Jets #20 is a punk.
Kevin Greene is coaching for the Jets???
Thug Bowl...
This is painful.
Jets defense is shutting the Browns down until that pass.
Jerome Boger throws a Baker Mayfield flag for ratings.
He is 2 for 2 - Tyrod could only hope.
First half analysis:
Taylor is/was awful. Gawd-awful.
Does Hue have a MM-worthy stubborn streak?
I got a weird boxing vibe watching Taylor flounder, getting beat up every round, and taking longer and longer to get up each time he was knocked down.
Then it switched to rasslin' when Mayfield came in. Tagging the fresh man in, and he's going crazy slaughtering their opponents.
Not much of a football vibe either way. Imagine that....
Stupid question, but was that THE Joe Thomas during the halftime show?
I see CLE's turf is in midseason form.
Almost awesome EZ though.
Even if Cleveland goes 4 and 12, Baker is a blast.
Mayfield looks good. He’ll be wise to heavily study Drew Brees, a guy around his size who’s played a long time. Impressive debut so far, let’s hope he can pull this game out.
This is the best QB play I've seen from Cleveland since Bernie Kosar.
Awesome.... that was pretty good stuff for a Thursday night game. Just keep that QB healthy and the Browns have got something there.
Seemed like the Jets spent a week on coverage defense for Taylor and forgot the blitz package for Mayfield.
The best part is all the free beer vending machines have been emptied!

Wish them the best unless it screws the Pack.
Next Thur starts on Fox, eh?

This will make you sick. Browns drafted Shobert with the 99th selection, 1st in the 4th round. Guess who the Packers drafted in the 3rd, with the 88th selection? Kyler Fackrell. Thanks Ted.
But they did nab Martinez in R4 and he’s looking like a very good value selection now.
Fackrell was a pure miss - plain and simple
Ted’s 2015 draft was just awful
Why do I get the feeling MM could be HC of the Browns next year.
Props on the pithy title BK. If I could double like it, I would
I was expecting "Post-Packers vs. Post-Pettines".
In 9 months time there are going to be a whole lot of new babies in Cleveland named Baker.
Jets-Browns pulled in 8.6 million viewers and was NFL Network's highest rated and most watched Thursday night game since December of 2015.

I wonder how many were watching at kickoff and then at start of 3Q.

Ha ha. I said the same thing to my wife last night.
I really though Mayfield was gonna suck (he still might) but he looked great last night.
Great minds, huh? 
Mayfield just reminds me too much of your typical NFL journeyman. Great football mind, but his football tools are very average.

More than the Packers' TNF games? 
Not a Cleveland fan and was a skeptic when Browns drafted Bake #1 overall.
Then watched Hard Knocks and saw the dude has incredible leadership skills and intangibles. And pretty decent arm strength and touch on his passes. I’ll admit, I was a bit surprised. Sort of reminds me of a slightly less athletic version of Russell Wilson.
For once, maybe C Town got it right. It would be fun to see them get back to prominence. But it won’t be with Hue Jackson. He is not a good HC.
But just think, they could have drafted Barkley #1 and still got Mayfield with #3.
It was jets vs browns. Can you really determine if someone is a good player?

You sure about that??
I believe Giants would have drafted Mayfield. Then the Browns would've been stuck with $hitty Darnold & more terrible QB'ing.
I assure you, Eli ain't getting any younger & he's starting to suck. Giants GM Gettleman is pretty good. There's a reason Baker was drafted before Barkley & the Browns can get comparable results from Hyde or any number of RB's. Mayfield's arm talent is light years ahead of Darnold & that's something you cannot coach.
There's also a reason the Steelers won't pay Le'Veon - but that's another thread.
The first pass BM threw to Landry made me stand up out of my seat. I can't remember the last time I saw a Brown QB with that much zip on the ball.
