The Cleveland Browns once stood as one of the NFL’s proudest franchises. Their history remains littered with great games, long runs in the NFL playoffs, and Hall of Fame players. Unfortunately, when former owner Art Modell moved the original Browns to Baltimore, the foundation of that organization left Cleveland as well. The reborn Cleveland Browns […]

The Cleveland Browns have had a long history struggling to find a long-term solution at quarterback. In line with that, the Browns have officially named rookie quarterback DeShone Kizer as the starter for the season opener against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sept. 10, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Now official: DeShone Kizer is Browns' […]

The Cleveland Browns have yet to officially name their quarterback of choice to start Week 1 of the regular season. But with rookie DeShone Kizer named to start the third preseason game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Brock Osweiler might very well prepare for life as a backup to the rookie quarterback. If that’s going […]

For nearly the past two decades, it has been nothing short of a merry-go-around of starting quarterbacks for the Cleveland Browns. The Browns appear to be shaping up their project with Andrew Gribble of clevelandbrowns.com reporting that head coach Hue Jackson has declared that rookie quarterback DeShone Kizer will get the start over Brock Osweiler […]

The New York Giants had a brief scare on Monday night after star wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. suffered a sprained ankle injury after receiving a low hit from Cleveland Browns cornerback Briean Boddy-Calhoun. This created a large public outcry via social media about the legality of the tackle made by Boddy-Calhoun. However, Beckham Jr. has voiced no […]

The last time Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Martavis Bryant played a regular season game, the idea of Donald Trump becoming president of the United States was still considered as much of a joke as the Cleveland Browns winning the Super Bowl. But a 19-month absence from the NFL didn’t seem to have diminished Bryant’s skills […]

The Cleveland Browns have had a carousel of quarterbacks over the last 10 years that even diehard fans might have a hard time naming all those that started under center during that span. Browns offensive lineman Joe Thomas put them all to shame, though, after easily rattling off each of the last 18 Browns quarterbacks […]

For nearly two decades, the Cleveland Browns have struggled to find a quarterback that can be the long-term solution at the position. The Browns had added a potential answer to that issue with former Notre Dame quarterback DeShone Kizer with the 52nd overall pick in the second round of this year’s NFL Draft. In light […]

Here’s some sizzling news out of Cleveland: suspended Browns wide receiver Josh Gordon is far from getting his suspension lifted by NFL commissioner Roger Goodell.   Per Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com, it doesn’t appear Gordon’s reinstatement is close to being approved. Goodell, speaking in front of fans in Berea, Cleveland: Goodell on Browns Gordon reinstatement: […]

It’s quite obvious that the Cleveland Browns have several holes on their team to fix after finishing last season in the cellar of the AFC North with a 1-15 record. In trying to address one of their biggest problems, the Browns used their first overall pick in the 2017 NFL Draft on defensive end Myles […]

It’s all about the mindset for Cleveland Browns quarterback Brock Osweiler. The 26-year-old will enter the 2017 NFL season on the heels of a bad year with the Houston Texans that he’d rather forget. After sort of swindling the Texans, who signed him to a four-year, $72-million contract in 2016, Osweiler quickly became a poster […]

An organization can do everything else right, but if they don’t have a premier quarterback, it’s difficult to win in the National Football League. Finding that elusive gem can become a lifelong odyssey for coaches and executives. Great coaches need great players to win, especially under center. Per usual, there are a number of NFL […]

Two more weeks. Two more games. At 0-14, the Cleveland Browns are in danger of joining some unfortunate company. The 1976 Tampa Bay Buccaneers didn’t win a game in their first NFL season, but they only played 14 games. The only team to go 0-16 is the 2008 Lions. The Browns have two more chances […]

For 10 years, Joe Thomas has started at left tackle for the Cleveland Browns. Despite the physically demanding nature of the position, Thomas has never missed a game in his career. For much of that time, Thomas has been Cleveland’s best player. That’s a testament to Thomas’ elite ability, and the complete inability of the […]

Lamar Jackson is still a couple years away from the NFL, but Johnny Manziel is already warning him not to go to the Cleveland Browns. Jackson’s sophomore campaign with the Louisville Cardinals has been nothing short of amazing. He’s scored a total of 51 touchdowns (30 passing, 21 rushing) while accruing 3,390 yards through the […]

The Cleveland Browns are quickly approaching a historically terrible 0-16 final record, but at least their fans are having fun with it. Some dedicated members of the Dawg Pound have organized an 0-16 parade should the team lose out. Others have altered Johnny Manziel jerseys to feature all of the starting quarterbacks the Browns have […]

Before falling to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday, the Cleveland Browns were already mathematically eliminated from playoff contention. In reality, their chances of making the playoffs were essentially zero when the season started. In the first year of their new rebuild, Cleveland currently sits at 0-11. Even with the focus on the future, fans and […]

Forgive Browns fans if they don’t have much hope for their favorite team. With decades of poor play on their resume, Cleveland actually might have their worst football team since the revival of the Browns in 1999. They currently sit at 0-10; a 0-16 season is a real possibility. Despite their inadequacy in every facet […]

Joe Thomas has spent his entire career with the Cleveland Browns, but that could come to an end soon. For most of his tenure, Thomas has been Cleveland’s best player, at any position. He’s a nine-time Pro Bowler, six-time First-Team All-Pro, and two-time Second-Team All-Pro. But, with Cleveland toiling away once again, it might be […]

When you’re one of the best players at your position in the NFL, but you play for the worst team in the league, you need to find creative ways to have fun. That’s precisely the case for offensive tackle, Joe Thomas. Year after year, Thomas is renowned for his performance at the position, and he’s […]

Isaiah Crowell‘s relationship with the police has taken a drastic turn over the last few months, for the better. Back in July, shortly after the tragic murders of five Dallas policemen, the Cleveland Browns running back posted a graphic photo of an officer being brutally attacked on his social media accounts, before quickly taking them […]

Everybody knows this call was blown, Browns fans or not. But, that hasn’t stopped Redskins linebacker Will Compton from making a joke out of it. During a close 24-20 game on Sunday in favor of Washington, the Browns attempted to drive down the field to take the lead with under 10 minutes to play. That’s […]

The road for the 2016 Cleveland Browns doesn’t get any easier this week. In fact, they’re about to face their toughest test yet. The Browns are currently the only winless team left in the NFL, and this Sunday they host the New England Patriots. Always a tall task, facing New England takes on even more […]

Perhaps the most controversial call of the weekend came late in the Redskins–Browns game. With Washington leading 24-20, Cleveland was driving the ball in the fourth quarter with a chance to take the lead. Running back Duke Johnson took a handoff to the left around mid field, and on his way to the ground, the […]

Josh Gordon‘s time in Cleveland has finally come to a close. With his four-game suspension to start the 2016 season nearly up, Gordon entered a rehab facility this week. It’s undoubtedly the right move for Gordon at this point in his life, but his Browns career will end as a result. Here are head coach […]

Earlier this week, Cleveland Browns wide receiver Terrelle Pryor claimed that the Browns are capable of winning their remaining 13 games after starting 0-3. He believes they’re about to get over the hump, and all they need is the right mindset. From Pryor: “We’re so close to getting over that hump,” said Pryor, who played […]

Most power rankings listed the Cleveland Browns last heading in the 2016 season, and they’ve remained there. The Browns are 0-3, and they’ve already lost their first two quarterbacks in Robert Griffin III and Josh McCown. They all haven’t been blowouts, though. The Browns were leading the Baltimore Ravens 20-0 before giving up 25 consecutive […]

Even if you’re an NBA player, it doesn’t always make up for being a Cleveland Browns fan. Just ask C.J. McCollum. The Portland Trail Blazers guard wondered something more Browns fans probably have while watching NFL over the weekend. I wonder what it's like to be a fan of a great football team like the […]

Josh Gordon‘s highly anticipated return to the field is just a few weeks away. After failing another drug test, Gordon was issued a four-game suspension at the start of the 2016 season. But now, he’s facing a separate charge. From Adam Ferrise of Cleveland.com: A judge issued a warrant for the arrest of Cleveland Browns […]

There was never a question that this was going to be a rebuilding year for the Cleveland Browns. They used 14 picks in the 2016 NFL draft, signing all of them. They’ll have two first rounders and a number of other selections in the 2017 draft as well. They’re investing in the future while sacrificing […]

The Cleveland Browns are just starting on their latest rebuild. They compiled 14 picks for the 2016 NFL draft, and all 14 players made the roster. There’s a long way to go, but for the first time in years, the Browns at least have a direction. But, that doesn’t mean they’re anywhere close to competing […]

Robert Griffin III started the regular season opener for the Cleveland Browns. He struggled against the Eagles and was unable to show any sign of his old self during the game. RGIII finished with just 190 passing yards and 37 rushing yards while suffering a tough defeat to Philly. Even worse news for Robert Griffin […]
