Reminder to
#Browns
fans that we have a young David Njoku on the roster ... who was our best TE by far in 2020 ... and we don’t need to spend more money on a veteran TE
Unpopular Opinion:
I hope the NFL “buries” most the
#Browns
games this season and we receive as little coverage as possible
No hype, just work
Think that suits us just fine
If you’re rooting for Goodell to unilaterally overturn a unbiased federal judge who heard all the facts / depos and concluded there was “no violent sexual misconduct” … what are you basing your outrage on besides predetermined opinions via surface level media coverage?
#Browns
There are ZERO current beat reporters in CLE capable of this! 🔥
The
#Browns
world can’t wrap their head around a rotator cuff injury actually impacting their QB‘a performance let alone this stuff. We chose to focus on press conferences & the 92.3 audience level topics instead.
I have a pretty exciting personal announcement:
After nearly 15 years in Hawaii, I’ve been given the approval to move back to home to Cleveland with my same job and salary. Timeline is up to me so now it’s just about timing / when we are ready to pull the trigger.
So far, Andrew Berry and "the computers" have acquired a strong list of younger FA on great, team friendly deals.
Quite an impressive start for the rookie GM and just a taste of how scouting, coaching and analytics can all work together

"What the Browns are doing is embarrassing. They made a choice to move on from the QB that took them from the depths of not just the NFL cellar, but all of sports. Now they're leaving him twisting in the wind bc they did this out of order. They should cut Baker." —
@getnickwright
It’s pretty telling who watches tape and who doesn’t when it comes to Njoku
Dude is a mismatch on almost every snap, his pass catching ability has improved every year over the last 3 & he’s a YAC threat at any time, plus he’s 25 years old
Feed him targets and he’s elite
#Browns
Can we all agree that
@MaryKayCabot
absolutely knocked the entire play by play of what would transpire this week (if we pursued an upgrade at QB) out of the park? 🎯
I’ll say this, after watching Baker’s post surgery message … you can tell the young man has had a tough year, mentally and physically. You can tell it’s weighing heavy. As a human, and just a guy, I feel for him.
Wish him nothing but the best in his recovery and time away.
My favorite fans are the ones who haven’t been to the playoffs or had a winning record ever (or in decades) yet still somehow want to run Kevin Stefanski out of town, it’s laughable
#Browns
Since Marty Schottenheimer, Kevin Stefanski has the highest winning percentage of any
#Browns
head coach (55%) and sits 5th overall in team history… all without a starting QB
Some big tests ahead this season, but the future is very bright for Kevin and Cleveland
This is so juvenile. Yes Hue Jackson was not a good coach in Cleveland. But he's been in this league for almost 20 years. He's got a talented mind or he wouldn't have been. Mayfield has been in the league 15 minutes. His disrespect is shameful. Its unnecessary.
Those who hold negative opinions of Baker Mayfield are not considering where the Browns were just a few short years ago and where they are now,

"He's flat-lined through two seasons" with 88 receptions, 1000+ yards, 8 TD (2nd most in franchise history for a TE through two seasons) and 11.6 YPR while improving his catch percentage and dealing with Kizer in year 1
As a first rounder pick, he also has a 5th year option🤦🏼♂️
*Unpopular opinion: David Njoku is in a prove it year for me, he’s flatlined and needs to have a breakout season, or else a goner. Just like Kirksey

“Berry doesn’t even own a piece of paper. He is so sharp the IT guys don’t need to help him, it’s already done. At times he’s told IT how it should be configured”
#Browns
Damarious Randall out here repping everything Cleveland after NOT getting an extension AND the team drafting 1 and adding 2 free agents that play his position
Meanwhile Duke Johnson is STILL crying about his feelings in public
#Browns
Shocking that all the same
#Browns
fans who were irate with Jimmy going rogue on all these past hirings over the years are now mad that he didn’t go rogue this year to get “his guy” bc he actually and finally listened to his process / DePo?
Can’t have it both ways.
Browns fans are gonna rage this year because everyone will hate the Browns. The problem is the Browns brought this on themselves. The Haslams/Browns sold their soul for Ws.
#Browns
fans 2022: “our D and special teams lost us 5+ games, we need massive changes”
Team upgrades both and adds new coaches
Same fans: “we need to spend everything for WR3 / WR4 to win games!” (Never mind Brissett producing 2 of the most explosive WR in the NFL)
Let’s keep that same energy for Goodell’s guaranteed contract and owners like the Bengals pulling workers comp for players bc “I’m a billionaire who doesn’t want to take care of my employees”
Sad AB outsmarted everyone and now the league is mad bc owners finally have to buck up
#Browns
fans - please stop lobbying to bring Tom Brady here, it’s a dumb idea. Tom’s runway is just about out of real estate and he isn’t teaching Baker or backing anybody up.
If you think Baker had a down year - cool, we agree. If you think he isn’t any good, I can’t help you.
Anthony Schwartz thread (1 of 3) much better footwork than you might expect from a "track guy" and there's tape almost every game of a DB holding him to stop a big play. With improved hands at the LOS he should continue to find separation on Sunday's
#Browns
Literally hate Browns fans so much
Zero context - just some random numbers that appear to support the next coach I want but can’t even name because I have no idea who to bring in to “fix” things but I want somebody new because we lost to the Ravens with a back up QB
Remember when like 75% of you said you weren't going to cheer for or support Kareem Hunt?
You guys just want to bitch about anything. This week it's a t-shirt. On Monday it will be we didn't beat the Steelers by enough.
Sending positive thoughts to

as he and his wife continue to battle a terrible situation
He could probably use a bit of love and support from us all here on
#Browns
twitter so be sure to let him know
In the age where PFF; trend analysis in play calling effectiveness and results are literally THE THING I am not sure why we are so against the idea of giving our coaches and decision makers ALL of the data to help inform their decisions?
I couldn’t care less about MON meetings

Former 1st round pick

Not much has changed for Karl "KO" Joseph - click, close, drop the 🔨 Figures to be a tone setter on defense

We lost because of X
We lost because of Y
We almost won because of Z
If only we did THAT 1 THING we win
1 constant: Hue Jackson

One of the benefits, in retrospect, of rewatching the broadcast of this amazing audible TD pass by Baker to Callaway is the uncanny timing and irony of this commercial

Account Announcement:
We will officially be back in “The Land” at the end of September.
I can’t stress how difficult and crazy leaving Hawaii after 17 years is going to be for me / us but can’t wait to be back w family … plus the timing for a Super Bowl run sweetens the pot 😎
The biggest topic on here today should be Cooper and Garrett’s injury / health and the impact of potentially losing them has on our season - not the HC
Absolutely 1000% feel badly for Freddie the dude, the man, the father. Hate to see him struggle and fall on his face like this.
But as a head coach, this just doesn’t cut it.
If you follow me, you know that I have been trying to share many of these same facts w
#Browns
fans for a while. You can’t just look at one side of the story based on optics/self righteous reaction while ignoring the massive facts / holes that led to both grand jury dismissals 🤷🏼♂️
Alignment, intelligence, HC / GM marriage, and insulation from Jimmy ... we finally have a group in place to do this thing right ... add an OC & DC coming from a Super Bowl team ...
Use your head and not your feelings

VP of football operations Andrew Berry the next general manager of the franchise. At 32 years old, Berry will control the 53-man roster, making him the youngest GM in NFL history.
Two things are true at the same time here, Daryl
1) it’s not the media’s or your fault the team has been underperforming
2) you and MKC did a shitty job running with a shitty story based on shitty sources just for clicks
Today’s Hula Bowl Blue Team practice standouts:
Zech McPherson (DB) 1 handed INT in team
Max Roberts (LB) got to QB 4x in team

Rico Bussey (WR)
CJ Marable (RB)
Michael Brown (OL)

Not saying this because I’m mad or upset but I’ve lost 100 followers in 2 weeks
I’m content knowing those with moral compasses set far differently than mine are no longer along for the ride
If you want my football content you’ll have to “endure” my thoughts on basic humanity ✌🏼
Genard Avery got a sack in his 1st snap as an Eagle, here's how...
Another 'tilted' front with 3 DEs on one side allows for a quick, effective 3-man stunt
#Bears
slide protection away from that threat, instead going towards Fletcher Cox
Jenkins green dogs off RB
#FlyEaglesFly
BTW - lost in today’s Mack rumors and OL befuddlement is the fact that Genard Avery is expected back and healthy for week 1 vs the Steelers.
Huge news for
#Browns
There is still Jarvis Landry slander on my TL 🤦🏼♂️
While we can agree his contract isn’t ideal, Jarvis is a BALLER who has made some sensational catches / TD for us this season and like it or not, his leadership has been touted several times by those inside the building
#Browns
Seeing this man in tears getting carted off yesterday should put shame in the screen shot warriors on here claiming he just doesn’t care about football - we should all be hoping for the best for 71
The only conversation I’m willing to entertain about targets right now is Njoku — dude leads the team in YAC and has barely even been involved in the pass game
I’m begging the
#Browns
to find ways to feature 85 as the primary read at least 12 times a game
He’s a game changer
@ESPNCleveland
@TonyGrossi
“Our D couldn’t stop the run! Lost us games!”
AB gets a run stuffer (top 5 target) on a team friendly deal allowing him to add others and you’re calling it “not a great day” bc he’s not a Buckeye? On the day many teams over spend?
Just tell us you don’t know football
