Fuck the nfl

Cue the Monday/Tuesday morning "hey guise, we fucked up on that call... oops LOL!" article. 

That was stupid, Baker 

I was unable to watch and reading this I can’t follow what happened. I was checking updates and saw Browns up 8, with ball and like 1:50 left.....how’d they get it back and then gave time to go down field and score with still 30 seconds left?

I have never seen a spot overturned at the end of a game. Ever. 

Might as well thrn this off. This is over

Exactly. Between that and the no call on the Carr strip sack TD.

Fuck running it, huh Haley

I think his knee was down a football short of the 1st

Does Ronde want to smoke Marsean's pole?

Worst officiated game I’ve ever seen. 

Did I mention fuck the nfl

Well, you were right. 

Shit.

What a fucking con job. And tj Carrie is garbage 

i enjoy giving browns fans on here a hard time because they say some stupid knee-jerk remarks, but i'm going to give everyone a pass today.

browns got absolutely screwed on that ball spot late in the 4th. that game was over and there was no reason to overturn that spot but they did anyway.

browns got robbed.

This was worse than Bottlegate. They got thoroughly on at least two, if not three, different occasions today.

On a side note, the defense pretty much sucked. Granted, Mayfield didn't do them any favors with the short field/turnovers.

In his defense, can't remember the last time a Browns offense put up 42....should've been enough to win.

it was blacked out here in Toledo due to some archaic NFL rule, but maybe it's a good thing I didn't watch--however, I heard the Conley pick 6 was the killer...was it due to QB pressure, route run wrong or just a bad throw?

Wasn't a great pass, receiver looked like he slipped, ball did hit him right in the hands, deflected off to Conley behind him.

You would've been kicking your TV if you would've seen the ref calls. Either way, no excuse to give up 45 points.

So it wasn't really on Mayfield then--silver lining thing...and yeah, I really don't want to buy a new TV right now, so again--silver lining.

The pass could've been better, imo.

Off topic, and I haven't seen this mentioned, but I'm seeing/hearing a lot of these national analysts saying the Browns should've went for it on 4th & inches after the screw job. That would've been a pretty ballsy call but in hindsight it might have been the right one.

I was yelling for Hue to just go for it. I just knew because they were punting, Oakland would score AND get the 2 pt conversion. Imo, when the refs fuck you like that, you take the game into your own hands and end it so the refs can’t fuck you anymore. 

Fucking bullahit those two calls (overturning the Hyde run and the “forward progress” strip of carr). Even the next morning I can’t believe they did the browns like that.

As BR said, the pass could've been better, but that shit was RIGHT in his hands and it popped up to the defender for a pick 6.  Considering Callaway was a total piece doing his best greg little impersonation (I think I counted 3-4 dropped passes), I would have to put that INT on him easily.   Look at the replay, and I am sure you will conclude that most of the blame would fall on Callaway.  I am not even a Mayfield apologist.  He had a very fickle game.  At times he was looking like a rookie and other times he showed something we all should look forward to in the future.  I am sure his "grade" after film review would be around average.

Yeah, then we would be cussing out Haley for calling his 10th jet sweep on 4th and inches.  We would also be cussing out Hue for making that decision.  It should have been a first fucking down, period.  The refs can go fuck themselves for overturning that.  If the roles were reversed, no doubt the would have sustained the first down for the Raiders.  With that being said, all the Browns had to do was prevent the Raiders from scoring a TD and 2 pt conversion with less than 1:30 to go (I believe) and they didn't.  They looked very below average yesterday, especially considering their performance the first three weeks.

As far as going for it, I'd have to wonder if Baker couldn't get at least 3 inches on a QB sneak but with the issues he was having under center they probably would've went with that sweep.

On a side note, I know that Hue seems to be loyal to some of his guys but Chubb needs more carries. I wonder that with his explosion if he doesn't get that 1st down on the Hyde overturn? Gee, he's only averaging 35 yards a carry, lol
