
What difference does that make is Stafanski only calls a few running plays... and when he does, its the same play
Damn... that's not good at all... hoping it's not serious.
here comes the garbage time stats
Higgins?!? he's playing today? where you been?
Why are we throwing on 3rd and 1?
Never seen a qb get it batted at line more
Wills hurt with leg injury and could barely put weight on it. When it rains...
God could baker be any worse
There you go browns... 4th and 1 and you take a delay of game.
Wide open for the TD... overthrow...
Why are we throwing on 3rd and 1?
An EXCELLENT question
4 and 6 and we throw 40.... can’t make this up. Oh and overthrow as normal
another bad throw down the field
We still have 15 more of these to go, eh?
Every practice squad in nfl has a mayfield
well... if this score holds it'll be the biggest deficit on opening day since '99.... so, there's that...
Browns always have been good at setting dubious records
I'm telling you these guys hardly practiced.
During a scrimmage the first team offense played 11-0.
True story.
There's video evidence.
We should get paid to watch this team.
Keenum is closer to playing than we think.
We still have 15 more of these to go, eh?
We can always hope for a covid’s shutdown of the season.
I would have thought we had already broken all the dubious records by now.
I'm telling you these guys hardly practiced.

ill take your word for it.
but if thats a case...thats terrible. and has nothing to do with COVID.
I can’t see this staff letting mayfield keep playing like this. There’s a reason keenum was paid
How many would shocked to see Keenum start Thursday ???
Claiborne already more impact than vernon
I don't understand why Jackson is still playing.
I can’t see this staff letting mayfield keep playing like this. There’s a reason keenum was paid
Then again, they could simply be lousy at contract management and negotiations.
I always find it coincidental that crappy teams have a lot of injuries.
looked like a madden curse moment
why are they not running the ball?
no reason to have Njoku back out there... shut it down...
Because that's what good teams do. Harbaugh and Belichick do it all the time with a big lead. We will never know that feeling.
2020 draft class is dropping like flies:
Delpit
Phillips
Wills Jr
So let's see...we lost our starting rookie saftey for the year,also mack Wilson for extended period of time along with greedy William's. Then we are getting blown out in our first game and lose our starting rookie Lt for the season also and rookie Linebacker for aho knows how long. Oh...and our new head coach has no emotion and looks completely lost
Perhaps we should stop drafting players made of glass...ie, with injury histories
Is Chubb hurt or did he get benched after the fumble?
Well, I don’t think I’m going to keep this game on the DVR.

i gotta defend coaches here. there's plenty of coaches who don't show emotions like that on the sideline and are really good.
thats a false narrative.
Do we have PA in our playbook?
I don't get the 'emotion' thing people are ticked about from the coach... what do you want? him ranting on the sidelines and flipping water coolers?
Dude's face is covered in a mask... he could be pissed off and you could barely tell with the mask... I don't mind him being steady on the sidelines... I hope he rips into the time in the locker room and during practice this week
0-1 hopefully 1-1 after Thursday
Is Chubb hurt or did he get benched after the fumble?
Think they just don't want to get anyone else important hurt.
Mayfield can’t make a read to save his life
Did anybody else notice
Something changed in the defense from last year to this.
and It caused Myles Garrett to disappear,
Now That IS alarming!
wow we haven't won a season opener since my senior year of highschool.
said it before...oline is trash

They swapped him on the line with vernon

My back was still in good shape.
rg3. we gotta get this guy...jk
Last Browns QB to win a season opener.
Are you like 60 years old?

We need to do something. We need to storm Berea.
now they run the ball....
lamar must have a pass only or run with the ball contract
garcia was great in san fran
I remember one game with the Browns his QBR was 0.0
We need to do something. We need to storm Berea.
6 feet apart
Are you like 60 years old?
33
Whats wrong with 60 at least we got to see some winning football by this team
We need to do something. We need to storm Berea.
There you go, you need to paint, FANS LIVES MATTER in the street in front of the stadium.

So, he didn't play or he played in a different spot,
either way, I don't recall hearing his name, good or bad even once.
When wills comes back next season it will still basically be his rookie year but he will be coming back from a major injury and probably wont be able to play with his full ability. This kind of situation could completely derail his career.
Well, I don’t think I’m going to keep this game on the DVR.
lol, I stopped recording and deleted mine before halftime.
Where does Stefanski rrank in the list of opening day debacles
The game went final 38-6
Former Browns coaches,
like
I forget all their names.
glad that crap is over...
gotta miss the derick anderson year
When wills comes back next season it will still basically be his rookie year but he will be coming back from a major injury and probably wont be able to play with his full ability. This kind of situation could completely derail his career.
I didn't hear he was done for the season???
How about the nameless Washington team up by 10 over Philly late?

He cant put any pressure on his leg. We have seen this story before, not just when it comes to browns players either. If he basically cant walk then the odds of him playing again this year are I'm at best
