Monday Night Football, Week 9: Buccaneers vs. Chiefs open thread

Browns fans can also use this as an open thread.

Week 9 of the 2024 NFL season concludes tonight with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers taking on the Kansas City Chiefs on Monday Night Football. The Buccaneers’ offense is still lighting it up, averaging what seems to be 30 points per game. The problem? Their defense can’t stop anyone, allowing what seems to be 35+ points each week.

The Chiefs, meanwhile, are the league’s lone undefeated team at 7-0. It’s hard to bet against Patrick Mahomes in any given week, but it’s especially hard knowing he should be able to slice...

What is currently ailing the Browns? Just about everything.

What is currently ailing the Browns? Just about everything.

The quarterback play is a problem, but it is not the only reason Cleveland hits the bye week at 2-7.

There has been one easy target for the lack of success from the Cleveland Browns in the first half of the season.

Quarterback Deshaun Watson has been a lightning rod since the Browns acquired him via a trade with the Houston Texans. Watson has done little to help his cause thanks to an NFL suspension and back-to-back season-ending injuries that have limited him to 19 games since the start of the 2022 season.

The situation hit rock bottom in the...

NFL trade deadline rumor: Browns TE David Njoku available ‘for the right price’

NFL trade deadline rumor: Browns TE David Njoku available ‘for the right price’

The Browns roster is ripe for the picking with NFL trade deadline rumors swirling including David Njoku

As America votes for a new President on Tuesday, many NFL players will also find a new home as the NFL trade deadline is the same day, November 5.

Several Cleveland Browns have been speculated to be on the trade block for several weeks. That thought process was placed on pause after the Browns defeated the Baltimore Ravens last weekend as they found a new offense that finally could move the ball. However, Sunday’s 27-10 shellacking from the Los Angeles Chargers placed Cleveland’s...

Browns NFL draft position: 9 teams with just 2 wins in 2024

Browns NFL draft position: 9 teams with just 2 wins in 2024

The NFL draft is the Browns focus now as the 2024 season had its hopes slammed shut in Week 9

The Cleveland Browns are officially, but not mathematically, eliminated from NFL playoff contention in 2024 in the eyes of DBN and everyone else. The Browns were throttled in Week 9 and now we can focus only on the rooting guides that relate to the 2025 NFL draft and Cleveland’s positioning.

Before we can get into a Browns mock draft, we need to get through the NFL trade deadline on Tuesday. While it is unlikely that Cleveland will move a player,...

Browns roster at the NFL trade deadline: How many untouchables along with Myles Garrett?

Browns roster at the NFL trade deadline: How many untouchables along with Myles Garrett?

Rumors are flowing but how many from the Browns roster are actually untouchable heading into the NFL trade deadline?

With the NFL trade deadline less than 48 hours from now, it’s time for the Cleveland Browns to accept reality. At 2-7, they are in the running to secure the top pick in next year’s draft, and this season is a lost cause.

General Manager Andrew Berry and the front office will need to attempt to get draft capital in return for the league’s most cash-expensive roster that has failed miserably. Let’s examine the roster to determine who should be “untouchable,”...

Sunday Night Football, Week 9: Colts vs. Vikings open thread

Sunday Night Football, Week 9: Colts vs. Vikings open thread

Browns fans can also use this as an open thread.

Tonight on Sunday Night Football, the Indianapolis Colts take on the Minnesota Vikings. The Vikings got off to a hot 5-0 start, but have lost two close games. Nonetheless, Sam Darnold and their defense have been impressive.

The Colts, meanwhile, made the decision to bench their young quarterback and roll with veteran Joe Flacco. Browns fans should be all behind Flacco after last season's heroics.

According to FanDuel Sportsbook, the Vikings are 5.5 point favorites against the Colts. I'm rooting for Flacco and the Colts to win, and I think...

Brownies and Frownies as Browns get slammed by Chargers

A season lost as the Browns fall to the Chargers and we share winners and losers from the game

When the Cleveland Browns defeated the Baltimore Ravens last weekend, it set into motion that maybe, just maybe, all this team needed was a decent quarterback and some quality play-calling. Hmmm.....

Then the realization set in that the Browns were just two games out of a Wild Card playoff seed. Hmmm.....

And all the while, Browns fans were trying to decide whether to root for their ballclub to lose out and gain a high draft pick, or continue to fight each...

Browns roster: 20 players set for free agency after the season as NFL trade deadline looms

Browns roster: 20 players set for free agency after the season as NFL trade deadline looms

NFL trade deadline rumors have mostly been about Za’Darius Smith but others on the Browns roster available

The Cleveland Browns are officially 2-7 after getting destroyed in Week 9 of the NFL season. The team that takes the field in two weeks, after Week 10’s bye, could look significantly different with the NFL trade deadline coming up in two days.

It seems likely that DE Za’Darius Smith is headed out of town to the Detroit Lions. Smith is not the only starter on the Browns roster that could be on his way out of town but contracts will always play...

Browns vs Chargers: Game grades after another disappointing loss

Browns vs Chargers: Game grades after another disappointing loss

Self-inflicted wounds cost the Browns as the Chargers took charge early in Week 9

The Cleveland Browns dropped another game after another uninspired performance, marred by communication errors on defense. At 2-7, the Browns will head into their bye week closer to contention for the number one overall pick in the draft than any hope of a trip to the playoffs.

Cleveland’s pass rush was up for the challenge early, led by Myles Garrett’s three sacks in the first half. The issues occurred in the secondary as the Los Angeles Chargers connected for two long touchdown passes on busted coverages....
