Without ever having seen him or even hearing him speak, he seems like Clark Griswold’s boss on Christmas Vacation.

Better. But still not great. I feel like we’re seeing a ceiling to this team given its current makeup.

Nah. We didn’t mortgage our future for an overpaid, underachieving quarterback.

Don’t get me wrong. I’m conflicted by that info, too.

He was so annoying on the field. But I hear repeatedly that he is absolutely the nicest guy you’d ever meet.

We did enough to ourselves that it was difficult to overcome the inevitable bad call or two.

Starting QB out. Starting RB out. A gazillion penalties.

Losing the starting QB and RB have a ripple effect.

But really, since the prime of Marshawn, we’ve been good. Not great.

Since the prime of Lynch, we’ve been the same.

Good.

Not great.

I was at a Seahawks game in 2013 when they were in a pissing match with KC over loudest fans. Guinness was there. Meters on the Jumbotrons.

My ears rang for a week.

Without breaking out any advanced metrics, I’d guess that one reason Charb looks better because he’s getting more work later in the games, when the defenses are a little more worn down.

A few weeks back, he went on a thing about blimps. It was hilarious.

I’d love to find a snippet of it.

Best announcer in the game.

I have no idea why he’s not more prominent.

It keeps the streak alive of an NFL week with a cherry-picked stat never having ever happened happening.

When I was a kid, my dad had a trolling motor that got our aluminum fishing boat up to 2, maybe 2.5 miles per hour.

So, the bar is pretty high.

Ugly win, with bright spots.

Lockett was money, especially after getting his bell rung.

The Browns are definitely strong in the trenches. They’ve even turned Ethan Pocic into a pretty good center (which is better than the “sorta adequate” center that he was with us).
