Nick Chubb has a heartfelt message for the city of Cleveland

The Browns’ star running back provides the fanbase with an emotional message on Wednesday

Nick Chubb will likely be back on the football field for the Cleveland Browns on Sunday for the first time since his devastating knee injury at the beginning of the 2023 season.

Not only will this be an incredibly emotional game for the fanbase and organization, but it’ll undoubtedly be for Chubb himself as well. Be prepared to see a lot of tears from Nick before the game on Sunday, seeing as he just overcame something most people couldn’t.

Normally, players who suffer multiple catastrophic knee...

Browns’ defensive snap counts, stats, and notes: Week 6 - Defense tried to hold strong

But the secondary got burned late.

Below, we analyze the snap counts and stats on defense for the Cleveland Browns’ Week 6 game against the Philadelphia Eagles.

  • DL: Myles Garrett looked like a man on a mission, even though he didn't notch a sack against Jalen Hurts. He was the top graded defensive played by PFF, grading out to an 86.4. I'm not sure if that includes the blocked field goal that kept Cleveland in the game. Mike Hall made his season debut, and Maurice Hurst returned to action, with veteran Quinton Jefferson being inactive.
  • LB: For the...

Amari Cooper trade reaction: Now what for the Browns offense? Roster?

Amari Cooper trade reaction: Now what for the Browns offense? Roster?

What is going on? What will be left on the Browns roster?

The expectations for the Cleveland Browns were extremely high rolling into the 2024 season. They had just won 11 games, were named the highest Wild Card seed, and played in a post-season game.

The roster was getting their stud quarterback into the fold again. QB Deshaun Watson was again fully healthy and vowed to make this year something special. The defense was ranked #1 in almost every category statistically while special teams boasted one of the best punters, kickers, and long snappers.

Update on NFL’s investigation into latest Browns Deshaun Watson lawsuit

Deshaun Watson settled the lawsuit last week as Tony Buzbee begins Diddy lawsuits

The Cleveland Browns move forward into Week 7 of the 2024 NFL season with little to play for despite a relatively down AFC this season. Tuesday, the Browns traded away WR Amari Cooper in the first of what could be many roster moves looking toward the future.

The albatross for Cleveland continues to be QB Deshaun Watson. His play has led to the worst offense in a decade and has made that side of the ball unwatchable. Despite that, [HC Kevin Stefanski is sticking with Watson as...

Nick Harris heads to IR while Siaki Ika is once again released

The end of any slight hope of the Cleveland Browns competing for anything in 2024 is upon us. We believed it was over last week but the AFC playoff picture was a little more wide open than expected after Week 6.

Tuesday morning we asked a question about whether the Browns should tank or try to continue to be as competitive as possible despite the 1-5 start to the season. Tuesday afternoon we got a part of the answer as [WR Amari Cooper was traded to the Buffalo...

Browns’ offensive snap counts, stats, and notes: Week 6 - Watson’s demise continues

And now, Cleveland has shipped Amari Cooper away.

Below, we analyze the snap counts and stats on offense for the Cleveland Browns’ Week 6 game against the Philadelphia Eagles.

  • QB: We all continue to be done with Deshaun Watson, but Kevin Stefanski has to still be a good soldier and start him hopelessly. It’s a thing where, in terms of stats, he’s not ripping interceptions left and right, but he’s just so slow with his movements and reads that the offense can’t even score one touchdown now. I truly believe the team is so turned off by him that...

Bills making a big trade for Browns top receiver according to report

The Cleveland Browns have started the process of rebuilding after a terrible 1-5 start to the season. According to multiple reports, the Browns are trading star wide receiver Amari Cooper and a 6th-round pick in 2025 to the Buffalo Bills in exchange for a 3rd-round pick in 2025 and a 7th-round pick in 2027.

It is a stunning turn of events, given the type of season Cooper had in 2023, and the fact that the Browns were hoping to chase after a Super Bowl in 2024. However, the...

AFC North: Despite winning record, Steelers make change at QB

Russell Wilson is in for Justin Fields despite Steelers 4-2 start

The Cleveland Browns are surprisingly, given preseason expectations, 1-5 through five weeks of the 2024 NFL season. The Pittsburgh Steelers are surprisingly, given preseason expectations, 4-2 despite QB Russell Wilson missing the start of the season.

This offseason, the Steelers doubled down on trying to fix their limited quarterback play by signing Wilson to a minimum contract and making a small trade for Justin Fields. While the Ohio State Buckeye fans dreaded Fields on the Browns AFC North rival, it seemed like nothing to fear.

Then Pittsburgh entered Week...

AFC playoff picture: Down conference keeps Browns from being too far out of picture

Chances are still slim but the AFC is down so far this season

The Cleveland Browns have been bad and any talk of them and the NFL playoffs should for sure get the Jim Mora “Playoffs? Playoffs?!” response. Expecting a historically bad offense to all of a sudden put it together to overcome a 1-5 start seems more than unrealistic. It seems impossible.

A slight glimmer of hope comes from the AFC as a whole. The AFC playoff picture is an interesting one to look at with no real surprises near the top but a lot of teams with .500...

AFC North Power Rankings after Week 6: Ravens at the top, Browns sinking

Browns vs Bengals kicks off AFC North competition for Week 7

Week 6 in the AFC North has wrapped up. The Baltimore Ravens look to be the best team in the division by far and the Pittsburgh Steelers are winning but the QB questions are still prevalent. As far as the Cleveland Browns go, everything is going wrong. With the Cincinnati Bengals, something feels off despite the victory.

Anyway, let’s do the rankings.

1. Baltimore Ravens

They are the best team in the division, not a debate

2. Pittsburgh Steelers

4-2, but the record seems misleading

3. Cincinnati Bengals

Dawg Pound Discourse: Should the Browns tank or compete for the rest of the year?

The path the Browns choose for the remainder of the season could have consequences and opportunities.

After falling to 1-5, the Cleveland Browns show no signs of wavering from their plans coming into the season as the team prepares to host the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday. Kevin Stefanski reiterated on Monday that he is sticking with Deshaun Watson at quarterback believing that he gives the Browns the best chance to win football games.

Just six games in, the offense is operating at historically bad levels according to most statistical categories and advanced metrics. Nationally, the reaction on Monday had many...
