HOW DO YOU
OFFENSE
SO BAD
25 YEARS
Go Browns a win is a win even if its ugly
I might be wrong (I usually am) ... but this game seems like it’s gonna be VERY tough to win
Only way to win the game is we need to get at least 2 to 3 more turnovers in this half.
I might be wrong (I usually am) ... but this game seems like it’s gonna be VERY tough to win
I am scared anytime we are in catch up mode...And I hate to say it, But Baker scares me anytime he is throwing.
Bryant is like our best weapon
LETS RECAP
NICK CHUBB N/A
DAVID NJOKU 0/0
ODELL BECKHAM 0/1 INJURY
JARVIS LANDRY 3/36???????? I don't remember a one!
Rashard Higgins, Has to dig one out of the dirt, mostly non factor
TE Hooper, out with injury
TE Bryant 1 catch, once overthrown, caught a TD
Kareem Hunt, 1 drop, about 6 runs for big gains,
EVERY CARRY LOOKS LIKE HIS LAST ONE BEFORE HE GOES DOWN WITH AN INJURY
D Ernest Johnson Non Factor
? Hilliard, Non Factor
BENGLAS QB, 20 COMPLETIONS
2nd half starts with a completion to Bryant
please, we need to beat up cincy with the run
Wonder if we go hurry up and we get some rhythm
2nd and 7 ... big call here
Brant makes Najaku expendable
Is it just me or is it always really obviously where we're about to run the ball this game?
Is it just me or is it always really obviously where we're about to run the ball this game?
It's not just you. I can't help but notice too.
TD!!! That was one fast pass.
OK..That was a good throw by Baker
Come on Garrett need another strip sack
Baker doesn’t look hurt when he’s celebrating
We gotta capture the momentum here
Baker started 0-5. Since then .... 10-10.
Baker doesn’t look hurt when he’s celebrating
Noticed that
time for def to step up!!
We need to pull out a win today somehow
25 YEARS NO OFFENSE
RECAP.
Nick Chubb, out
Odell Beckham, out
Jarvis Landry, still not a factor
David Njoku, a catch that drive for 2-3 yards
Hunt- looks like he's going to come up with an injury every carry does NOT look healthy
O-Line missing Teller, and Trettor playing through injury from today.
Higgins, Peoples JOnes, non factor
Only threat, Rookie Tight end Harrison Bryant
TE Hooper out with injury
Baker started 0-5. Since then .... 10-10.
He better keep this up, his future might depend on it.
With their makeshift OL we should be aggressive and up near the line with the CBs
Nice job by Burrow, unfortunately.
Why wasn't that intentional groudning?
Dumb pos qb is going to complete 50 against you if you don't do something!
Our defense is so on its heels
LOL just gained 6 yards on a fumbled snap. Browns games are nothing if not interesting.
This is like a slow painful death
They are just picking us apart
3 is A Lot better than 7 now a TD gives us the lead
Thank God we have Garrett and Ward
Ward has been showing up today..
I still can't believe our DLine isn't doing much to anything against the Bengals near practice squad talent Oline (well obviously excluding Myles)
depends on who gets the TD...
well, we held them to 3, that's something.
Nice block by Njoku there
That ref spotted the ball about a yard and a half short
JOHNSON AND HILLIARD for 200 yards
is the Recipe to win until Chubb comes back
BROWNS NEED TO SIGN A HEALTHY RB UNTIL CHUBB COMES BACK,
Baker started 0-5. Since then .... 10-10.
Looks like we started calling 1-read passing plays
Obviously I don't know. But it looks that way to me.
They’re gonna make baker beat them
On first down.. CIncy is running those safeties up.. i would gash them if I had a QB
FINALLY a throw to Hunt in space.
On first down.. CIncy is running those safeties up.. i would gash them if I had a QB
they have zero respect for Baker, and neither do our coaches
End of the third quarter with the Bengals up by 3.
Enough of DPJ as a return guy.
Enough of DPJ as a return guy.
Honestly. What more do they need to see?
Cinci has really shutdown the run.
I LOVE HIGGINS!
1st downs and TDs. All game long.
HUNT CAN'T CUT OR CHANGE DIRECTION
BROWNS NEED TO SIGN A HEALTHY RB!!
You're right You're right.
Not really, Cincy is putting 8 around the line...
seems like Baker waited this week to get the shot after halftime instead of before.
Trade him now while value is high
Baker made a good throw on that one
Good pass and got the safety out of there
Aight. Baker completely turned it around this half. Great stuff
Checking in to say this is way more fun.
We have the lead Finally 24-20
That was a really good catch.
Baker is driving me crazy
I wonder what was said in the locker room? Different offense in the second half here....
They looked like a football team!
Baker is driving me crazy
i'm sure his broken ribs are driving him crazy lol
Gotta hand it to Baker, he really turned it around after that horrible first half!
good addjustments made at half time
Baker is driving me crazy
He is Sybil Mayfield
They looked like a football team!
Remember who they are playing.
We finally throw to my two guys Higgins and Njoku and we're winning. What a weird coincidence!
Now when we get the ball back please use Hunt out in the flat more and lets ice this thing.
Aight. Baker completely turned it around this half. Great stuff
No one wants to listen to this, but Baker doesn't play well with OBJ.
He needs to be the clear alpha.
It's an unfortunate reality.
Nice job by the younger WR's, stepping up to make big plays. Nice job by Njoku to finish it off with a TD. Good job by Baker, looks like h'es gaining in confidence.
It's been said so many times. Baker and OBJ just lack chemistry. I feel like this game like the second half of this game is showing the type of receivers that Baker works best with.
good addjustments made at half time
Explain this too me like I'm 3 yrs old I don't understand when you say Halftime adjustment
baker has his go to guy ... higgins
Why does it seem Baker plays better without OBJ?
Baker definitely has a thing w/Higgins ... it’s unexplainable
Jim donovan is hilarious
Doug dieken: bengals might have been lined up in neutral zone.
Jim: wouldn't that be a shame.
You should have had that one... damn.
That would have killed them
that will bite us in the butt
Ugh!.He should have had that.
Aight. Baker completely turned it around this half. Great stuff
No one wants to listen to this, but Baker doesn't play well with OBJ.
He needs to be the clear alpha.
It's an unfortunate reality.
I was thinking the same thing. He's a completely different player w/o OBJ on the field. I'm not blaming OBJ on Baker's play.
It's weird.
That play may very well be the difference
That’s the play of the day
6 dropped interceptions by Mitchell
the reason why he is a DB and not a wR
That’s Mitchell’s 7th dropped INT of the season lol
Man, we gotta catch one of these INT
That’s the play of the day
Yeah for them
Baker is gonna have to win this
Burrow is dying to turn it over.
I'm glad that one came out.
worst LB core in the NFL.
that is why our DL and DB's are really good. and will be even better next year.
we just need to draft 3 LB's next year.
That’s how our safeties need to play
TE kill us every single time
What defense are we playing?
This crap defense is gonna cough this up.
I don’t trust our defense one bit
What defense are we playing?
man cover it looks like it. our LB"s just can't cover a TE to save their lives
Vernon needs to be replaced as soon as we can
This crap defense is gonna cough this up.
Sandejo
Mitchell drop hurts bad right now
They looked like a football team!
Remember who they are playing.
Well, there is that.
If we lose i think its because of that dropped pick. Game changing play.
Mitchell drop hurts bad right now
probably the biggest blunder of the game
Our D is so soft it would struggle to make stops in the bikini league.
the sideline was wide open if it had been picked
That sums our D in a nutshell
Our D is so soft it would struggle to make stops in the bikini league.
Lol well i would be wrapping them up every time
Mitchell having a terrible game
The defense is sooo embarrassing
Worst defense I've seen in a while.
Can someone teach our defense to tackle????
WORTHLESS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well there it is....as i said that dropped pick is why we will lose
oh i hat shoulder tackles wrap up damn it
Lol offensive holding for ages
j/c...
This defense is embarrassing. The Bengals still have not punted today.
probably the only play he will make all year.
The LBs and safeties have to be the worst in the NFL
This isn't a defense. A defense implies . . . well . . . a defense.
Seems like dropped Interception's always haunt us
with such poor tackling, you don't deserve to win. Just when one part of the team, the offense, startes playing better, the other part, the D, starts sucking.
j/c...
This defense is embarrassing. The Bengals still have not punted today.
Shameful.
To me.. I'm looking at the D Coord and the assistant D Coaches.. there is no way those high tackle misses should be allowed... That is some lame crap that all the D coaches should be held responsible... because in practice. we hitting
It almost seems intentional to be that bad at tackling.
if we had a def we would be up 40-7
I would give 3 mayfields for one burrow.
Is DPJ carrying a piano on his back
Do or die time... or just about.
Aight. Baker completely turned it around this half. Great stuff
No one wants to listen to this, but Baker doesn't play well with OBJ.
He needs to be the clear alpha.
It's an unfortunate reality.
I was thinking the same thing. He's a completely different player w/o OBJ on the field. I'm not blaming OBJ on Baker's play.
It's weird.
What Nonsense!
It's the NFL
FIGURE IT THE HECK OUT!
dpj is to slow for a return man
This isn't a defense. A defense implies . . . well . . . a defense.
It’s a suggestion of a defense
Higgins and bryant our only hopes
Higgins.
But bake gotta put that in him
The only semblance of defense is that they happen play against the offense.
Not great using a TO there.
This freaking team makes me smoke 100's instead of kings
We gotta score fast so they can’t run clock out and win
Higgins and bryant our only hopes
and Landry
and Njoku
and Hunt
and Peoples Jones
and CArlson
and Johnson
and Garrett
and Hilliard
and Ward
and Mitchell
and Harrisson
and Baker
and Parkey
and Taki Taki
and Other defenders
and Others on offense.
YES HUNT IN THE FLAT!
Playcaller finally listening to me lol
This freaking team makes me smoke 100's instead of kings
Picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue.
Gonna have to do it again with this Defense
BUT ... now it’s our defense
mayfield has was 18 in a row?
Yup. Hunt in the flat. All day baby.
Affter starting out 0-5 with an INT, Mayfield is 18-18 for 222 yards and 4 TD.
Is Johnson hurt? Havent seen him in there since first half
We might be better without OBJ? Lol
Offense is playing well, really need the D to step up and help take this game home.
Is Johnson hurt? Havent seen him in there since first half
i think worried about his blocking
Garrett do your thing !!!
Hopefully somehow the defense figures out how to get a turnover. Not forcing a punt all day and berry needs to explain how he thinks this is acceptable when there was help there
Affter starting out 0-5 with an INT, Mayfield is 18-18 for 222 yards and 4 TD.
How does that happen? Seriously? Two different quarterbacks.
Garrett do your thing !!!
Heck yes. If he wants DPOY this is where to earn it!
mayfield has was 18 in a row?
Announcers said that was a franchise record
dpj is to slow for a return man
It looks like he's running through hummus.
Affter starting out 0-5 with an INT, Mayfield is 18-18 for 222 yards and 4 TD.
How does that happen? Seriously? Two different quarterbacks.
People need to remember this is cincy. He should be doing what he’s doing
Weirdly, Baker has looked like a qb.
Affter starting out 0-5 with an INT, Mayfield is 18-18 for 222 yards and 4 TD.
How does that happen? Seriously? Two different quarterbacks.
Playing the full 60 minutes and shaking the bad crap off... growth.
BTW - Baker set a new franchise record with 18 consecutive completions.
18 straight completions...Franchise record.
Cracked rib.
Affter starting out 0-5 with an INT, Mayfield is 18-18 for 222 yards and 4 TD.
How does that happen? Seriously? Two different quarterbacks.
They finally put Higgins and Njoku in, and using Hunt as a receiver.
Injuries forced the coaches to stop being dumb
Don’t let Burrow dink and dunk ... be aggressive ... if they beat us over the top, at least we’ll have the ball last
Don’t let Burrow dink and dunk ... be aggressive ... if they beat us over the top, at least we’ll have the ball last
I like this way of thinking.
It’s inevitable they’re gonna slice and dice us lol
Affter starting out 0-5 with an INT, Mayfield is 18-18 for 222 yards and 4 TD.
How does that happen? Seriously? Two different quarterbacks.
People need to remember this is cincy. He should be doing what he’s doing
they are a lot better team than they are getting credit for. Browns 2x, Indy, and Ravens is not exactly easy.

They’re still a 1-4-1 team.
just let em score at this point
If they want to score so fast let them!
That dropped pick is looming
What is our defense freaking doing
OMG.. what the hell is our LB and secondary doing
DC fired after this mness
We should just let them score
Let them score so we have time. Lastoffense on field may win this
COrners playing soft and no pass rush and that’s why cincy will win. We need a DC upgrades. One with some balls and testosterone and wants to attack. Not this BS
Someone let the defense know the Over already covered and they can make a stop anytime now.
Good thing we let Schbert walk
Let them score. We control the clock at least. These idiots are worthless
Vernon has spun into the blocker about 25 times
Good thing we let Schbert walk
Schobert has sucked this year.
Lets hope Ward or Garrett have one more big play left in them.
Can we make one freaking play
They're gonna go after Sendejo
need to use a timeout before 2 minute warning.
Wasting Garrett rushing over RT, both his big plays have been in his natural position
Wasting Garrett rushing over RT, both his big plays have been in his natural position
Stop.
i have had enough today im out of here
Wasting Garrett rushing over RT, both his big plays have been in his natural position
he wants to be there.
he chosoes where he lines up
QB's always can run on us.
Wasting Garrett rushing over RT, both his big plays have been in his natural position
Stop.
Lol make me? I’m exactly right, he’s made more plays from his natural side
Is that a forced TO or did we choose to call it
why use a to you know they are gonna score
QB draw on 3rd and 11??? and they convert??? unreal
Harrison hurt again......Mitchell drop pick seed win for bengals
Looks like this one is over guys...
Wasting Garrett rushing over RT, both his big plays have been in his natural position
he wants to be there.
he chosoes where he lines up
Yeah not
damn this defense can't make a stop
I cant believe how bad our defense is
losing this game will be hard to swallow we need to make ONE play
This defense is absolutely pathetic.
Why did we waste a timeout
This is not going to end well, is it?
Oh look sendejo hurts another one of his own players. Berry really needs to explain why this scrub is so loved by this staff
We should’ve just let them score like I said 4 minutes ago.
I wish we had decent coaching
Crap Our D is going to give this up!!.. and again.giving up over 30pts to a rookie... Stefanski and the Woods needs to be called out for this nonsense.
Wasting Garrett rushing over RT, both his big plays have been in his natural position

he chosoes where he lines up
Yeah not
yes- he does. the announcers even talked about it
They are going to run it right down our throats and kill this clock.
We should just let them score
I hate that concept.
What I hate more is that I was thinking the same thing.
losing this game will be hard to swallow we need to make ONE play
We had our chance at that play.....it was the Mitchell dropped int
Next run we should drag their RB into endzone so we get ball back with 2 mins
NO DEFENSE
NO OFFENSE
This sucks
Crap Our D is going to give this up!!.. and again.giving up over 30pts to a rookie... Stefanski and the Woods needs to be called out for this nonsense.
Woods does. Stefanski and the offense scored 31 points, that enough to win 95% of time. A 1-4 team with a rookie qb and half the oline hurt hasn’t punted. That’s just not acceptable
Their OL is trash and they go through us like nothing
NO DEFENSE
NO OFFENSE
This sucks
Lol we have 31 points wtf do you mean no offense
Burrow is going to run this thing in.
They absolutely know they can score so they run forcing us to take a timeout when we are leading. If that shows they don’t respect us..
Oh boy, we win or lose with the D
We suck. Bengals look far better than us right now.
Words can even describe how bad our linebackers are
Yep, not much chance to win now
This game is over. QB sneak. TD.
Yep, not much chance to win now
what are you talking about? it's 4th down
No time outs and stefanski just got schooled in clock management and playing with lead
23 cant possibly be an NFL player
Yep, not much chance to win now
what are you talking about? it's 4th down
They’re just gonna QB sneak tho or we oversell it and they do a dink
This team has no attitude on defense. They are all betas. We need some alphas
What a sucky defense we have
Back to being the Browns i know and love.. ugh
Glass half-full thought:
At least they didn't QB sneak and burn more time off the clock. We still have a chance.
WOW BENGALS BLEW IT
Left us a minute, we have a chance
This loss on the defense.
Screw berry, we need a gm that can realize this defense sucks and actually does somethjng
Glass half-full thought:
At least they didn't QB sneak and burn more time off the clock. We still have a chance.
I thought the same thing.
I mean we only gave up 400 yards passing
So frustrating...i knew all week we would lose this game but i still wind up angry about it and will be aggravated the rest of the day
NO DEFENSE
NO OFFENSE
This sucks
Lol we have 31 points wtf do you mean no offense
DID YOU SEE THE FIRST FREAKING !!!!!!! QUARTER
WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT!
The Bengals did not punt once this game. Disgusting.
If we had just let the score when I said, we’d have the ball with 3 mins and a TO
And we wasted all our timeouts
I'd say that's ball game. No TO's left, not likely to win.
Screw berry, we need a gm that can realize this defense sucks and actually does somethjng
Harvard guys doing there job
At least maybe get in FG range and go into overtime.
Mitchell dropped pick play of the game
I mean we only gave up 400 yards passing
So you're saying the D could be worse
Mitchell is the goat of the game ... along with the entire defense
Chubb out
Beckham out
Landry no factor
Hunt, can't cut or change direction
only thing that works
Bryant, Bryant, Njoku, and Higgins.
If we lose this I’m done for the year.
I don’t mind a close game but it’s like we’re trying to lose.
Bad players are one thing, boneheaded coaching I can’t take anymore
Back breaking INT forthcoming
Stefanski is losing his luster with his game management . We don’t have a single guy on defense that says I got this guys, I’m going to make this play. None
NO DEFENSE
NO OFFENSE
This sucks
Lol we have 31 points wtf do you mean no offense
DID YOU SEE THE FIRST FREAKING !!!!!!! QUARTER
WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT!
are you on drugs? do you need to talk to a healthcare professional?
We need to make sure we don't score too quickly
Screw berry, we need a gm that can realize this defense sucks and actually does somethjng
To be fair, he's only had one draft and you can't rebuild everything in one. I would hope that D is a heavy prioty this off season.
We need about 25 more yards
Good thing he has been inactive
Man, he had a good catch and got out of bounds without being touched.
He caught the ball and rolled out of bounds. End of story.
Screw berry, we need a gm that can realize this defense sucks and actually does somethjng
To be fair, he's only had one draft and you can't rebuild everything in one. I would hope that D is a heavy prioty this off season.
I cant name a good thing he has done
we are on our 4th string set of DB's
he will inactive nest week
Wow
Take a couple shots at the end zone then kick it
Screw berry, we need a gm that can realize this defense sucks and actually does somethjng
To be fair, he's only had one draft and you can't rebuild everything in one. I would hope that D is a heavy prioty this off season.
I cant name a good thing he has done
There was help out there, Thomas, dix, Reid all better than any safety we have. Todd davis at line backer would have been good
I hope Parkey makes it cuz he’s been so good for us ... you hate him to lose it
Why did we waste so much time
he will inactive nest week
everyone will be
The bengals knocked the ball out of the Browns players hands to delay the clock
that should be a 15 yard penalty against cincy for attempint to mess with the clock run off
THEY'VE DONE THAT STUFF SINCE 1988
USED TO BE BY FALLING ON TOP OF PLAYERS.
WTF !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think obj is faking his injury
I still have no hope if this goes to overtime
It's a TD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
All I can say is DAMN !!!!!
I just yelled out loud!
"Holy f-ing sh--!!!
Not sure ball was secured
11 seconds is enough for them to score against our defense..lol
My soul just left my body
Parkey misses the XP.
Mayfield can really sling it when he’s not playing scared
Parkey misses the XP and the Browns do not cover the spread. It's a push. Groan.
Omg he missed the extra point
Higgins and dpj could put obj on block
I am too old and fat to take this stress.
We better kick this KO out of the end zone.
OBJ will be on the block now
AND THEY MISS THE extra point.
11 seconds.
bad guys have no timeouts.
Why did he kick it so short???
a penalty and the bad guys win
NO DWAYNE RUDD STUFF
Here comes the hail mary....
Why did he kick it so short???
Burn clock?
I’d prefer a touchback.
That pass was about half inch from being tipped. That was a low percentage completion. Wow
I still feel like we are gonna lose
Holy Crap, the kids at W:R have stepped up today, wow. I apologize to the Browns offense, I really didn't think they'd get into scoring position, much less score a TD.
Ran most of the clock on the KO.
Browns win!
We got away with one today. Terrible coaching
I actually think baker prefers bigger WR on outside
Baker did a great job of putting his head back on straight after a tough start, and led this team to a win.
That hail Mary was WAY too close.
I thought they could have called a pass interference if they had wanted to.
KNOCK IT DOWN
REDWINE!!!
Couldn't catch the flu if you locked him inside a ...
KNOCK IT DOWN!!!
was that 22 in a row for baker?
If only baker could play cincy every week. 5-1 against them
5-2 Browns, a battered Browns team sure doesn't seem to have a lot of quit, at least some of the time. Still, this team has lots of building to do, if anybody thinks we can beat the top teams, you need to wake up from that dream. Still a nice dramatic Kardiac Kids type of win. lol
Trade OBJ immediately...
I kid...I kid...
I kid???
OBJ getting hurt really saved us.
Hopefully coaching can learn their lesson and use him properly when he returns
Baker clocking the ball interrupted his consecutive completion stat....BENCH HIM!!!!!!
I was hammering Baker in the first quarter, but I must say, he stepped up. The defense is putrid. I followed on the radio, so I'm not sure what it looked like, but it sounded like they didn't pressure Burrow that much, or he was getting rid of it very quick.
It's a win, I'll take it.
Wow
Take a couple shots at the end zone then kick it
Genius.
The TV broadcast put some group of 3 fans on the broadcast
for about 5 minutes,
annoying.
They must have been burrows family I'm guessing.
very annoying to watch these 3 random folks in the stands surrounded by empty seats,
