You don’t care to go 11-6 get in and lose first round to the Texans 37-10?

With the Hell this team has been through this year, just getting in is an accomplishment. This week against the Texans is "must win." If they lose, I think there's a very good shot they miss the playoffs. They will beat the Jets but the Bengals will be a tossup.

Would much rather face Keenum....

#Texans signing Tim Boyle to practice squad one day after they didn't get Nathan Rourke on waiver claim. C.J. Stroud remains in #NFL concussion protocol, still has symptoms, per sources. Texans are preparing Case Keenum to start second game in a row with Stroud not set to return…

There isn’t any reason why they couldn’t compete against any 1st round opponent

I think they can beat anyone in the AFC. Wouldn't want to face a red hot Buffalo team and I think Baltimore would be a big challenge. KC doesn't scare me.

AFC definitely seems wide open. 

This is big but still no Thornhill. Bitonio is improving. Will Anderson not practicing (high ankle) for the Texans which would be big...

#Browns LB Anthony Walker and C Ethan Pocic returned to practice

Dustin Hopkins is 6 points away from breaking the all-time scoring record for a Browns season. The current record is held by Jim Brown in 1965. Asterisk next to this in that Brown played in a 12 game season.

#Browns Jim Schwartz said he agrees Myles Garrett should be DPOY. Said there's only two other guys he's seen have the same kind of impact in the game:

"Calvin Johnson, Ray Lewis—every week the opponent said 'This guy's not going to beat us' and every week that guy made plays."

Good for Stefanski but a sad stat...

If Kevin stefanski wins Sunday, he will tie BIll Belichick with 36 wins as head coach of the Cleveland Browns. (5th most in franchise history. 👀) pic.twitter.com/dzEjSwoEBP

So many flags.

And Hopkins finally misses short of the end zone, they return it for a td, and he’s now questionable to return. Fuck!

These tic tac calls both ways suck the flow out of this game.

Need to call it like the late December and playoff style 

Hell of a pass by Flacco

If teams aren’t getting to Flacco it’s going to be a long day.

Minus the return TD this is a top 5 team today.

Amari Cooper having a fuckin game. And Flacco. 

Sauce vs Amari will be fun

I bet Moore goes big

Defense was next level today. After that kickoff return, I went into full-on "oh shit, here we go again, the Texans have the momentum" mode but the D squashed that quickly.

Flacco is the QB Stefanski has been dreaming of for this offense. You're gonna get some bad but a ton of good.

SO glad to see Cooper erase that turd Josh Gordon from the all-time yards in a game record.

Speaking of "all-time", it could now be in question that D-Hop breaks the single season scoring record. Need a reliable kicker FAST. I hope they lost Cade York's number.

On to the Jets, would be nice to clinch Thursday night and see what happens with Baltimore against SF/Miami. Could rest starters against the Bengals if Baltimore wins one of those 2.

LOL..

Stefanski is now 10-0 against the AFC South.

- 21 years since Cleveland #Browns stadium was at capacity with a chance to clinch a playoff spot

- 1st home night game of the season

- National TV

- Revenge game for the opener last year

- Chance to keep 1 seed + Division title alive

Thursday is gonna be a movie #DawgPound

Well, Browns signed an insurance policy, Riley Patterson, to their practice squad in case Hopkins can't go Thursday. Punter is on the injury report too.

Freakin' Browns beat reporter Daryl Ruiter, who is about as pleasant as a flaming sack of crap, put the jinx on Hopkins, asking him his thoughts on becoming the upcoming all-time scoring leader in a season for the Browns before the game. Hopkins tried to deflect, saying "I don't like to talk about that stuff." BAM four points short, which he likely would've gotten on those drives they had to go for it on 4th and got nothing, deep in Texans territory.

Coverage team cost him….forcing him to sprint after the returner 

Hopkins officially out for Thursday. DTR was put on injured reserve, having injured a hip against Houston so PJ Walker is QB2 (yuck). They signed a punter to the practice squad. Only good news was that Thornhill practiced.
