Rookie Baker Mayfield entered for his NFL regular-season debut late in the second quarter and brought the Browns back from a 14-0 deficit to prevail 21-17, snapping a 19-game winless streak dating back to Dec. 24, 2016 -- a span of 635 days...

Empty and on fire by now.

Bud Light did something like this when the Eagles won the Super Bowl. For the parade they said everyone gets a beer on them. Cool. I went to the parade so I figured "might as well drink a bud light, since it's free and all". But heres the rub. They checked my ID and said I couldn't have one because while I was in Philly I didn't actually live in Philly. My presence at the parade wasn't sufficient evidence to demonstrate my worthiness.

I was torn. I felt like I'd been lied to about getting a free beer. But on the other hand, I didn't really want a bud light. In the end, I decided they did me a favor and I moved on.

Enjoy the free beer, Browns fans who reside within the city limits of Cleveland!

I hear a lot about the NFL, but have no idea what it s.

What the heck is the NFL?

[Bommer]

Wow...no one cares.

[fortheDeclaration]

Oh, they beat the Jets, now that makes sense!

[albie]

I hope they start losing again. Back when players just played football I had interest. I didn’t even know this group of ass wipes had a winless season last year

[relictele]

It would require the rescue of the earth from a giant asteroid for me to drink that swill.

That’s not beer, that’s boar piss!

[MGunny]

Who cares?

[Alas Babylon!]

They beat the Jets....

Figures, LOL!

[VastRWCon]

I heard you can get killed bringing the wrong beer to the party...

[Chode]

was there anybody there to see it?

Baker Mayfield is awesome !
Used to tape criticisms he heard about himself inside his locker, determined to prove ‘em wrong. A fighter.

NFL: Lefist thugs and cowards.

Plus Mayfield is a conceited jerk.

In college, after Oklahoma beat Ohio State in Columbus, Mayfield planted an OU flag on the mid-field O, making him the most hated man in Ohio. I’d say that all changed last night.

Let’s see, what could be more anti-Trump than the NFL. Maybe a nice thread on the Emmys.

I have a feeling that Taylor’s concussion might keep him out the rest of the season.

[TangledUpInBlue]

It should. I was watching last night and the lift that team got was electric as soon as Baker came on the field. Even the head coach said “he really gave the team a charge”.

I’m left wondering, what the hell were the coaches thinking then by starting Tyrod? With Baker, the ball comes out faster, he’s more mobile or just as, and his arm’s much stronger.

Btw, I’m a Cowboys fan so I’ve got no skin here - but I am a Head Coach and can pretty much tell what I’m looking at. As soon as he came in I told my wife, the Browns will win this game. I wasn’t surprised this morning at all. If the Browns had a reliable kicker, they’d be 2-1 right now and maybe even 3-0. They’ve turned.
