Moral victories vs. Pessimism

[ncsdawg]

Well, as an ex Browns fan I can tell you all about coping with bad teams.  From the QB T-Shirt, to 1-31, to firing 2 different head coaches after 1 season....  and Panthers ownership has nothing on Jimmy Haslam (who will even stoop to overcharging Pilot/FlyingJ customers just to make balance).  I spent a lot of Sundays fishing, or listening to the broadcast while I was doing other things.  In the end it's just entertainment, my level of investment over the course of the season is determined by the value of that entertainment (at least once I started to keep a better eye on my blood pressure).  One thing I will say, nothing compared to losing the team for 3 years when Model moved the Browns after the mafia came looking for their money.   Not even 1-31.

Moral victory is if Matt Corral was out there and he played lights out knowing we have a QB for the future.

 

 

I kind of thought we would suck. I thought the benefit of that would be Matt Corral playing a couple games but nope...

Never planned that, never prepared for that, absolutely the last thing on this guy's mind, not his wet dream Kenny Pickett therefore of no value.

Teh Locker Room in teh huddle was closed because boobies hurt somebody's eyes or feelings or ego or something. We no longer have that anymore. Boobies, butts, cheerleaders. These crybaby revolutionaries ruin every damn thing.

To boobies!

God knows we all need more!

Here here!

I think bringing back the Locker room with rules would help us all in these hard/limp times.

That's a movement I think we could all get behind. No puns intended

I wanted us to win that game as much as the next fan. Let's be honest here, with a real coaching staff we win that game pretty easily. 

 

Let’s be honest, if the Browns weren’t starting their backup QB the Panthers lose 40-24.

Rhule is awful.  This is science.  But the roster is nearly equally as bad. 

My advice is to tank and start from scratch in 2023.

An “ex-Browns fan” means you were never a Browns fan.
