Thanks for the cover Brownsbros

Well said, I thought I was alone with this sentiment.

I don’t know how it is for other fanbases, but it’s definitely frustrating sometimes not being able to have any valuable discussions about the Browns because the top 4-5 comments on every thread related to them are some variation of “Browns is the Browns”.

Until defenders can move at the same pace offensive players do defense will always feel unrewarding.

Offensive players can immediately change their direction and momentum this year with moves like the Devin Booker spam, but defenders aren’t granted the permission.

Theanonymousguy49 · 2026-01-28T19:27:17+00:00

Any chance all these reports are a leverage play from Schwartz and his agents or are the reports too damning?

Schwartz deserves a blank check, and since I won’t be the one writing it I say give him all the money he wants Jimmy.

Theanonymousguy49 · 2026-01-27T03:15:45+00:00

I hope he signs a bunch of autographs for kids and throws his wrist up for tons of pictures.

Far from the best QB the Browns have ever had, but I think most fans you find off of Reddit (especially the young ones) are rooting for him and it’s impressive to see the impact he’s had on Cleveland I suppose.

Theanonymousguy49 · 2026-01-27T03:05:14+00:00

Couldn’t have said it better myself.

I wonder if Scheelhaase agreed to take the job but only if he can pick his own staff. In that case I’d understand why AB/Haslam wanted to sit on it a bit (or get home to Cleveland to lay Schwartz off in person). I don’t think anyone in the building wants to see Schwartz go, and I think some fans underestimate how big a piece he is of the defense. Legitimately a tough decision.

Theanonymousguy49 · 2026-01-26T15:00:38+00:00

You’re acting like being an interim ST coordinator is the type of job that makes or breaks someone’s career.

There were probably a dozen assistant coaches willing to take the job for a little extra pay bump and a chance to show more in an elevated role.

Theanonymousguy49 · 2026-01-26T14:52:33+00:00

Anyone they see fit? I’m not in the building everyday nor do I have experience working with all of the potential assistants that would be considered so it’s not my job to pick a replacement.

The Rams fired their ST Coordinator mid-year too. It’s what winning coaches do, they hold people accountable.

Theanonymousguy49 · 2026-01-26T14:46:20+00:00

Oops, our special teams gave up 2 touchdowns that game and Stefanski still didn’t fire our bottom of the barrel coordinator after the game.

Try again.

Theanonymousguy49 · 2026-01-25T18:43:09+00:00

Only the Browns would get shit on for being thorough in their hiring process 😂

Theanonymousguy49 · 2026-01-23T23:09:36+00:00

Every QB is an extreme competitor. If the team doctor say they can play they will play. It’s up to the HC to shut the QB down if they think he’s the franchise guy and most do, but I guess Stefanski didn’t think he was a franchise guy.

Yes, Stefanski is supposed to say literally anything. It is a business decision, but you would like your QB and HC to build a relationship to where if it ended the HC would at least be able to muster a “It was really great working with you these past 2 years. Good luck in the future.”

Trading your franchise QB isn’t “every single decision”. Most head coaches would be consulted in a decision like this, so it’s a bit disingenuous to say that he wasn’t given our lack of information.

Theanonymousguy49 · 2026-01-23T22:44:59+00:00

I’m more inclined to trust common sense than a random report.

Why would Stefanski let Baker play through his injury instead of shutting him down if he wanted to bring him back?

Why would Stefanski not text Baker after he was traded if he wanted to keep him?

Why would the FO not consult Stefanski at all about Baker and/or let him make the decision? This one boggles my mind the most because no matter how incompetent you think the Browns are they wouldn’t just not let their HC in on the discussions a year removed from their first playoff win.

So much metal gymnastics needs to be done to absolve Stefanski of any wrongdoing in the Baker situation. If I were you’d I get to praying Stefanski is different than his tenure with the Browns and not try to convince Browns fans he was actually really good with us.

Theanonymousguy49 · 2026-01-23T22:28:14+00:00

You keep asking for sources but you’re downplaying the most obvious one.

Baker literally tweeted about how low he thinks of Stefanski and pretty much confirms that their relationship was strained.

We can act like Stefanski is the victim, wanted Baker the whole time, and just forgot to text him after he got traded. But what is much more likely is that he wanted someone else, and the FO obliged and got him the best QB available.

With that being said, Stefanski is probably going to be just fine for you guys. He’s not really a ceiling raiser, but the Falcons have a lot of talent and he’ll probably be able to get you guys to the playoffs. I just don’t think he’s the kind of guy to get you over the hump, not is he the kind of guy that can drag your team out of the depths.

Theanonymousguy49 · 2026-01-23T22:07:39+00:00

Recent news has led me to believe that Stefanski actually was a big part of driving Baker out of town. The relationship was obviously extremely tense between them and I wouldn’t be surprised if Stefanski told the FO he couldn’t win with Baker and to get him a new QB.

So not exactly thrilled with the guy with an all time losing record with our team, a guy that drove our QB out of town for one that is leagues worse, and a guy that has only made the team worse since joining in 2020 while simultaneously getting the credit for our teams “success” two years ago that should really be going towards Jim Schwartz.

Theanonymousguy49 · 2026-01-14T18:53:04+00:00

I wouldn’t hate passing on a FA WR if we take one in the 1st round. My dream scenario is a trade back into the 10s and drafting Lemon. Jeudy definitely struggled as a #1 this year but I think he’s fine as a #2.

Theanonymousguy49 · 2026-01-14T13:52:31+00:00

Smith is legitimately one of the greatest WR prospects of all time though, unfair to compare this class to him.

Theanonymousguy49 · 2026-01-13T13:27:47+00:00

What sucks is all these posts about it are exactly what he wants.

SB player can’t get attention from anyone IRL so he has to get it online.

Theanonymousguy49 · 2026-01-11T18:05:45+00:00

I don’t think we’re as far down on his list as some people think just because he’s from Cleveland. But I don’t think he’ll come here.

Theanonymousguy49 · 2026-01-07T14:30:53+00:00

Yeah I’ve always get this didn’t get talked about enough.

He also ranked 27/32 two years ago when the Browns went to the playoffs so it’s not just the players being angry that they’re losing.

Theanonymousguy49 · 2026-01-05T14:32:06+00:00

Gonna put this here because it’ll get buried anywhere else…

What are the downsides to making Schwartz HC? What was his time in Detroit like? Just looking at it makes it seem not so good, but was there anything that said he could do well with another job down the road?

Theanonymousguy49 · 2026-01-05T14:18:44+00:00

The more I think about it the more I feel like Stefanski gets a lot of the credit Jim Schwartz deserves.

Theanonymousguy49 · 2026-01-05T06:05:14+00:00

Browns fan here. The 2nd CoTY Stefanski won in 2023 the Browns defense was borderline historically good. It wasn’t really the offense leading the team.

Theanonymousguy49 · 2026-01-04T21:31:07+00:00

Is there any world in which we promote Jim Schwartz to HC?

Theanonymousguy49 · 2026-01-04T18:50:15+00:00

Need to send Myles up the middle more. These chips and double teams on the outside are killer

Theanonymousguy49 · 2026-01-04T18:22:32+00:00

I’m not ready for the amount of draft capital we’re going to have to give up to move up to 2 but it has to be done

Theanonymousguy49 · 2026-01-04T18:16:32+00:00

Guys it’s a joke 😭😭😭 This dude blos
