Browns’ lack of defensive depth pretty glaring in first preseason game loss

I still feel pretty confident in the Browns’ defense for the regular season. We’ve heard about the piling up of injuries in the secondary, though, throughout camp. When the preseason game happened, the depth after the first couple of units was pretty bad in some aspects. It makes sense, as many of the guys playing […]

Browns to showcase new stadium through Browns Experience Center

The Cleveland Browns will close their era on the shores of Lake Erie following the conclusion of the 2028 season and then head to the suburb of Brook Park to play in their new stadium in 2029. But fans won’t have to wait three more years to see what the team has in store for […]

Browns have mixed bag of reps on offense across positions in first preseason game

This offseason, the wide receiver position has been the talk of camp for its performance, which contrasts heavily from a year ago. That continued into the first preseason game. As for the quarterback performances? It was certainly mixed, but a turnover from each quarterback didn’t help matters. After a 10-0 start, the Browns were shut […]

Za’Darius Smith free agency update: Could spurn Browns for former coach

Uh, oh. Here we go again, perhaps. Sunday afternoon, we covered a report that former Cleveland Browns DE Za’Darius Smith was expected to rejoin the team after a visit to Berea.

Browns vs Bears went worse than expected for Cleveland

The Cleveland Browns loss to the Chicago Bears in Week 1 of the 2026 preseason was meaningless, at least as meaningless as any game can be that could impact the starting quarterback for the upcoming season. The Browns had some positives and some negatives against the Bears, but questions remain at a variety of positions […]

ESPN reporter updates Browns QB battle between Deshaun Watson, Shedeur Sanders

One game down, and it seems like Cleveland Browns HC Todd Monken is sticking to his word in giving both QBs Deshaun Watson and Shedeur Sanders a chance to start a preseason game before making a decision about who is the team’s starting quarterback.

Unlike the regular-season schedule, things are a lot heavier for the Cleveland Browns coming off their first preseason game under HC Todd Monken.

Browns offense might require patience this year, and that is okay

People often express patience when it comes to certain things, but struggle when they have to experience it.

Browns fans’ ‘Hope Index’ is low, not the lowest

Browns RB Quinshon Judkins ready to fill Todd Monken’s needs on offense

Defense and a great running game. These are Cleveland Browns hallmarks.

Paul Brown had both with guys like Jim Brown, Ernie Green, Marion Motley, and Bobby Mitchell. RELATED: […]
