Heard on replays last night (I think it was halftime of the SNF game, could have been ESPN) the best line of yesterday's game.


"The Browns Defense looks like the '85 Bears, and the Titans Offense looks like the 2023 Bears"


I spit out my pop on that one.

That was during FNIA on NBC. I think it was Chris Simms.

Whatever it was on, I died laughing.


Whoever wrote that joke for him is a genius

Still think former Browns RB, Leroy Hoard had one of the best lines when he said "if you need 2 yards, I'll get you 3...if you need 5 yards, I'll get you 3."

Boringly dominant.

I’ve not watched a good football game in live time yet


Browns looked like 85 Bears on defense and Titans offense looked like, well the Bears

I said that.

Shoulder. He’s barely thrown all week. Not great.

Now Njoku questionable dues to burns to his arm & face after trying to light a fire pit at his house.

Lol it never ends. I also saw they added the 3rd qb to the active roster… but this year I thought you didn’t need to and they could still be emergency qb?

The 3rd QB is something to watch. I doubt they add him to the active roster if Watson is ready to go.

This, for me, went from an expected win to a probable loss tomorrow.

Yep, DTR starting. Hopefully the defense plays like the 85 Bears and the 2000 Ravens combined. With Chubb healthy, I'd give them a solid chance to win but this should be rough.

Pro athletes must be the ultimate idiot savants. Where they are so unbelievably good at what they do that people like us can only watch in wonder...but are such complete incompetents at random everyday things that doing anything more complex than using a plastic spoon to scoop out protein supplement is gonna end up in a bizarre injury.

Pretty sure it was the Tribe's catcher, Ron Hassey, back in the late 70's/early 80's, who had to go on the DL because of a cigarette he was smoking in the dugout flicked a lit ash into his eye.

I'm one to talk though. I posted in the lifting thread about my shoulder injury and I'm pretty confident the injury came in my sleep, not while lifting, but I'm almost 56 and not even close to an elite athlete. lol

Oh, I get that. I'm closing in on 50 and a couple years ago, I pulled a muscle in my lower back doing the strenuous activity of *checks notes* getting out of bed. Which says all that needs to be said about how elite I am as an athlete!

Was there at the game today - ouch. The silver lining was being there for Joe Thomas’s induction into the Browns ring of honor and his name unveiled on the stadium.
