we've had a total of 14 victories vs the browns - you don't even wanna know how many times they've beaten us - it's a wonder they're not in jail
We are 6-2 vs the Cleveland Browns. The Baltimore Ravens? Not good at all.


As I like to remind Cleveland fans the "real" Browns franchise is in Baltimore.

Skip Bayless said Sanders proved he should have been the #1 overall pick. I was impressed he looked much better than I expected he would but I wouldn't say he should have been the first overall pick I think the off field stuff was justifiably held against him.

The 2nd TD was outstanding a perfect throw in a tight window. What made the first TD good was he didn't try to squeeze the ball in to #16 who immediately looks open but has a defender basically hiding there baiting Sanders into throwing it. Sanders looked that way then went back to the left to Davis for the TD.that was a very smart decision it was tempting to force it in to 16 but that probably gets knocked away if not picked.

I don't think limited reps is really accurate he's been getting lots of rep in camp, I know because they keep sending me highlights of him in camp. Flacco and Pickett are ahead of him but Pickett has been out with a hamstring injury for 2 weeks so Gabriel and Sanders got his reps. Also Flacco has been getting rested because he's old, he gets 1st team reps but not as much as a normal starter would because he's 40.

But absolutely Sanders looked really good in his first game.
He's just trying to save face when before the draft he said he was the number 1 pick.

I remember the Browns of the fifties and sixties, just a great team/teams. Otto Graham, Frank Ryan, Brain Cramp on the greatest RB of all time, Marion Motley, Max Speedie, Dante Lavalli, and Lou the toe Groza. To name a few.

How the mighty have fallen.

Getting away from dad seems to have helped. They made a great deal of progress with him in camp. He definitely makes the roster. That makes Gabriel’s situation questionable.
