They were doing some really stupid stuff, the kind of stuff teams do when they're trying to show how tough they are.
Can't argue with you on this point.

On a related note, one of the things that drives me nuts about the Steelers defense is how often they have a guy in their sights but try to go for the knockout hit. It’s frustrating enough when the hits are dirty, but more often than not the attempt fails spectacularly, accomplishing little more than changing the runner’s course a little, allowing them to to get gobs of extra yards in the process. It happened at least once last night. Learn how to tackle, for crying out loud.

I can't believe that Bozo tried to kick someone...Kitchens yelled "You don't play for the Bengals"
I hate it when it's fourth down and a mile the commit a stupid penalty and gives up a first down.
What is it with this preseason and not playing starters? These players now a days are to pampered.

They have a 'tough guy rep' to protect.

Clowns are still the clowns, as expected.
All those sexy free agent acquistions won't mean a damn thing. THe Brown's front office was stupid enough to pass the reigns of this team to someone with zero head coaching experience. Kitchens is way over his head.
I suspect pundits and Clown fans will be frothing at next season's potential by week 10.

A Browns fan (a couple actually) were just in my shop and the husband imparted this nugget.
Roses are Red
Voilets are Blue
Byner is in the end zone
But the ball is at the two.
True story.

If they somehow dont win against the jets, the whole thing is going to go horribly wrong very quickly with all the divas and egos they have on that roster. Who's gonna bring the marshmallows to toast over that dumpster fire?

Maybe you don’t know what hype is?

41-17 yeah no hype there. Well except for delighted San Francisco 49ers fans filled the lower bowl of the stadium.

Today felt like validation for all the shitting I've done on this team since January of 2016.
Now I just have an extra team to laugh at this season.
