Try as you may, but there is no running from the idea that the Browns past and potential future will be on display come this Sunday’s AFC title game. For the 5-11 Browns, the closest type of simulation they will have in terms of playing late January football comes in the form of the Jets.

It must be the offseason - at least in Berea - since Josh Cribbs and the Browns are engaged in what has become their annual contract standoff. And while the issues are largely the same as last year, the names have changed…at least on the Browns’ end.
Gone is Eric Mangini as the czar-ish one-man command [...]

As Charlie Frye broke the Oakland huddle yesterday afternoon, a feeling somewhat unknown swept across Browns Nation - confidence.
Our suddenly “peaking” Browns have now won three straight games, a number that is relatively astronomical, at least compared to the dark days of months past. And beyond the wins, the spirit of inspired, passionate football that [...]

Before watching the team that beat our team get destroyed by a slightly competent team today, let’s pause and give thanks for all we have on this most American of holidays. And lucky for Cleveland Reboot, we got these just in time.

As I’m prattling away earlier about report cards and Dick Jauron, Eric Mangini and company go and pull off one of the most surprising trades in recent Browns history. Surprising in the sense of timing, more than anything. Certainly, it was becoming clear that Braylon Edwards was not part [...]

After witnessing one of the most systematic Sunday afternoon destructions of the past decade, and based on the looming sense of frustration and slight contempt that I currently feel towards my beloved Browns, I feel it is only fitting to base my Week Three analysis upon the following mantra of ineptness…

While I’ve always held to the idea that the dead of the NFL offseason was the most depressing time of the calendar year, these past few days have forced me to adjust my thinking in a most sinister fashion. As the NFL has returned and the Browns still find themselves stuck in their traditional murky [...]

For one half at least, the Browns appeared to be among the doorstep of NFL legitimacy, challenging a solid Vikings squad with physical, aggressive play. While not exactly a finely tuned engine, the offense generated some movement on the ground, while the special teams again revealed themselves to be the team’s greatest weapon in this [...]
