Saw something a week or two ago that said it was the NFCW same place finisher. So without digging I'm thinking it's the Cards.So Panthers or Cardinals

Watched it twice already. Chills. Love how he always brings the fans back into it - "Only thing missing is you."
These go with Jimmy's video.Watched it twice already. Chills. Love how he always brings the fans back into it - "Only thing missing is you."
Ugh...he was definitely going to be out, but that's a substantially worse future problem for all parties. Devastated for him - he was playing his best ball as a Brown the last couple months.Just heard that Olivier Vernon ruptured his Achilles yesterday and will be OUT.
Not just out of the playoffs, he's going to miss a large portion of next year.Just heard that Olivier Vernon ruptured his Achilles yesterday and will be OUT.
Everyone saw what was happening, the only logical reason was to save his legs for this week's game which means Kevin pushed in all chips for THIS WEEK.The RB workload didn't bother me until the potential game clinching drive. Chubb needed to be out there at that moment. His absence put us in a position to need to stop a 2 pointer and almost lose an onside kick. Result ended up being fine, but I think he got too close to the fire on that drive.
Correct, which is why I said what I said this time last week when Ward went on covid reserve. Our chances of winning are remote, at best, if he's still out. I wouldn't bet on us with him because he's only one part of an otherwise terrible coverage unit, but we'd at least have a chance because of everything else you mentioned (Goodson, M Smith, and as much as it pains me to say it Sendejo back too).Everyone saw what was happening, the only logical reason was to save his legs for this week's game which means Kevin pushed in all chips for THIS WEEK.
Like I said. Cajones.
The DBs are the only reason why the game was even close. Everything I saw convinced me that Mason Rudolph is not an NFL QB. He was lofting up balloons and counting on jump ball completions. That works against third string CBs. We have Denzel and KJ and the game would have remained out of reach.
This week we get more than one day of practice and both our offensive line coaches back so the O-Line 'should' look as sharp as it did the last time everyone was healthy and tuned-up.
Chubb has fresh legs.
We have our WRs.
Baker is 'in-the-zone'.
COVID, injuries, and a defense that wasn't very good to begin with are the issues but they can play above their talent level.
We are in and can let it all hang out. Gonna be fun.
Told you back in Week One this team was good! Hoping you guys beat the Steelers - if the Browns do that, and the Ravens can beat Tennessee, that keeps Baltimore out of KC until the AFC Championship. And if both our teams can win 2 road games, then we'll meet in Baltimore for the AFC Championship ourselves.Ravens fan here, I actually thought the Browns showed some promising signs but the game just got away from them. OBJ dropping that first down conversion led to a 10-point (or more) swing and then the 99-yard drive put the game into trash time. Once they abandoned Chubb, it was over.
But I was very impressed with both running backs. For the entire first half, if the Ravens DL didn't stuff the play at the line, they were immediately into the secondary. The Ravens' LBs weren't making any plays on the RBs. It felt really strange how much they forced the ball to OBJ, they were much more successful doing literally anything else.
Depending on the spread, I might actually beat on Cleveland this week. I think it was a growing pains game and that the Browns are better than they showed.
There's places to go for that sort of thing, most are not the classiest so please be careful.god, I wanna see a WHOLE LOTTA CHUBB.
I was distracted driving, but Stefanski mentioned they haven't installed many sets with both on the field at the same time.Why have we not seen more of Hunt and Chubb on the field together? Especially in short yardage situations. Even the Jets game where we ran out practice squad WRs we only saw it once (and it was play #1).
Right, I don’t get it. Not a bit.I was distracted driving, but Stefanski mentioned they haven't installed many sets with both on the field at the same time.
Jesus.Stefanski + 2 more players test positive. Facilities closed
I see the concern, but I also don't see it as different than any other game that went on this year as far as the hugging after the game without masks.Jesus.
No practice, at least two more players OUT.
At the end of the game did you see basically every player on both sides hugging it out without face masks?
I was looking at that thinking what it the hell are they doing?
If no Pittsburgh players get hit it will be a miracle because their were a ton of unmasked players hugging and drawing one another in speaking directly into the face of the other guy.
Stefanski's play calling is one of the most un-recognized part of this season.
The special teams coach was supposed to be one of the best but this year our ST have not been impressive. This has disaster written all over it.
You don't?I see the concern, but I also don't see it as different than any other game that went on this year as far as the hugging after the game without masks.
Pete Smith@_PeteSmith_im not even getting mad anymore
Playoffs was a dream. We achieved it.
Yea, it absolutely sucks. Ya, id LOVE to beat PIT... But whatever. The universe is spiralling
What I meant was that I see players without masks hugging at the end of every game I've watched this year. I didn't say "I don't see anything wrong with it." I'm not getting into the discussion about the virus. The hugging has been happening without masks all year. If the players were doing this in September, they're going to continue it until told not to.You don't?
When ER's are overflowing, after the holidays when a huge wave is expected, with a team that is in the middle of an outbreak? You don't see anything that is different right now for a team that made the playoffs for the first time in 18 years? None? Please.
The NFL has changed, they issued new protocols in late November.What I meant was that I see players without masks hugging at the end of every game I've watched this year.

The NFL saw this coming because they anticipated a spike during the holidays.As coronavirus positive cases rise throughout the country, it is another step taken by the league to aid in combatting the spread of COVID-19 and it altering the 2020 season.
... Postgame interactions between players and/or staff will be limited.
The NFL is covering its butt by saying the new cases are not from team facilities. That way they can't get sued by players, coaches, staff.... "The upcoming holidays, beginning with Thanksgiving next week, will introduce new risks of exposure that we need to address now," Commissioner Roger Goodell wrote in a memo to teams Wednesday, obtained by NFL Media.
... But the NFL is unquestionably impacted by the skyrocketing case numbers around the country. Earlier this week, Dr. Allen Sills, the NFL's chief medical officer, said that genome testing performed on every positive case, has indicated that the virus has not been spreading within teams since the intensive and high-risk close contact protocols were put in place. Rather, the increase in the number of positive cases on teams in recent weeks is coming from community spread outside of the team -- players and coaches are catching the virus from someone they interact with outside of the team, a reflection of the difficulties of playing without a bubble during the country's failure to contain the virus. Goodell's memo also said it is likely that further changes to the protocol will likely be necessary as the season continues.
I don’t know the procedure, but yes, if it is determined to be a false positive the player can be re-activated. It just happened to Buffalo TE Tyler Kroft. He tested positive, sat out Week 17, and was re-activated yesterday after it was determined to be a false positive.Are there no Saban / false positive protocols in the nfl or once you’re positive it’s over?
Browns receiver Rashard Higgins was cited for drag racing Tuesday morning in Westlake, according to the Westlake Police incident report obtained by The Chronicle-Telegram.
Two cars were stopped by police and given traffic citations, one with Texas license plates — Higgins is from Dallas — and one with Georgia plates. The report listed the time as 9:26 a.m.
The location was at Coventry Drive and Crocker Road.
A substance suspected as a marijuana joint was found and destroyed on camera under officer supervision, the report said. The initial report didn’t state in which vehicle or on what person the suspected marijuana was found. The full report is expected to be available Wednesday....
Mary Kay Cabot@MaryKayCabotSo, I have a source on the Browns. The info I’ve received has typically been pretty accurate. Apparently they expect a bunch more positives popping up. But they’ve been told by the league that they don’t have any outs, they have to play the game as scheduled.
And I won’t get into the details, but there were some options on the table that may have prevented a lot of this spread, and the Browns chose the option with the most risk and are potentially paying the price now.
It typically is incredibly difficult to win a road playoff game. I believe we've only won four in the entire history of the Cleveland Browns dating back to the AAFC in the forties with Otto Graham but this year is different without the crowds.Browns haven't won a road playoff game since 1969
