Browns had both of their starting OT's out today along with their best receiving threat at TE and still managed to sustain drives, put things together and that was with them giving us well over 10 penalties today and well over 100 yards in said penalties. 

Just done, [BLEEP] done with the nonsense and excuses around here and from that front office and coaching staff. Again, if you keep failing in specific down and distances with the same specific play calls? Why do you continue to insist upon yourself as a play caller and coaching staff with those same failed designs, play calls and down and distances?

I just can't stomach it anymore. That 1st and goal run where they immediately went backwards is exactly why I hate the way that they are as a football team. Why not try a bootleg there? Why not a QB sprint with a HB leaking out into the flat with a TE running the same route just a few yards in front of him to give your QB a chance? Some options? We see the top tier offenses do this type of [BLEEP] all the time, not our offense though.

The bolded.  So much the bolded...  Just so predictable.  And it put us behind the sticks.  It was the obvious play call.  And everyone, including the Browns D knew it.  It's just not good enough.  

We're playing Madden 93 on the NES.  The rest of the NFL is playing Madden 24 on a PS5.  We look slow, old, and outdated on offense.
