Browns Film Breakdown: Wednesday Newsletter
Welcome to your weekly Wednesday Newsletter -- where we gather for the content that really matters.
A wise man once said:
“It’s Wednesday, my dudes.”
It is indeed Wednesday. And man, a lot has happened in the past week. Training camp returned to Berea, the team debuted a dramatic new vision for a domed stadium in Brook Park, and the Browns played their first preseason game, against the Packers.
It’s a lot to keep up with. And there’s a lot to keep up with over here at Browns Film Breakdown, too. Fortunately, we’ve got the Wednesday newsletter to keep you in tune with the best of what we’ve published so far this week, so you’re as plugged in as any Browns fan you know.
Every Wednesday, you’ll find links to the best stuff we’ve done in four different categories. We’ll start with Plays, a round up of the Film Rooms you need to watch from Sunday’s game. Then we’ll move to Audibles, highlighting the podcast episodes we think you need to catch up. Next up is Reads, gathering the articles from both us and elsewhere across the Internet you’ll want to digest. And finally, end with Chats, catching up on the best community discussions we’ve had this week.
Get it? Got it? Good. Let’s begin.
