Now you get just a small taste (VERY SMALL) as to why those of us who are "boomer" Browns fans absolutely loathe your Ravens.  😀

This is a single player.  You got our entire franchise.   🤷‍♂️

Gotta be the same way that old farts like me that were Baltimore Colts fans until the early 80's can't stand Indianapolis.  

Its not even remotely similar.  The Colts franchise literally snuck out of town in the middle of the night, taking not just the team but the name, colors, and history too.  By comparison, your team was deactivated for 3 years while you built a new stadium.  You can loathe the Ravens, but imagine how much worse it would be if you watched Baltimore selling Otto Graham jerseys or memorializing the passing of Jim Brown.

Oh, I certainly "get it".  It is a damn shame that that happened to the Colts.  You are right that the Browns reconstituted, but if it was up to Art Modell, he'd have done the same thing with regards to the team's history that Irsay did to you.  Pretty sure that you think the same way that those of us in N. Ohio think.  If Irsay was on fire, you wouldn't pi$$ on him to put out the flames.  We feel the same way about Modell.  Guy did a great deal to grow the NFL with television, in many ways revolutionizing the game, and it might have been HOF worthy (certainly debatable), but he'd never get a modicum of support here.

Not expecting much, but I can't imagine he'd be any worse than PJ Walker.

Dude was cashed years ago. He is a statue with no pocket awareness that also thinks his arm is much better than it is. Guy will take some bad sacks and throw some atrocious arm punts.

Yeah, but have you seen PJ Walker play?
