  • Browns Flopping
    Browns Flopping By: Anthony Gedeon There has been a lot of buzz around the Cleveland Browns for the 2019 NFL season and a lot of people had high hopes for the team. However, as the season has gone on, the team and its fans are starting to lose hope in ever being good. The Browns are sitting at 4-6 currently in the season and people have a whole bunch of different opinions on what the Browns should do to turn it around. Freddie Kitchens, the rookie head coach of the Browns, is under heat as being one of the problems with the Browns. Most people were happy with the decision to make Kitchens the head coach, but as the year goes on many want to have him fired. This would just add to the Head Coach problems that Cleveland has been suffering from for years. Owen Reese, a die hard Browns fan calls him, “Flapjack Freddie” because “Freddie is a good guy, I just don’t think he is fit for the head coach position.” Reese is obviously not the only one to voice his opinion either, there is even a hashtag “#firefreddie” movement started on Twitter by an account named “Browns Country” that reports on all the Browns games and news. Although people are saying that Freddie is the main problem, others are saying that it is the team itself and the players are not playing well. The Browns are the most penalized team in the NFL with 75 penalties adding up to 631 lost yards so far in the season.
