But only because the Offense can't stay on the field.

Got to keep the faith ... I didn't even know who this guy Mayfield was till he came on the field with just a few minutes left in the first half. I know who he is now, a winner.

Wouldn't it be great if the Browns won the rest of their games this year and even go to the playoffs.

For those that don't know the Cleveland Browns won their first game since December 24th 2016 last night against the New York Jets 21-17.

Did you know that the first Monday night football game was played between the Browns and Jets back in 1970?

About being a fan of a team.

I have a lot more respect for a fan who support his or her team whatever the situations is during the season

Than a fan who drop their team because they start to loose.

Back to Sundays games.

Have taken notice from your picks.

Going to use them when I make this weeks Bet12 on this Danish betting page.

It's why i will never pick against the Patriots. They could be 50 point underdogs and i'd still pick them to win. Some day it might mean a regular -1 on my pick count but in the last 15 years it's been good to me.

Well.... He did win the Heisman last year and was the first pick overall....



Even though he only played a half a game, he's the first quarterback I've seen in a Browns uniform in 25 years that actually looked like he knew what he was doing. It's been that long.


What's amazing is that he hasn't played more than 30ish snaps with the first team. Total, ever. Once they get familiar with each other, they may actually be a competent team.

I know he was big, but I didn't know he was good ... I don't pay much attention to football except when it is the season. The QB for the NY Jets was rookie too and available in the same draft, but the Browns chose Mayfield. Finally they did something right.

Can you please explain how the Cleveland Browns owner became the owner after he had the Baltimore Colts taken away from him. I never understood that one.
