The Rams fired their special teams coach in late November and lost in the NFC Championship game due to a special team's blunder. In that department they were no better than the Browns. So out of every coach available to them, they selected Vetrone. You do realize that you're not making any sense here don't you? I get it. We do have fans that think they know more than one of the most successful teams in the NFL over the past several years. But that math doesn't math. Bubba Ventrone was terrible at his job in Cleveland. The Browns special teams were as bad as the offense. Only the defense played well in 2025.

2026 NFL Salary Cap
YTownBrownsFan
01/31/26 02:22 AM
NFL salary cap set to exceed $300 million per team in 2026 as upward trend continues - CBS Sports https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/nfl-salary-cap-2026-season/Business is booming for the NFL. And if you need any evidence of that, just look at how rapidly the salary cap has increased over the last decade. Ahead of the 2026 season, the salary cap will break $300 million for the first time, NFL Network reported Friday, as the league's financial explosion continues. The NFL has informed its clubs that the 2026 salary cap will land anywhere between $301.2 million and $305.7 million next season. That will be an increase of more than $20 million from one season to the next, and that hasn't been unusual in recent years. The cap has increased nearly $100 million since 2022, when it was set at $208.2 million. Going back over a decade, the NFL salary cap has risen exponentially with the only period of contraction coming during the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2021, the cap dipped from $198.2 million to $182.5 million, but the numbers have ballooned in each subsequent season. You can thank the NFL's lucrative TV rights deals with its broadcast partners for these huge upticks, this trend doesn't seem like it'll stop anytime soon. This increase should only help teams who are up against a cap crunch, and it will provide more ammo to teams who already are loading up the money cannon in anticipation of free agency. Perhaps no one is happier about seeing the salary cap cross the $300 million mark than this year's crop of pending free agents, headlined by players like George Pickens and Trey Hendrickson who are set to command massive paydays.

It was the worst I can ever remember... and every time I thought I had seen the bottom of the barrel... it got even worse still. All metrics show that is true -- bottom five in NFL. He was the coach, so he SUCKED too. Sucked, sucked, sucked. Now you're trying to play Nostridumass because a good team picked him up. Predicting the future and acting like you're already right sucks too. Just. Stop. 🤣

Re: Todd Monken Hired as Browns HC

Something i found interesting and may help explain Monkin's feeling regarding the Browns QB situation......... Todd Monken confirms Shedeur Sanders-Ravens rumor in first meeting with Browns QB Months after the Cleveland Browns selected quarterback Shedeur Sanders in the fifth round of the 2025 NFL draft, a rumor surfaced that the Baltimore Ravens wanted to draft him. However, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter in September, that never came to fruition because Sanders told the Ravens he didn't want them to pick him with Lamar Jackson locked in as the team's starter. "But before the Ravens could turn in the card, the former Colorado star let it be known to Baltimore that he didn't want to be on a roster with Lamar Jackson, where he wouldn't have a chance to play anytime soon, league sources said," he reported. At least part of that report has now been confirmed, and it was confirmed by none other than former Ravens offensive coordinator and new Cleveland head coach, Todd Monken. Upon meeting Sanders for the first time in person since getting the job, Monken told the Colorado product that the Ravens "tried to draft your a** last year." Monken did not say anything about Sanders declining to go there, though. “We tried to draft your a** last year. It all worked out. Someday we’ll get a chance to talk about that," Monken told Sanders in a video posted by the Browns.
The fact that Monken was on the Ravens' staff suggests he was on board with picking Sanders and believes in him.
That's good news for the young quarterback, who will go into the 2026 offseason trying to cement himself as the long-term answer.As of right now, Sanders' biggest form of competition could be Deshaun Watson, who is under contract for one more season. Dillon Gabriel will likely get another look in a competition, also, but Sanders has the edge after surpassing him on the depth chart in 2025. We also wouldn't rule out the Browns bringing in another signal-caller to add to that group, so the starting situation is anything but settled in Cleveland. https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/todd-monken-confirms-shedeur-sanders-150011100.html

Re: Former CNN journalist Don Lemon arrested in connection with Minnesota protest

j/c:
A Federal Grand Jury indicting Lemon is the best thing for his career. He was essentially an irrelevant podcaster. Now, he'll get clicks/downloads/ etc. as a result of the indictment.
Money, money, money. MONEY! So you're saying trump's justice department is increasing his fame, enriching him and lining his pockets with cash? If that's true it just goes to show how truly stupid they must be.

The freedom of the press and the freedom to protest does not trump the freedom to worship. They have the freedom until it infringes on someone else's freedom. This is a very good thing!!! You may wish to use your brain to process things just a bit first. Not as if that's ever been one of your fortes'. Lemon wasn't there as a protestor. He wasn't acting as a protestor. He was tipped off that this was going to happen and went there as a member of the press to cover the protest. Nothing about the event would have been different whether he was there or not other than the fact it would not have been documented.

You seem more upset than someone's worship was momentarily interrupted and the interruption was recorded ... Than you do about citizens being shot.
Can't help wonder if you'd be so focal about Muslims being interrupted at worship. Or Hindu... Or ... Or ... Those that got shot put themselves in the way to get shot. That is on them. Those worshipping did not deserve to have their first amendment rights trampled on. Yes, I would expect worship of any religion to be strongly dealt with. That is a first amendment right to worship freely. It is the basic principle the founding fathers fought for and built the country around. I believe strongly that people have a right to protest. What these people are doing is not protest. I feel strongly that there is a right for a free press. But those rights do not and should never allow someone to use those rights to trample on someone else rights. That is what happened in this case.
