Yeah, getting Sean McDonough back and giving the NFL this guy is a big win for us.

Thus far, this booth is awful.  Tessitore sounds as self important as ever, Witten is a big nothing, then randomly some third guy will chime in by yelling nothing.

My wife didn’t appreciate it but I was telling her what a lousy crew that is for MNF.  Those guys should be doing Friday night AAC games.

But like ELA said, if it means getting McDonough back for college games I’ll take it.

Yeah, that's what I don't get.  Love them or hate them the MNF booths generally gave off big game vibes.  If you just had the audio on, like you said, you'd think it was for a Friday Night AAC game.

I usually have the video on and the audio off

MNF or AAC games

most of us on this board know more about football than the announcers

Browns winning w/ 2 min left. Mayfield looks really good. Also Hyde was a steal at 3yr/15M, thought he was very good at SF running w/ no OL and lousy QBs.

Mayfield looks the part. He is going to be much better than Sam Darnold. The hype on Darnold because the Jets beat the crappy Lions was getting out of hand. He's honestly not that good. Mayfield is much better.

Hue Jackson cost his team a shot at 3-0 by not starting Mayfield. The Browns might have the worst coaching staff in the NFL. Oh wait never mind. That honor goes to the Lions.

A 60 year old in a Kosar jersey fist fighting a 35 year old in a Manziel jersey for free Bud Light should be the official insignia for the city.

Very accurate. Very magical night in Cleveland. Since 1995, it's never really felt like the Browns were here. Last night, it felt like Cleveland got the Browns back.

Are the Browns maximizing Peppers this season, or is he still 20+ yards off the LOS?

They're keeping him closer to the line more often than not, but still some plays have him 20 yards off, which makes no sense. 
I still don't think he's a great punt returner. Even at Michigan, he had a tendency to call a fair catch when he had plenty of room. He's done that a few times this season as well.

He's bordering solid not spectacular,hasn't hurt the team with mistakes - a lot of their picks were nothing but mistakes.Like Mario said a few times he could have taken the rock and turned it up field.No biggie,as long as he's fundamentally sound

If the Browns win a football game on Thursday Night Football, does it make a sound?
