When you hang on to a HC that's 0-7 in the playoffs it sends a signal to the players that you're ok with mediocrity. The players then subconsciously work less and the results permeate and make the team horrible.

defensive half time adjustments anyone???

Looks like baker is gonna own this division and Steelers will be good so we’ll be battling the basement with Baltimore for the foreseeable future

FYI the Browns defense gives up 30 less yards and 5 fewer points per game than the Bengals.

Just saying, I'd rather be the QB facing the Bengals defense. Especially with how they've melted down of late.

Bwahaha   

Wont make a difference since the browns scored at will.  Still no punts and the browns basically gave up that last drive.

Perfect QB for Mike Brown!

Browns put up 296 yards that half. It's staggering how this defense is poor week after week. Bengals gave up over 2500 yards the last 5 games coming into this.

How much do we miss Zimmer.

We usually come out weaker after 2nd half adjustments. I think we hardly scored in the 3rd quarter. 3 & out is my bet, as hard as I try NOT to be a Neg Nan.

I picked a bad day to stop drinking.

Me thinks Mike Brown’s Way of running this franchise is a stark contrast from the way the NFL wants things ran. How else can anyone explain biased officiating against this team regardless of officiating crew and who we are playing.

It most definitely establishes a framework in which failure is not only tolerated, but accepted without consequence.

Remember when we could have fired Marvin after the 2015 meltdown and promoted Zimmer?

Fun stuff.

Forget yards. The distance the Cincinnati defense gives up per game should be measured in light years.

Le sigh...I was just thinking of that. Loyalty bites Mike Brown again and again.

Well we are talking about an owner who's first decision he ever made at the helm was firing Sam Wyche followed by the second decision of hiring Dave Shula over Bill Cowher.

Last time we won a playoff game, we had a left-handed QB.

Just sayin.

Mike Brown is the welfare recipient of the Nfl Owners.

Yeah. Browns are now going to run the ball down the Bengals throats instead of throwing it.
