It's true. Only two to make the NFL out of that high school.  I like the Burnett signing. Saw an interesting tidbit that the Browns actually drafted him, but did a trade on draft day for.... Montario Hardesty

COA is about to be triggered.  Thoughts and prayers.

LOL. The Burnett signing could be solid because Pittsburgh was playing him out of position. Think they had him in some hybrid LB/Safety deal

I was referring to Montario Hurtesty.  COA despised him.

I know. That's what the LOL was for.

Schefter claiming Dorsey's trying to trade back up into the 1st round.

Preseason schedule out. Which means regular season schedule should be coming out in the next week or so. I’ll be in NY November 15 weekend (I think that’s the weekend—whenever osu plays @ Rutgers). Hoping Cleveland plays at NY that Sunday.

Regular season normally comes out a week before the draft, so hopefully soon.  I also hope they get their toughest team in week 1, considering they never win in week 1. 

OBJ tweeted something about the week 1 game on the schedule that implies that the Browns will be facing the Jets in NY.

Do teams get the schedule before the public does? Idk how OBJ could possibly know that?

He said he saw it, and tweeted a comment at one of the Jets players. The conspiracy theory is that it will be a MNF matchup as it will be the 50th anniversary of the first MNF game, which was also between the Browns and the Jets. If that were the case, it would be at the Jets, which is where the Giants also played (I know everyone knows this).

That's a solid theory, but holy shit I can't believe MNF is 50 years old.

With how entertaining the browns have been this offseason, it wouldn’t shock me at all if the NFL tries to get them on MNF week 1. They’re media darlings right now.

And that POS Modell orchestrated it.

Some things I remember about that game:

It was blacked out in the Cleveland area. 

Homer Jones ran a kick back for a TD. 

Billy Andrews intercepted Namath and ran it in to clinch a 31-21 win.

That's crazy to think a primetime game was blacked out lol.

Yes, OBJ commented on a Jamal Adams instagram post of Adam's in the new Jet's jersey to which OBJ said "see you week one".  Then on twitter he made mention of god working in mysterious ways after seeing the schedule.  Knowing this the 100 year celebration I'm not surprised they are taking the opportunity to have same teams in first ever MNF game 50 years ago go at it again.  Should be a fairly easy win to kick off the season.... 

What would be great about a Week 1 MNF game is that it would kick off in the earlier time slot since they have two MNF games.  Presumambly two west coast teams would go at it in the night cap.

Yes, and then a few years later, a rule was made about televising the home games if there was a sell out 72 hours before the game.

I remember people going to bars and hotels for blacked out home games to like Toledo, Columbus, Pittsburgh.

Bengals had a playoff game blacked out lmao. Took Kroger and Chad Johnson buying extra tickets and handing them out for free to not have it blacked out. 

Imagine that happening in Cleveland.

Road MNF game is never an “easy win”
