In all honesty, tho ... Holy hell
We have a 1st unit D that gets AFTER people
I remember 5-6 years ago just flat-out begging for that in here.
"if we could just ever get a kick-ass D for a change'
oh, and ... Cousins is light years ahead of any QB talent we have had here in many moons.
Anyone not admitting that has an agenda, imo.
My boy Murray looked good, him and Cook lugging the rock?
What's not to like so far? This is an ownership that at least has TRIED to accumulate talent.
Respect that so much more than what the Pohlads and the Wonder Boys do.


Love where you're at!

We are set up. A team stocked with upper tier talent, ownership that doesn't dick around...paying people, and setting up world class facilities. I can't imagine another group being this together, this happy. Built more than slapped together like LA.

This could be our decade.

Great to hear from you Todd.
Time for us to have a year, that ends well. Eh?


Philly schooled them. Something happened w/the D at the end of last year. There was no taking control by the D. Really started late first half of the miracle win vs new Orleans

Have to adjust.

I will never look at the win over New Orleans as even a sports miracle, much less a real one. The two teams went back and forth. We had the game wrapped up if we had just stopped a fourth and ten. We made the stop we had to make forcing them to kick a FG with time remaining.
Even if we hadn't got the TD we could have kicked a FG for the win also. They made plays and we made plays. We just happened to make the last play.


Forbath would have missed. Seriously. The crowd there knew it. There was no confidence in getting close enough to try a FG

he wouldn't have missed. he made a 50+ yarder just a couple minutes earlier that should have won the game.

The feeling there was that anything that could go wrong, would concerning a kick. Conversations were centering around the shank vs Seattle

Other conversations were that the franchise was doomed to failure.

Then the Saints screwed up and the majority went crazy

If the Cleveland Browns manage to win a game during the 2018 regular season, Browns fans in the Cleveland area will get a chance to have a beer on Bud Light.
According to Cleveland.com's Marc Bona, Bud Light's vice president of marketing, Andy Goeler, announced Tuesday that the company is placing "victory fridges" in strategic areas around Cleveland that will automatically open when the Browns win a game: "We're always cheering for them. Obviously they haven't won in a while. We're putting victory fridges out into the marketplace. When the Cleveland Browns win, at the end of the game, these refrigerators...will send a wireless signal that will unlock them and give fans the opportunity to have a celebratory Bud Light."
