Nothing is ****** yet. But it’s getting there. And this would just be too much. It’s silly to keep whining about the brown family when we keep barfing up money to them. It’s no longer them. It’s us.
I do admire that you've remained loyal, especially with the Bucs having the Super Bowl success of the Bucs in 2003 (if you're old enough to have been down there for that) and then a few years ago.
It's hard because, with other struggling sports franchises, at least they're trying to win and usually at least make an effort, but, while we have gotten better, there's still times like these for us.

The FO messed up but they can still get it done. I am not jumping off the cliff like others already have.
I will always be a Bengals fan. The Browns paying Garrett tons doesn't change this for me lol
Every time I think about quitting, I just think about pregaming Sundays downtown and then rolling into the games and cheering.
I think just losing the love of my life (playing football) makes me more attached because it keeps the love and feelings more alive.

I agree. If we can knock out the draft and bring in a few decent FAs, I think we'll be fine.
I don't think losing Tee will hurt us as much as everyone thinks because we have Burrow and Chase. Hendrickson would hurt losing but this site shows that defensive ends' play starts to fall off after age 30 or 31, which Hendrickson will be 30 in October(?), and couple that with the stat I posted earlier in the thread that 7 of his sacks came against teams that had bad o-lines and injuries on the o-lines, and I don't think that he'll be worth the money he'll demand.
