A pointed quote and one worth thinking about. Is Lamar limited by Roman's play calling or is Roman's play calling limited by Lamar's abilities? Looking at history, it appears a Gregg Roman offense comes out smokin' the first year or two and then peters out. See his history in SFO, Buffalo, and here. Is he incapable of making adjustments? Or, is Lamar limiting what Roman calls offensively? What do you guys think?

Interesting...but we have so many guys hurting or out at the moment, Campbell was obviously playing hurt and it affected his play. What will Chubb do to our tattered defensive line? And who is going to pressure Mayfield? I guess time will tell. No doubt though that the Browns game is the biggest of the season for us.

I don't think all the rust will be gone by Monday, unfortunately. And the Browns are playing almost up to their level of talent. It will be a very hard game for us to win and I, for one, would be more than pleasantly surprised if we did so. Right now I think the Browns are the second best team in the AFC. Maybe it's because I've been stuck in Cleveland for 3 weeks. Side note: Cleveland has the gloomiest weather I have ever experienced! Instead of forecasting 'mostly cloudy' they should say 'mostly gloomy'!

I was just thinking. Things are getting so out of hand here that I feel like it's all a bad dream. But it's not and every outrageous thing that happens is followed by one even more so. I'm glad the military here stated officially it's staying out of any political situation.

Crap, Max...now you've got me fired up!

Yep. I'd say they are the 3rd best right now.

I don't know what to expect from the Browns team, arguably our most difficult upcoming opponent. They were on the verge of blowing out the Titans but 'decided' to make it a close game. One thing I'll say: Cleveland's team has more talent on it than ours by a long shot. If they get their act together, watch out!

Thanks, Tsyl! Things are looking up!

Thanks, guys!

Thanks for asking. We're still in Cleveland at the Cleveland Clinic. His progress since the op has been slow. Today they're going back in to clean up some stuff. We are hoping and praying this is the end of the bad news. Doing everything I can to distract myself since only one visitor (his Mom) is allowed. Glad the board is here.

Time to make McSorely the #2 and if Lamar can't play he's who I would start.

I'm feeling positive vibes. I even think 10-6 gets us in. The Browns do have me worried though.

Thanks, Max...he is in the hospital awaiting the OR as I write this.
