Tomorrow at 7:30 the Browns will conclude their unremarkable pre-season at home against the Bears. This is little to say about the game specifically as both teams will mainly be looking to keep their starters healthy. I don’t expect to see many key players on either side of the field for much of the and this could easily lead to an 0-4 start for the Browns. Not that that matters ...

3 Point Blowout
 

Published 10 days ago by nxnn at Browns Bites

The Browns lost their second straight pre-season game on Monday at the hands of the world champion New York Giants and it certainly wasn’t as close as the 37-34 score would appear. Now I am not going to bash the Browns and write that they played awful and all these changes need to be made and that they are not as good as most might think. There may be some truth in some or all of ...

Published 18 days ago by nxnn at Browns Bites

Before I get into a discussion about the Browns’ offensive line just wanted to address a couple of news bites from the past couple of days. First, the Browns have released Gary Baxter. It is sad to see a guy who worked so hard to come back from his double knee surgeries and play for the Browns again. However, at the same time it is important to realize that a player who is not going ...
