New Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski, on the job less than a month, has already assembled a very nice coaching staff. He is surrounded by experienced minds on both sides of the ball, which should aid his transition from offensive coordinator to HC. However, as good as the staff looks on paper, it means […]
The 2019 NFL season was supposed to the Cleveland Browns’ best since their return in 1999. Instead, it finished as perhaps the most disappointing. The season that began with Super Bowl aspirations (as misguided as they may have been at the time) ended with an effortless loss to the worst team in the NFL. Explosive […]
The 2019 Cleveland Browns mismanaged the end of the first half and ultimately cost themselves the game. Sound familiar? The exact same thing happened in Week 6 against the Seattle Seahawks. Turns out head coach Freddie Kitchens didn’t learn his lesson. With five minutes remaining in the second quarter and a 6-0 lead, the Browns […]
After a lackluster victory over the Cincinnati Bengals, the Cleveland Browns had the chance to beat up on a lesser opponent in the Arizona Cardinals. Instead, the opposite happened. The Browns were shelled 38-24, with both sides of the ball getting dominated by Arizona. Player grades referenced are supplied by Pro Football Focus. Offense inexplicably […]
Last Sunday, the Cleveland Browns secured their sixth win of the season by defeating the Cincinnati Bengals 27-19. At 6-7, the team is still mathematically in the playoff hunt, although their odds are not good. A win is a win, but Cleveland’s performance was disappointing, even at this stage in the season. Overall, the team […]
For the second time this season, the Cleveland Browns lost to a third-string quarterback making his first NFL start. And just like the loss in Denver, it couldn’t have come at a worse time. Cleveland isn’t mathematically eliminated from the postseason just yet, but their margin for error is now less than zero. The team’s […]
The Cleveland Browns took care of business, winning their Week 12 match-up against the Miami Dolphins 41-24. Cleveland had been favored at home by 10.5 points. The first half was all Browns, and while the Dolphins made it a game early in the second half, Cleveland’s superior talent allowed them to pull away. Things still […]
For 59 minutes and 46 seconds, the Cleveland Browns won their Thursday night showdown with the Pittsburgh Steelers. The final score was 21-7, and it was never really close. But everything changed on a meaningless 3rd and 29 with 14 seconds left. Instead of gearing up for a playoff push at 4-6, the Browns are […]
The season nearly, if not already, ended for the Cleveland Browns after last week’s devastating defeat in Denver. Another loss, especially to one of the two current AFC wild card teams, would have been too much to overcome. Their postseason chances are faint, but the Browns managed to stay in the hunt for at least […]
The Cleveland Browns were supposed to right the ship against the Denver Broncos. The “easy” second half of Cleveland’s schedule was beginning, with pressure aplenty, most notably for head coach Freddie Kitchens. What should have been a launching point turned out to be a disaster, one that may have all but sealed the fate of […]
