The Browns Are Still the Browns

Yeah, so the Browns suck. There’s no way to sugarcoat it. Every season starts with a little spark of optimism, a few delusional predictions about double-digit wins, and then like clockwork we find ourselves right back in the mud wondering why we ever believed this time would be different.

This week was just another chapter in the same painful story. Another brutal loss, another round of baffling play calls, and another postgame press conference full of hollow coach speak. The power plays of football, momentum, rhythm, consistency, are nowhere to be found. The Browns can’t run the ball, can’t throw it, and can’t stop anyone on the other side. The whole operation feels like a bad group project where nobody knows what the assignment is.

The quarterback situation? A disaster. Interceptions, missed reads, and the kind of intentional grounding that makes you wonder if the guy even knows the rules. Meanwhile, the coach looks like he’s Googling “how to call a football game” between drives. Trick plays, bizarre formations, and a game plan that feels like it was crowdsourced from Reddit. Every week, it’s something new—and somehow worse.

The front office isn’t off the hook either. We’ve got owners more worried about PSL prices and stadium funding than fixing the team, and a GM who seems allergic to addressing obvious needs. It’s the same old Cleveland routine: talk about patience, talk about the future, talk about rebuilding. Newsflash—we’ve been rebuilding since 1999.

The few bright spots on the roster, guys who actually play hard every week, are buried beneath the avalanche of bad decisions. Injuries pile up, the defense looks exhausted, and fans are emotionally spent. The bye week couldn’t come soon enough, not just for the players, but for every fan’s mental health.

And yet, somehow, we’ll all be there next week. Because we’re sick, loyal, and hopelessly tied to this franchise. It’s Halloween season, and while some people pay to get scared, Browns fans live the horror for free every Sunday.

So yeah, the Browns suck. They always have, and until someone with a clue and a heart for Cleveland steps in to fix this circus, they always will. I’ll still tune in, still tailgate, still talk myself into a miracle. But deep down, I know the truth: the scariest thing in football isn’t a blitzing linebacker or a fourth-quarter comeback.

It’s being a Browns fan.
