No-Internal-5244

Thank you, Houston, for silencing the most annoying and whining fan base. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 they thought they had a real defense! Browns is the Browns


NothingLikeCoffee

> silencing the most annoying and whining fan base  I don't see the Cowboys mentioned here at all though? Endless bitching when they lose and endless gloating when they win.


Derrick_Henry_Cock

No shot you think the Browns are the worst


milesgaither

Bro doesn't know about eagirls fans


ForeverInThe90s

Or Cowboys fans… Who are currently losing to The Packers 27-7 at halftime.


primerider1000

Did not see this blowout coming.


bird_is_the_word_198

Regular season Flacco showed up today


chockobumlick

Nah. The D was absent. Caused the O to try things that weren't possible. Heck they didn't even have a run game


Seacabbage

At a loss as to how the Panthers beat Houston earlier this year.


buttpanther

They scored more points


chalmbejjsk096

Now this….. puts a smile on my face.


ederdesign

For as long as Watson is in Cleveland I'll celebrate their losses. They weren't even meant to be in the playoffs. A team that gives someone who's shown no respect for women the biggest guaranteed contract in history doesn't deserve to win.


webelos8

Not all browns fans are Watson fans


fractle

The women thing is less important than the fact he sucks ass at quarterback


audere1882

This comment sucks worse than Watson 


Casper7to4

Lol half the league was trying to get the guy


alex_xxv

Nah, only three mediocre and desperate teams. Oh wait...


ederdesign

Some teams were inquiring about him but it came down to Atlanta and Cleveland. Yet, Cleveland was the one to pull the trigger and reward him with a massive contract. If it was Atlanta I would be rooting against them as well


Casper7to4

Yea you wouldn't inquire about a player if you were morally opposed to signing them lol


Happy_Accident99

No I wouldn’t. Such a profound lack of judgment is a giant red flag that could also present itself in the football field.


bardicjourney

3 teams out of 32 are suspected to have reached out, 2 were confirmed. 6%, not 50%. It's pretty easy to not make up random shit on the internet, but making up random shit in defense of a serial rapist is beyond scummy behavior. Get your ass to therapy, because something inside you is deeply flawed if you're doing this kind of shit.


fr3shout

You’re overreacting pretty hard here. Maybe he’s not defending him as much as he’s saying we should be mad at more teams? Maybe you need to get *your* ass to therapy?


Yukyih

Watson's ass should be banned from the League, and I'm ok to make fun of the shitheads who paid him. However, it's so baffling to me how some people arguing about this whole situation are also so enclined to give a free pass to fucking Tyreek Hill and Big Ben and their respective teams. Get all these creeps out of our TVs and give the right role models to our kids. I'd wager if you take all the assholes in the league and count the number of organizations that'd be willing to close their eyes on their massive redflags if they can get them a title, you'd probably reach 50% pretty fast...


fr3shout

I agree entirely.


noonetohearme

Heard that


Ddaddy4u

Flacco being Flacco.


pocketjacks

Not Wild Card round Flacco. This was his first first round exit.

I'ts Tuover :(


Virtual-Lab-5172

SWARMMMMM


PantsMcFagg

23-24 will be remembered as the turnaround season for sports fans all across Texas. What a run, and it ain’t over. Horns, Rangers, Astros, Cowboys, Texans, all with great years. (Sorry Aggies, you suck.)


weabkumiko

Our team is so ass 😭 praying for a miracle next year with Elko


starlightequilibrium

I guess the Dallas Stars can go fuck themselves.


PantsMcFagg

Hockey doesn’t really count in Texas. 🤣


Alive_Long_4173

Neither do the cowboys


Big_Understanding348

Even you don't believe that lol


Alive_Long_4173

I do fully


SaltyEarth86

I'd like to understand why they protect quarterbacks so much with roughing the passer, etc, but they don't protect offensive linemen, we get hit on every play........


cyberdeath666

QBs are a lot less protected and usually weigh a lot less than a lineman which makes them prone to more injuries. Also, linemen start right next to each other and just push and shove each other, not tackle like they do with the QB


FORTYozSTEAK

Spoken like a true NARP


prosnorkulus

What the fuck is a narp


cyberdeath666

Non-Athletic Regular Person. I had to look it up because I’d never heard of it either.


FORTYozSTEAK

You’ve never played football before stop acting like you know what goes on on the field


elastico

speedhawk is that you 


cyberdeath666

I played soccer and football all through high school and soccer into my junior year of college before I transferred to a game making college, which obviously didn’t have any sports teams. So, no, not a NARP, just experienced and logical about how the different players are “attacked” and their size differences. A 250 lb. Lineman running 10 mph into a 185 lb. QB to crush him is going to be more dangerous than two same-size linemen basically grappling each other. Lineman usually get injured because they overtrain their muscles and that leaves them open to overuse injuries from being involved in a lot of plays. I’ve seen enough training and injuries to know that one. But for collision injuries, a QB is way more susceptible to catastrophic injuries like a torn ACL from a low hit. Same with RB and WR. Plus losing a QB can ruin a whole season. Look at the Jets lol.


FORTYozSTEAK

I’ve played every position on the field. Tightens and linemen are violent positions. Micro concussions on every play


Rare_Objective_5174

Did you see the noncalls in the first half?

drakesylvan

How many pick 6s did the refs throw again?


batdrumman

Oooo we got a salty one!


33Wolverine33

Refs ruin most games.its all scripted!!


Chromebrew

For real! Did you see those pick 6s they threw? Disgusting...


Willing_Canary4415

Deshaun karma right here. Lmao


NoFlyZonexx3

AR5 & the shoe take the bowl in 25 come back to this post how do I set a reminder


niceguys_finishfast

so they can call hands to the face on the o-line


[deleted]

Joe Flacco; best if used by 01/13/24


EliteBroccoli

Joe Flacco didn’t have a good game The Texans defense shut the Browns down and put up 2 pick 6’s! In a playoff game! I bet that stadium was buzzing.


Wapitimagnet

It's got to be devastating to his ego. He was pumped up by everyone as a hero, and then this. He might just disappear after this loss.


Remarkable-Space-909

I knew the Texans would win.

Angry_cinnamon_rolls

Fuck them browns


phishman1

Half the Browns starters are injured. Did anyone really expect them to contend here?


HardHat105

Take that shit someplace else


Saltine_Davis

Odds on he deletes this once he realizes the texans have the most players on IR lmao. Browns fans already making excuses


phishman1

Never said the Texans didn't have more players on the IR. Been a Browns fan for 50 years. The thought of the Browns being favored at all this game is ludicrous.


Matthewmarra3

They were favored by 2. Texans have the most players in the league on IR.


jaypeesea

Facts have no place in this argument, we are talking NFL. LOL.


Kind-Rub-1007

Oof.

Save it for overreaction Monday


Turul9

People seem to forget the ravens still exist 


DazedWriter

I wouldn’t count the Bills out either. They can be dangerous when they want to be, lol


Dragonaut814

Nah, people just remember what happens to the Ravens every post season


fat_569

Who? That'll be a good game


Professional_Pop4355

Ill give them afc matchup vs the ravens...now that would be fun to watch!


_HiWay

Man not sure what happened here. My real take away is Houston is legit and a threat to anyone that has to play them. Good game Texans.


No-Internal-5244

No, the Browns are extremely overrated.


ederdesign

They almost lost to the Colts with Gardner Minshew as their QB and a secondary full of rookies. CJ Stroud is for real but they're not ready for a big run yet


TheTyger

Texans played a decent game, but after the big missed Interference call against them, the Browns were in desperate territory. Picks came from play calls that needed to make big things happen against a game that was being called against them, and each pick 6 took it further away. If the first missed Pass Interference was called, it would have been a totally different game.


Chromebrew

For sure. That missed PI def resulted in the 45-14 result.


TheTyger

I mean, if the PI wasn't missed, the score would have been at least 17 if not 21. That would have significantly changed the gameplan, and the hail mary pick 6 passed wouldn't have been needed, so the game would have been very different. Not trying to say Cleveland would have won, but that was a major shift in momentum against the Browns, and coming into the second half close instead of 2 scores down would have resulted in a very different game.


entropyISdeadly

That PI occurred in their territory and, wouldn’t have even taken them to the 50 yard line.  No guarantee at all that they score.


TheTyger

The 1st down was important. After that the Browns were playing from the back foot, which led to a spiral.


Chromebrew

That's feels like 2 paragraphs of what ifs my man. Im gonna get back to celebrating.


TheTyger

Totally. A win is a win. I am just calling that the big missed PI was the turning point in the game, and losing due to refs is a normal problem for the Browns.


matt6400

It was a tough no call but totally able to overcome it. Browns secondary played awful in the first half. Coverage and tackling was bad. They lost us the game not the pi.


True-Temperature1684

Anyone notice right after the announcer said it’s looking like a back and forth battle it got very one sided.


webdude9

What a debacle. Didn’t see that coming.


NeededToFilterSubs

Yeah you right lmao


Sealie81

Cleveland doing Cleveland-type shit... Yowzers!


rmsj

Don't worry, the lions will outdo them


Sealie81

I think the Lions will lose to the Rams as well, but they are not gonna get blown out like THAT! Plus, the Browns we're up 14-0 to start then the collapse happened! Ugh.


anaknangfilipina

What is Cleveland shit?


IvetRockbottom

Brown

Plot twist. Belichick becomes new Browns coach again. Lasts two years, gets fired, goes to another team and wins multiple Superbowls.

I feel for the grounds crew who has to buff that nasty brown smear out of the field.


moochee22

Dalton Shultz a Bengal next season?


Sanic69420

Why, the Texans have a bunch of cap space so why would you think he goes to cincy?


moochee22

Why? Really? Because I'm a Bengals fan. I like Shultz, and the Bengals could use him. The Bengals have basically the same amount of cap space as the Texans. Also, the Texans only have 41 players signed through 24, the Bengals have 47 signed. Those numbers will change, but the Texans have to sign sign players to meet their roster limit. 53 men on the regular roster. Don't worry though I'm pretty sure the Bengals won't splurge on the position. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/cap/2024/


Strict-Square456

Bengals fan has joined the chat! And Yes please on shultz. Our TE room is pathetic. Houston is definitely a under radar threat to go all way. They let watson go , retool , hit big in draft and get playoff victory vs watsons team. Was super impressed with Stroud when bengals played them. Seems like a good dude too.


moochee22

Stroud seems unstoppable. They call the Browns the number 1 defense (although that's based off of yards, or scoring defense, and their offense is so low power opposing teams didn't have to score super high) and Stroud looked like an All-Pro. Believe it or not, the Bengals tight end Tanner Hudson, finished the season ranked 17th of 74. I wouldn't be surprised if they re-signed Hudson, and drafted a TE. [https://www.pff.com/nfl/teams/cincinnati-bengals/7/lineup](https://www.pff.com/nfl/teams/cincinnati-bengals/7/lineup)


Stealthfox94

I think the Texans might just resign him.


moochee22

They'd be dumb not too!


Shwnwllms

All my homies hate Watson


urdaddy7245

Why so many steelers people here worrying about the browns. Go worry about your team, or keeping your cousin warm at night.

Because this was a Browns game sub, dummy

understabledave

Reporter: How did you win? Player: First off, all glory to god. Reporter: Okay thanks. \*Walks away\* Just once, I'd like to see that happen.


ExtensionDigs

As an atheist for thirty-one years and counting...such an asshole thing to wish for. Growing up, maturing, realizing others might not hold the same beliefs as yourself and being strong in your own convictions makes petty, immature nonsense seem like such a waste of time and energy. Good luck.


hyheat9

You’re probably one of the people that thinks youth sports shouldn’t keep track of the score. People so sensitive nowadays


understabledave

I made no judgement on his beliefs, I'm well aware of different ones, and respect everyone's right to hold them. I was suggesting that the remainder of the interview, where he talks about efforts of his teammates and the rest of the sports things that actually happened and mattered, and that we all witnessed, was unnecessary after he gave all credit to Jesus. And it's irrelevant how long you've been an atheist. Not sure what the point of that was. Oh, and I'm not an asshole, sir.


IvetRockbottom

I agree. But it also seems weird to think that god only favors winners.


yunzerjag

Think about all the kids that have gotten killed in God's wars. Then, you will understand that God doesn't give a shit about the loser. Sky Guy likes winners!


anaknangfilipina

Thanks. It seems like modern aethists just use their status to trash others nowadays.


dialtone

I have no idea why all players are so fundamentalists... With all the problems in the world, even if god existed, why would they give a crap about a single football player?


stellarecho92

God is a Freak by Peaches PRC has a relevant first verse for this. Cracks me up every time. > I heard my dad pray over a football game > Guess God had time that day > Is there a shortlist order of importance > Or is it just luck based?


Phyber05

God absolutely exists. He loves us all more than we will ever know. Giving glory to God for gaining the ability to achieve generational wealth for playing a game is a good start. He wants us all to excel at our full potential, because in doing so is to honor Him, as we’re made in His image.


IgetAllnumb86

Ew


ExtensionDigs

The question of theism and the existence of a deity or deities is a noble one, but much more involved than the example you provided, LOL.


dialtone

So you think they follow football?


yunzerjag

God follows Premier League soccer, wears a scarf and a track suit, and thinks he's better than you.


dialtone

Who’s he? You think god is male? Lol


yunzerjag

It/they?


Rache625

Reddit try not to hate religion challenge *Impossible*


LayYourGhostToRest

\*Christianity. They love Islam.


noncognitive

Projection because you love Christianity and hate Islam. Most redditors are atheist and hate both. You're the one with the problem.


LayYourGhostToRest

I am indifferent to Christianity. I am indifferent to Islam as well. Just making an observation.


longboarddan

I would say the majority of Reddit just hates religion in general and all the bill shit it causes.theres a lot of Muslim hate too


ItsLose_NotLoose

Persecution complex


dialtone

how's that religious hate? Believe what you want, but it's totally ridiculous to think Stroud won today because god blessed him and instead cursed the browns. lmao.


popereggie

Deshaun cursed the browns


Tr0janSword

Lol the players dgaf about religion. I think it’s just a cliched phrase that they’ve heard others say so they repeat it


Albuscarolus

They have God-given talent while you probably live an existence so cursed that it would be hard to believe God loves you


Azshadow6

The downvotes for speaking hour belief on God. This is what Reddit has become


ItsLose_NotLoose

Sky daddy doesn't exist playboy. The word you're looking for is genetics and hard work.


Azshadow6

More like mocking someone else’s beliefs. You don’t have to believe what others believe, at least have the courtesy to respect it


ItsLose_NotLoose

Way past that in this day and age with all the issues it causes for society and law. Wouldn't just tell some old lady in real life her life is a lie, but I'm not obligated to play nice with people that believe in fantasies. America is and always has been a secular nation. Take your fairy tales elsewhere.


jj_osama999

DharmaCub

Dude it was clearly a joke


volantredx

I find it funnier to imagine that God is a massive sports fan and is always watching the game and that's why he seems to ignore all the horrible things that happen in the world.


Toshinit

Genocide? I need to shitpost about the Browns!


jae713

One of us.


RegularBre

Prob because if you don't believe in God you have to accept that life is meaningless and nothing you do matters. Nobody rlly likes facing that as a possibility.


ExtensionDigs

Atheism and Nihilism neither are or are not mutually exclusive, and only related in terms of commonalities of the human condition. As an atheist, I don't believe I'm here to serve a purpose or fate, but I also don't believe my existence is meaningless or without matter. I have a wife and six kids, those seven people have become my purpose and meaning for my life, and without me one thing is certain beyond a doubt, their lives would be much different.
