Cowherd has always used browns fans passion to his advantage. They are not real takes, just meant to engage the fans for the most clicks possible.

Slow news day! Look at the bright side. 10 years ago this take wouldn’t even be controversial

[@C-Land_Browns]

Really? Funny I've never watched his show once! 💯

[@tycobb8621]

The only way you’d put the Browns at at any lower than 2nd in the division is if you have a personal axe to grind against Cleveland. Which he does. Ever since Mayfield out-classed him on his own show 😂

[@tycobb8621]

Brown achieved 2nd in the division without Chubb and a patchwork QB room. Like WTF is cowherd on??!? 😂

[@PweeBurntPizza]

Even finishing 2nd will basically guarantee a playoff spot. But for the organization and fans sake we have to win the dang division.

DW4 his facemask was grabbed on the opaline no call. DPJ was raped like big Ben did in back to back years on that PI call no call. The nfl gave you 70 free yards or we would've beat that ass twice.

The Browns played against cupcake QBs last year. The Browns got exposed by CJ STROUD . The schedule is tougher this year. The Browns need to win 11 games to make playoffs

[@user-or5nx1nr5d]

Haha. FLACCO played against cupcake qbs and threw two pick sixes versus houston. Don't put that on defense. Watson beat burrow and also lamar in Baltimore, not exactly cupcakes. Newsflash: Flacco is gone. Browns will win division.

YOU SAID IT BACKWARDS. It’s, “If you ain’t got no haters, you ain’t poppin’!” Haters don’t make you pop. Haters hate BECAUSE you’re poppin’! Everybody poppin’ has haters. It’s a necessary part of being great, but not everybody who has haters is poppin’. Some scrubs have haters. In other words, having haters comes with the territory of poppin’, but some non-poppin’ folks can have haters too.

I would not give Berry or Kevin an extension. I think Berry draft at best was c trending towards a D Kevin jealous won't bring back hunt and let Flacco go

[@duanelumpkin4400]

The Browns have another chance to “sneak up” on the rest of the field this coming season because of who they have been in the past and hopefully they can take advantage of that. The national sports media have always been anti-Browns and we, Browns fans, must recognize that. C’mon Browns fans just continue to support our Dawgs!! 🏈😎👍🏾

[@keithevans6846]

I disagree with the Joe Burrow injury prone take. Joe Burrow played 55 games and missed only 13 games due to injury and played 2 full years.

[@user-or5nx1nr5d]

Watson shut up the haters last year, and will do so again with finally a modern offense suited for him. Same way defense improved with new coordinator. Haters here and elsewhere gonna hide, but we know who they are. Gonna be fun to lay it on for next 6 years.

Good take. Plus every other AFC North team has had three years of 1st round picks, and all the Browns have to show for it is Watson.

[@aldrob108]

Colin’s prediction is not far fetched and it is reasonable. He is not saying the Browns stick or are terrible. They just happen to be in the best division in football where the 4th place team could have 9 wins. The Browns have that big question mark at quarterback. Until he proves himself , the Browns are the 4th best team. If Deshaun can somehow become the player he was, what was is it four years ago now, then the Browns could be the first place team. That’s a big if, though.

[@WSAMP24]

Yea, Watson has not played well since 2020. that is a long time in football years. And the last couple years Burrow, Lamar, Russ, and Fields all have put up better per game stats than Watson has

[@maverick89ify]

Really because they finished 2nd last year without that qb in question…so just wondering why this year they’d be worse?

[@WSAMP24]

@@maverick89ify because Flacco clearly played better than Watson by almost every passing metric. Now they got worse at QB, so naturally you would think the offense will be worse.

[@edalexander6155]

See i think deffrent than Colin. I think the only thing that would keep a team like the browns that have the total package. Is the coaches. Yes Kevon done wonders with his musical chair qb situation last yr. But look at his coaching job in the playoff game against Houston. A rookie qb a rookie head coach and our defense could not stop Stroud. And our offense play calling had nothing. So im not surprised they have not signed Staffanski to a contract extension. And Berry also. Has he had a player he drafted come out and be a deffrence maker. Barrys best decision makeing move was probably bringing Vrabel on board. If Kevon starts out with a 1 and 4 record . Look for Vrabel to take over And Schwartz will get his chance to keep his job. Vrabel is hungry. He will coach again if not us then somewhere else in 2025. Its time Browns to make Colin look bad. 🟫🟧⬜️🟧🟫

I dont think there the weakest team player wise. But they may be the weakest coached. With that being said the staff needs to be gone if they dont get at least 10 wins and a wildcard.

[@edalexander6155]

If the Browns dont win the division its because they dont have the right coach. And they have qb issues. Besides i think Pittburg with Tomlin he will have them in the playoffs this yr. Cincinnati Joes to fragile. And there OC left. And Higgins wants out of there. Same thing with there best deee lineman. Balt Jackson he will get inj again . There time is running out. Good coach though. But will never make it back to a superbowl. Hes a one hit wonder. Hes brother will be there in 2 yrs.

Bullshit it was 3 bad weather games wk 1 how did great white hope burrow do injury prone couldn't even complete a pass in the rain. Blowout. Saints game year before 70 mph winds DW4 played well in that game. Cooper Njoku DPJ dropped passes. The year before beat Ron Rivera and Washington's top 10 defense. This year broke his shoulder week 1 had a high ankle sprain beat the ravens on the road down 17. AND STILL WENT 4-1 WITH JED WILLS BEING THE WORSE LT IN THE NFL IN PASS PROTECTION. So gtfoh he ain't played that bad yall just racist haters mad a black man got paid. But yall don't bring up rich old white owners kraft Jones Snyder all did the same thing never got punished. TEXANS GAVE HIM HOTELS AND NDA'S AND PAID OFF MORE WOMEN THAN DW4 DIDNT GET PUNISHED.

[@thefonzies6895]

So naw ain't nobody buying them narratives he played he has 84 qb rating that's not bad at all being rusty with a broken shoulder flacco didnt get us to playoffs DW4 did by beating cincy Tennessee Baltimore. PJ walker beat the colts and DTR beat the steelers that gave us all the tie breakers. Great white hope int throwing Joe flacco plated a weak schedule as soon as he played against competition he got exposed. 10 ints in 5 games flacco on pace to 25 ints but hes white i get it 😂😂😂

Browns will suck for at least another decade because they sold the farm for Deshaun and their drafts will be bare for many years.
