Trade for Rodgers. 

Not sure if that happens before or after we all sprout wings and fly.

Probably after.

On the road? We're already there.

Yes, we are a bottom 5 team in the league currently. I just meant that the way were headed, we might be in Purgatory like the Detroit Lions,, Cleveland for decades .  Not just a couple of years.

Honestly I would feel better if Tepper stepped in front of a microphone and explained why he felt Rhule deserves another year. Him saying nothing and moving on to his sacred soccer team pisses me off more than anything that transpired during our season.

When I think about this I can't help but be reminded of how often he sought out a microphone when the team had that very public falling out with Cam in early 2020. It was that mess that led us to Bridgewater and then to Darnold because the decision makers had to have an instant solution to validate the original mess. Bringing back Cam only brought it all full circle. My goodness you have to laugh to keep from crying.

Exactly. This desire to hear from him is driven in large part by how vocal and involved he was when this all started going down; the silence is a notable change that makes people wonder. If he had stayed in the background from the start (relatively speaking given his status as a new owner) or not commented on football matters then no one would be wondering why he's now quiet.

Tepper sells the team. That's about the only thing to get me excited.  Other than that? Just don't care.

But with the need for a new stadium, that could signal the start of the St Louis Panthers.

...I'm afraid you are probably going to be right... I've been a closet Browns fan since the 70's and seen it all... We have all the makings of a perennial loser in motion.

Would be renamed the St Louis Clydesdales.

I sure don't want the Panthers to move there.  But if some team did, that would be an awesome name !

The team could come out of the tunnel for each game behind 3 or 4 galloping Clydesdales.  What a sight that would be !

That is the one thing that would keep me from supporting the team next year

Huh? Why?  I don’t want to give up what it would take for him given his age, but if we did they would definitely have my attention.

A good draft and free agency period will get me excited for 2022. After all we are either much improved this year or Rhule is gone. But if we have good talent then we will be on an upswing either in 2022 or in 2023 when the new regime takes over.

Mainly because the first anheiser Busch brewery was in st Louis. The stadium would still probably serve stale beer though.
