Should've went for it on 4th and 2.

I know it was deep but now Baltimore will either a) run out the clock or b) run the clock, punt it deep and leave Cleveland with no TO's trying to drive for a TD.

Why Mangini didn't call a timeout before the 2 minute warning is why I hope they fire him and then run him over with a bus

So we help them by going offsides and that's 0-3.

I don't see a W on the schedule in months.

Bolden was a beast today.
The Browns overall played better than I thought they would.

I think a super majority of us fans would've been OK with going for it on 4th and 2. Really, what did we have to lose? Punt and game over. Looks like we are going to play to the level of our opponents, and make sure we come up short. Long long season.

Not that it matters/ed but what kind of moron uses a timeout to save a 5 yard penalty when you have 3rd and 28 from the 2 yard line. You save 1 yard, waste a timeout, and still have to gain 28 yards. WTF are these guys thinking out there!

Too bad thats what we will be saying almost every week. If not every week. This team simply doesn't know how to finish. I put that all on the coach.

You really needed two consecutive posts for two lines? I don't really get it anyway, what does Holmgren have to do with that performance? Not like he was planning on winning a Super Bowl this year.

Edit: 3 consecutive posts, 2.5 lines.

agreed. Honestly, if we had proper coaching we would be 3-0 right now. We had 3 victories set and we couldn't finish. Mangini needs to go. That 3rd and 2 in the 4th where Wallace threw a fade route is just awful play calling. Run Peyton on 3rd and 4th, he will get you the 2 yards.

May you rest in hell.

I was impressed with the browns performance today. They were not intimidated and didn't back down from an opponent who should have beat them like a red headed step child.

If they continue to play like that they will not go 0-8 like some people have predicted.

You never know in these divisional games.

I think the Browns will be in the game against the Bengals and maybe against the Steelers, too.

Ben might be shaky in the first game back.

You can thank Daboll and Mangina for that loss. Daboll went away from the run in the 2nd half. Mangina's terrible decisions in the 4th quarter didn't even allow the team to have a chance to win. If I see wallace throw a go route 10 yards out of bounds one more time my head is going to explode.

3rd & 2, your beast FB is running through and over defenders, and you throw a FADE, 10 yards out of bounds? Really Daboll? I would have rather seen them run Hillis up the gut TWICE in a row to try to get 2 yards. Holmgren is to blame for allowing Mangini to keep Daboll.

And Eric Wright? GTFO! Mangini was REALLY a man of his word when he said "if you screw up, you WILL be held accountable and put on the bench." Why keep Wright on Boldin? I would have rather seen them try Haden or Sheldon Brown after it was glaringly clear the Wright was afraid to go near Boldin.

I agree with the above comments about needing a #1 WR and that the Browns don't know how to finish. Besides knowing "how" to finish they also don't have the TALENT to finish. When Cribbs, who is NOT a natural WR, is the ONLY WR that you target the WHOLE game, there's an issue.

And TJ Ward...catch the fucking ball! You had a chance to set the tone for the game with a game changing play and you let it slip right through your hands.

If the Browns play like this Sunday, and the Bengals offense continues to sputter, it should be a pretty good game. Although, as I said prior to the Rats game, nothing makes a crappy QB look good like a Browns defense. We can only hope that E-Wright isn't assigned to Ocho.

Not going for it on the 4th and 2 is inexcusable. Whats more likely: Hillis pounds it up the middle for 2 yds and the first down or 2. Ther defense gtets a 3 and out then the offense goes the distance for 80 yds and a TD without Time outs? Idiot Womangini. Also the WRs need to give the QB more space on the sideline. They're running way to close to the out of bounds mark. Brain DaBoll is a fucking imbecile.
