The Cleveland Browns, it's simple. If you talk to an older person who has been a die-hard Browns fan there whole life I guarantee they will say "Browns will Browns" and then can you tell stories after stories about pain and heartbreak, and I am already headed on the track someday. A lot of people think I just started watching the Browns recently when they became good, but to be honest I have liked all Cleveland sports since the age I can remember. Trust me, I vividly remember the Browns going 1-15 and 0-16 in back-to-back seasons but I have never lost faith, and I am glad I haven't.
I am glad I never lost faith when they had twenty quarterbacks in ten years because of how they are playing now. Baker Mayfield, Nick Chubb, Odell Beckham, Myles Garrett and many more all play for the Cleveland Browns, who in the world would have ever thought that? Not me. Last season, the Browns finished 12-6, including the playoffs where they beat the Pittsburgh Steelers in the 1st round and everyone loves to see that! Seeing the Browns make the playoffs last year and win a game gave me so much hope leading into this season and the future. Last Sunday the Browns opened up there season with a rematch versus the Kansas City Chiefs and I had been looking forward to this game since last season. I was counting down the days on my phone everyday and I couldn't stand how long the offseason took, it killed me. Like usual though, the Browns played great until the 4th quarter and the Browns did typical Browns things and ended up losing the game 33-29, enough to make a grown man cry.
0-1 is not a big deal especially when there is 16 games left, but when you are a life time Browns fan, you want every game to be win, especially with the talent they have now. This upcoming Sunday we play the Houston Texans and it should be a win and I am sure hoping it is a win too. Cleveland is a special city that just wants to see winning happen, so I sure hope it happens this year!
I am well aware of what browns fans these days have gone through. I am a lifetime browns fan and I also remember those seasons where we didn't win much or at all. Hopefully those days are behind us and we can start to focus on bigger and better things. I have high expectations for this browns team this year and I am very excited to see what all happens this season. Go Browns!
