Went to the Hall of Fame game in 95 between the Panthers and Jaguars with three of my friends.

We were the typical young male numbskulls who didn't plan anything, just hopped in a car and went.

By the end of the day, we were all thirsty, starving and had severe sunburns 😆

That is so cool, man. I have never been so excited for a preseason game. Even watching on TV, it was awesome!

One year ago, during the preseason, was when we all witnessed Rhule "coddling" Darnold and giving him hardly any reps.  We were all left wondering what we would get out of him once the season started.  You think Rhule will coddle Baker the same way as he's clearly emerging as the opening day starter?

...I went to that game also..... I grew up in Canton and had been living in CLT since 87 and wanted to get the taste of the Browns outta my mouff... Jumped on the Panther bandwagon then... Did you miss the Friday night festivities of bands, booze and booty?

It's funny how every nfl season starts and ends with worthless games.  (Hof game and pro bowl)

Jags and Raiders are probably the least interesting teams they could have picked. Not even really any interesting rookies to check out, maybe some random UDFA's will do something

Did you go to McKinley?  I went to Massillon.  I moved down here in 2004.  Went to training camp several years ago at Wofford and been hooked ever since.

When Tyrone Poole made his leaping interception, I jumped too 😄

Was also right there about ten or so feet away when Steve Isreal knocked down that final pass.

Nope. Just drove up the morning of the game and drove back after.

Did get to see the speeches.

Yup.... so im not accustomed to losing...but Massillon/Canton rivalry was awesome.... Think the browns should change their name to the Bulldogs...

Wonder if Carr/Adams will take the opening drive? There is that. 

I still think Trevor has similar appeal to a rookie QB. Given the mess Urban created last year made it all meaningless.  Plus, their other first round pick last year didn’t play last season because of injury.  I’m curious to see how Etienne’s speed looks on the NFL field.    So he basically is a rookie.

I agree!! They should give more respect to the Hall of Famers and make the first game of the season the actual Hall of Fame game.. instead of having to watch Scrubs!!

Tevor's not playing, Not sure about Carr. Adams is supposed to. Jarett Stidham vs CJ Beathard, actually both decent backups. I suppose both teams have new coaches but I doubt they show much as far as playbooks go

Bethard will not be playing.. he pulled his groin.. Looks like Luton for Jacksonville.. not sure who else they have as qb

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I see Bryce's development this way: He improved when his supporting cast improved.  TMac and Dowdle saved his arse last year, but in fairness, most good QBs have good WRs and good RBs--and good OLs.   The 2025 OL underperformed, actually. They were above average, but they should have been elite if you consider the salary cap.   As soon as we signed Lewis and Hunt, I started thinking, "That's not sustainable.  With Ickey about to get paid a LT salary, Moton and Hunt grabbling $50m per season combined, and Lewis around $17m--that would be nearly $100m and the Center just walked.  Yikes.  What does that mean?  Rico walks, Mays walks, and we do not have a top 5 WR on a second contract.  We do not have an elite TE, and only 1 is on a modest second contract. And now Bryce will demand $50m for his incremental rise to mediocrity?   So when we sign Bryce, we will get weaker at other positions.  Hunt, Moton, maybe Ickey and Lewis, will all be casualties--that is the right move regardless (not sure yet about Ickey, but he was not elite) Bryce is one lucky, entitled camper.  No competition since being drafted, and he lost his job for a while to the aging clipboard holder.  Now we are bringing in UDFAs and busts to compete with him.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By 45catfan · Posted

      Probably not.  If we are taking a QB, it would be a prospect to replace Bryce and not a flyer type player.  I can't say for sure, but I doubt he would have cracked the top 3-4 QBs even if he were to play this coming season.

      The Giants, Cardinals  and Dolphins should have moved on, but they didn't and ended up cutting their QB early into a monster second contract and had to eat a TON of dead cap money.
