For it being his 1st game, I didn't notice Newsome at all. Very postive sign. 

Surprised how much we used Schwatz without seeing him in the preseason, but we aren't in Berea everyday. Coaches must have seen enough to make him a focal point this week. 

Sucked to lose, but won't lose sleep for how we played. Fumbles will happen, but we cannot muff snap from the long snapper. 

Yeah, not seeing much of Newsome is kind of a good sign for him, especially going up against KC as his first game. CB is one of those positions where sometimes being not seen or heard from can be considered a good thing.

Schwartz is definitely raw but showed a lot to be excited about. Really like how we used him and it seems like Baker already trusts him. Hopefully he's just scratching the surface.

Baker played great literally until the last throw. He made all the throws and put us in position to win. We played great as an entire offense aside from a few mistakes. A drop, a punter drop, a fumble, and an INT. KC didn’t make those mistakes. If we are just talking about player talent and execution, KC barely stopped us. Similarly we couldn’t stop them. It was a ball control game by KC’s offense for large parts aside from one big play. They will do that against the best teams in the league. Nothing from today should discourage Browns fans. It sucks seeing us at the bottom of the AFCN but it’s only up from here. Mistakes did us in.

Also I hope Wills is ok because Hubbard low-key got blown apart and did kill one of our drives. 

Yeah, I hope we don't have to ride with Hubbard at LT. He's a decent back-up but he's gonna get smoked on the regular if he has to be out there long term this season.

Was it actually the punter's fault or was it a bad snap? Can't remember

Your boys were really good. It's just...Hill. You can't stop it. Came into Arrow and played big boy football right up to the end. 

He had a total mental breakdown. He dropped it and STILL had time to get it off, but for whatever reason thought he could run for it.

Oh yeah he should have still booted that. Thinks he's still playing rugby

He should have had a rugby kick for that situation he used to play fly half, they all have like 10 different kicks, I have a kick for that situation, sure it only goes 25-30 yards, but it is a hell of a lot better than that.

Have the ball down 4 with 75 years or go and 1 TO with 2 minutes isn’t a game plan.  You beat that team by burying them when you have a chance.

Sure, Ideally yes but like life, things don't always go according to plan. Despite the mistakes we still put ourselves in position to win the game and we didn't. We'll learn from this and get better.

It was his fault.  Snap smacked him square in the hands.

We played well, but y’all are too good to be giving short a field from fumbles and botched punts.

Based on his tweets it doesn’t look like it’s gonna be a long term issue.

Cant make mistakes against top 5 teams and expect to win.

Offense played great. There was not nearly enough 'splash' plays from the defense, if any. They played well at times but in order to beat teams like BUF/KC/BAL/PIT in the AFC you need to create some turnovers and play a little better than 'okay'

Super deflating to see how they came out in the 2nd half.
