Browns Film Breakdown: Wednesday Newsletter
Welcome to your weekly Wednesday Newsletter -- where we gather for the content that matters and deliver it fresh to your inbox.
I will never be able to get that commercial of the camel walking around the office noting to “Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike” that it is Hump Day. So, now you suffer the same fate with me.
It is indeed Wednesday. And man, a lot has happened in the past week. Mostly bad, right? But the Browns extended JOK and we think that is pretty cool. Unicorn defenders are our preferred type and JOK is just that.
Otherwise, on that downside of operations, we had a Battle of the Backups that Browns lost to Minnesota, the team has dealt with another rash of injuries impacting, but certainly not limited to, the tackle position. Quarterbacks could get traded, one deals with a sore shoulder, and another leads the best pre-game hype huddles known to man.
As always, and in unique fashion, we have you covered here at Browns Film Breakdown. 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.
For those new folks: 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.
