Just one year after making the playoffs for the first time since 2002, the Browns are on the outside looking in once again, coming into the final week with a 7-9 record.

Depleted Browns fight hard but lose to Raiders on last play

The Cleveland Browns have nothing to be ashamed of.  They lost on Monday, but there wasn’t much they could do. The Browns had 18 players, including eight starters, on the COVID-19 list. They were down to third-string quarterback Nick Mullens, who was signed from the practice squad on Thursday and finally got to practice with the first-team offense on Saturday. Coach Kevin Stefanski was even ruled out. And the Browns led in the fourth quarter, somehow. Mullens hit a fourth-down touchdown pass… Source link

Lessons on Antonio Brown’s vaccine fiasco

Lessons on Antonio Brown’s vaccine fiasco

Antonio Brown taught us a few things last week. First, COVID-19 vaccination cards are nowhere near the foolproof passport we’ve treated them to be.  Second, if someone is determined to refuse a mandate to get a shot, obtaining some slick documentation to evade it isn’t that hard.  Third — and this was the detail that undercut Brown and two other players in the NFL’s investigation — eliminating loose strings in your story goes a long way toward “misrepresenting” your vaccination… Source link

With his silence, Cleveland Browns’ Baker Mayfield puts himself ahead of his team

With his silence, Cleveland Browns’ Baker Mayfield puts himself ahead of his team

CLEVELAND — So much for Baker Mayfield putting the team first. So much for the opportunity to praise running back Nick Chubb for saving a season that was minutes from going down in flames. So much for emphasizing that everything the Browns want to achieve is still within reach. By dodging his media responsibilities and declining comment after Sunday’s 13-10 victory over the Detroit Lions at FirstEnergy Stadium, Mayfield let his ego take over. He showed that despite all he’s said about his… Source link

Steelers Chase Claypool trashes Browns after loss

On Sunday night, the Pittsburgh Steelers dug a 28-0 first-quarter hole as their season that started 11-0 crashed and burned in the playoffs courtesy of the Cleveland Browns. On Monday, a Steelers wide receiver hopped on TikTok to trash the team that just ended his season. No, it wasn’t JuJu Smith-Schuster. Chase Claypool picked up the TikTok torch of disrespecting opponents in a live stream with his followers. Except unlike Smith-Schuster’s ritual pregame social media dances, Claypool’s… Source link
