    I think we get an extra week to prepare for the Browns and their tough defense. Then we play the Bengals and their not-so-tough defense.

    We might even get to see our starting defense for the first time. The team took another step forward today.

    I wonder if we will face Flacco after the bye. He is consistently throwing 2 gawd awful picks every week.

    LOL. I don't see how Flacco gets another start after today.

    Flacco Today QBR 43.3. Under 50% completion percentage, 0 TDs and 2 Ints.

    I think most Cleveland Fans will be shouting "Bring on the Rookies!!!"

    Wish the bye week were about week 9. The Steelers should have a very healthy team coming off this bye but later in the year is where it would have helped more in that regard.

    Early report on SD have Ramsey and Austin missing multiple games, whatever that means. JPjr should be ready to go and Trice can come off IR.

    That Ramsey hamstring injury worries me the most on how long he will be out. Some players come back a few weeks others take 4 weeks.

    Ramsey grabbed his HAMMY on the fumble recovery TD that was over ruled.

    Yeah Browns coach Stefanski declined to name Flacco as their starter against the Vikings on Sunday. That's a pretty good sign that they are going to go with Gabriel.

    Stefanski doesn't have much of a choice at this point.


    Either he rolls with Dillion Gabriel and see what he has or he is going to continue to lose with Flacco. No ifs, ands or buts. Would be interesting though to see Shedeur in. That said... I only say this for the nigh omnipotent media coverage he would receive should he even take the field.

    If Ramsey does miss time at least Porter Jr. should be back after the bye week, they can also activate Trice off of IR.

    Can Trice Jr stay healthy?! That is the massive, one million dollar question. I hate being that guy but it is a very far concern to have.


    I hope he can. I just have my doubts he will.

    I hope so. Get at least 1 game on film to game plan for.

    I'm not sure there is a good option for the Browns. Throwing the rookie in there for the game in Europe isn't great, but neither is having him make his first start against the Steelers.

    It's gonna be difficult for the Steelers offense to move the ball on the Browns defense. Their D line vs our O line gives me nightmares. :facepalm:

    Frazier needs to get his shotgun snaps up to Rodgers's chest... and Semaulu and Fautanu need to cut out the whiffs.

    It will be a major challenge for sure but the Browns offense is so bad,they are likely to gave to the steelers some short field on offense
