The Browns' Coaching Search Just Got Sadder And More Desperate
The Browns remain the only NFL team without a head coach. (And the assistants, concerned the front office has no plan, are jumping ship.) Owner Jimmy Haslam told fans to chill out, that this was the plan all along, that the Browns were prepared to wait until all the coaches left in the postseason we...
The Browns Have Essentially No Coaching Staff Right Now
It was stupid when Browns head coach Rob Chudzinski was booted after only one season, but Cleveland's situation is getting dumber. The front office still hasn't found a replacement while other rebuilding teams, like the Texans, Skins, and Vikings, have hired new coaches. And now, while the Browns ha...
How Davone Bess Fell Through The Cracks
Davone Bess's offseason has gone from funny to frightening. One day, he's tweeting photos of weed. The next, he's having what can only be described as a mental breakdown at the airport.

Davone Bess Tweets (Another) Photo Of Weed
Browns receiver Davone Bess tweeted a photo of some weed this morning.

Browns Owner Assures Fans Coaching Search Supposed To Take This Long

The Lesson Of Black Monday: Your NFL Team Doesn't Know What It's Doing
Yesterday was Black Monday in the NFL. My team's coach got fired. Your team's coach got fired. EVERYONE'S coach got fired. If six Fortune 500 CEOs were all shitcanned on the same day, the markets would crash; there'd be barricades in the streets by noon. But it's a telling sign of football cultu...

Damian Lillard And Kyrie Irving Are Why NBA League Pass Exists
It's games like last night's heart-stopper between the Trailblazers and the Cavaliers that remind basketball fans just how spoiled they are. In an era that's blessed by the presence of megastars like LeBron James and Kevin Durant, it's silly to think that there's a whole secondary tier of stars who...
Browns Fan Vastly Improves Brandon Weeden Jersey
Is it as creative as the Trent Richardson alteration? No, but it's still solid. The fact that this dude bought a Brandon Weeden jersey in the first place is heartbreaking, though....
The Rise Of Josh Gordon: The Browns' New Superstar Receiver
Buried, deep within the turd that is the 2013 Browns' offense, there is one bright, shining spot. (Do turds have bright spots? Whatever.) Josh Gordon, the only player taken in the second round of the 2012 supplemental draft, has become one of the best receivers in the NFL. ...
