I don't even give a **** if the rule as is should have taken those back.  Those are real catches in anyone's minds but the lunatics in the NFL office.

I think those were catches as defined by the rules.

So this is it, the day I've been looking forward to and obsessing over for months. Tonight at 8 Eastern the first round of the NFL Draft officially opens. The Browns have picks #1 and #4, though trading out of 4 seems fairly likely if someone like the Bills gets desperate for a QB and offers both of their 1sts this year as well as 2019's.

All the talk today seems to point to the Browns taking Oklahoma quarterback and reigning Heisman Trophy winner Baker Mayfield 1st overall, but last week it was all pointing to Wyoming's Josh Allen and before that USC's Sam Darnold, and at this point I wouldn't be shocked if any of the three of them is the pick. I really don't want Allen, but I'd be happy with either of the other two.

Baker Mayfield and Denzel Ward is definitely not the combo I was expecting, but I'll take it.

The Seahawks need an OL like crazy after years of Russell Wilson running for his life on every play.  So naturally they took... a running back.

ESPN says "Penny is the fifth-ranked running back on our board, so this is a reach."

Yeah, that's what I want to hear: "this is a reach".  No one ever thinks you're clever for using a first round pick on someone no one was going to take in the first round.  That's what the other rounds are for!  Oh I see that Seattle doesn't have another pick until the fourth round.  Okay, so I guess your precious running back won't be there by then but neither will a decent offensive lineman!  Maybe you could have tried to trade that first one round pick for a second and third?  Hell, what good is a running back if your o-line is ****?  Watching a guy run into a wall of defenders at the line of scrimmage isn't a lot of fun, you know?  And again this is a "reach" so he's not even the best running back they could have picked if they were insisting on a running back.

It's a weird situation where this is the same GM and coach that built a Superbowl winning team so they must know what they're doing, right?  Yet with the repeated o-line problems of the last several seasons and their idiotic attempts to address it (including converting a basketball player to an OL; like why not just grab some bouncers from local bars if you're going to train someone from scratch to play at the top level?) you question it.  Can you win a Superbowl and still be an idiot?

So I guess the Philadelphia Eagles were set to go to the White House Tuesday (tomorrow?) to do the presidential visit.

Apparently most of the team didn't plan on attending, partially over the Anthem Dispute, so someone decided to "un-invite" the team, and just have a "Celebrate America" party blasting the Anthem with a the Military band.

This should be interesting. Or a big nothing. I'm sure the players are quite relieved.

The Stand for the Anthem or stay off the field BS is so stupid.

Yes, it is. I don’t really watch football for both a lack of interest as well as personal objections. I kind of feel like the NFL is a **** league run by incompetent people with completely inconsistent and sometimes morally bankrupt messaging. Beyond the awful handling of concussions and new (probably illegal) national anthem rules, the league doesn’t handle domestic abuse particularly well. Teams are still signing players who can’t stop punching women in the face.

I don’t want to get too far into this because I don’t want to get this thread locked.

I'm doing a fantasy football league with some friends and need a couple more people to fill it out. It's just for fun, no money involved. If you're interested in joining, PM me.

Baker Mayfield is the savior Cleveland needed! He sees his first NFL action coming in due to Tyrod Taylor's concussion late in the 2nd quarter with the Browns trailing 14-0 to lead them to a 21-7 comeback!

Nope, there's just going to be a different one in early February.

I'm not much of a football person myself but I do enjoy laughing at some of the stupid things that happen in the NFL. Unfortunately a fair portion of that happens to involve my state's team, the Vikings.

The Cleveland Browns have won on a Sunday for the first time since December of 2015. Baker Mayfield is 2-0 at home.

Everyone was counting the Seahawks out this year, but they have completely turned around since the first two games. Going back to the Super Bowl this year.

Our long nightmare is finally over. Hue Jackson has finally been fired as head coach of the Cleveland Browns after winning only 3 of the 40 games he was in charge for.

I dunno if that was the best move. He didn’t exactly inherit a good team, and it looked like things were finally starting to turn around. Now, they’ll have to bring in two new guys (OC was fired too), and still nurture their rookie QB. Not exactly ideal.

Things looked like they were turning around a month ago, but they've regressed since then. They needed to do something, and this should have been done a long time ago.

I'm going to laugh if the browns lose every game for the rest of the season and get another perfect season next year.

It was a rough few weeks, sure. But is the season gonna get any better now?  You already have your best record through the first 8 weeks in years!  Would've made more sense to wait it out.

The Browns are actually winning games occasionally so something is clearly going very wrong here. Best just burn it all down and start from scratch.
