There's no doubt he's a great player, but we'd need to sign him to a big contract to keep him, and we've already got a few players whose contracts will be up soon. Since we're already strong at corner, I'd rather not use the cap space there, and have still have our picks in the early rounds to address OL.

I don't want to be fine, I want to be great. True, the sky is not caving in, and we have an excellent chance to be better than we were under our previous regimes, but that (home opener!) performance against Tennessee was straight up embarrassing, and we easily should have beat those depleted Jets anyway. I'm not going to put on rose colored glasses and say Mayfield looks super accurate, or our offensive play calling is stellar, or we don't have too many penalties, or our O-Line is nothing to be concerned about. If we play like we've been playing, we'll be fine at best, but fine will get us to 8-8 at best. We need to step up and exceed the hype if we're to go where I want to go this season - we don't look like a playoff team from the small 2 game sample size...let's go out and be that team.

24 penalties in 2 games is not good in my book. It's not a matter of "we reduced them from the first game so we're cured and don't have to worry about it", it needs to be a point of emphasis every week, IMO

We need to clean up the penalties (even more), the OL, the offensive play calling, and Baker needs to get his act together to have a chance against this team...too tall of an order this early in the season. Rams 27 Browns 16

Baker hasn't looked like himself since the Tampa Bay preseason games, wildly overthrowing/sailing balls, INTs, forcing things downfield. Who knows how much is on him trying to do too much, how much on OL/protection, and how much on change in coaching scheme. I hope that he and the coaches are watching the same tape I am and working hard to correct these things. It's all fixable.

I'm fine with those hits like the one on Njoku not being called, as long as when the tables are flipped they aren't called against us. The way he landed was unfortunate, but I think they are taking too much physicality out of the game as it is.

Yep

Wish I still lived in NYC, my friend has Jets season tickets. Last time I went to Jets/Browns Romeo was the coach, I was rocking my orange William Green jersey to the game, and by the time it was over all the Jets fans had pretty much left because it was raining and we won.

So tragic for the whole family.

Not to mention the fact that we were doing so many play action fakes without having established the run. If we want to sling it, let Baker drop back and get a clean look instead of worrying about play fakes.

This better be a 4-alarm wake up call. We need to play smarter, and coach smarter, or this is going to be a long season followed by another Haslam one-and-done special with Freddy. I know Baker can sling it long, and that's one of Monken's favorite things to do, but with the shaky state of our o-line we need concepts that get the ball out of the QB's hands lightning fast and rely on skill players and blockers downfield to make big plays.

I'd rather buy one of those old horse trough urinals from the old Cleveland Municipal stadium. They held the exact same wretched quality swill as Bud Light, just with less of an advertising budget.

Cocktail hour starts at 12:45 Sunday!!

Seems like he can fill the role B. Perriman did in our O last season, especially if he steps up his focus like Permian dd when he got here

I'm sure we have plenty of intel on the Packers FO intentions, so we can afford to wait and play this one to our advantage. It would be a nice pickup.
