Boy am I glad I didn’t make any bold prediction about yesterday’s game. It would have been cliche to say that the Browns will show flashes of brilliance, defy all expectations, tempt fans with visions of glory, then find a new and interesting way to leave their followers stunned yet again.

I’ll have more to say once I adjust to the sobering reality that the Browns’ season is over and the real-world challenges of the new year await my avid attention as well.
